    Just saw she passed today. "Nothing Compares 2 U"

    Not sure if I ever heard a second song, but what a hit she had. Sounds like she has dealt with Mental Health issues.

    RIP ...end of suffering, from everything I read about her she wasn't very happy and struggled with some heavy depression. I was never a huge fan of her music but she definitely left an impact with her work on her many fans. Seems she wasn't that old.

    Very sad. She lost her son last year. She has been through a lot in her life. May she rest in peace.

    It’s amazing that you can make an entire career by singing somebody else’s song. RIP to her.

    Sad to hear. Last time I heard her name in the news, her son died in a tragic way. He looked like her twin, that stuck with me for some reason. Never was a huge fan of her music, but I like it a bit. RIP



    Barely worth mentioning but I will: I'm Catholic (barely) and think her calling out sexual abuse and the vatican was very brave and proven correct by history.

    I really liked her version of Elton John’s “Sacrifice”:



    Gone too soon. RIP.
