Sinéad O'Connor has been nominated to join the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
The Irish singer has been announced on a ballot alongside 14 other artists, including Mariah Carey, Oasis, Cher and Lenny Kravitz.
Her life, and a work as an activist, has been described by the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame as leaving "an indelible mark on the soul of popular music".
"With a distinctive multifaceted voice and a striking presence that challenged traditional views of femininity, O’Connor was ahead of her time expressing her unrepentant rage and sorrow over then-taboo subjects like women’s rights, organised religion, child abuse, and oppression".
John Sykes, Chairman of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Foundation, said "this remarkable list of Nominees reflects the diverse artists and music that the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame honors and celebrates".
The winners will be announced in late April.
