And the child-like high pitch that she uses for that one word, "please", is heartbreaking. My favourite Sinead song is ‘Black Boys On Mopeds’ and it NEVER fails to make me tear up, especially this part:
Young mother down at Smithfield
5 am, looking for food for her kids
In her arms she holds three cold babies
And the first word that they learned was “please”
The emotion that she packs into those four short lines creates such a powerful image. And the child-like high pitch that she uses for that one word, “please”, is heartbreaking.

That one track is as haunting as anything I've heard myself since. You absolutely nailed that as a review of Sinead O’Connor.
