Sinéad O’Connor’s unreleased “The Magdalene Song” premiered Monday during the series finale of the BBC show “The Woman in the Wall.”
The series, which stars Ruth Wilson, follows a woman as she deals with long-lasting trauma that was inflicted on her by Ireland’s controversial Magdalene Laundries, a church-run home for unmarried pregnant women.
“Sinéad sanctioned the track for use before they had even started shooting, and when the producers heard it they were amazed to have something so strong,” recalled Holmes. “We all felt the only place this can go is at the end,” “In the lyrics Sinéad was trying to say, I think, that though she’d been through great turmoil, it would not stop her being who she wanted to be,” said Holmes. “She never really spoke about the meaning of her songs. She used to joke that she would often tell people that her songs were about something completely different to what they were about. But this one – well, it’s called ‘The Magdalene Song.
