dolores o'riordan WAS the cranberries. they'll never be whole without her. she wrote the songs, played the music, and sang her heart out.

[@Llucmajorer1]

Nice, but I think Dolores wasn't The Cranberries. The Cranberries were Dolores. The magic of the band was in the combination of a very good rhythmic base with the best female rock vocalist of all time (IMO). The rhythmic base that was formed by the best drummer of the 90s (Fergal), a solvent guitarist and a bassist with his own style. The magic was also in the harmonious combination of these 4 musicians, and the icing on the cake was Dolores's heavenly voice.

[@kimbunchalastnames5357]

@@Llucmajorer1 maybe you're right. it's just that dolores had such a glorious and unique voice -- with any other vocalist, they just wouldn't have been the cranberries. she was so feckin IRISH, kwim? i loved the gaelic lilt she had. but maybe she was the tip of a very strong pyramid. the bass line was always powerful, the percussion, the strings -- it was such a beautifully expressed sound.

[@Jaydon05]

You'r so right! Thx!

[@stefeuphoria5412]

The whole world will never be whole again without her.

[@scrossman27]

That "yodel" is called keening. It's a traditional Irish lamentation.

[@drock55551]

I didn't know that was a thing. I just did it.

[@jgg59]

Her singing is from the Sean-nós tradition

[@rifki9055]

RIP 🙏 DOLORES! She's probably the only singer that you can hear her accent or Irish Borgue in her vocals! And her yodeling! Beautiful voice well missed!🥲

[@alecneate76]

Sinead o'connor maybe?

[@allenwhitmer8192]

The Corrs

[@LadyFalcon17]

The Clancy Brother are another Irish band/musicians where the brogue comes through heavily in their vocals. ☘️

[@johnnie160]

There are tons and tons of Irish singers who sing with their Irish accents. You just need to listen to more varied music.

[@lordvitae]

I've always found her voice hauntingly beautiful

[@syx3s]

there aren't many songs that make me weep like a babby. this one does it almost every time. she was so talented and beautiful. always makes tears. what an amazing talent.

[@kenross9026]

Me as well

[@blaiseprisciotta553]

Great song. Released in 1993. She passed away in 2018. Drowned due to intoxication. Very sad.

[@darrenbuckley2082]

You just get carried away by her voice, it's beautiful.

[@zelgkopitar8799]

RIP. Never knew how big of an impact she had on my youth until she died. I get sad every time I hear any of their songs now. Such a wonderful person and a very unique voice. Great band.

[@lfcgero35]

Dreams is another great song from the cranberries more up beat and the yodeling you mention is called keening in ireland and is mainly sung at irish funerals although unfortunately it is a dying tradition. Top reaction as always and i wouldnt expect anything less. Thank you and a massive slainte from ireland. Stay safe my friend.

"Zombie" is a great song by them. and idc what anyone says, "Linger" is a damn good song lol 🔥👍

[@sukioki6983]

Linger came out my Senior year of High School... Loved it back then and still love it today... Theres just a flood of emotions when I hear it.

[@joshuaha7661]

@@sukioki6983 I can imagine. I'm jealous. I'm a little younger, I always wished I went through Highschool/young adulthood during the grunge era and 90's metal (Pantera) The 90's were so amazing and one of a kind. Back when the music still meant something.

@@AgunziLFC I'm a guy lol, that's why I said it and as a guy I've heard it's a shit song many times.

[@AgunziLFC]

@@joshuaha7661 Im a guy to, i went to see them in concert in the late 90's and it was awesome! She was such a tiny woman, 5 2" but she had some lungs on her, such a powerful and beautiful voice. I remember seeing her live and thinking how can such a tiny thing have a voice like that lol I was gutted when i heard of her passing, such a tragic loss :(

[@jennhurl]

There's so many beautiful layers of instruments & melodies in the background & then putting her haunting voice over it is brilliant. Beautiful song!

[@catmeifyoucan4649]

Certainly doesn't hurt that she's the background vocals too;)

[@yullt6885]

That’s a cool little drum beat that I never noticed before. Can’t go wrong with Cranberries.

[@wen-nz3sk]

When I'd heard of Dolores' passing a piece if me went with her. My heart ached, still does. 💔 There was a time when the Crans ruled my world!! That "yodel" you mentioned, shows her true heritage, it's natural...and so utterly beautiful and poetic. Fly high D!! ❤🥺 Thank you for reacting...more please. 😁

[@fmcm7715]

I wore out my tape I listened to it so much. Dolores’ Sean-nos and her accent and her singing voice were everything. She will always be missed especially in Ireland where I live.

[@christinawoolley6206]

It's that Irish lilt! Love them 💕

[@jillplatte6370]

This is one of those very special songs that is unique and brings such a smooth vibe. Perfection.

[@jessetibbits2627]

Thank you V for doing more on The Cranberries. Through a mutual friend in the music business I got to know Dolores in 2015 thru email and phone calls .Last talked to her in Sept 2017. She died in Jan 2018. Miss her everyday

[@echopryme]

If you dont do Mazzy Star's "Fade Into You" as a part of "Woman Week" then this kitten next to me will DIE!!! Nah... just kidding. 🤣 I dont even have a kitten. But you should REALLY do that song!!!! Trust me. Its amazingly beautiful.

[@TheSimplyIncrediblePodcast]

I always get chills when I hear her voice. She was an amazing singer.

[@kilgh]

So many amazing tracks that Dolores left us. One of the few bands that you can listen to the entire album and not want to skip any tracks. The Cranberries have a number of deceptively slow starts on their tracks before changing things up. She was only a teenager when she penned this song. You should watch some of the live performances on here so you get to see what a character Dolores really was. Still find it a really hard listen the last album the band recorded from her demo vocals after her death. The band gets a lot of it's characteristic sound from the inventive drumming of Fergal Lawler. Dreams is a great example of this.

[@michaelgilbert197]

She passed away in 2018, on the VERY DAY she was supposed to be in the studio to reprise her iconic vocals on the Bad Wolves version of "Zombie". They were actually the ones who called and had the hotel check on her because she was late to the recording session. She loved their version AND the fact that, 25 years later, they wanted to reiterate the same sentiment that she had in the original "Zombie". The Bad Wolves were devastated by her passing and decided to release their version as a tribute to Delores, donating the proceeds to her children. Their version (minus Delores') vocals, is exceptional!! They paid tribute to her in the most beautiful and haunting way in the Video. Knowing this, maybe a 2nd reaction to Bad Wolves cover/tribute of "Zombie" is in order???

[@Grizzlox]

I was so in love with Dolores... Rest in Peace you beautiful soul

[@r4x2]

She was an honest songwriter and performances were so open-hearted. She was an early crush for me when I was a little boy, and it’s an absolute loss that she’s gone.

[@lynedwards6714]

I met my now husband at the end of ‘93 (I was 16 and he was 19) and this came out a few months later. Hearing this takes me right back to our early days together ☺️❤️

Ode to family, and when you're gone are probably my favorites. Dreams and be with you are great too.

[@aarongusel2839]

I saw them live in San Diego a long time ago, and I thought she sounded even better live. Such a strong amazing voice.

[@catmeifyoucan4649]

Dolores is Irish, she can yodel, and has a strong Limmerick accent (VERY Irish sounding). She drowned in a pool in 2018 after just signing off on releasing a new album; she was still incredibly active in the music scene. An angelic voice from a gorgeous girl.

[@jeffstevens4262]

We still miss her so much. God bless Dolores.

[@christygill1632]

I love the Cranberries & this song is beautiful! Dreams, Zombie & Ode to My Family are also wonderful songs! Thanks for reacting to this one! Brought back some memories of my younger days!

[@scotterboy3000]

Your right about her voice bro. She sang Gaelic music as well. That’s how she grew up. It did give her a unique sound. Good catch. I can’t understand the Gaelic language but it’s beautiful and unique. Very old language.

[@caiawren6100]

I love their album "Everybody else is doing it, so why can't we?"

[@DanFrijoles]

There was a big UK Pop/Rock push at one point. I would recommend "Come On Eileen" by Dexy's Midnight Runners -OR- "Tub Thumping" by Chumbawamba

[@Otterman214]

The first time I heard song *"Linger"* was in a movie *"Click"* Starring Adam Sandler Actually the song comes Twice in the movie The song literally became anthem of the film

[@catmeifyoucan4649]

Yes, the drum had an excellent sound. She also does ALL her vocals. Look up their song Dreams, the background vocals are amazing in that!

Please watch their other songs. Like "Zombie", "Ode to my family", "When you're gone", "Salvation"...Those songs are very meaningful. Especially in her life. You may have checked out some of those already... I am a huge fan of all The Cranberries Songs.

[@LadyFalcon17]

I like that you always rewind it after you pause it. Sometimes on the reaction videos, people pause it during the best parts, and I’m like: “NOOOO!!” I appreciate that you always go back so you don’t miss anything. 👍🏻

I was a 13 year old Swede when this came out, I though she sang 'Oooooh you know I'm searching food for you'. I was like, potato famine, makes sense....airhead.

[@jayb.2649]

I just watched the video and song a couple months ago and I really thought ok this must’ve came out like 2010-2014 for some reason. Come to find out this was way back in 93 a year before my birth. That just tells you how good the song and video has aged.

[@christhomasson1148]

RIP Dolores, one of the most beautiful voices and the best female lead band of all time. The amazing thing is that she wrote this song at only 17 years old. I'd highly recommend reacting to Dreams, Ode To My Family and Now You're Gone to really get a flavour of her vocal ability

[@drakeswarchannel2530]

[@dinaghikas7933]

Another interesting female voice from this same era is Natalie Merchant. I don't know if you've heard her songs yet, but 'Carnival' and 'Jealousy' are two excellent hits of hers to start with.

[@jgg59]

Many Irish singers have been influenced by traditional Irish music such as Sean-nós . Since the Irish language has a lot of these traditional inflections of the voice which can be created in English and keep it Irish. It’s quite lovely actually you hear it in Sinéad O’Connor Bono of U2 and many others from ireland.

[@moniqueleroux2198]

An American artist did utilizes the keening technique found in Zombie, is Sarah McLachlan. Definitely worth checking out!
