Sinéad O’Connor is an Irish singer-songwriter. Her debut album, The Lion and the Cobra, released in 1987, charted internationally, and her single “Nothing Compares 2 U”, released in 1990, was named the number one world single by the Billboard Music Awards.

Caused a huge international stir when she tore up a photograph of Pope John Paul II, live, on Saturday Night Live (1975) (on October 3, 1992), while shouting “Fight the true evil!” after singing an a capella version of Bob Marley’s “War”.

Almost immediately, NBC received over a thousand phone calls with complaints. NBC, to this day, refuses to ever reair the incident, and all subsequent reruns of that show have a pre-show recording of her singing the song.
