Song title: Jealous
Artist: Sinead O'Connor
Year: 2000
Why I like this song:
R.I.P. Sinead O'Connor.
This is my favourite Sinead O'Connor song. Some might think it maudlin but it's one that resonated with me.
This came out in 2000 - the same year I had my first break-up. As such it was an instance I was VERY ill-prepared for so i played this song a lot.
Of course, in retrospect, it's not a moment to be proud of but I will say this: This song is a stunning display of vulnerability. Particularly in those last two lines which hits like a truck - even when uttered by a provocateur such as Sinead.
As for Sinead, well I hope that wherever she ended up, she found peace.
