Rememberings by Sinéad O'Connor

dark emotional funny hopeful inspiring reflective sad fast-paced

5.0

Really gorgeous and definitely benefits a lot from listening to Sinéad’s own voice narrating it. Hearing her still able to laugh and giggle and reflect after all she’s been through was just such a lovely experience and I’m glad I got to hear her story in her own words. The ending feels bittersweet now hearing how hopeful she was about her new album and touring again after COVID completely shut everything down. Some highlights are definitely her story about meeting (and having a crush on) a tour guide she met in Lourdes as a young girl and how she’s able to look back now at the abuse she endured at the hands of her mother and no longer feel rage but instead compassion for her mother’s mental illness.
