You cried! Good! -that means you are Human!
Mandatory vaccination ,warp speed by Donald Trump , will produce the zombies Because of its DNA changing Crisper technology in the vaccination, World War III is coming.
@@BO-rg3gc LOL!
hmmm human wrong human society will always kill each other it does not stop it from the beginning of time no matter what culture you are Man is the very person who is dangerous animal
there is very few humans a very small percentage who believes we have gone on the wrong path it seems knowledge is dangerous to thoes that want to use it or for political gain
power is for the one soul and not to be used against another.
It says let US make man in OUR own image Sir
@@adammccabe640 where was that saying from?
The way Dolores uses her voice is the traditional Irish mourning expression at funerals. How fitting and great and emotional.
It's called keening.
It is not. She uses the Irish yodel. You are referring to Keening, which is weeping and wailing.
@@christinerobinson9372 From wikipedia. O'Riordan is yodeling[48][36] when she does the sharp break[49] from chest register to head register-falsetto in the second syllable of the word Zom-bie.[48] These rapid and repeated changes in pitch in O’Riordan's yodel, paired with the amplified method that she uses to form her vowels and consonants,[48] set her voice in the sean-nós singing style.[50][48][36] A vocal trademark combined with the Gaelic keening,[51] the lilting vocables,[52] and sung in her thick Irish accent.
So it is a bit of both.
So you just made that up.
@@robschroeder5377 she’s from limerick (stab city -everyone over here calls it) they’ve a fairly heavy accent
The sad thing is that this song is still relevant, in every war zone, in every conflict, in every street quarrel, domestic violence.
Thank you for mentioning domestic violence. Far too many victims of that breed of zombie. I was one. WAS.
The little boys what struck the last nerve.
Every time people are divided by hate.
A street quarrel or domestic violence!!!!! 3000 lives were lost
@@pjdavidson94 yano
Don’t worry virtually everybody who saw this for the first time did exactly the same as you and had tears , it done it’s job , sadly the lead singer Dolores passed away in 2018 but she left behind such a beautiful legacy , great reaction
she was so young too💔
Dolores anniversary of transition was January 15th. I miss her so much. She sang about a lot of important matters. Way back when I had a dating profile it said " Must love The Cranberries " . Someone commented she had the voice of an angel. An angry angel but an angel nevertheless. The Irish are a strong people....terrible this happened for so long.
@@SakaIsMyDad Dont do drugs kids!
Only the first time? Heard/seen this song hundreds of times and it still chokes me up
@@mwfmtnman A lot of reactors are usually reacting to music out of their typical genre. This song is definitely gutting though. As is the loss of Delores who sang about important things.
This song broke through the noise and hate. It seemed like the first thing that the people in Northern Ireland and the people in Britain had agreed about in about eighty years. Stopping the fight was finally more important than winning it.
This. Beautifully put.
40 years of bloodshed
But still Ireland is not whole.
@@orvoloco8261 this song is not about that…. Alot of NI still want the union
@@oasis4life014 a union with Ireland, yes.
PS- yes it’s the war, but the beauty of her vocals is her keening (Irish ban sí signing). It’s the most emotional act a woman can undertake it our culture
Yes it's the keening element there. I know exactly what you mean very Irish, and a primordial weeping, keening. A baby could be born to that sound as well, it cuts through it all.
What 'war' was ever declared between the UK and Ireland? The 'Troubles' was not a 'war'! It was a vicious terrorist campaign launched by the IRA to try to force Northern Ireland to rejoin the Republic of Ireland! The IRA failed and over 3,500 people were killed as a result. Zombie is an anti IRA / terrorist protest song. The 'Zombies' are all those mindlessly carrying out senseless terrorist murders, such as the one referenced in the song - the IRA's Warrington bombing. Those 'brave' freedom fighters, the IRA, put a bomb in a shopping centre waste bin which exploded killing two innocent young boys who were walking past the bin!! Stop trying to call the terror campaign a 'war'! It was a terrorist campaign and only the Zombies want to keep it going!
@@mick1406 What a pile of crap. She, literally, gives you a date, in the song. 1916 isn't the "troubles", it's the Easter Uprising, leading to the Irish War of Independence ... yes, a war. And, the later IRA, during the "troubles", didn't have tanks, ffs. Who had the tanks in Northern Ireland? The British. And a British soldier was finally charged with murder, for killing a boy, during Operation Motorman (which used tanks).
@@mick1406and now those same murderers are running Ireland and selling it to the highest bidder .
Turns out they never had any principles after all.
I'm from Northern Ireland, and this song hit really hard, I could listen to her voice for ever, brilliant
And in England. Above the politics and above religion, we are human.
And I'm an American of both English and Irish ancestry; the suffering was just unbearable to watch from across the sea... We all know this could break out again at any time. Please in the name of all that is good, resist it and all those who would bring back the horror in every way you can...
same from republic of ireland
I was 11 when this came out. I didn't understand the context, but I still loved it. It definitely hits harder when you know what it's about.
It’s about “The Troubles”. Just look it up. Too much for a comment.
For a song to bring you to tears you realise the power of music & that you have just witnessed a classic.
R.I.P Dolores we miss you but your brilliance lives on forever.
I love that you've said: "What people had to go through just cause we all couldn't love each other." And I absolutley agree with you.
This shows actual footage of British soldiers in Northern Ireland in the early '90s; the "Troubles" had been ongoing since 1916 as referenced in the song.
Two young boys had gone to a shop to buy their mum a card for Mother's Day when the shopping area was fire bombed and the two brothers perished. It happened in 1993; The Cranberries recorded "Zombie" the following year.
I was one of those soldiers. Didn’t have a clue why I was there really
Actually, they weren't brothers. They died in two separate bombings, about a minute apart, in the English town of Warrington, Cheshire. Bombs planted by the IRA.
You’ve misunderstood some of the facts. The boys were unrelated and English. The IRA planted 2 bombs in dustbins in the street in Warrington. The boys were both killed (and 50 ish people injured). The IRA murdered many random people - men, women and children. The attacks were so unpredictable across England and NI, and entirely terrorist in action. As a child, I remember many of the news headlines, such as Warrington and Omagh. I remember being in Waterloo station and having to be evacuated because they found a device. Terrifying.
The British military acted disgustingly too - Derry is a prime example but there are many others. Neither side were noble, just or fair. The whole thing was futile and just fed derision and division in NI, with children conditioned to hate the British or to hate the Protestants/ Catholics in their own communities - hence the purpose and meaning of the song.
This song came out in the 90's. At that time the civil war in Bosnia was raging and I was a teenager back then growing up in Bosnia, this song made such an impact. The pain in this song is real.
The line 'it's not me, it's not my family' was her saying that even though she was from Ireland, the killings and bombings were not in her name nor represented all those who were Irish.
So true. The vast majority of people in the world are good, and just want to live peacefully. That very small percentage of the most fanatical, and the most greedy, bring suffering to everyone.
I don't know, I kinda interpreted it a bit different. I thought it was referring to the fractured mentality of humanity, in that as long as something isn't happening to us or those we care about, we really don't don't care to go any further.
i see it as more of just a call to cease fire on both ends. both the IRA and the english did completely awful things. theres no right or wrong side. its all based on perspective
@@dullahan7677 For context - the Cranberries released this just after the IRA bombed Warrington in the north of England in 1993, injuring 56 people and killing 2 young children. The visuals in the video represent perceived injustices on both sides of the sectarian divide - but the catalyst for the song and the video was the deaths of those tow children in Warrington and the desire to disavow it ("It's not me, it's not my family").
@@dullahan7677 That was my understand as well.
I think one of the more chilling and moving parts of this video is the fact the shots of the soldiers, the murals, blown up buildings ect it's all real. the director went and walked around filming before the band got there.
Those areas are/were very real. Growing up in North Belfast before we had computer gaming, etc and only about 2 hours of kid's tv after school we played outside a lot.
Every time I watch this video I can remember my friends and me playing around in the derelict houses.
Fun fact, when Dolores showed the band the song she wrote, she asked the drummer "Can you please hit the drums real hard?".... I think he did a good job on her request.
I am sending this video to the drummers wife who is very close to me
Here’s another wonderful reaction video, very different but his reaction is so real, so honest. Perhaps he would enjoy this too.
A MASTERPIECE!! | Mumble Rap Fan Listens To | The Cranberries - Zombie (REACTION!!)
m.ua-cam.com/video/Zh62zyq2vqU/v-deo.html
I get chills every time the children scream on the breakdown. Everytime without fail
The group said they wanted you to feel this song!
It's okay to let it out. I was crying right along with you. This is an incredibly powerful song sung by the incredibly powerful voice of Delores O'Riordan as a response to the death of 2 children who had been killed in an IRA bombing. Peace to the 400 year conflict between the Irish and British was finally brokered in the 1990s.
dont call it a british and irish conflict, it was 800 years of oppression. The late actions of paramilitaries doesn't make it anything else.
@@WookieWarriorz are you saying that oppression over centuries was the cause of death for the children which led to this video and not the paramilitaries who actually committed the act?
Really?
@@WookieWarriorz I stand corrected and should have been more accurate in my description. I didn't mean to minimize the lived experience in any way. I'm sorry
My 2 cousins were killed by an IRA bomb aged 2 and 4 and my aunty and uncle, I didn't know them, it was before I was born. Apparently the IRA thought it was just soldiers on the coach, not women and kids. Yeah, fantastic excuse tho
800 years bro
Legitimately one of the greatest tracks ever made.
28 years after this song was released and it still brings tears to my eyes
After Dolores passed I get a tear in my eye whenever I listen to any of her songs.
Listening to this song and seeing the people of Gaza and the little children suffering really broke me down.......i am now crying......feeling the pain of all the misery they are going through right now.
Thank you for your beautiful honest reaction. The Cranberries have a large catalog of beautiful music. Dolores always put 100% emotion into every song she sang. She had a way to make you feel what she was singing about that very few other musicians can do. She was not only a great musician, songwriter, and performer. She was also a terrific human being that cared about humanity. She was/is really something special.
Certain songs can leave you in bits afterwards and this is one of them.☘️
It’s a masterpiece, very much right up there with smells like teen spirit of the same era.
RIP Delores... Fantastic musician.
Agreed, tears ,amazing. Thank you.
I refuse to ignore the background noise. I realize that for you it might be a disturbance but for me it is amazing to hear such a foreign sound while you speak about your emotions relating to this song. For me it makes it even more poignant that even though we live different lives we can still relate to eachother on a very basic human level.
Aww! Thank you for your sweet comment. You’re a good person 🤗
You are a beautiful woman with a good heart. Excellent reaction you are correct life ought to be about love not war, you are a wise woman. Dolores was a fantastic singer her spirit lives on through her music. Best wishes from Ireland.
I’ve heard this song 1000 times and every time this video makes me damn near ball. You wouldn’t guess by looking at me lol. Delores has such a beautiful soul. She will never truly die.
Song makes me cry every time(literally!) Dolores write this for two boys!
The "troubles" in Northern Ireland are as deep, as they are long. God bless and keep the people of Ireland.
Thank you
Ironically, I never felt moved by this song until I understood what it was about. The lyrics had a completely different impact once I understood what the song was about. I just thought it was a good song with a good beat.
Since 1994, I almost always get tears when I hear the song - I know the background of the song. You are wonderfully emphatic ❤
I don't cry often but I cry almost every time I hear this song. Even after having just heard it.
Wow, for the first time with this song, it's really a beautiful reaction, full of humanity. Well done and thank you for having such a big heart 👏👏👏👍🌹💐🌺
I loved watching you showcase your emotions throughout this video. Your gorgeous face go from anticipation to full realization of the meaning of the song!!! Great reaction!!!!!
Thank you so much!!
We need more innocent and beautiful souls like you
If you're not touched by this song you are not a human being. I don't know how many times I've seen it over the years and I still have tears in my eyes......and even more tears when I see another human being that is moved by it. Thank you.
Wow, this song hits a lot different now that I’ve seen the footage from Ukraine. It’s hard to believe we keep having to go through this pain and learn these same lessons over and over again. May we find wisdom and kindness. 🙏🏻
Yep and the same old secret policemens ball .... Enforcing failed ideologies - political and religious, keep stamping on the hands and face of humanity and the planet .... as per George Orwell's experience, predictions and more.
Might be time for a Ginger track...?
Or Dakha Brakha .... Carpathian rap or Damn Yankee.
I hope they are outside the country ... 🤞🏼
Every war. There are other wars going on too. They're all terrible
... and we support an effort that is starving kids in Yemen. But that one we don't hear about very much. And the news cycle moves on and Afghanistan's problems are fading from our minds and the same has started happening with Ukraine. It's too awful to hang onto for long and survive.
Yes i agree,the Ukrainian governments genocide on the donbass people since 2014.
It happens every day since humans exist. Many other battlefields that are current and people are dying all the time. Not just Ukraine.
This is a powerful song, Dolores O'Riordan's singing is unique and exceptional.
The message in the song is so powerful that I'm not surprised to see the tears, proving you have a good heart.
RIP Dolores! The world needs you more now than ever!
After 25 yrs it still bring me to tears, (metal head from australia) lol.
Great reaction.. geve validation to people telling me back then i was listening to crap.. pure poetry with a seriouse education, which gave me heads up further in life.. thanks . Keep up the great reactions..
So you had the depth and understanding of music to appreciate more than one genre. Pffft. They missed out. I’m sorry you were hassled for that. It seems like something to be proud of to me. And you clearly have good taste.
This song seems to appeal to people into specific genres across the board, introducing them to something entirely new. Dolores’ voice has yet to leave anyone unmoved. She delivers the song like no one else, knowing when to pull back, when to let it all out, pulling you in with that voice, those words.
Given the war in Ukraine at the moment this song has more revelance now than ever!
Everyone gets emotional when they see this video & hears the song for the first time. It still gets to me after many times of listening & watching it.
How can any human be THIS BEAUTIFUL!?😳🔥
I'm from the North of Ireland and lived through this and absolute love this song
Feeling speechless after watching this video, is the appropriate response.
I dread war too.
And, I appreciate your emotional honesty.
Thank you.
The story of what inspired this song it's even more impacting. For mothers day two boys went out and bought their mother a card which they decided to mail as a surprise as they did the mailbox exploded from a mail bomb killing the boys. Delores being a mother wrote this song hoping no mother would have to experience this again. It was so impacting that a cease fire was agreed to days after the songs release.
The bombs were planted in metal rubbish bins, not mail boxes. The first one was set to go off at lunchtime in a bin right outside the front door to Boots the chemists, which sold perfumes, face creams and all that other crap mums like and was absolutely rammed with kids buying Mother's Day presents that day. Across the street was McDonald's too, which was always busy with kids at the weekend, but was especially busy that day. The second bomb was set to go off shortly after the first to catch the fleeing crowds in its blast.
I'd come out of Boots myself no more than a minute before the bomb planted outside went off, had my back to it and was almost at the top of Bridge Street, so I didn't see that one go off. I did see the crowds of people running down Bridge Street run straight into the path of the second one though. Given the time, day and the location, there is no way on Earth that I'll ever believe kids weren't deliberately targeted that day. You wouldn't have found a higher concentration of kids anywhere in Warrington than you would on Bridge Street when those bombs went off.
I’m from the Republic of Ireland, 40 years Old , thankfully I’ve never had to experience what was happening in the north of Ireland but it was always constantly on the news and papers etc., it was part of life. Thankfully there is peace there now.
Masterpiece! Nothing else to say. ❤
Their Video shows one thing! Humans never learn!
I grew up with this song because my parents love music from the 70s to 90s and this masterpiece was in every Playlist. Even if I wasn't able to remember all the songs I grew up with, this was the one I could never forget. As a child I didn't understand the lyrics because English isn't my native language but I couldn't forget all the emotions it made me feel. Nostalgia, grief, anger... Like a companion that had been there by my side since I was born and stays with me until I pass away.
Whenever I feel frustrated, sad or helpless and just want to scream but can't, I think of this song and feel comforted. Because someone managed to raise her voice in such a beautiful way.
😊 As always a wonderful reaction. Poor Northern Irland . Long war and the wall is still there in Belfast. Hope they will have peace one day.🌷🌷
One of the most impactful songs I've ever heard.
That you can not know about the atrocities that happened in Northern Ireland.. but feel the pain by this song.. is what music is all about!
God bless you!
I've seen this music video countless times and it still never fails to give me chills--- so powerful and poignant and hard to watch all at the same time. Truly a masterpiece.Your reaction reminds me of my own the first time I saw this video.
Don't worry about controlling emotions, that was never the intention of this song I believe. I'm a 35 year old guy and I cry whenever I hear this song.
Same dude, same. This world is so senseless.
@@STMYL2525 Good to hear I'm not the only one. And yes it really is, so sad.
Once again, I'm impressed by your ability to not only understand what the song is about, but to also FEEL what the song is about on your first listening. I subscribed to your channel because you stand out among all of the UA-cam reactors.
She was a great singer. RIP..
I'm from the UK but this music video also always reminds me of stories from an interview with a survivor of the Rwandan genocide who was a kid then but is now a adult & saw horrific things happen to her brothers, sisters & parents. similar parallels
Rwanda was so much crazier though. Horrible atrocities happened in Ireland and Britain during the troubles, but Rwanda was on another level. People hacking up neighbours with machetes.
as a british it should more remind u of the war the british brought zu ireland...
@@ansionnachbeagrioga5260 the Rwandan genocide was one of the worst things done by the British in modern times. But you can look at the Black and Tans and in India.
@@roryfleming2320done by the British? The whole thing was orchestrated by a Rwandan billionaire that had an axe to grind. (Well, machete in this case). What am I missing?
@@sebethspilseth9957 I made a mistake the Rwandan genocide was caused by Belgium and their colonies
The scene with little boys screaming, is too chilling and so well done to achieve that effect.
Your not only gorgeous you have an incredible soul. Thank the lord for people like you gives me hope the planet might be ok someday.
Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering.
War does not show who is right it only show who is left.
You just quoted Yoda from star wars 🙈
Your reaction is human...I think anyone who hears, sees and understands the song and video is gonna cry. I am so glad you understand the song. Dolores, the singer, unfortunately passed away the day before the re-release of what I believe was her greatest work. Other comments further down will explain the song in greater detail. Thank you for being you ❤
I really wish you watched the concert version of this song!!!... You would've appreciated how great Dolores O' Riordan really was!! And the crowd participation is AMAZING!! RIP Dolores O' Riordan
That concert version of Zombie is great version, but for someone who would first time heard this song I think that it is better to see it with music video first because they can then more easily pick up of the song. She would miss loads of meanings of the song with audience singing and basically missing some of most important parts of song.
@@madzec 100% right! Seeing the original video has so much more meaning.
This song is about 2 young boys killed by the I.R.A.. and about the troubles here in Northern Ireland before peace. This song is hard hitting I don't blame you for crying this means you're human you've a heart of gold
Your emotional reactions are so genuine and really beautiful. Thank you for sharing your heart. Beautiful!!
The entire "No Need to Argue" album is fantastic, all the songs are beautiful.
Listen to "DREAMS" by them as well (different album)
She was going through it when she wrote this one. Big emotions, well translated into words.
Actual insightful interpretation with genuine compassion, we are witnessing a solid human here.
Your authentic and emotional reaction is so appreciated
It's a powerful song, no doubt. No matter how many times I see the video, it hits hard emotionally every time. There are not many songs that can do that.
For me this song always felt like it was speaking to my family and community. Irish-Americans, especially in the north, were pretty much universally on the side of the IRA. and it felt like every actual Irish person is singing you don't know what you're talking about. You're not here, you don't see the damage. Which we didnt. We just supported the end goal of a unified Ireland
Yep my family was ira and fled Ireland to avoid the noose. This song makes me ashamed as an Irish American. .we dragged this fight out , we supported terrorism and we should have left Ireland be. 26+6 is Irelands business, not ours.
A unified Ireland that the people in the north didn't want. You supported terrorists.
I am not saying the British were blameless, but only one side left bombs in shopping centres and slaughtered children in Eniskillen.
@@keithhealing1115 What a completely twisted and dishonest take. Military reaction force literally murdering in unmarked cars in plain clothes, internment, sponsoring unionist terrorist forces, shooting protestors dead on the streets. Don't start your sentence with the suggestion you're being objective when you are very clearly not.
@@cpmc5400 never said I was objective. I was, however, being accurate. And I stated, very clearly, that the British were not blameless. However, only one side left bombs that killed families. If you can't accept that then maybe you are not as objective as you wish to be either.
@@keithhealing1115 I don't believe I denied that. But your point is about as useful as saying only one side was Irish. Only one side was a recognised government entity. Entirely pointless.
You are gorgeous and have a pure soul! Don't be afraid to cry, this song has a real message that everyone can relate to, I'm a 32 yr old Aussie male, and I've heard it 1000s of times and it always makes me cry, she had something so unique in her voice and message like nothing I've ever heard. RIP Dolores.
P.S "Linger" and "Dreams" are worth a listen.
Ode to my family is a masterpiece
seen some "reactions" of people trying to push tears out, or just "fake crying" to this song. Yours was real, you listend. Don't ever feel bad for showing real emotions, thats one of the best parts of beeing human.
The Northern Irish conflict were daily news in the 70’s and 80’s.
Religion is a hell of a thing if you take it too seriously.
The song wakes the same feelings in me as the tv-broadcasts did in my youth.
Your reactions touched me deeply. Makes me somehow wish I could hug you and comfort you. So genuine.
Thank you for that. 🙏🏼
Maybe you should do a reaction to Gerry Rafferty and his masterpiece “Baker Street”? I think that you feel the lyrics there too.
😘🇩🇰
Religion is a hell of a thing, no matter how seriously do you take it. The bible/quran are two of the worst books I have ever read.
Almost nightly on the news when I was a young fella.
@@ingobordewick6480 religion is certainly a big factor in this case, but colonialism, class, culture and national identity are also big factors. Things have got better, but there is still much progress to be made! Big love to all
its less to do with religion although the brutal treatment of specially Catholics in ireland was fucked, it was 800 years of English oppression regardless of religion.
The portrayal of the Troubles as a religious conflict is a product of English propaganda regarding the matter, though it is true most Nationalists (pro Union with Ireland) were Catholic and Unionists (pro Union with the UK) were Protestant, this was a war about politics and human rights, religion rarely ever came into it, and there were many Protestant Nationalists and (though fewer) Catholic Unionists.
Source: Lived through part of it, lol.
Thank you for a beautifully genuine reaction and analysis.
During a period known as 'the Troubles', an ethnonationalist conflict in Northern Ireland from the 1960s until 1998, more than 3,500 people died and tens of thousands were injured in the more than three decades of the complex and often brutal conflict. The IRA, which was devoted both to removing British forces from Northern Ireland and to unifying Ireland, killed almost 2,000 people during this time. During this time, over 10,000 bomb attacks were perpetrated in Northern Ireland, the Republic of Ireland and Great Britain, in an armed conflict fought between the Provisional IRA, the Ulster loyalist paramilitaries, and the British security forces.
This song was written in response to the death of Johnathan Ball, 3, and Tim Parry, 12, who had been killed in the IRA bombing in Warrington, northwest England, when two devices hidden in litter bins were detonated. Ball died at the scene of the bombing as a result of his shrapnel-inflicted injuries and, five days later, Parry lost his life as a result of head injuries. 56 others were injured, some seriously. Parry died in his father's arms in Liverpool's Walton hospital. The two boys had gone shopping to buy Mother's Day cards on one of the town's busiest shopping streets that day.
Glad you gave in. This song and video makes me cry, every time. I’m sure that by now everybody has described the origins of the song having to do with the troubles in Northern Ireland and the IRA bombing in England.
Thank you for your wonderful reaction, and for your words. I was very moved.
Of course, you know that you have to see the Zombie cover by Bad Wolves. It’s a cover because she was scheduled to perform with them on the day she died. They did the tribute to her and gave all profits to her children.
Fair warning they did not take this challenge lightly. Their video is just as deep and meaningful
Drop dead gorgeous
Dolores or Empress? Why not both? :D
I'm glad you saw and heard, Those of us who have seen war can never stop seeing... I hope that little bit of understanding never leaves you. Bless you.
I've heard this song countless times, and watched god knows how many reactions to this,but I was crying with you,I knew it was coming but you definitely set me off....👀😭🤷♂️😂 great reaction 👏💜
The yodelling she does is a specific type of singing technique from Ireland called keening. It expresses heartache and sorrow in the song and is usually used in mourning. I grew up in Belfast during this time and it was pure destruction. My cousin is the 1st child to be murdered during this oppressive war. Patrick Rooney when he was 9. I can still remember my mum walking me and my brother to school and we had to walk through an area that was against Catholics and my mother basically telling us ever day not to call my name as it's a strong strong Irish name (Cathal) I can still remember the abuse we got still. Tragedies happened on both sides but I can only speak of my own experiences
i never knew anything aboiut this song until recant . and its by far one of my favorite songs
I heard this song thousands times, but started crying after first 10 seconds. It's tragic magic.
This song had been played at a few protests I’ve attended recently. Resonates deeply w me💔
Talk about music at its highest purity, R.I.P Dolores, one of the best music group to ever walk the face of this planet.
Beautiful reaction 💜
this song is one of the best ever tears every time!!
This was heartbreaking to watch, couldnt hold back the tears. The way you describe your emotions are so spot on, love your reactions, keep it up! Best luck to you from Sweden!
This song always gets me. Your reaction is what we should all feel like, This song is a masterpiece.
Powerful stuff. Great reaction to a phenomenal performance by Delores and the band.
Zombie was a visceral response to the death of two children in an IRA bombing in the Cheshire town of Warrington. Three-year-old Johnathan Ball was killed when two bombs hidden in litter bins detonated on a busy shopping street in March 1993. Tim Parry, aged 12, died five days later. After this song was aired, the IRA agreed to put a stop to the violence.
Ich Liebe Menschen die Musik verstehen und WIRKLICH fühlen, danke das es dich gibt 😍
I'm a 52 year old man, I cried right along with you.
Empress joy I lived through these time my da was a Protestant from the north of Ireland an my mother was a catholic just over the border in the Republic of Ireland 🇮🇪 I love your emotions so beautiful xxx
Superb song which takes me back to a time I grew up in. I was born in Bristol in the 1960s. "The Troubles" was something I lived through. Bombings, shootings, a daily list of death in Ireland and spilling over into England on occasions such as the Birmingham pub bombings. You got the theme of the song well.
I'm reminded of a line from the film blackhawk down. About American involvement in the Somalia troubles when a Somalian local tells an American "you should not have come here. This is civil war. This is OUR war".
Outsiders, or those who grew up after the troubles subsided can have no idea of what it was like.
Love your reaction , when music makes you feel this much it brings out a persons inner beauty !!!! your adorable !
