Sinead sang #NothingComparesToYou better than #Prince did.
And he said so.
#SineadOConnor was special...and I'm glad that I was around to see her from the beginning.
Worst/best part of getting older:
You've seen the best.
100% daughter of #Ireland

Soul music is not about "ooh, baby, baby."
And I know about soul music because I was born and grew up around where Sam Cooke sang...and #Prince knew that #Sinead had it in her, too-that's why she got his song.
But her voice was #Ireland right down to the ground.

Sinead O’Connor has died today.
She was fearless, outspoken, brave.
She was famous for calling out the roman Catholic Church for abuse of children and then ripping a photo of the pope at the time. This caused controversy at the time but she was right.
RIP #SineadOConnor

After a surreal few days, I’m delighted that we have navigated a way through this. I want to thank you all for the incredible support, particularly my colleagues at BBC Sport, for the remarkable show of solidarity. Football is a team game but their backing was overwhelming. 1/4

Everybody knows what Match of the Day means to me, but I’ve told the BBC I won’t be doing it tomorrow. Solidarity.
I'm on these podcasts pretending to know what I'm chatting about. First eps are about #AvatarTheWayOfWater , pop biopics, sports films, Christmas films and a 2022 end-of-year review.
Link in bio.

Today we remember Tony Hancock, whom we lost #OTD 25 June 1968. Best remembered for his BBC radio and TV shows from 1954 to 1961, over 160 episodes in all. We thank him and his writers, Ray Galton and Alan Simpson, for the wonderful comic legacy and the decades of laughter.

This happens to high-concept ideas. They work best with a finite narrative arc. But now that most of them are on TV rather than film, initial success leads to stretching the idea over many seasons, which means bringing in random beats nothing to do with the original concept.
