Great reaction. Probably already been said, but Dolores wrote this after two young boys were killed my home town of Warrington. I was there with my own kids just the day before. The inflection in her voice is called ‘keening’ and is used at Irish funerals. RIP Johnathan, Tim and the wonderful Dolores.

The Cranberries are absolutely one of the best bands to come out of the 90's. Dolores wrote this song in response to the death of Johnathan Ball, 3, and Tim Parry, 12, who were killed in the IRA bombing of Warrington, northwest England. Two devices hidden in litter bins were detonated Johnathan Ball died at the scene of the bombing, five days later Tim Parry lost his life as a result of head injuries. Their were 56 others were injured on that day. It was only after the death of Dolores O'Riordan in 2018 that Colin Parry (Tim's Father) found out the song was about his son.

The unrecoverable, lasting pain and sorrow that comes with the loss of a child will never be assuaged by any cause, no matter its desire to be regarded as just or righteous, that was directly involved in the death of that child. The organization that was behind the deliberate planting of the bomb that took the life of that child, did they confer with the parents of that child beforehand to see whether they were willing to sacrifice that child for that organization's most righteous cause? ... or did they simply just not give a f*ck? ... I think it the latter! ... after all, the children were just collateral damage ... were they not? ... I mean, it was a state of war ... wasn't it? ... and in a state of war, all things are permitted ... aren't they? ... just ask Russia, NATO and the United Nations! ... all, all, all is permitted and seemingly condoned!

First off, sorry some gave you grief about not knowing the Cranberries. I give mad credit to the Bad Wolves for their tragic by triumphant tribute to the memory of Dolores O’Riordan. Back when I was in college I heard what I still consider the most beautiful and haunting voice coming down the hallway from my dorm. I followed it to a room where some of the guys in my dorm were listening to the Cranberries’ “Linger.” I stood at the open doorway jaw dropped as the guys listening to the band’s CD for the first time sat transfixed. After the track ended I asked the guys who was singing and they showed me the CD. I got on my bike immediately and ride to the record store to by The Cranberries’s CD “Everyone Else Is Doing It, So Why Can’t We.” I played it over and over again that week, I was so enchanted with Dolores O’Riordan’s soulful brogue; it was truly the first, and last, time I fell in love with a celebrity. Unfortunately I never got to see The Cranberries live in concert. I have a picture of Dolores hung in my room next to photos of the two other musicians I most admire, Tom Petty and Cyndi Lauper. Dolores’ singing in The Cranberries’ “Zombie” is so incredibly iconic. I’m actually glad you saw the Bad Wolves version first. It was fantastic in itself, but it also got you to react to the version I hold most dear to my heart, the original sung by Dolores O’Riordan, my she rest in glory.

I don’t agree with that line of thought at all. No song is untouchable but if you’re gonna cover it whether that’s with your own style or being faithful to the original it better be good. I never cared for Nirvana’s “Something In the Way” yet people love it and see it as one of their most iconic songs but Avatar made a cover of it and it’s so much better. They rarely ever do covers and it’s their only studio cover but they definitely did it justice. Bad Wolves did great on their cover of “Zombie” but it’s not as good as the original. There’s cases for both.

The song was written after an ira bomb killed 2 children, it was a protest song against the pain suffering and death caused by all sides during the troubles in Northern Ireland. You don't understand that or at least that's the impression I got from you and that's OK, that's the point, the point of peace was so that the generations that came after don't ever have to know that pain and misery. And if you don't then the comprises all sides made for peace were absolutely worth it. But we can't forget thats the key, because when we forget the risk of falling back becomes greater.

One of my favorite reactors listens to the song, and after speculating on the meaning of the song, he uses Song Facts to study the lyrics, and he shares this with us. He reads a stanza of the lyrics, then reads what Song Facts says about it. It really makes a very interesting reaction. It's much more interesting than the usual (usually male) reactor who wants to show off his knowledge, leaving me to wonder how he knew so much about a song he never heard before. Hmmm. People in the comments will tell you that the yodel that Delores does in the song is Keening. It is not. It is a yodel distinctive to the Irish. Keening is a wailing and crying performed by professional mourners at funerals centuries ago, based on the folk tales of Banshees, who flew round and round a house where someone was dying, wailing and crying.

Thank you VERY much for doing this! I really wish she could have been in the remake - it is SO sad (everything - the fact that she's gone and the fact that nothing has changed regarding what's happening in the world.)

Delores ( R.I.P ) spent much of her life crusading for the rights and lives of all children.......this was her plea for peace during the "Troubles" in Northern Ireland and especially for the lives of children who found themselves caught in the violence.....

The “Troubles” didn’t seem to be able to end (Die), hence Zombie. The kids naturally always play adulthood and are imprinted by their environment . Is it still alive in your head? It’s left scars on mine. Maybe we are still making a mistakes.

I think there are many 1st time reactions channels that do lie so I can see people becoming cynical. But you seem honest about it all. Just be honest and you will be okay. There will always be haters.

The duality of the lyric "Zombie". The Soldiers who follow leaders, like Zombies, mindlessly killing anyone labeled 'enemy'. Then the Mothers/Fathers/Family/People who witness the slaughter/death becoming emotional Zombies to numb the immeasurable pain.

That’s not the meaning at all,it was written about an IRA car bomb in Warrington,England that killed two schoolchildren….here’s what Delores said about why she wrote the song. “There were a lot of bombs going off in London and I remember this one time a child was killed when a bomb was put in a rubbish bin -- that's why there's that line in the song, 'A child is slowly taken,'" O'Riordan told Songwriting Magazine. "We were on a tour bus and I was near the location where it happened, so it really struck me hard - I was quite young, but I remember being devastated about the innocent children being pulled into that kind of thing. So I suppose that's why I was saying, 'It's not me' - that even though I'm Irish it wasn't me, I didn't do it. Because being Irish, it was quite hard, especially in the UK when there was so much tension." She told Vox magazine in 1994 that the song was written in part as a mechanism to grapple with her identity as an Irish citizen that did not support the actions of the IRA. "The IRA are not me. I'm not the IRA. The Cranberries are not the IRA. My family are not. ... When it says in the song, 'It's not me, it's not my family,' that's what I'm saying. It's not Ireland".

I was so glad to see you did this one and sorry it's taken me so long to watch it. I'm also sorry to hear that people gave you a hard time over this one. Sorry if I was one of them! What matters the most is that you do your thing the way you want to. This is definitely a powerful song that will never get old. Dreams and Linger are beautiful songs too.. Proost!.

This song was inspired by the IRA bombing in Warrington, Cheshire, England on March 20, 1993. Two children, Jonathan Ball and Tim Parry, were killed. The IRA (Irish Republican Army) is a militant group that was determined to end British government of Northern Ireland. Lead singer Dolores O'Riordan claimed that "Zombie" speaks about "the Irish fight for independence that seems to last forever." The lyrics even say, "It's the same old theme since 1916." The video was shot by Samuel Bayer, who flew to Belfast shortly before the ceasefire to get footage of the area - those are real British soldiers and local children. On August 31, 1994, just a few weeks after this song was released, the IRA declared a ceasefire after 25 years of conflict.

If you recall the gold paint used in the bad wolf version that was on a lady and mirror you can see from this video that used the same thing to pay homage to Doloris. They also wrote the date she passed in the paint.
