Dubliners remember Sinead O'Connor at 'Wall of Fame' in Temple Bar

Dubliners gathered at the Irish Rock ‘n’ Roll Museum’s Wall of Fame in Temple Bar on Thursday, July 27, to pay tribute to singer-songwriter and activist Sinead O’Connor, who died on Wednesday aged 56. Born in Dublin, O’Connor started her career busking on city streets before breaking out with her Grammy-nominated 1987 album The Lion and the Cobra. She rose to mainstream fame with her 1990 cover of Prince’s Nothing Compares 2 U and made headlines after tearing up a photo of the pope to protest child abuse committed and covered up by the Catholic Church during a Saturday Night Live performance in 1992.
