I’ve been aware of her since she was the background singer for World Party. And that ages me, I know.
Also her first album was The Lion and the Cobra, NOT the one with Nothing Compares 2 U, as the media keeps reporting. And that first album is pretty much an under-appreciated masterpiece.
She was so mistreated by the media and the world, man.
Such a fucking shame :(
RIP
And that first album is pretty much an under-appreciated masterpiece.
Indeed! Her love versions of “Troy” give me the chills. It’s a good song on record but her intensity of the live performances lifted it into legend territory.
Edit: spelling (two words).
Has she been ill? I haven’t heard anything…
She’s struggled with her mental health for a long time.
Estate isn’t saying but she’s had a public struggle with extreme depression following the death of her son.
