O'Connor, Sinead - Scarlet Ribbons Lyrics

💗🙏💗🙏💗

Sinead ruins every song she covers, with the possible exception of songs by Prince. She almost managed not to ruin this one. Almost.

I don't know why but this song makes me feel really sleepy

I’m here from the Royle family

Beautiful this song

RIP Edward Doherty Victim Of The Ballymurphy Massacre

Makes me think of my nan who sadly passed away just before Xmas 22nd December 2017 she passed away early hours that day. Life will never be the same without her but I have hope I will see her on that rainbow bridge one day RIP Vera Robins xx

This sucks. Virtually all other versions are vastly superior!

Such a beautiful song

'i'd give all the money in the world just to have one more row with that woman.'

Queen of sheba beautiful x

Utterly breathtaking

Sinead O'Connor would be a good Titanic overture .

Me. Couldn't grieve for my dad. Got ill and crippled and then I heard this and fell apart - and healed,;

Rest in peace Nana and Denise we will always miss you 🙏❤

Eleanor Sheeh I sat and bawled my eyes out watching the Queen of Sheba episode last night

night night nana Liz Smith 1921-2016

Rest in peace Nana Caroline will be there to meet you 😢😢😢

rest well Liz Smith. thank you for Nanna

And Caroline Aherne, for Denise <3

And Geoffrey Hughes for good old Twiggy.😪

i peeked in to say goodnight
And I heard my child in prayer
"And for me some scarlet ribbons
Scarlet ribbons for my hair"
All the stores were closed and shuttered
All the streets were dark and bare
In our town, no scarlet ribbons
Scarlet ribbons for her hair
Thru the night my heart was aching
Just before the dawn was breaking
I peeped in and on her pillow
On her pillow lying there
Lovely ribbons, scarlet ribbons
Scarlet ribbons for her hair
If I live to be a hundred
I will never know from where
Came those ribbons, scarlet ribbons
Scarlet ribbons for her hair

My mother sang this to us every Christmas Eve when she was tucking us into bed, she was always trying to re-assure us that Santa would indeed come down that chimney and leave something special under the tree for us xxx

im not really a fan of sinead o connor but her voice on this song is just stunningly beautiful. best version

Just watched the Queen of Sheba, where this song was used so beautifully. RIP Caroline Ahern and Geoffrey Hughes, both taken by cancer.

she sings it with such beauty

Reminds me of my grandma😪

this brings back lovely memories of my late mother singing this.rip sinead sings this beautiful

Angela o neill same here.

i can sort of understand why people say this depressing. But I just think it is so soothing and beautiful. There are some songs which can move you and take you to particular place. For me this is one of them

Listen to Roy Orbison's version, way better.

Bubble my bloody eyes out every time I watch that episode!!!

Queen of bloody sheba!!!

Who's here because of The Royle Family?Saddest episode of any tv programme i've ever seen!

Philip Dwyer I am as I'm a huge fan of the Royle family I watched that Christmas special and it was so sad I cried so badly but the show did choose a good song so the family can say goodbye to nana R.I.P Liz Smith

Philip Dwyer me....just wiped a tear away..

and me just watched on Gold

yes mate just watched it again and wondered who sang it .... very emotional

Can't count the amount of times I been to a funeral and this played what a sad song beautifully sung x

Ben là. You cut off the uillean pipes at the end ! That's the best part !

...and in time longer grows the list of those this song reminds me of and my heart is aching for them through the night from time to time...beautiful rendition of a beautiful song.I am sure there must be a deeper meaning to it to Sinead the way she sings it-it has to me.Thank you for sharing with us.

This always reminds me of the Royle Family Episode The Queen Of Sheba! One of the saddest songs and episodes of anything I have ever seen/heard.

Me too! So so sad! :(

its the only ep of the royle family i cant watch over nd over again. Its to sad 😢😢

'ALL BOW DOWN TO THE QUEEN OF SHEBA!' I'm sorry but it really is sad.

Sinead o connor combs her hair and pulls her knickers up

Im Going Through It :\

Haha Same

Scarlet Ribbons - music by Evelyn Danzig, lyrics by Jack Segal, 1949.

This is fucking suicidal, i love my music, but the depressing character singing does not help.

oh man, miss you Richard.

I needed to get the emotions out for a crying-fest, so I clicked on this song, I miss you so much May-Bell, I just guess that the cancer was to strong this time.. :'(

I am so sorry for your loss...but she is still in your heart...forever...I lost my husband last month...and he played this song for me, since we were 8 years old...I turned 60 three days after he passed...My first birthday without him since I was 8...I love this song also...xoxo

Sooo Beautiful Tender Words.... and I Feel something of the same <3

My mum used to sing this to us 6 children and I sang it to my 3 children and now sing it to my 5 grand children...This version moves me tears..So beautiful. Thankyou

iv always loved this song and sinead does it the way it shud b sung

The Royal Family (tv show) brought me here! love it, so sad <3

how can anybody dislike this song :( its beautiful <3

This always reminds me of my mum. She's always singing this to me ever since I was a little girl.

I remember watching the Queen of Sheeba and it was just after my nan had died... I was sobbing when I heard this!

This always reminds me of my nan. She's always singing this to me ever since I was a little girl. It's so beautiful and makes me sob too.

this song makes me think of my 8 year old cousin who's just beaten cancer. I was so scared i was going to loose her and when she beat it i have never been so happy and relieved, this song reminds me of all the pain i went through thinking i was going to loose her. Now she's better and hopefully will live a long and happy life, Olivia-Here's to you! I love you <3

The most beautiful song ever recorded

@niloncita92 My mum sang it to me and my sister when we were infants. If I sing it to my sister: tears. Her version was a bit less epic and Celtic than Sinead's.
