    "comment": "On this day in 1990, Sinead O'Connor started a four week run at No.1 on the US singles chart with her version of the Prince song 'Nothing Compares To You'.\n\nO'Connor said that the tears in the gorgeous video were real. She didn't expect to cry, but then thought, \"I should let this happen.\" She explained that the tears came after thinking about her mother, who died in a car accident in 1985.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-EF60neguk",
