The reason the golden woman is in the video is because in the original Cranberries music video Dolores was wearing the same sort of outfit and gold body paint. The glass pane separating them is representative of her passing away and being separated from us since. At least that's the only reasonable interpretation in to my mind. Great reaction as usual Rachel :)

@jrogersdal 9 ай бұрын

I read somewhere that when the actress playing Delores came onset wearing the gold paint the band had a very emotional reaction.

@Jdglobeskater 10 ай бұрын

So their cover is coming, purely, from a place of respect for her: obviously they wanted her on the "cover" and that unfortunately did not happen due to the terrible circumstances. They did what they could without her. You also have to remember the song itself comes from a place of unrest between Northern Ireland and The Repulic of Ireland, which is still prevalent to this day, but not taught in US schools nor is it really talked about much around the world, but children died because of this futile feud between two religions... Bad Wolves are working backwards from a place of little knowledge and no personal stakes in the topic, while also trying to pay due to a very prominent figure in Irish culture, and I think they did a very good job at it.

@proteusblack8913 10 ай бұрын

This was their spin on it. The heavier tone, the different key, the solo, and the lyrics are even updated for the recent era of warfare. This cover is mind blowing because the heavy tone as well as their performance in the video is their genuine emotional expression of just how much Delores meant to them and by proxy to us. I'm wondering if we're watching the same video here...

@vagabond142 9 ай бұрын

The band was actually at the studio in America, while Dolores was supposed to show at a studio in London and have a video call with between the two, when the news of her passing came through. They immediately did the final round of vocals, to cover the parts where her vocals would have been, including the first verse, and then mastered it and released the single that same day. In the first verse, you can absolutely hear how Tommy (the vocalist at the time) was pained by the news, and while his voice is steady, if you listen super closely to the line "but you see, it's not me," his voice wavers ever so slightly, and I personally think it adds so much more to the song that he was singing while in pain. Makes it hit so much harder.

i was a teenager when the original version came out. at the time i was a die hard metalhead. but something about her voice caught me and ulimately brought me to explore other genre of music. her voice was one of a kind. the song, powerful. this song brings me back to those years and hold a place deep down.

@TomTomson81 10 ай бұрын

I don't know if you've seen the original music video, but in this one Dolores was the golden woman. Here, the golden woman represents Dolores. She stands on the other side of the glass wall, she is unreachable. A beautiful and sad metaphor in the video. You talk all the time about how they should have had a spin in the song. Have you been listening? The whole song is musically different from the original. The original one was punk rock and this one is metal. In addition, lyrics were changed. The song was brought into the year 2018 and drones were edited to it. I don't know what you want more. It's become a completely different genre.

Interesting fact: the singer was sacked some time later because he had controversial political opinions, this was deemed to be possibly damaging to the band.

@TheChristianDeca 9 ай бұрын

IMHO the two versions are on different levels: the original was the song of a mother and her pain for the loss of her children (the song was written after the death of 2 children in an attack), I see this version as the a young man's anger at seeing that despite all the progress, humanity is unable to find peace

She drowned in the bathtub. The world definitely lost amazing singer when she passed. But bad wolves do a really good job.

I think exactly the same than you. I read that there was some different points of views in the band for the rendition of this cover/hommage. But the fact that Dolores passed away the day she had to sing with them may have impacted the final result to transform this cover in hommage with maybe less variation than they thought at start. But it just my personal interpretation.

One has to remember - it was going to be sung with Dolores right up to the day she died/it was recorded. Changing it was too late and, realistically would have been really disrespectful. There's a moment when covers are planned from the ground up to be different - this wasn't it.

@sonofthesea3298 9 ай бұрын

Oh brainflash! Since you did this amazing cover (not gonna go into all the details and backstory,as others has done it) Did you know that they have one of the best duets made in Rock/Metal history? Diamante (with all blue hair,like Alissa White Gluz) has been a bestie with pretty much the entire band for years,she can be spotted in at least 1 of theyr music videos backstage with them. They were/still are under the same label (Better Noise Music),and Diamante is technically a solo artist,but she has her own rock band with her on tour,and in some of her music videos. And i fell in love with her voice from the first time i heard her voice,and the first time i heard her,was singing a duet with Tommy Vext from Bad Wolves. I discovered her through Bad Wolves basically. She makes what she calls Glam Rock,and shes a natural stunner of a beauty. The song in question is possibly the best harmonizing voices you have heard in a LONG time: Bad Wolves - Hear Me Now feat. DIAMANTE (Official Video)

the original vocals are very sad with alot of pain and the bad wolves one is kinda more a anger caused by what happens cause the world still has these kind of events happening. on the other hand the drums on this version are still very sad sounding. like the original. i think this version hits very hard. imagine if Dolores was also on the track you would have the mix of the anger and saddness in 1.

@BlueJeiVA 4 ай бұрын

Like you, the original is incomparable; untouchable. Updating "and their -- tanks, bombs, bombs, guns" to "tanks, bombs, guns, drones" does make it more relevant to today, but doubling "bombs" was so impactful. I do think "Same old thing in 2018" and the screaming on "Zombies" were good changes to make it a tribute without sacrificing so many lyrics for change that it disrupted the message.

Directed by Mark Romanek, who also did the video for Closer, amongst other iconic music videos for other groups, as well as some great feature films like One Hour Photo. I'm Afraid of Americans is another great music video, which was shot in the late 90's but is now available in super sharp 4k. Trent and David Bowie.
