"Three Babies" is a song by Irish singer-songwriter Sinéad O'Connor, released as the third single from her second studio album, I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got (1990), in October 1990.

[3] Dave Jennings from Melody Maker named it Single of the Week, writing, "Admittedly, "The Emperor's New Clothes" was a little shapeless, but this solemn beauty demands respect.

"[4] Duncan Holland from Music Week commented, "A ballad, with strings attached, gives no doubt about the sincerity involved, but fails to make that vital step from being a good LP track to a valid single.

"[9] In a 2015 retrospective review, Pop Rescue wrote that it gives O'Connor "another place to show off her wonderfully soft vocals and harmonies."

The reviewer added, "At times her vocals remind me a bit of Enya, and this aided by the wash of strings that swell throughout".
