WOW! This isn't really a reaction video. It's more of an, I like to hear myself talk video. The main point of these REACTION videos is to watch YOU WHILE YOU ARE WATCHING IT, this means NO PAUSING OR STOPPING the video. There's a few reasons why this is important, but it's mainly because we want to see an authentic reaction to what you are watching & when you pause/stop it you're then not showing us your full reaction. Seeing your AUTHENTIC REACTION from start to finish. NO stopping, NO pausing. It's also not called an Explanation video because MOST of us KNOW what the song is about already since that's why it was suggested to you. IF you feel the need to say anything just wait until the song is over. A true authentic reaction is only possible if the person knows nothing about the song, so NO finding anything about it before you make the video & that's because if you learn anything about it BEFORE you watch it then that will impact your reaction to it. So to sum up..... *NO LEARNING ABOUT THE SONG BEFOREHAND. *NO PAUSING/STOPPING AT ALL WHILE WATCHING IT. *NO CONTROLLING YOUR EMOTIONS SINCE THAT WILL DEFEAT THE PURPOSE OF YOUR REACTION TO IT. *ALWAYS SHOW YOUR AUTHENTIC REACTION TO IT, which means NO holding back your emotions, ESPECIALLY SO IN REGARDS TO SONGS that are about true events. But one of the biggest pet peeves that MANY of us have when watching these types of videos is the pausing/stopping of the video to talk when that should be done when the song is over. (FYI: IF you feel the need to reply &/or send me a message PLEASE make peace with the fact that I won't read or even see it. I just don't like doing the whole back & forth debate thing & what I really just want to do is watch more YT videos & since mean spirited/nasty comments have effected me in the past I came to the conclusion that this is what's best for ME which is to not read any of them since there's really no way of discerning between a negative or a positive without actually reading them. So to keep my head space happy this is the best way for me to do that, plus adding this statement saves people from wasting their time responding back too. TY so much for understanding).✌💕
I'm going to pin this comment, because it highlights some extremely important points. I'll start by saying your opinion is valid, and I understand where you're coming from -- if you don't appreciate the analysis, my channel is not for you. However, this may surprise you, but if you look anywhere in the comment sections on my videos, you will see thousands and thousands of people who love the in-depth analysis, and are so happy to see someone take the time to turn the ocean of valueless, bullshit reaction videos into something interesting and educational (their words, not mine, although I do agree). TH-cam, and the world at large, does not revolve around you. My entire mission for this channel is to enhance the audience's love and appreciation of music, and I fully accept that not 100% of the viewers will be aligned with how I do it. I find your comment highly hypocritical, and selfish -- not because of what you think of this video, but because you left an entire essay's worth of nastiness in the same message that you say nasty comments have affected you badly in the past. If nothing else, I hope you see how flawed this line of thinking is -- it's quite frightening, really. Best of luck.
Addendum: The title of my video doesn't even have the word, "reaction" -- it's rightfully named a "Vocal ANALYSIS" to avoid any confusion one might have. Unfortunately, this messaging doesn't seem to work on everyone. Be well.
thats bs... how are you able to react and not talk over the video you are watching without pausing. and if you arent allowed to talk over the video you have to stymie your reaction. also,. if you talk over the video you are reacting too,.. you may miss something else in the video... if you just wanna listen to the song without interruption just watch the original.
wow. going around leaving mean spirited/nasty comments, claiming to speak on behalf of people they won't interact with because of potentially mean spirited/nasty comments. also making a show of explaining all of this, while claiming they really just want to watch more yt videos. apparently responding is a waste of time, but watching videos they don't like and then taking the time to leave nasty comments is not. maybe this is something they copy and paste onto videos they dislike to save time in spreading their negativity? make it make sense.
Elizabeth reviewed this a couple of months ago and there were many suggestions that the flip is a traditional Irish technique called keening. It conveys grief which fits the purpose of this song.
its actually the whole song style, assembly & delivery is in keening style. Keening is the technique used for songs of lament/life remembrance to be sung at funerals where the singers were( its a dying art) almost wailing to express the grief felt by the family of the bereaved they were performing for.
That yodel is called keening in Ireland. It is an ancient Gaelic style of lamentation. In Ireland it was called keening, in Scotland it was called coronach. Dolores grew up learning traditional Irish folk music and incorporated some of it in Zombie. Not surprisingly, she was a fan of The Pogues' music.
Great analysis Peter. This song carries a lot of baggage, when you consider why and when it was written, and it means a lot to me as an Irishman, but you have added another dimension to it for me. I love her voice, but the insight into how technical a singer she was just makes it better for me.
Merry Christmas and thanks for your reaction! The violence in Northern Ireland really escalated bad in the early 1980's when she wrote this emotional song. The flips/yodel she is using here is Irish "keening" vocal technique used to convey grief or strong emotion in a song. You hear it more often in old Irish folk songs but I noticed that Alanis Morissette frequently uses it in her songs (especially "You Oughta Know").
This song and especially the pictures, has meaning to anyone who lived through "The Troubles". As a Brit who hit his teens as they started, the violence and hate was a background to my youth. Summed up so well in a song. Since the agreement things have been much better but BRexit has raised the spectre again.
Have you reacted to Bad Wolves' version of this song. There is a story that goes with that song when you watch the video. By the way, this song was written in regard to the fighting in Northern Ireland
@@sibertiger1970 YES! Along with the slight lyric updates, the sound is phenomenal. If Dolores's version was sad and angry about the violence in N Ireland, Bad Wolves takes that anger and ramps it up to pure rage at the violence that has continued around the world and a message unheeded.
Another Cranberries song Obviosly, I listen to this song every day and also your videos ,i highly recommend Dreams! ❤ there are many common covers of them , but Cranberries its just original and unique.
Ich liebe diesen Song auch, seit er veröffentlicht wurde. Er ist gesanglich und instrumental unverwechselbar und eindringlich. Danke für die Analyse. 👍
It's like she's crying and screaming at the same time with the guitar on her solo's. That's the only way I can describe it. She's portraying the emotion of the song through her guitar.
Great reaction - would love to see you do the Bad Wolves cover of this song. One of my favourite covers of all time, second only to Disturbed's cover of Sound of Silence.
Keening is an Irish way of singing, it was used for hundreds of years as burial songs were sang at the funeral. Kind of like a crying yodel. RIP Dolores, you are so missed girl. This song was written when a bomb killed two boys in the past Irish war.
Definitely one of most gravely serious rock songs that’s been around for awhile. Probably not a single upbeat moment in the entire composition, nor should there be, given the subject. I think it’s one of those tracks that demonstrates how deep and dark rock could be during that era of music. Makes perfect sense to me that the key is Em. Because like you said, there’s a lot of heavy shit in this song. And it needs the right key to unlock it.
I remember she never did the 'tudududu' when performing Zombie live. The Cranberries songs have a lot of 'lalalala' (Waltzing Back, Pretty, Dreams, Liar, Desperate Andy, Ridiculous Thoughts, Picture I view, The Rebels) and 'tudududu' ( Disappointment, I Can't Be With You, Promises, Ode To My Family, Never Grow Old)
When the troubles happened and there were bonds that went of in Delores’ hometown killing 2 young boys, they were touring and the stopped tour. The actually snuck into the city under the guise of doing a documentary. Filmed the city and the real graffiti from years and years!!!! What Delores does is called”keeling” which is a galic grieving cry of grieving.
Such an amazing throw back for me, this was and still is one of my favourite songs. Amazing talent , thank you for your awesome analysis of the music we all love ❤️. Definitely going to join patreon especially if we hear some more chinchilla, Ren, Romain Axisa , Sam Tompkins, they are all incredible as you know
I enjoyed this, thank you. I love to learn a little about the technical aspects of a song, or performance. Discovering that there's not only elements I was wholly ignorant of, but also gain some context of the skill required to create, and cleverly apply said elements, allows an entirely new aspect of an artist, or song, that I didn't even know I was missing out on, to be appreciated and enjoyed. Awesome!
Great job, Peter! I just discovered your channel today. I love The Cranberries and Dolores's voice was just pphenomenal! she was truly one of a kind. I want to cover this song so I'm getting acquainted with Dolores's specific vocal technique, and love that yodeling/keening she is doing with all her flips into her head voice. Every time I hear someone else analyze this song I come away with a new appreciation. Elizabeth from The Carasmatic Voice analyzed this a few months ago and I loved her analysis too. I will definitely subscribe to your channel, great job. Dolores
Nice analysis! It definitely helped me to focus and hear things in it that I hadn't heard before. If she's not already on your radar, you might want to check out Aurora - her vocals get compared to Dolores sometimes.
Any analysis of the vocal performance without the context of the lyrics and the story is missing an opportunity to enjoy and understand the vocal choices! I haven't seen any reaction videos that really address this side of a performance and that is too bad. I appreciate what you do and learn so much, thank you!
I love her! Thank for analysing her song/video. I'm going to have to listen to your analysis again, so I can play with my voice. One of my friends says they think of me when hearing her sing. Huge complement; I'm nowhere near her talent. ❤
I remember being struck by this song when it was released. I appreciate it even more after your analysis. I voted for Ren Chalk Outlines in your poll. Looking forward to your thoughts on it
Hi Peter thank you for your analysis. Dolores was a great singer. Love the song Dreams as well. Both Bad Wolves and Peyton Parrish did great covers of Zombie as well. They did alter some of the words though to make it more relevant to the times, showing that even though time has passed, some things never change. Peyton has done some great covers. Another Forestella song would also be appreciated especially something like Champions or Dell Amore Non Si Sa or In'Ultra Vita going back to their cross-over roots.
Check out, from a few years ago, Daria Stavrovich, lead singer of the Russian band Slot, her audition on The Voice Russia. Also see the videos of the rest of Daria's songs on that show. Mind-blowing.
Bad Wolves did an awesome cover of this song. Dolores was supposed to be on the track and video but she died right before. They decided to record it anyway and all proceeds go to her children.
Ive never thought of reviewing grunge/alternative rock music. I love it!! I will check your playlists but I wonder if you'd review Don't Speak/No Doubt? Crawling/Linkin Park? and Still With You/Jungkook? Thank you for the breakdowns! Im enjoying them!
Hi Peter - it's official you are my favourite reactor. I just learn SO much from you. As you may know I am a shameless Corvyx plugger and I couldn't not watch this and let you know that he covered this years ago :-) take a look aren't we due another Corvyx reaction from you soon 😛I'd love to see you react to one of his live covers, Nirvana or Goo Goo Dolls x Happy New Year too
I do like how you analyzed the boyband SB19 some months ago, maybe you can spend another time for their ballad songs like LIHAM, HANGGANG SA HULI, ILAW etc on wish bus, Thank you.
I think you neglected the lyrics and what the song stands for. “Zombie” is considered a protest song against the Northern Ireland conflict. and that children are involved from a young age. and that where she wrote the song, two children had just died in a bomb attack. That's what makes this song so intense and how they sang it. and why it is so iconic.
I genuinely don't feel that it's my place to comment on such matters. My focus for these videos is always on the musical elements, especially the vocal technique. The rabbit hole of dissecting poetry and cultural standpoints is not only beyond my scope of expertise, but probably inappropriate in most cases.
@@PeterBarber I'm sorry because a singer has to know what he's singing. Without a feeling for the song you can't put on a good performance. A singer needs to know what the song is about so that he can convey the right feelings. and therefore the person must also have some basic knowledge. Worrying only about technique is dead business, as any singing teacher or music student will tell you.
Am I hearing things, but in the bridge when she's on the word "head," it almost feels like she starts the flip on the H but then drops to the target note. Thoughts @peter barber ?
Peter thanks for the analysis. Not trolling or in a mean spirit but I think you missed it on this one. Yes I love your break down of music, but imo sometimes certain songs dont need broken down musically. Analyze the lyrics & meaning (what inspired the song), the feeling the artist is conveying emotionally. You stated at the end of a deeper meaning and so we know you fully understand this song is special in many ways & not just musically. Anyway keep up the good work.
On the plus side a confirmation of the importance of a vocal do do do . Next step . What the bloody hell does I . R . A . mean when plastered on the side of a wall ?
Cranberries are just trying to Elizabeth Fraser, singer for Cocteau Twins. You was should listen to the real thing, Carolina's Fingers, Alice, Heaven Or Las Vegas, Ice Blink Luck, Pearly Dew drops Drops, Sugar Hiccup. No person can sing as well as Elizabeth Ftraser.
That the violence had become so normalized that the children played war games and people were silent after experiencing violence instead of demanding that it end.
@@PeterBarber Ur welcome man. Think u can fit in a stryper review? The link is below. The song is transgressor. It be sick to hear ur breakdown of Mike's vocals. th-cam.com/video/0xzvGtJ5dW0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=_8gBn5vuaO-4kA4m

The kids and soldiers in this video are real in Ireland. To get the footage they told them that they was filming a documentary.

This song is relevant today and will probaboy always be if we don't learn
I've always loved how raw and genuine this one feels ❤

One of the greatest songs
It should be noted that Deloris also did the guitar solo as well as the vocals.
She is using a musical term known as “keening “, which is a traditional Gaelic form of dirge or lament for the dead!
I'd love to hear you analyze Wilson Phillips. They have so much excellent harmony in their music.
Her growl-yodel flips in the chorus 🤩
Specifically on the word Zombie
Can you do When You're Gone by the cranberries? The chorus has a beautiful melody and great vocals.

Cranberries are just trying to Elizabeth Fraser, singer for Cocteau Twins. You was should listen to the real thing, Carolina's Fingers, Alice, Heaven Or Las Vegas, Ice Blink Luck, Pearly Dew drops Drops, Sugar Hiccup. No person can sing as well as Elizabeth Ftraser.
Easy Mary.
OK, you've told us everything about the song, except what the song is about.
OK
...and what IS the message?
That the violence had become so normalized that the children played war games and people were silent after experiencing violence instead of demanding that it end.
2 billion views because of a guitar solo . Or not .
Oh jesus stopping every other sentence ...Noooo
Annoying as hell that he kept interrupting it. I understand they have to interrupt a little bit, but he just went on and on and on.
Thanks!
Thank you!
