In an interview Tommy Vex had said that he sent her the recording they did of the song and she loved it. So much she wanted to sing on it. They were not going to put it out when she passed and her family gave their blessing because Delores loved it that much.
I love Dolores O'Riordan's vocals, it is impossible to replace them as they are so haunting. But I gotta give it to Bad Wolves they took a different approach and it worked really well in this cover. It is a testament to a cover when I can listen to either or and be satisfied albeit for different reasons.
As someone who grew up in the cranberries era, this song was done perfectly by Bad Wolves. Saw them in concert and it’s definitely an experience. They did this song justice for sure. Dolores is smiling down from above.
Whenever i hear this tune the tears flow, Amazing cover by these guys but the background of it just gets me every time, Still can't believe she is gone. RIP Dolores
To take one of the greatest & most meaningful songs ever written & performed and for Bad Wolves to keep the true meaning of the song then add true power to it and make it a tribute to Dolores with the art & visuals is beyond unbelievable. GREAT job Bad Wolves. Its the best remake I've ever heard. RIP Dolores. Thank you so much for playing this and both of your great reactions.
Absolutely love Tommy Vext and it broke my heart when the label made him leave the band... edited to add he was literally homeless when they released this and still wanted the profits donated to the kids... he is all heart!
@@bentoenjes6553 not so much crazy as wanting people to think for themselves and not believe everything MSM tells them. Do you really think the media ever tells the whole truth?
Misty Michele No, but doctors sure as shit do. I don’t disagree with Tommy pointing out the hypocrisy of big businesses staying open while locals closed doors. That doesn’t mean masks and social distancing are horseshit. I’m not trying to be a dick here. I just want to point things out.
Furthermore, MSM seems to be a catch all term for ANY form of news people disagree with. I believe that most news organizations genuinely try to present “news” in the least biased form possible (organizations like NYT and WAPO)
@@bentoenjes6553 I actually agree on that I'm wearing masks, I already social distanced before Covid cause I don't like being around many people. I'll keep wearing my mask as long as I'm allowed to. Not because anyone told me to but because I think I should. The whole cancel someone because they don't agree with you is ridiculous.
Ive seen a few reactions to this cover and im so happy someone finally made the connection that delores was the golden figure in the original version and they used that to represent her in their cover
Love love love love your reaction! It was so authentic and from the heart. I still get chills when I watch the video, especially when you first see the lady in gold. What a powerful performance by Tommy Vext and the Bad Wolves. Your reaction was just as powerful. Thank you!
This cover has always torn me up, not only because it's excellent but the reason behind them doing it, and doing the video this way..... a wonderful tribute and you know Delores was smiling down upon them.
The lead singer is Tommy Vext and has recently gone independent from the band bc they wanted to silence his political views and beliefs. He refused to hide his beliefs and even had a gofundme to be able to put out his music. He ended up raising so much that I seen on his Instagram he is planning to start a record label for the artist that get silenced or outlasted because their political views/beliefs don't align with hollywoods. Hes really a good soul. You guys should check out Chris Cornells acoustic live cover of "Nothing compares 2 U" His voice is amazing and he does it so effortlessly. RIP Chris 🙏 He was Chester from linkin parks bestfriend and "committed suicide" about a month or 2 before Chester did. Another good soul.
Bad Wolves done a strong and stirring rendition of this iconic song, but nothing beats the vocals of the original from the late, great Ms. O'Riordan. Tons of respect to the band for not just doing what they wanted and actually requesting permission from the family first and then going a step further to return the proceeds to her family. Speaks volumes to the type of people they are.
You guys should check out bad wolves song "remember when" its about the lead singer Tommy Vext and his twin brother who nearly beat him to death back in the early 2000s
I can't see this without sobbing. I was SO upset when I found out Dolores died (I had the original Cranberries album. Good lord I MISS HER!) Thank you for this reaction.
Zombie was the first song that opened my eyes to Alternative rock when I was a kid, and I have always loved the Cranberries since then. Zombie is so iconic that no one dared to sing it. So when I saw the thumbnail of this MV by Bad Wolves, I said to myself " This is one bold move by an unknown band" and I was quite skeptical.. but then that golden lady suddenly gave me chills that I suddenly missed her.
The fact Eminem Dropped Revival December 15th, 2017, and he sampled the chorus and guitars of Dolores for his song in your head. Then January 15th, 2018 she was going to sing with Bad Wolves but passed. Timing was crazy but she’s definitely missed!!
You know since we never got the opportunity to hear Dolores with Bad Wolves in this song because of her tragic passing I would love to see somebody make some sort of mash up of the two versions I think that could be really cool
I am so glad you guys did this reaction. I think they did an amazing job with this. On a bit of a funny note, I listen to music on my motorcycle while riding and this song came on and I almost crashed caused I started to headbang while riding one day. It was quite entertaining (after the fact lol). I love this song and a couple others by them as well. They are a great band!
Damn....the window love gets me every time. Such a tragic loss but what a beautiful cover and an even more beautiful (yet simplistic) video tribute. I do wonder how their collab would have sounded but since we cant have that, I feel blessed that we even have this. Much love to her family. RIP
Thank you very much for this reaction!!! You guys felt the exact same thing I felt when I first watched it. I still get goosebumps every time I watch it!
His name is Tommy Vext he is no longer with the band but he has some amazing cover songs on youtube. He also filled in for Ivan Moody of Five Finger Death Punch while he was in rehab.
The Cranberries were a huge part of my child hood, it was the beginning of what I loved about music. Her sound, her uniqueness, gave me some real strange form of strength. Some of the most recognised songs next to Zombie, is Dreams, Ode to my Family and Linger.
I read somewhere that on the day of filming this video the band was unaware there would be a woman in gold to represent Delores. When she walked on set they broke into tears. She never said a single word that whole day.
Tommy Vex was the singer of Bad Wolves. The band kicked him out of the band due to his views being different than the other guys in the band. It's a real shame and they'll never be the same without Tommy Vex.
LOOOOVE Bad Wolves. Was so bummed last year because I had fab tickets to Disturbed/Staind/Bad Wolves until COVID hit. Amazing vocalist, killer music! I recommend their song Killing Me Slowly.
its almost like dolores found piece the moment she heared her message was getting told again. lets hope some other band covers it in like 5 or 10 years cause this message is still fresh but on other parts of the world.
This video. I've been watching music videos 30 yrs. This is the most moving I have seen. Totally speechless. She wrote her death date in gold paint. At the end she was covered so they could no longer see her, yet she can still hear her song on other side as she walks away. Man this one's way too deep.
I really despise cover song because music should be authentic. But this was incredibly well done, emotional and Tommy Vext truly did justice to her vocals. The band was on point. The metal twist to a rock song actually enhanced her vision. That is special. Great reaction. Thanks.
I knew y’all would love and appreciate this!!! His name is Tommy Vext....his twin brother is in prison for committing a home invasion on his own house when they were kids and hurt Tommy pretty badly.....Bad Wolves does a song about it called Remember When that’s pretty emotional as well!!!! I love y’all, ur my favorite reactors ♥️
I am soooooo glad y'all reacted to this song!! One of my all-time faves! So powerful, yet so sad with the story of what happened! RIP Delores🙏Bad Wolves are so great and there is a duet that's called 'Can You Hear Me Now! Its beautiful too! Hopefully u can check it out! Thanks for this one tho!✌❤
Yup, that's Dolores "on the other side". Notice how she closes it up at the end, as to say, I'm at peace now. Also, did you notice how they updated the lyrics for 2018 to say "the same old theme in 2018" and "your guns and your bombs and your drones and your drones". Or something like that. 😘
Just watched the Rock Feed video on this... too bad, they had a great chemistry as far as talent. I think it was a "too many Chiefs" issue I think.. and also had to do with politics. Some members were Biden supporters and some were Trump supporters.. sux that such a great band could break up like that
I love the cranberrys. I love your reactions you're so sweet and humble you're beautiful people. Bad wolves lost their lead singer Tommy Vext when he unfortunately left the Bad Wolves, I love the bad wolves ill definitely miss Tommy but I'll continue to listen if hes replaced, i hope he continues singing his voice is pure gold.
In an interview Tommy Vex had said that he sent her the recording they did of the song and she loved it. So much she wanted to sing on it. They were not going to put it out when she passed and her family gave their blessing because Delores loved it that much.
She died heading to meet bad wolves to sing with him
@@tjbowhunting82 it was the morning she was suppose to sing with them that they found her dead
She died in a hotel bath the day going to record
The band gave all the profits to her children
I heard a rumor that she did indeed record with them but that her estate refused to release the records. I don't believe that for a minute.
Keep bumping this comment. It is true.
I love Dolores O'Riordan's vocals, it is impossible to replace them as they are so haunting. But I gotta give it to Bad Wolves they took a different approach and it worked really well in this cover. It is a testament to a cover when I can listen to either or and be satisfied albeit for different reasons.
I can watch your reaction over and over again. Such respect.
As someone who grew up in the cranberries era, this song was done perfectly by Bad Wolves. Saw them in concert and it’s definitely an experience. They did this song justice for sure. Dolores is smiling down from above.
Its impossible to keep the tears away to this song, original or cover. Great reaction guys ❤
Agree
Tommy Vext has "that" voice! Sad that he left Bad Wolves, but glad he's still putting out music
He was amazing in Divine Heresy with Dino Cazares from Fear Factory.
I didn't know he left 😢
I love you two so much you're absolutely beautiful people. Im a huge cranberrys fan i love bad wolves.
Whenever i hear this tune the tears flow, Amazing cover by these guys but the background of it just gets me every time, Still can't believe she is gone. RIP Dolores

This was a beautiful tribute to the song and dolores. That guitar solo had do much raw strength and emotions in it too.
Absolutely love Tommy Vext and it broke my heart when the label made him leave the band... edited to add he was literally homeless when they released this and still wanted the profits donated to the kids... he is all heart!
He had apparently said some crazy things about Black Lives Matter and the Covid Lockdown.

Just amazing.What a great job.Brought me to tears seeing her behind the glass.
Ive seen a few reactions to this cover and im so happy someone finally made the connection that delores was the golden figure in the original version and they used that to represent her in their cover
One of the few song that do justice to the og, like sound of sliece a masterpiece cover, RIP Dolores.
Love love love love your reaction! It was so authentic and from the heart. I still get chills when I watch the video, especially when you first see the lady in gold. What a powerful performance by Tommy Vext and the Bad Wolves. Your reaction was just as powerful. Thank you!

An excellent homage, that gave equal vibes.
Next should def. be "Remember when" by Bad wolves. Hell of a back story on that one and a great song
Probably one of the best tributes ever!!!! The lead singer nails this epic song!
Shawn you crossed yourself when you read
Dolores had passed away that earned my respect
great reaction to a fantastic cover
Peace Love from the UK
When Dolores and the cranberries put this out it was a cry and plea for understanding and help... When badwolves covered it, it was a demand.
Yup, not quite an ugly cry but tears for sure! One of the best tributes given! Love it.
What an awesome tribute. And very COOL of them to donate the proceeds
You guys man brought me a tear to my eye RIP another Angel DOR
Love this song so much. They paid such respect, did it justice.

Tommy Vext is a good dude. I’ve met him before. He’s super nice. Awesome singer.
I've never heard of the bad wolves but on first hearing they are amazing
. What a tribute to Dolores! I'll now be checking them out.
STOP WAR!!! LOVE IS THE ONLY THING THAT'S COUNT.
You guys should check out bad wolves song "remember when" its about the lead singer Tommy Vext and his twin brother who nearly beat him to death back in the early 2000s
Tommy and bad wolves split ways
@@johnchirillo3950 I had heard that..The song he just did with jellyroll, struggle jennings and yelawolf was awsome though "winds of change"
@@johnchirillo3950 They didnt exactly split ways. He was forced out of the band by cancel culture because he supported Trump.
@@TheAutophage that is still them splitting.
@@johnchirillo3950 Not exactly. I wouldn't describe being blackmailed out of your own band as "splitting ways".
Love you two!!!!! Thank you for an awesome piece of time! Kisses. Stay safe
I can't see this without sobbing. I was SO upset when I found out Dolores died (I had the original Cranberries album. Good lord I MISS HER!) Thank you for this reaction.
GOOD BYE 👋 DELORES RIP 🙏 GREAT COVER LOVE YOU TWO SAND M FOR LIFE
No one else could have covered this better than Bad Wolves 🔥
RIP Delores 💔
Total Badass RIP Dolores Forever
That solo just gave me goosebumps

Wonderful as always! Aging myself here, but I was in HS when the original came out. Changed my life.
Fantastic cover by them.
Thank you guys so much for checking this one out.

love from Ireland, our day will come ,black Americans we rise together

They knocked this cover outta the park. No question!
the first time i saw that vid and the pretend Delores put the date of death on the glass,i cried like a little girl.
They sure did her justice! RIP Dolores!
Damn....the window love gets me every time. Such a tragic loss but what a beautiful cover and an even more beautiful (yet simplistic) video tribute. I do wonder how their collab would have sounded but since we cant have that, I feel blessed that we even have this. Much love to her family. RIP
Another great reaction video yall. Such a beautiful song, bad wolves cover is phenomenal. RIP to Dolores missed but never forgotten..🤘🔥🔥💙
Kudos to you for getting the meaning of the lady in gold 👍
Original: mournful and pleading
Cover: angry and pained
Just like Sound of Silence
Great Tribute for Dolores....
Thank you very much for this reaction!!! You guys felt the exact same thing I felt when I first watched it. I still get goosebumps every time I watch it!

they did a good job with this....very good
Dolores was due to come into the studio to sing on this track , she passed away the night before 🥲
I love watching videos with you guys. I love your genuine appreciation for all music.
It's so great that you were familiar with the original video and appreciated the connection and respect for Dolores. ❤️
Such a beautiful song and singer...
But a very good tribute for heŕ.
Happy Valentine Day and as always... good vibes from France
Great song! Bad wolves are special
I ALWAYS loved this song!!!! TFS y'all 👊✌️👍
Tommy Vext, the lead singer, is just an amazing human being and one of the best voices going.
The Cranberries were a huge part of my child hood, it was the beginning of what I loved about music. Her sound, her uniqueness, gave me some real strange form of strength.
Some of the most recognised songs next to Zombie, is Dreams, Ode to my Family and Linger.
Been introduced to this version by your channel, love the soul in his voice, amazing version R.I.P Delores x
I read somewhere that on the day of filming this video the band was unaware there would be a woman in gold to represent Delores. When she walked on set they broke into tears. She never said a single word that whole day.

Perfect rendition.
Wait, wait! I paused the video, wait.... I'm so freaking excited for y'all to see this. You're really gonna feel this.... literally feel it! 3, 2, 1
its almost like dolores found piece the moment she heared her message was getting told again. lets hope some other band covers it in like 5 or 10 years cause this message is still fresh but on other parts of the world.

Their lead singer is Tommy Vext.
At least he was. Tommy left the band recently.
What was the reasoning? Do you know?
Just watched the Rock Feed video on this... too bad, they had a great chemistry as far as talent. I think it was a "too many Chiefs" issue I think.. and also had to do with politics. Some members were Biden supporters and some were Trump supporters.. sux that such a great band could break up like that
Tommy Vext is the Lead singer of Bad Wolves. DOLORES was meant to be the one in gold. She was an amazingly beautiful lady. Much Respect.🥰💞
Love watching yall
