OK, I've given 5* because this is now the go to version but there is still one small error. In the first chorus only there is a variation D# Bb 'cos nothing compares D# Bb C nothing compares 2 U. instead of D# Bb 'cos nothing compares Dm C nothing compares 2 U. in all the other choruses

+13

RIP.Sinéad.play this song.

It would make more sense to the key and be less confusing to transpose if you wrote the D# as an Eb.
