    I have been going through the comments, a lot of you wonder why I did not know this song and actually knew the cover by Bad Wolfes well this song was released 1994 I was born 1996 so yeah that’s that . But what actually surprised me was the fact that people judged me by smiling at this , I do understand lyrics it’s not the first time I hear it, but it is the first time I experience Dolores and the Cranberries . Is it that bad that her beautiful voice makes me smile ? That I find beauty in her expressions, emotions and performance ? Judging a person’s ways of expressing is not right , making them feel bad or guilty just because they don’t feel the way you do is not to be done .
    I am very implicated in everything that’s regarding my channel from the recording to the replying and reading comments as well I am honest and admit if I recognize the lyrics or the song .
    If you made it and actually read everything thank you for checking out my content and enjoying this musical experience that is my channel your support is really appreciated.
    Much love ❤️

      Many people skip the intro and the outro and just watch the reaction. A lot of the questions and concerns they might have are usually answered at the beginning and end of the reaction. I'm guilty of that myself sometimes.
      I smile as well listening to this song. It's hauntingly beautiful. Seeing as how you had heard the song but not Dolores's version your smiling was inevitable and not out of place at all.
      You can't cry every time you listen to this song. Lot's of times, yes, but not every time.
      Thanks for this reaction.
      Peace

      I cry tears of joy hearing her sing and you shouldn’t have to explain the joy you feel also. People don’t get it or don’t want to see it that way. She is missed, but missing someone doesn’t always mean you have to be sad you can remember the good times and smile. I enjoy your real reactions, never change.

      Well...unfortunately, that's people for you. Ignore them, no one has any right to judge someone else's emotional response to something. There's far too much of "this isn't how _I_ would personally react/feel, therefore you totally suck and I don't" crap in this world. Ignore it, don't give these tragic little tr0lls the attention they so desperately crave.

      With Delores gone now, most of their songs make me sad because most of their songs, even the ones that aren't sad songs, have an undercurrent of sadness in her singing. Knowing now how tortured of a person she must have been, it's hard for me to listen to her sing. That said, if you haven't heard/watched their performance on NPR Music, Tiny Desk you really should. Delores is so sweet.

Every week we picked a song to learn lyrics to and on fridays we would get all the classes together to sing it together in the hall. The first song was this. The kids loved it so much we just did a cranberries song every week. It was amazing to see 300 teens with english as a second language belt these songs out.

    It’s a great song and It was written about an IRA bomb in Warrington,England that killed two schoolchildren….here’s what Delores said about why she wrote the song. “There were a lot of bombs going off in London and I remember this one time a child was killed when a bomb was put in a rubbish bin -- that's why there's that line in the song, 'A child is slowly taken,'" O'Riordan told Songwriting Magazine. "We were on a tour bus and I was near the location where it happened, so it really struck me hard - I was quite young, but I remember being devastated about the innocent children being pulled into that kind of thing. So I suppose that's why I was saying, 'It's not me' - that even though I'm Irish it wasn't me, I didn't do it. Because being Irish, it was quite hard, especially in the UK when there was so much tension."
    She told Vox magazine in 1994 that the song was written in part as a mechanism to grapple with her identity as an Irish citizen that did not support the actions of the IRA.
    "The IRA are not me. I'm not the IRA. The Cranberries are not the IRA. My family are not. ... When it says in the song, 'It's not me, it's not my family,' that's what I'm saying. It's not Ireland".

    Great honest reaction... it's rare that an original absolutely blows you away when you already like the cover. RIP Dolores.

    Still one of the best antiwar songs out there. Really pulls you in with lyrics, vocals and over all music. I feel the same as I felt when this song first came out. Just amazing.

    I saw a lot of concerts in the 1990's. Name a 90's band, I probably caught them. The Cranberries I saw 3 times. The first time was a random dreary Tuesday at a small venue. $3 at the door. The opening act was Counting Crows, who nobody had ever heard of, it was 3 months before their debut CD dropped. They blew the roof off the place. It was a half full venue, and they had the energy for a stadium. I got to talk with Adam Duritz for a few minutes after they played, while the roadies loaded them off, and The Cranberries on. He was just chilling side stage, and was the kindest soul. Then the Cranberries came on, and I was right up front. Delores was no more than 10' away for the entire show. I was instantly mesmerized by her. Easily one of my top 5 90's concert memories. I was crushed when she passed.

    There is nothing wrong with loving the song. As long as you know why it was written, and why it makes me cry every time. How can such kick ass tune be about the death of 2 kids, and still be good?

    I saw her when i was 10 in small town midwest america right before they got big. To this day, one of my strongest, earliest memories. My first concert and she was part of the 2nd stage outside stage while inside stage was going. I'll never forget. Amazing. Died in car crash on way to help with the 'cover' BW's version ain't bad, but no one can replace her.

    I don't know if anyone has told you the story. The Bad Wolves version was originally supposed to be a colab with Delores. It was actually going to be a re-imagined version of the song. The day filming was to begin they found Delores drowned in her bathtub. What an unmitigated tragedy. I am tearing up just thinking about it.
    The Bad Wolves instead of just canceling the video altogether, decided to turn the song into a cover and Tribute to Delores. I salute them for the decision, but cannot say I will ever prefer it to the original. thank you for another wonderful reaction look forward to your next movie. Love and respect. HOG fam.

    The technique Dolores is using is called keening. It is a style/technique used for Irish ceremonies for the dead and is an expression of deep sorrow/grief.

  • @jamescoleman8954
    @jamescoleman8954 Před rokem +1

    Well, she was supposed to do the Bad Wolves version with them but she literally died a day or two before they went into the studio for it. It would’ve been so amazing for her and bad wolves to have done that together. Something we all lost out on.

  • @cyberdan42
    @cyberdan42 Před rokem +4

    Beyond her fantastic voice, Dolores was a poet and composer of the first order. The lyrics of this song are so compelling and heartfelt. Since the dawn of the millennium and all the terror threats post-Sept 11th, 2001, folks have largely forgotten the Irish troubles, which stretched bloodshed, hatred and loss throughout the 20th century. The spectre of this recent violence raised some fears during Brexit, but even then, they were downplayed and largely ignored. The Irish troubles should not be forgotten; they should be an enduring lesson on the toxicity of religious and cultural division with the violence and horror it brings to all involved.

    • @vattmann1387
      @vattmann1387 Před rokem

      What upsets me is how many Americans use this as an anthem for UP THE IRA AND KILL PEOPLE.
      It misses the point of the song of people being brainwashed by hatred.
      None of the sides want violence except the extremists on both sides :/
      Also the Bass from this song is great fun to play. You can even do it acoustic on a uke if you down tune it :D

    Dolores sang in a Keening style, its the Irish lament for the people that passed, this record at the time, could of got them in a whole pool of trouble, as the Troubles where still ongoing in Northen Ireland, and its a perfect song, at the time of writing im in tears for the wasted lives, and the passing of Dolores

    As soon as you smiled, I knew you felt the same about Dolores as we all do! She was an amazingly, talented woman and she will always be missed. And The Bad Wolves version of this song is very powerful and hit me hard knowing that Dolores was going to sing on that record with them. So you listen and enjoy!
    You should check out Dreams (love song) & Linger (heartbreak song) both are so beautiful.

    Still got the seven inch single from '94. That was the year they burst onto the scene in the UK with the single Linger although I think they gained a bit of traction in the US first. This song was clearly about the troubles in Northern Ireland though as I recall, I think it was specifically inspired by the Warrington bombings on the mainland the year before, a town just down the road from where I grew up. Dolores. Such a damn waste of talent and a beautiful soul. Thanks again for your reactions. There's some good 'reactots' up here on CZcams but yours are absolutely top notch every time.

    I appreciate that you were smiling at the beauty of her voice and the power of the song. It was also very clear that you started noticing that the images in the video weren't matching up with the feeling you had listening to the music and vocal performance.
    As a reactor, especially when listening to bands who made music before 2000, you might find that the lyrics, and the stories behind the lyrics, are essential to the reaction.
    Of course there will always be songs and artists who aren't as deep or poetic. And all music can be enjoyed purely for the sound. But songs like this mean something, and they're considered great songs because of the complexity of the message. This song should make a listener think and feel deeply.
    As a reactor, you can grow and excel if you recognize when a greater message or story is being told, work to understand the story, and share your experience with the art.
    Good luck to you. Keep going back to the original artists. 80-90% of the time, the original is better than the cover.

    This is a really wonderful reaction, thank you so much! The look on your face when you realize what you've been missing, it's priceless. It's almost like watching one of those videos where deaf people hear for the first time. Many interesting and adorable expressions. Especially at 2:44! And to those criticizing you for smiling, please read the words of P.B. Shelley:
    We look before and after,
    And pine for what is not:
    Our sincerest laughter
    With some pain is fraught;
    Our sweetest songs are those that tell of saddest thought.

  • @nigeldepledge3790
    @nigeldepledge3790 Před rokem +8

    Another great reaction!
    Specifically, this song is about "the Troubles" in Northern Ireland, which was an unofficial civil war over the question of whether Northern Ireland should be a part of the UK or a part of the Republic of Ireland. It was also very much about Catholic versus Protestant values, a theme that has plagued British history since the 1530s.
    The line "It's the same old theme since 1916," is a reference to the Easter Uprising in Dublin in 1916, which was brutally repressed by the British. The Republic of Ireland came into being in 1922, first as a member of the British Commonwealth, but it later left the Commonwealth to make its own path. But the Republic never included the six counties around Belfast (which remain a part of the UK).
