Sinéad O’Connor estate calls on Donald Trump to stop using her music

Singer ‘would have been disgusted, hurt, and insulted’ at her version of Nothing Compares 2 U being used at rallies

It said O’Connor, who died last July aged 56, lived by a “fierce moral code” and had previously referred to Trump as a “biblical devil”. The statement said: “Throughout her life, it is well known that Sinéad O’Connor lived by a fierce moral code defined by honesty, kindness, fairness, and decency towards her fellow human beings. O’Connor follows on from a long list of artists who have demanded Trump desist from using their music for his political campaigns including The Smiths’ Johnny Marr, Rihanna, Neil Young, Linkin Park, the late Tom Petty and Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler.
