第一次聽到這首歌是在國中的時候由Sinead O'connor所唱,那時電視不停的播放這首MV,最讓我印象深刻的是Sinead O'connor 的光頭造型冷豔叛逆,獨特唱腔讓烏拉拉在10多年後聽來,依舊喜愛不已。Nothing Compares To You 原本Prince在1985左右寫給The Family樂團,後來1990年Sinead O'connor重新翻唱而爆紅。這幾年好事連播網以Jimmy Scott所唱藍調版當成台歌,另有一番深層風味

Nothing Compares to You
It's been seven hours and fifteen days
Since you took your love away
I go out every night and sleep all day
Since you took your love away
Since you been gone I can do whatever I want
I can see whomever I choose
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
But nothing
I said nothing can take away these blues
Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
It's been so lonely without you here
Like a bird without a song
Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
Tell me baby where did I go wrong
I could put my arms around every boy I see
But they'd only remind me of you
I went to the doctor n'guess what he told me
Guess what he told me
He said girl you better try to have fun
No matter what you do
But he's a fool
Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
All the flowers that you planted, mama
In the back yard
All died when you went away
I know that living with you baby was sometimes hard
But I'm willing to give it another try
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
