Morrissey is a shitbag, but he is unfortunately correct that a lot of people are throwing support Sinead's direction now that it's safe to do so.
He's just an absolutely terrible person, but he's not incorrect here. Many in the industry were happy to shun her to stay away from controversy until any support would come too late.

That happens when someone passes away all the time, though. It's all fun and games till someone dies isn't just an expression. Amy Winehouse, for instance, was the butt of drunk jokes and etc...then when she died, underappreciated genius. Which should have been the consensus long before. When you die, you're either absolved of anything bad or mockable, or the dirt starts to be dished out. There's no middle.

That's why Kris Kristofferson is a real one. He supported her from the beginning. "Don't let the bastards get you down."

RIP. Seemed like every girl I dated in the early 90s liked her and the 10000 Maniacs.

Although she was pretty much black listed by record labels and radio stations in the United States,
She did continue to have a good music career Internationally. Her 2000 album “Faith and Courage” being a personal favourite.
In 2003 I got excited cause she did some guest vocals on the Massive Attack album “100th Window” most notably the track “Special Cases” . And the group did a big Australian tour for the album and I was hoping Sinead would join the tour.. But not long before the tour started, band member 3D was investigated for having possession of child porn, his name was later cleared but the damage was done and with Sinéad being an outspoken advocate against child abuse was definitely not going to tour with them during this time.
