  • Troy ist ein Lied von Sinéad O’Connor, das 1987 als Debütsingle von ihrem ersten Album The Lion and the Cobra erschienen ist. Die in Titel und Liedtext genannte, zerstörte antike Stadt Troja (englisch: Troy) kann als Metapher für das im Lied wütend beklagte Ende einer Liebesbeziehung gedeutet werden. Andere Quellen sehen das Lied als Auseinandersetzung mit ihrer Mutter, die 1985 bei einem Autounfall ums Leben kam. 2002 erschien die CD Troy (The Phoenix from the Flame), die zehn unterschiedliche Remixes des Stücks von anderen Künstlern enthielt.

  • Troy is een nummer van de Ierse zangeres Sinéad O'Connor. Het is het zesde nummer van haar album uit 1987. Dat najaar werd het nummer uitgebracht als de eerste single van het album. Troy is officieel de debuutsingle van O'Connor, alhoewel ze een jaar eerder al wel het nummer opnam voor de soundtrack van de film met U2-gitarist The Edge. De plaat werd opmerkelijk genoeg alleen een hit in Nederland en Vlaanderen. (nl)
