Written by Prince as a side project, “Nothing Compares 2U” shares Sinead‘s despair and upset about being abandoned by her lover. The video itself consists of a close-up headshot of Sinead singing the song, intercut with scenes of her walking through the Parc de Saint-Cloud in Paris, with two tears falling down her face towards the song’s end, as she releases her emotions in the lyrics. At the time, the video was stood out amongst the typical high production videos other ballads of the era got, with Sinead stating in interviews that the emotion she channeled in the video were authentic and brought on by the thought of her mother, who died in a car accident in 1985.
