POLO, here's the original version by Dolores (RIP) 😢. Posted on 06/2009 with over 1.3 Billion views. th-cam.com/video/6Ejga4kJUts/w-d-xo.html As others have stated; she was supposed to be there to do this song with them. Also, ALL of the proceeds from this song goes to her children/family 👍👏
And I think the cultural relevance is lost in this version, but her voice and accent and imagery from the original really makes it hit you in the feels more
@@xejanfan When I hear the original version I think of an Irish band rising awareness to the world about the troubles, when I hear this version, I think of an American radio rock band trying to get a top 40 hit. Nothing against Bad Wolves, no band can ever recreate that during a period in time.
Hope you check out some Cranberries some day there's really no other band like them, Dolores's vocals alone are a treat, so many great tracks to choose from, I like Yellow Skies
As someone old enough to remember the events that this song is about the original always chilled me to the bone. It was a beautiful tribute to a horrible time. So when I saw this video my first reaction was this cover will suck but after seeing the intro text they did the right thing and it was a stunning tribute. R.I.P. Dolores and thank you for giving us your unique voice to remember you by.
I just love this video and song they truly did it justice. And paid a beautiful tribute to Delores. Love the original version by the Cranberries also. Enjoyed your reaction.
I'm usually in the 'original is better than a cover' crowd, but on this song, it's unfair to make that qualification in my opinion. It was and remains not only a powerful song, but a beautiful tribute to another talent gone from this world too soon.
As someone who suffers from PTSD I understand her composition of this song. They did an awesome job of bringing this song back to life... the lyrics still ring true. 😔
the video is also a tribute...in the original video Delores is in gold paint....so its supposed to be her on the other side...to those complaining about the 'goodness' of this cover, remember, Delores herself LOVED their cover...you can not like it, preferring herself...but, calling it trash is just wrong
This is right up there with the original by The Cranberries with the powerhouse that was Dolores. The video is paying homage to the original video as well. The story behind is tragic. The bombing in England that killed two little boys. Her phrase "It's not me, it's not my family." The IRA claimed that the bombings were for the Irish people and that was her response.
This and Sound of Silence are two of my top three covers of all time. Along with The Weeknd’s cover of Dorty Diana. This song makes me tear up every single time. I grew up on the Cranberries. Whatever is more than a just a tribute is what this is. RIP Dolores 🖤
@@NPK476 The video was nothing but a tribute, number one. Number two, it obviously wasn’t fully recorded considering she died the day she was supposed to record.
great video---I am so bummed that Tommy and the band split up over personal conflicts...all the stuff from this album is great "Remember When" was an AWESOME hit song...
I know everyone is blowing you up about Delores. Yes she was iconic and beautiful and all. Goes without saying. I want to take a minute to point out the ESP "EII" Horizon guitar that does the solo. Everyone wants that solo to be a little longer. Know why? And the overall metal tone of the song... know why? ESP. They are built for metal, in the right hands they are works of art. Can I get a Amen?!
the former lead singer (in this song) Tommy Vext recently did a really powerful cover of Crawling by Linkin Park but slowed down & on piano you should check it out
Yup Unfortunately brother you are old enough to understand this just like this Bad Wolves Version of Zombie and the Legendary 90s most popular Original and most meaningful one that started it all are both way 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 avoided. But Unfortunately for the human race history continues to repeat itself like Dolores says since 1916 were still fighting and dieing now in 2023 with the War in Eastern Europe with no end in sight and humans dieing in the thousands and kids to now either growing up without a whole family father or brother Dolores message is the same once again they are dieing it's like my WW2 family members that's left says if we're not careful will be heading into another world war it's like 1937 all over again before WW2 started now in 2023 all the ingredients are there just different players politics and events the message and outcome always stays the same unfortunately in these uncertain times we live in now during a World Pandemic and Civil Unrest at Home where democracy and everything is on the line this time if the wrong people get back into power and make another catastrophic mess were still cleaning up
I just started watching you recently, I love seeing you react to alllll the TOOL. They're my favorite band of all time. But, saying that, you HAVE to check out Sleep Token the Summoning! I think youd enjoy the vibe of it.
I don’t particularly adore the sound of this version, even the lyric change/addition works, but it’s not as emotional as when the Cranberries would perform it. Especially when you remember those people lived through the effects of The Troubles that this is written from. I love the tribute so much though, pretty damn cool how they incorporated the original video. This is definitely a lot better than the Sound of Silence one, yuck.
I feel sorry for you reactors because you don't know any better. I can't understand the reason people are requesting covers first of legendary music. Really?
I hit the down and am not listening. I don't understand the disconnect with someone reacting to a video asking their viewers to like before seeing their video. It's hypocritical and stupid.
I can't listen to this song anymore now that I've seen how the band treated the singer ... they kicked him out of the band because he said he was going to vote for Trump.
The original. Nothing against this band.. I had people tell me "this is a great song" u said yes it is have you heard of the Cranberries. "No this is original" Sorry it isnt the original.. She sung and wrote a out the IRA. Thumbs down. Listen to the original 1st
This is an inferior cover. And I don't say that just because it's a cover. Some covers are amazing. But seriously, it's time you checked out the Cranberries.

That Bad Wolves donated proceeds from this cover to Dolores's children, that's the part that really gets to me.
Oh wow, I didn't know that. Very cool.
@@AK00777it literally says it in the beginning of the video.
@@CornholeWithAdrenalineoh, thanks. I couldn't make out what that said.
Not to mention this song made more than all their music out together, and they still did it.
Now you have no choice but to react to the Cranberries original. I look forward to it!
A truly epic and emotional piece.
Yes, if only to understand the symbolism of the Dolores figure in gold.
Like, she was supposed to lend her vocals, but this figure in gold is stuck beyond glass, like the Veil past which she traveled.
This right here is facts, he will be shook to his core
Yeah. This song is whack compared to the original. Frog Leap studio does it even better
@@derekhatton7799 Nobody does it better.
R.I.P Dolores a truly unique and beautiful Irish voice 💚🇮🇪 the original song with the video will shake you to your core
RIP Dolores 🙏. This song always hits me in the feels. Whether the original or this cover, I just love it.
It's a good cover but like most stated, the original with Dolores was so powerful.

Check out the original. No one has a voice like Dolores O'Riordan.
And I think the cultural relevance is lost in this version, but her voice and accent and imagery from the original really makes it hit you in the feels more

What a fantastic tribute to a phenomenal song
Hope you check out some Cranberries some day there's really no other band like them, Dolores's vocals alone are a treat, so many great tracks to choose from, I like Yellow Skies
Thank you so much dude. Your reaction to this song was very honest. 👍🤟. Thank you. Take care and be safe. Keep rokin 🤟
Whoever requested this before the original should be shamed publicly
I absolutely agree. Just like they requested No Quarter, Tool instead of Led Zeppelin!
As someone old enough to remember the events that this song is about the original always chilled me to the bone. It was a beautiful tribute to a horrible time. So when I saw this video my first reaction was this cover will suck but after seeing the intro text they did the right thing and it was a stunning tribute. R.I.P.

This is a beautiful cover of such a classic heartfelt song. #RIP Dolores

I used to do this song at karaoke and evertime I did I would give out the website to donate to the go fund me for her kids
This is right up there with the original by The Cranberries with the powerhouse that was Dolores.
The video is paying homage to the original video as well.
The story behind is tragic. The bombing in England that killed two little boys.
Her phrase "It's not me, it's not my family."
The IRA claimed that the bombings were for the Irish people and that was her response.
I will never feel anything other than that Delores was a tool held by the hand of God when she preformed this song…. RIP Delores
Nice cover, but there is something magical about the original.
This and Sound of Silence are two of my top three covers of all time. Along with The Weeknd’s cover of Dorty Diana. This song makes me tear up every single time. I grew up on the Cranberries. Whatever is more than a just a tribute is what this is. RIP Dolores 🖤
How is it a tribute though? They recorded it when Dolores was still alive.
@@NPK476 The video was nothing but a tribute, number one. Number two, it obviously wasn’t fully recorded considering she died the day she was supposed to record.
@@SparkimusPrime She was supposed to record the song with them? Ahh I didn't know that.
@@NPK476 Yeah the message in the beginning of the video explains what happened.
For myself, I will add the cover of "Careless Whisper" by Seether
I don't normally cry when a star pisses but I did the day Dolores music died
☮️💙💙💙miss you Dolores!
Such a Amazing song
I saw them open up for five finger death punch a few years ago. This was their closing song. They killed it live
Was a Great Concert.
RIP to the great Dolores O’Riordan
Its always that drum drop.
This cover was something else,, great reaction
You should listen to him play "Malaguena" for a real measure of his talent.
Oh, I was hoping you'd get to this one!
I wish people would request the original
not as good as original but a good tribute
great video---I am so bummed that Tommy and the band split up over personal conflicts...all the stuff from this album is great "Remember When" was an AWESOME hit song...
You must react to the real song zombie Craberries. We lost the must beautiful person voice that day.
Grate reaction🙌🙌 You gotta do officer down and remember when by bad wolves
Thanks for this. Such an amazing cover!

Wrong Side of Heaven by Five Finger Death Punch is one about the U.S. troops and Vets that can hit you in the feels also.
Check out lead singer, Tommy Vext's, solo music. Good stuff.
And that leads me straight to Daria's Stavrovich version of Zombie. Nothing beats that
Outstanding. I wondered if someone would suggest this cover of Zombie
I love the way u were quietly listening through whole song b4 commenting
💜🩷💜🩷thnks!
You know a song is captivating when Polo doesn't pause it.
Another great tribute song is Jorn - Song for Ronnie James.
Always enjoy your videos thank you 😊
I hate when covers are the first time reaction. Should always hear the original first.
Ice Nine Kills - Farewell II Flesh
A nice tribute, but nothing beats the original.
I just started watching you recently, I love seeing you react to alllll the TOOL. They're my favorite band of all time. But, saying that, you HAVE to check out Sleep Token the Summoning! I think youd enjoy the vibe of it.
Who's cutting onions again.
Great reaction!! Excellent tribute to the Cranberries. Unless there's been a change, the lead singer split from the band.
I thought they completely disbanded
Sorry, but this version just doesn't cut it.
I don’t particularly adore the sound of this version, even the lyric change/addition works, but it’s not as emotional as when the Cranberries would perform it. Especially when you remember those people lived through the effects of The Troubles that this is written from. I love the tribute so much though, pretty damn cool how they incorporated the original video. This is definitely a lot better than the Sound of Silence one, yuck.
Oops he forgot to pause
Should have been the orginal.
Five Finger Death Punch cover of The Off Spring - Far Away .... not as good as original but worth a check out.
Uggggh I got so excited ur reacting to The cranberries very disappointed! This song should never be covered ever!
This is such a generic, throwaway cover. It saddens me to think that anyone anywhere has heard this version before the original. 😔
Agreed. This guy has a TERRIBLE group of people recommending him songs.
Sorry again... must do the original and the best, especially as Dolores O'Riordan is no longer with us. The Cranberries, Zombie
Too bad the singer lost his marbles
I feel sorry for you reactors because you don't know any better. I can't understand the reason people are requesting covers first of legendary music. Really?
The original is much better, Its sacrilege to not here the original first
Try to first listen to an original, and than the cover.. you could understand it better
I hit the down and am not listening. I don't understand the disconnect with someone reacting to a video asking their viewers to like before seeing their video. It's hypocritical and stupid.
I can't listen to this song anymore now that I've seen how the band treated the singer ... they kicked him out of the band because he said he was going to vote for Trump.
Sorry man but that sounds horrible compared to the original. Just my opinion. Love your reactions tho
You are correct, this is offensive garbage. Anyone who likes this has worthless taste in music.
The original. Nothing against this band.. I had people tell me "this is a great song" u said yes it is have you heard of the Cranberries. "No this is original" Sorry it isnt the original.. She sung and wrote a out the IRA. Thumbs down. Listen to the original 1st
worst reaction ever. never said a word for more then half the song 😂
This is an inferior cover. And I don't say that just because it's a cover. Some covers are amazing. But seriously, it's time you checked out the Cranberries.
