Sinéad O'Connor gets booed off stage and leaves in tears.

They may protect their superstitions no matter what, but nothing compares to the truth. Please read the text in the video for more context. I really recommend it, especially before leaving a comment. The first clip is from the "Saturday Night Live" performance on 3 October 1992, nearly a decade before the world became fully aware of the prolific sexual abuse of children in the Catholic Church. Questioning the role of the Church in condoning and covering up child abuse. She tore up a photograph of Pope John Paul II to protest against the abuse. The second clip is from Sinéad O'Connor's performance from Bob Dylan's "The 30th Anniversary Concert Celebration," released in recognition of Bob Dylan's 30 years as a recording artist on October 16, 1992, at Madison Square Garden in New York City, where many different artists performed classic Dylan songs, also available as a live double album. She was supposed to sing "I Believe in You" before being booed off the stage. Here's a link to the rehearsal version of the song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2C7tAp5X6Zo The text in the video and description is copied from Wikipedia and has been edited a little.
