VIDEO: Sinéad O’Connor has paid tribute to David Bowie in fantastic fashion

Colm Boohig

This is brilliant.

The loss of David Bowie is still being felt around the world, particularly in music circles, and now our very own Sinéad O’Connor has paid her own special tribute.

The likes of Dave Grohl and Lorde have already performed brilliant renditions of some Bowie classics since his passing, but O’Connor’s effort may even be the best yet.

The ‘Nothing Compares To You’ star was at the Metro in Chicago and sang beautiful versions of ‘Life on Mars’ and ‘Sorrow’, while being supported by the great man’s cover band, Sons of the Silent Age.

Have a look and a listen here, because it really is excellent.
