RIP Dolores. We miss you! Fun fact, when she wrote this song and presented it to her bandmates, she asked the drummer "Can you please hit the drums real hard?" .... I think he did a good job. I know why this hits so hard. Her voice, the mourning guitar and drums like gun shots.
WAIT WHAT SHE IS DEAD????
@@JoJoLewis Yeah, she died in 2018.
@@JoJoLewis Dolores sadly passed away in 2018 at a hotel room in London by drowning due to alcohol intoxication. Shr had beed struggle with deoression most her life and was diagnosed with Bipolar disorder. R.i.P Dolores ❤
@@jonnyljung9605 * depression *been * 😁
It's called the Dolores effect!
This is based on the conflict in nortern ireland in the 90's, two kids died from a bomb attack.
It was a civil war like conflict about power and identity, the protestants who wanted to stay a part of thr united kingdom fought against the catholics that wanted a unified ireland.
You said it, this is phenomal.
rip Dolores
I didn’t even know she was dead that’s heartbreaking
Just to add that the bomb was set by the IRA in Warrington, England but was part of the troubles.
@@darrencooke4207 Yeah England, especially the Royal family -the wretched queen!
She did not just know how to sing ; she knew why to sing.
That's beautiful 🤩😊
Couldn't have said it better myself.
I heard recently that the 2 boys killed by the bomb in that letterbox wanted to put in a card for their mum on mother’s day. Heart-breaking. As if the whole conflict hadn‘t been tragic enough. This song, the instrumentation and Dolores‘ voice. Unmatched. Here I am on a Sunday in 2023. crying just as I did when it was first released almost 30 years ago. And now another war killing people. Killing children. Oh yes. So much anger and disappointment in her voice, as you said. Really, what IS in our heads? When will we ever learn?
The footage of the soldiers is legit footage of them patrolling the area at the time. The band and crew lied and said they were filming a documentary so they could get the footage. It’s a very powerful song, both in the way it sounds, and it’s message.
It is important to be clear about one point: The Cranberries are Irish (Republic), the song is about the deaths of two English boys in the Warrington Bombing, committed by the IRA (Irish Republican Army). So, despite being Irish, the Cranberries are reacting to the deaths of two English children and basically saying "enough is enough". It is unusal for people from one side of a conflict to lament deaths on the other side, but the conflict wasn't really waged by ordinary people, only extremist political factions. Irish people, like my late Mother, for example, routinely went to England to get work, and, in my Mother's case, married an Englishman. At the same time, the IRA were planting bombs on English soil and, in 1979, murdered Lord Mountbatten, the late Queen's Uncle.
I just got through writing a comment to another reaction video to make the same point that it was an Irish band responding to the deaths of two British boys. I had missed any comments about that, and I had not pointed it out either until tonight. And now I see your comment confirming the importance of that fact. Thank you.
My comment was that the troubles led to casualties on both sides, and that the emotional response (or emotionless response) was the same on both sides--a resignation or even an acceptance of violence as simply a condition of life--the zombie in your head. At least that's how I've come to hear the song after listening to it carefully, I guess, a hundred times. Not living in Ireland or England, I can only imagine.
May Dolores rest in piece 🙏. Amazing singer, song and band. Verily iconic song in my opinion. One of my favorites of all time...
Rest in Peace Dolores, you will always be a legend.
I was a young adult (freshman in college) when the Cranberries hit, and they were like nothing I had ever heard before. Dolores was magic and the band was so talented musically, not to mention willing to take risks. I would have loved to see them live but it wasn't to be. Please search more deeply into their catalog. ETA Linger is another song of theirs that gets me every time, I'm right back there in the 90s. Would love to see your reaction.
Amazing reaction. This song is so special to so many due to the passion toward youth who suffer at the hands of adults. Dolores was one of a kind and died far too early.
Those drums !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Song from my childhood, always makes me cry. Her voice, the lyrics and the images. I remember seeing images like this on the news. Her anger and disappointment and frustration is palpable. We all feel it.
It's an anti-war song and remembrance of the two kids that died during the IRA bombing in 1992
This song is the most beautiful documentary ever ❤️
Great to see genuine shock to the pure pleasure to see and hear greatness.
I'm glad you enjoyed it. This song is about Irish "Troubles". Civil war like conflict in Ireland that lasted since 1960 to 1998.
The troubles lasted a lot more than that ! Try 800 years ! Including the genocide that is called the famine,or An gorta mor ! The great hunger. 1845 to 1852 which devastated the population of Ireland . While plenty of food was grown on the island the British government shipped of to feed their own and soldiers elsewhere . While the Irish depended on the potato as a staple which failed due to blight . After a rising in 1916 against the crown the war of Independence started in 2919 to 1921 and we got our republic back in 1922 . Short 6 counties in the north . Hopefully soon we will have a United Ireland
@@aidancrowley9452 You realize that "troubles" is name of specific conflict and not whole history of conflicts between loyalists and separatists? It's like saying current war in Ukraine started 400 years ago because of everything that was happening in the region
One of my favorite bands as a teen in the 90's
Just stumbled on your channel, been digging through a lot of your reactions and I want to say I appreciate that you take into account the emotional overtones of the music. A lot of people reacting to songs will focus on the technical elements, which is great; others will listen and give a general "I liked it" or "This is a banger" and not elaborate further.
Music is so wholly abstract and so often hits whatever synapses fire off our emotions and really glad to see that being taken into account.
Banger song, banger video, banger jojo
Gods work
My boy cried! My heart.... *sniffles*
You should absolutely look at Bad Wolves's cover of this. Dolores was set to reprise her vocals on it, but sadly she passed away that very day. The band did a tribute to her in the video as well as giving all the proceeds from their version to her family/estate.
Great video JoJo, song in general is about Irelands long struggle to gain full (including Ulster / Northern Ireland) independence from the UK, the war, which was called the Struggles (Ireland fighting UK to regain Ulster) killed many, many innocent people on both sides, Dolores wrote the song after 2 children were killed by a bomb. Dolores has since, unfortunately passed away, RIP Dolores
I think was called the Troubles.
I love like this reaction because this blind and pure react i love this brother
The way she is singing is called " keening" ..... look it up xx
Thanks to you for your authentic reaction. The Cranberries are my favorite band and Dolores O'Riordan, R.I.P, more than my favorite singer I think she was a beautiful human being. This song still remains relevant today for those of us who love her and wish for peace. I recommend the band's discography and hers as a solo artist, it would be interesting to see your reaction to songs like Promises, Dreams, Linger, Ode to my family and When we where young.
Great reaction JoJo, thank you. Ireland fought for freedom due to hundreds of years being oppressed by the British Empire,, (not the British people), which included the so called Famine. It was not a famine, livestock, food, grain was being exported from Ireland to the UK, while the Irish people themselves were starving. Ireland had an uprising in the Easter of 1916 (The Easter Uprising), leading to some independence. In 1922 Ireland regained 26 out of 32 counties, the Br Emp kept the northern 6 counties Ulster / NI). A divide between the people who wanted to be part of Ireland (mainly Catholic) and the people who wanted to be part of the UK in Ireland (mainly Protestant). The people on both sides did not hate one another, they often helped one another, and much aid did come from the British people themselves. This is/was a war, .........for what? Greed, today the people in the north are in an equally bad state as the people in the south, none of us gained anything but we lost a lot, which will scar our children for generations to come. The real war was all about greed. Rich man's greed with poor man's blood. When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will have peace. RIP Dolores, Ireland misses you! Peace worldwide and love from Ireland
In 1999 they had a beautiful concert in Paris. Try to do reaction to live. "Promises" is an amazing song from that show.
Dolores is singing in an Irish tradition of "keening"
Great reaction ❤❤
"In April 1916, Irish republicans launched the Easter Rising against British rule and proclaimed an Irish Republic. Although it was crushed after a week of fighting, the Rising and the British response led to greater popular support for Irish independence." IRA was a terrorist organization, i think they were implicated in a bombing attack in Manchester too
I was lucky enough to see them live back in 2010 (on this concert th-cam.com/video/g44K1Ddyx5M/w-d-xo.html) Dolores is greatly missed. Zombie made them really big here in Europe, and the theme is dear to my heart, but there are so much more beautiful songs, i.e. Icicle melts (th-cam.com/video/NhxsE0OJJ3Q/w-d-xo.html), Yeat's Grave (th-cam.com/video/nKKS_qfswIw/w-d-xo.html)
Oh wow you are really lucky!!! I appreciate the suggestions I’ll absolutely check them out!
You have no idea how happy i am to see your videos again, i legit missed your uploads. Hopefully you´ll be returning to Sabaton aswell soon
So glad your back man! Hope things are looking up. We all missed you!
Dia Dhuit as Éireann ☘️ Hello from Ireland , we grew up with so much horror and innocent lives lost on both sides , it all stems from Ireland’s pain and hurt from oppression from England spanning hundreds of years , Listen to Thief Of Your Heart by Sinéad O’Connor , it’s also about the troubles in Northern Ireland . Another masterpiece in my opinion . I hope you do a reaction video . Do chara Pilib
( your friend Pilib ) 💚
I knew this would get you when I saw the title. Even without knowing the story behind / context one gets the mood.
This song was created as a reaction to the slaughter of two children when the IRA placed a bomb in a litter bin in Warrington, England... it’s a call for peace
Man, that was a very fast (and accurate) take on hearing resentment. Dolores was indeed extremely pissed when she wrote this. You're very perceptive! Hey, after the kids screaming bits around 8:00, your sound seemed to acquire a flanger effect on Dolores' guitar. What happened? I'd prefer to hear the production as on the LP!
you must check out the Bad Wolves collab/tribute for this song! It will blow you away!
React to more cranberries
thanx
Hi JoJo, this one hits really hard but it is a absolute gem and classic. You should defenitly also check out the Bad Wolves cover of 'Zombie', this is a kind of tribute to Dolores and done with so much respect.
You should check out the live version...
fyi: footage from soldiers and kids are real from way back then.
¿De verdad acabas de descubrir a Dolores O'Riordan? ¿Que edad tienes? ¿En que mundo vives? Lo pregunto sin ánimo de ofender, simplemente me parece increíble.
I SWEAR. No one ever seems to get, or at least doesn't mention, what you did so immediately...that this is an ANGRY (and disappointed!) song! Even from the strart, the drums are so aggressive, the guitar is sludgy and it's just this lumbering whirlpool of angst. I think this is why there are so many soulless covers of this...they miss the simmering anger.
How is it possible that you can immediately recognise that she's Irish and not know, at least in general if not specific terms, what this is about? Does history really disappear down the memory hole this quickly?
hi i know this song that i think it would be pretty cool if you could react too, it's called "Simple song" by The Shins, as i think it's a very beautiful song and the music video is amazing aswell imo :3
Well done mate.,. Real music 🎶🎶🎶
Used genuine footage. This video was originally banned due to the violent depictions, of real life events
You should check out the bad wolves cover version. It's equal to how good this song is. Has much more heavier riffs but powerful.
Yup Unfortunately brother you are old enough to understand this just like Other Version Zombie more relevant today than it was back then and they're still fighting but with way more powerful accurate weapons like drones which is a new add on in badwolves that everyone likes in that version so it updates what Dolores was trying to say all those years ago about if nothing changes nothing changes but us and more ways to wipe us out that's why today especially this song means way more than people realize it means even back in 1994 it was about kids being killed in another senseless war that could have been discussed diplomatically but since WW1 the world has been on another collision course of epic disaster like Dolores talks about here in my favorite song of hers Zombie.
This song has more meaning than all the songs combined in the last 10 years which unfortunately says something about where are species has been heading since 1916 like she said in this powerful song just like my other meaningful favorite song from 1994 Keep talking from Pink Floyd which are society has stopped for along time now and if we don't wake up fast there will be another World War if we keep up the track we're heading on it's a recipe for catastrophe on all levels now never thought possible in 2023 but like me and my WW2 veteran family members that are still alive think specially after the last 3 years if eye awakening moments of nobody saw coming until it was stearing us right in the face and we couldn't look away no more but unfortunately it was to late another massive war in Europe that could have been avoided from communication and diplomacy once again we chose poorly
It's like one my favorite songs Folks Keep Talking from my favorite bands Pink Floyd when Stephen Hawking did his famous Commercial in the 90s saying as long as Mankind keeps communicating the human race still has a chance to turn it around no matter how close we get to another catastrophic global disaster like now we face in 2023.
I basically stole the following pretty interesting facts about this iconic song from another reaction video and unfortunately I no longer know who the original author was.
May he forgive me.
"This is a bit late, but the video was shot during the tail end of what was called The Troubles. Those are real British soldiers in Belfast, Ireland and Irish children playing in the damaged buildings. Not actors. Same with the paintings and graffiti on the walls. Those were painted by people in Belfast. That part wasn't staged for the video. The videographer told authorities he was shooting a documentary so he could get the footage without getting into trouble. Dolores and the rest of the Cranberries wanted authentic images. They lived through the Troubles. And they very much wanted the violence to stop. On ALL sides. Best wishes.
It answers your 1916 questions and many others. "Delores was inspired to write this due to the deaths of 2 young boys in Warrington, England on March 25, 1993... 3y/o Jonathan Ball and 12y/o Timothy Parry were innocently playing in the streets when 2 bombs, hidden in separate trash cans, went off. (54 other innocent by-standers were injured as well) The bombs were hidden there by the IRA (Irish Republican Army), as part of the long-standing War between Great Britain and Northern Ireland (over territory). Religion ended up entering into it, so of course it sort of became a war between Catholics vs. Protestants as well (that's partly why she's standing at the crucifix in the video). The War was/is known as "The Troubles". In case anyone is interested, here are some important facts about the song and the reason it was written. I'm hoping maybe it'll help those who don't know, to understand the images in the video...
1.) The title is self-explanatory, and you absolutely understood it correctly Biz!! It's NOT about any one specific person (as some seem to think)... Zombies are "mindless" by definition. Delores found the word "Zombie" fitting for those committing mindless, atrocious acts on fellow humans during war.
2.) The disagreement which led to "The Troubles", started in 1916. HENCE THE LINE: "It's the same old theme since 1916". It had become a near civil war with 24/7military presence on the streets. Delores herself grew up under those conditions...
3.) The boys didn't die instantly. Hence the opening line: "Another head hangs lowly, child is SLOWLY taken"..... Little 3y/o Jonathan and 12y/o Timothy both passed SLOWLY, days later, after suffering horrifically.
4.) It's INTENTIONAL when she says "Bombs" TWICE in the chorus. It's in honor of Jonathan and Timothy.... there were TWO of them and they were killed by TWO separate bombs. That's why the chorus is: "and their bombs, and their bombs". One bomb for each boy....
5.) The line: "But you see, it's not me, it's not my family" was because Delores was Irish, and the Irish Republican Army (IRA) planted the bombs that killed the boys SOOOO in turn.... the Irish people as a whole, were blamed and even hated for their deaths and the injuries to the 54 other people"
That style of singing you're hearing, the wailing, the sadness and grief in it is "keening" , Keening was a vocal ritual artform, performed at the wake or graveside in mourning of the dead. Keens are said to have contained raw unearthly emotion, spontaneous word, repeated motifs, crying and elements of song."
It's about Ira politics
Dolores had too much empathy, she felt the weight of whole planet. Sometimes that becomes unbearable.
This song....its so so ....😪
Another reactor asking for context from his viewers. It is so disappointing.
