The vocal sound Dolores is using in this song is called Keening also known as Sean-Nós Singing.....typically used in Irish and Scottish songs mourning the dead.

[@TheDivayenta]

Sean Nos is used in all kinds of Irish folk tunes as it is musical ornamentation- I use it vocally and in my flute playing based on listening to Planxty and Niamh Parsons and many other artists. Keening however takes place at funerals.

[@amyelizabeth529]

I'm so glad you mentioned the keening she uses in her music. Thanks for explaining it further by providing the Irish interpretation of keening as sean-nós.

Thank you! I've been dying to know how to google this for years ... so I can hear more of it!

[@shawnaseverinski3219]

Please STOP spreading this completely false information! I keep seeing you and STOP IT! You have been corrected again and again. Delores never keened a second of her life! She sang with the Irish Yodel technique. STOP lying to sound smart

[@heyyall75]

The rest of the internet calls it keening as well. As I understand, keening is used as lament, like with funerals. This song sounds like a lament to me. I'm not saying she didn't also yodel in her performances, but the general consensus seems to be she's keening in this song.

[@clonexx]

I saw them in concert in the mid 2000s and they were great. One of the few non metal concerts I ever went to. Her voice live was just phenomenal. She was pitch perfect and powerful. You are right, without her there is no Cranberries. That’s why they didn’t try to do anything after she passed. This song is powerful because the band lived through the troubles in Ireland, they lived through the violence of the IRA. RIP Dolores, I wish you could have beat your demons.

[@FreeMTrider]

My family back in Dublin saw a lot of those early troubles back in the Michael Collins' years....and of course my parents saw the later trouble when they grew up. They immigrated to the US in the '60s bringing my older sister. Myself and my brother were born here, but we certainly got an education of sorts about Ireland.

It’s a massive feeling of nostalgia.

[@sarahmmedia]

Fun fact, one aspect of Dolores' singing is called Keening. It's a traditional style/technique of singing/wailing to lament the dead in Ireland & Scotland. So with the theme of this song mourning the victims of an IRA bombing, all the inflections & style choices fit so well. Dolores had a very unique voice, even in Ireland. It was weird, which is why most of us adore her.

[@MasculinityMindset]

Came here looking for the keening comment ;)

[@JohnSmith-gp3co]

No it’s not. It’s not keening at all. Keening isn’t singing.

[@sarahmmedia]

@@JohnSmith-gp3coI didn't say her whole singing style was keening, just that she used it as a technique. I've heard it said that she used a yodel rather than keening technique too, but it's closer to the sean-nos style keening than yodel in my opinion.

[@sarahmmedia]

@x I'd love to know why sharing a part of our culture with people who don't know, is a bad thing 😂 Yes it's repetitive, but a lot of people don't even know they're Irish, let alone the elements of Irish culture The Cranberries mixed into their music 🤷

The drummer in this band does some really nice work. He doesn't overpower the song, but he works within it to propel the song forward and does some nice little fills throughout it.

[@kharma7755]

The lilt thing she is doing vocally is called keening. It's a form of Celtic anguish or mourning via vocals. The story behind "Zombie" is the perfect reason to incorporate that particular style of singing. R.I.P. Dolores

[@ziggymarlowe5654]

This is a protest song, written in memory of Johnathan Ball, aged 3 and Tim Parry, aged 12, who were killed in the 1993 IRA Warrington bombings. Many others were wounded. So heartbreaking when little children are killed in senseless violence. The killers are like zombies who have no thoughts of the consequences of their actions. I like to think that this song caused many to stop and think about what was happening in Northern Ireland. With 1.2 billion views perhaps a few did.

That’s why there are no longer any bins in the station now as apparently it was in a bin. My nephew was in Manchester when a bombing happened too. It was terrifying. Thankfully he wasn’t in the area it happened which was odd as usually that’s the area he used to go to but decided that day not to. That was enough for me.

Ireland between those for maintaining British rule over N. Ireland & those for returning it to Ireland and Irish control.

So it wasn't about religious conflict? I am not up to speed on those times.

[@kylereece1979]

@@iwannaseenow1 That was sort of part of it, with the opposing sides, Nationalists being mostly Catholic and Loyalists being Protestant. But it went and goes far beyond that, with, as the gentleman's comment above me stating it being moreso about Northern Ireland's position either remaining in the UK, or unifying with the rest of the Republic.

[@mark-be9mq]

Yes, but no?: The conflict & antipathy began w/ Anglo- Norman invasion of Ireland in 1169, when England & Irish were Both wholly Catholic. England maintained control in whole or part thru mid 1641. English control was strongest in the North where lands were given to Eng Nobility as early as 12th cent. When Henry VIII left Catholic Chruch, religious suppression Ireland incled English & Irish Catholics there. Ulster rebellion in 1641 inclded Ireland's Galic & English Catholics took back part of Ireland, But Cromwell landed & put Ireland to the torch & sword. Now religious antipathy is added to the political. His hatred of Catholics led to up 30- 50% of Irish inhabitants being killed in 10 yrs. Most remaining Irish Catholics refuse to take oath to Eng & renounce their Faith. 50K sent to Brit colonies, the rest resettled in the poor lands of Connaught & lands given to English by the 1652 Acts of Settlement. Catholic Faith is outlawed, those caught at illegal Mass were tortured & hung, then drawn & quartered. Irish War of Independece, 1921-22, regains Irish Republic. English Northern MPs, allowed to vote Irish or English rule, choose England, & many Catholics Irish & English w Land & fam, now N. Ireland who stayed felt growingly disenfranchised & discriminated against. THIS antipathy led 1960s "campaign to end their discrimination". Loyalists saw as a front for Irish unification. This led to the Troubles & well documented bloody actions & reactions of IRA & Loyalists militia, until the 98 Good Friday Peace . All to say if the Irish were pagan or atheist the Troubles were gonna happen. It was a political fight w two nationslist groups of "different" religions. Sorry for length. But ...

Well, I now turned them both on to this song and they love it. My great niece knows the lyrics and the little 1 year old hears it and stops in his tracks to bounce along with the music. It's kind of cool how this song can be loved by people of all ages.

The song is about the fighting in Ireland at the time and how it effected the country at the time. It’s a very provocative and meaningful song which made it blow up at the time and which makes it such a great song to this day

[@mothpig]

It's about the Troubles but specifically about the IRA bombing in Warrington, England which killed two little boys

[@jpgduff]

@@mothpig Shame all.the kids getting in killed in Ireland didn't warrant a song...

[@jeremyperry9021]

Ryan's monologue towards the outro was awesome 😎 George made this reaction hilarious 😂😆

[@matejoh]

As a dude with Irish heritage, I just did a spit take with George pulling that leprechaun voice, lol 😆 😂

[@danielhackmn]

7:01 is my new favorite moment in any Lost in Vegas video EVER.

[@sarcasmroks]

George got so serious when he attempted that accent 😂😂😂

[@INFERIORMARCH]

😂😂😂😂

The back story behind this song is incredible. I'm not religious, but I really pray that the peace in Northern Ireland can be maintained. Also, Dolores O'Riordan was not just one of the greatest female voices in Rock, she was too an incredible multi-instrumentist who played electric/acoustic guitar, tin whistle, church organ, keyboard, piano, mandoline, etc. She was as well the main songwritter of the band. #RIPDoloresORiordan ✨🙏🤘

I assume you're not Irish or British (Brazilian/Portuguese judging by the name?) So thanks for the kind words, I'm from the Republic of Ireland not the North, but God I hope peace is maintained to. It's funny what short memories people have. The Tory Government in Britain are doing everything possible with all the Brexit stuff to reignite tensions without a care whether they do so or not. A remarkably incompetent group of people.

[@paulporter5853]

I liked Ryan's comments about how the song combined the unfamiliar elements with the familiar.

[@The_Texan_American]

Man it’s really cool watching you guys today and comparing to your videos from so long ago. The content has always been great. You guys just get progressively cooler somehow lol

[@BigRedBeard1985]

I've loved this song for decades. The whole album is great, I had it on cassette. If you haven't figured it out, I'm old lol.

[@thomasharris4942]

Also, this is one of the few songs where the music video actually adds something instead of detracts.

[@joeimmormino]

Been watching your videos for years and never commented but had to comment to say George’s Irish accent was the funniest shit. Made me laugh out loud 😂 Much love to you guys.

[@jiordone8563]

The official video of this song adds a lot to the emotion.

[@stonerjoe21]

RIP Delores O’Riorden!! My wifey and I cover this and Linger on acoustic and it always does well with the crowds!! Can never go wrong with The Cranberries

[@Hazardlv]

One of the most powerful songs in modern history

[@sebastianschilling7337]

This has got to be one of the most meaningfull and deepest songs of the 90s. And still you guys manage to make us laugh! Legendary channel moment right there and then, no doubt! Thanks for the free smiles, guys!

[@crisgroom3857]

This was a fun watch guys!🇮🇪

[@kevinkeegan4817]

That accent attempt was magically delicious.

[@juniortarantino9099]

Shit had me dying 😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@INFERIORMARCH]

😂😂😂😂

[@poyznelf]

The synchronized head bobbing was hysterical, especially since I also was head bobbing.

[@mbrothers123]

Ryan’s reaction to George impersonating an Irishman is the most classic Lost in Vegas moment

[@EMENHD]

That accent alone was worth the £3 this month

[@INFERIORMARCH]

😂😂😂😂

[@EllipsesDots]

An absolute classic. You guys should keep your microphone audio up whenever you're talking to eachother during the song. I'd love to hear the conversation

[@joezulvc9240]

This is legit my number 1 all time fav song ever

[@TallicaMan1986]

This track is about "The Troubles" A conflict that lasted 30 years in Northern Ireland.

[@whamsie4022]

Have to admit, I’m not a “free-thinker.” I only watch reactions to songs I already know and like.

[@TheFairyintheFishBowl]

Omg! I thought I was the only one.

[@SeveredLegs]

hahahaha "the luck of the Irish" bit slayed. hahahahaha

[@INFERIORMARCH]

😂😂😂😂

[@LG_7984]

I laughed SO HARD when George did the "accent" and then they both lost it! One of the best Lost In Vegas moments EVER! hahaha

[@Onewholovesrock]

This is a 10+ song. You can’t really make a better song than this. There have been tons of different bands and artists covering this song for many years now

[@laurettelaliberte8864]

The singing style is called "keening".
