Sinéad O'Connor On 3 October 1992, O'Connor appeared on Saturday Night Live as a musical guest. She sang an a cappella version of Bob Marley’s "War", intended as a protest against sexual abuse in the Catholic Church—O'Connor referred to child abuse rather than racism.[36] She then presented a photo of Pope John Paul II to the camera while singing the word "evil", after which she tore the photo into pieces, said "Fight the real enemy", and threw the pieces towards the camera.[37]
Photograph (Ed Sheeran song) The lyrics to the song chronicle a long-distance relationship.[13] It contains detailed imagery such as the protagonist remembering his girlfriend kissing him "under the lamppost, back on 6th street",[13][14] and keeping a picture of him "in the pocket of [her] ripped jeans".[15] These lyrics were inspired by Sheeran's own experience on a long-distance relationship. He dated Nina Nesbitt,[4] a Scottish singer/songwriter, for more than a year. While on this relationship, Sheeran spent five months away from Nesbitt: three months while on a concert tour with Snow Patrol and further two months on his own tour. At his concert in Kansas City on 29 June 2017, Sheeran noted that he wrote the song Photograph at Kansas City's Intercontinental Hotel during a previous tour. [7]
