I discovered the Cranberries from the Real World 3 (San Francisco) in the early 90s. It was one the songs they played and I needed to find out who sang it. Back then Google didn't exist. Finally I found it and discovered them. Delores' voice is like no other.
I remember being like 13 or 14 laying on my bedroom floor, going from this song, to Inin Kamoze, to Pearl Jam and Bone Thugs. 30 years later, they are all still good.
Spot on Corey! The video was filmed in the genre of “film noir”. The older guy in the hat, flashlight and camera is a private detective hired by the girl to find out who her boyfriend is cheating with. It was one of the first songs the band completed after Delores joined, when they were just in their late teens. It's a tale of love, deceit and the lingering feelings of desire for an impossible relationship, an impossible situation, and an impossible partner who broke the contract of love.
This is THAT song for me. First heartbreak. Like you, I wasn't into this kind of music back then either but when I hear it I'm right back crying in 1994.
Have yall listened to anything by Brandi Carlile yet?? She will blow you away! Check out The Joke mv or the live performance at the Grammys (considered to be the best performance ever done at the grammys)
The Cranberries are a band that must be experienced live. Dolores was a giant. Their live performances are where it’s at. And there are some great concert footage of all their songs. Good hunting.
This was the first import cd I ever bought. Lots of great tracks on it. And then months later it was in heavy rotation. You could EASILY see someone today sampling a section of this gem and have it meander lightly in the background. Not so much like Dido's "Thank you" but y'now... Also, I completely agree with what you said about the video. Back then videos were the biggest if not the main way to market a band. SO MANY bands I would feel sorry for because the vid just showed them in such a tight 'niche' and so many people would never look twice at bands like that.
The video was sweet. he concept was cooler than the other side of my pillow. I doubt that the video hurt the song. They were, after all, competing with artists such as Prince and Mariah Carey.
Agree with you, Corey. im I Irish and never got the video. A simpler boy girl video would of got in higher in the charts when everyone watched MTV. It ended up to Artsy , Dolores was one of a kind and a great artist.
I frickin' love this channel. Rap, Punk, R&B, Opera etc. are just labels. Good music is good music. If it's made well, sung well it's good. Simple as that. Here are some suggestions gentlemen. Opera: Queen of the Night Aria - Sung by Diana Damrau. Or O Helga Natt - sung by Jussi Bjorling Country: Anything by Sons of the Pioneers but especially Tumbling Tumbleweeds, Water and "The Searchers" theme. Classical: Rhapsody on a Theme - Rachmaninoff composer. Jazz (specifically Japanese Jazz): Breeze - By Jiiro Inagaki & Soul Media. (It's an instrumental so no worries about trying to figure out what they are saying.
Great debate, Cranberries had 2 "kinda laid back, softer" hits. This and "Dreams". The debate is, which one is better? I guess you got to do "Dreams" next.
@@bastark6926 im in canada too, if you check Wikipedia Ode to my family and When you're gone both charted better than Dreams. They have so many good songs.
It's funny to hear this was "their first major hit' just because it charted on the Billboard chart. Frankly, Zombie is recognised as their greatest song in the rest of the world. And I think the rest of the world is slightly larger than the US. Not to say this isn't a great song. It is.
What a sensation she was. Dolores O'Riordan. Much like Amy Winehouse, Dolores would die at the very young age of 46 from drowning due to alcohol intoxication in January 2018. So sad. Her depression got the best of her like it does all of us. Her beautiful voice lives on.

This demo was her audition to become the lead singer of The Cramberries
I love this song. My one criticism is that her singing is very low volume and hard to hear. The sound engineering could use some improvement.
Everything about Deloris was just so beautiful. 😢
Delores, passed away in 2018…great artist…loved their music
RIP DELORES!
Delores had the voice of an angel.
RIP Delores
We miss you
🇮🇪🤝🇵🇸✊️💚🕊
Ode to My Family, if you REALLY want to hear some incredible singing and keening from Dolores.
Before I even listen. Rip Delores. Just the most lovely voice from my time.
I was just a toddler back in the 60's but this video gives me images of the 1960's .
Beautiful song. So sad she passed away
This is one of their oldest tunes. They were playing it at least two years before they put out their first album in '93. R.I.P. Delores O'Riordan♥

Corey man… you have such a joyful face… right on. Love watching the three wise men…
Rest In Peace Dolores.
I love her voice!!

I'm one of the weirdos who truly loves and appreciates the Film Noir aesthetic of this video #stunning
I don't think a different Video would have made a difference in it's Chart position as Ollie alluded too. I agree with the "film Noir" aspect too.

long live the 90's
Ode to my Family or No Need to Argue should be one of your next ones by them.
Another good song 🎵 👌
Such a gorgeous voice.
Absolutely love the song, the video so much.
But yes, she is easy on the eyes. Glad you agree about the video! Nice.
RIP Delores!!! Cranberries are phenomenal
Takes me back to spring ‘94 with my now husband, really happy memories. We’ve been together 30 years now and married for 18 😊
You have to do "Ode to My Family" Just stunning. Like Simon and Garfunkel, just storytelling at it's best.
Have yall listened to anything by Brandi Carlile yet?? She will blow you away! Check out The Joke mv or the live performance at the Grammys (considered to be the best performance ever done at the grammys)
That last shot in the video with Delores closing the door behind her...just hurts my heart every time. We lost her far too early.
Check out "ODE TO MY FAMILY". Dolores O' Riordan (pronounced o' rear dan) was so Amazing!! RIP Dolores.
Such an elegant track ❤
☮️💙💙💙🔥🔥miss you Dolores😞
RIP Delores
I remember waiting on the video to come on mtv. It hit home for me even tho i was young and thought I knew about love and pain
Love this song, my favorite song of theirs is dreams. I think you will really like it.
I remember those days... Cranberries... absolutely brilliant! OMG! What a meteor across the sky they were!
Poor baby girl😢 oh way to soon, so many songs left unsung
The Cranberries are a band that must be experienced live. Dolores was a giant. Their live performances are where it’s at. And there are some great concert footage of all their songs. Good hunting.
Try “dreams” from the same album.
checkin in ... dreams is a very good upbeat song

i miss her so much😭😭
I totally agree. Wrong video for this song.
🔥
You should check out Dolores'es solo albums she released while away from the band theyre amazing
Oh, Dolores………
Great debate, Cranberries had 2 "kinda laid back, softer" hits. This and "Dreams". The debate is, which one is better? I guess you got to do "Dreams" next.
We will check it out!
Is "Ode to my family" in that category?
@@znk0r Not IMO, those 2 songs were the big hits that fit my description, at least here in Canada
@@bastark6926 im in canada too, if you check Wikipedia Ode to my family and When you're gone both charted better than Dreams. They have so many good songs.
Try Jimmy Barnes "Stone Cold."

Please react to REM's Everybody Hurts.
es DOLORES, amigos. Nombre católico hispano, la virgen de los dolores.
Corey is always on point. Respect.
Mr Corey, were you a teacher before? You look so familiar.
agree, the video was depressing...always thought that...
😁🤟🏼
Play champagne what about us
Good song, try Brian culbertson So Good.
She died in a hotel bathtub in London.
Good song , not their best but a good song. We used to sing did u have to let it linger when we cut cheese .
I like the song I did not like the video.
Mulva?
Try singing Linger in an Elmer Fudd voice…
Wingahhhh
Do you have to wet it wingahhhhh😅
Lingah when you have stink fingah.
