Agreed! The song is totally overwhelming, and the video was inspired by the director taking the camera out onto the streets and just filming what they saw for a day and then working around that. I always feel that this is one of the finest examples of how great artists can create beauty from pain and darkness...

I can't begin to comprehend what it must have been like living through The Troubles. My experience of that time was from the eyes of a very young boy, and all via the news from the safety of my home in England. My late father in law was an Military Policeman in the British Army. So I guess that put him in the strange position of being hated by The Irish, and by the British soldiers he had to police. Even I find this song moving, What must it be like for those, like you, who really understand it from the heart!

I lived in England during those times and we looked on in horror. Every now and then a bombing such as Warrington occurred, and that brought it home once again how tragic and sickening the whole thing was. I cannot imagine what it was like for you. I hope you've managed to create a happy life in spite of the trauma of it all. Let's hope that the relative peace in NI can continue, and we can all learn to live together harmoniously. RIP Dolores.

What Delores is doing with her voice is called keening (crying/wailing) done at wakes and gravesites to show grief to bereaved families. Fits in perfectly with this song.

@davewildermuth7519 3 жыл бұрын

As many have pointed out, this song is about Ireland. One reason Delores O'Riordan's voice is so distinctive is that she draws on a traditional Irish singing style called "keening." When her voice sort of flips into falsetto at the end of vowel sounds, that's one of its characteristics.

@Yaro79514 Жыл бұрын

I didn't know that even though I grew up with this song and I'm part Irish! Thx so much for that! Also, I knew 'keening' as a form of lament but didn't know it was also a style of singing, I suppose like wailing, this brings another dimension to the song!

Wow thanks for the info I didn’t know it was a traditional vocal style, every day is a school day…keening. Didn’t she do it brilliantly.

What a waste, all those lost in the troubles and Delores herself!❤

"Dreams and "Linger" should be next. Delores sang using an Irish Style called Keening. It's how Irish Women sing in mourning and in paying honour to those lost tragically. This song is very serious, dark and sad. There is no way to dance, bop or celebrate to this song once you understand what she's singing about. There was a bombing. It was done in such a way that people ran towards the danger after misleading calls were made to the authorities. A toddler out shopping with his sitter died. They bombed a shopping district at a busy time during a normal week day. It was awful. Religion and Politics over the safety of children.

The song was written in response to the death of Johnathan Ball, 3, and Tim Parry, 12, who had been killed in the IRA bombing in Warrington, northwest England, when two devices hidden in litter bins were detonated. Ball died at the scene of the bombing as a result of his shrapnel-inflicted injuries and, five days later, Parry lost his life as a result of fatal head injuries. 56 others were injured, some seriously. Parry died in his father's arms in Liverpool's Walton hospital. The two boys had gone shopping to buy Mother's Day cards on one of the town's busiest shopping streets.

Although this is a very well played and sung song, it's another ballad type that deals with the troubles in Ireland. These guitar 🎸 notes are box strumming with some vibration tossed in. The drumming is spot on, not too much, nor too little, but precise in every stroke. Listen how the base/bass guitar is playing really fast, but not destroying the beat.. This is a heck of a lot of music and well executed. The perfect hard rock song.

Song has a very special place in my heart. I was young, and so often you'd get bomb threats, or your town centre flattened by a nail bomb, and I just couldn't understand why the Irish wanted to kill us. This song made my 7 year old self realise that they didn't.

I almost got through this without crying. Almost. I don't know how anyone can hear a song desperately decrying war, senseless violence, massacres, and the murder of children, and NOT be emotional 😢

My first experience hearing them on the original Charmed show! That song was about her father, so sad she committed suicide

Please do the Bad Zombies cover of this! like many have already mentioned, it was supposed to be a colab with her before she tragically passed away, so they did it as a memorial to her and it does not disappoint!

This one hits real hard. The collateral damage of war, in this specific case two young boys who died in a bombing during the Troubles in Northern Ireland. Bad Wolves did a tribute version of this that you might want to check out.

They were killed on mainland UK Warrington by an IRA bomb whilst The Cranberries were on tour in England, this inspire Delores to write this masterpiece. RIP beautiful Lady and thank you for the music. Your wonderful Irish Brogue lives on. ❤

@Jeffrey dahmer vs Ted bundy the song you are correct, Zombie by the cranberry’s was written about to young lads killed by a bomb on the UK mainland. She the singer Delores said this.

Hate breeds hate. The next generation raised without thinking why or a different solution - like Zombies. Now, I love the Cranberries and I always felt that her voice was like another instrument as she uses it to not just say lyrics.

This song is intense. And ironically, it’s even more intense when Dolores sings softly and with deep breaths. The weight of her expression is palpable. And the fact that her Irish accent really comes through shows how much she sings from her heart. It’s a an anti-war song that will always remain timeless. Three hundred years from now people will still listen to ‘Zombie’. RIP Dolores.

Has to be one of the best anti war songs of all time - so poetic.

The Cranberries are awesome. This song is great. Please react to Linda Ronstadt next Friday or any day. She has the voice of an angel. She was the first female to sell out arenas. Her catalogue is extensive and spans forty years. I suggest “Long Long Time” or “Someone to Lay Down Beside Me”. Love your channel. 🥰

Since you reacted to the original please react to the tribute cover by Bad Wolves of Zombie. Read the back story as to how this cover/tribute came to be and the events that led up to it. Heartbreaking and beautiful in the same breath.

When this song first came out...i just remember thinking it was a kickass song i loved, never gave much thought to the lyrics or video. Now that I'm in my 50s, i can't watch this video without crying. Now i understand it 😢
