In this episode, we dive into the fascinating story behind Sinead O'Connor's iconic ballad "Nothing Compares 2 U". Originally written by Prince in just under an hour, the song didn't quite fit with his image at the time and was instead recorded by a group called The Family.

It wasn't until Sinead O'Connor's hauntingly beautiful rendition in 1990 that the song became a massive hit, topping charts around the world.

We explore the emotions and experiences that inspired the song's lyrics, as well as the cultural and political impact it had in the early 90s. Join us as we unravel the mystery behind one of the greatest love songs of all time.
