Miley Cyrus teamed up with Brittany Howard to cover "Nothing Compares 2 U," the hit made famous by Sinéad O'Connor, on Sunday's SNL50 special.

Miley Cyrus teamed up with Brittany Howard to cover “Nothing Compares 2 U,” the Prince-written hit made famous by Sinéad O’Connor, on Sunday night’s (Feb. 16) SNL50: The Anniversary Special. While O’Connor was a two-time musical guest on SNL, the late Irish singer never performed her biggest hit on the sketch comedy show; “Nothing Compares 2 U” spent four weeks at No. O’Connor performed on SNL in 1992, when she covered Bob Marley’s song “War” a cappella and held up a photo of then-Pope John Paul II at the end and tore it in half after singing altered lyrics about child abuse.
