![]() The Cranberries appear to be mainly from Limerick. It’s easy to see The Cranbetries sung about it in their song Zombie. With the British Army occupation of Nth Ireland. And a volatile political situation all round in Late 1980’s to 1992 because of it.Īnd at the height (was there ever low?) of the Troubles in Ireland.Īnd all the fear. This song was a hit at the height of the IRA bombings/bomb scares on the UK mainland. that the Irish faced in the UK at that time. people outside of the UK have little or no understanding or knowledge of the fear, suspicion and and racism I guess. Older UK, Northern and Southern Irish people would know that. Regardless of how U2 succeeded long before. And the chances on their popularity in the UK music market when being Irish then. Overall, I was in awe of the fact that they were Irish. Cause shaving your head was, umm, out of fashion by then. But I examined her, Delores O’Riordon’s raw style of fashion as much as their music. I was always in awe and impressed by The Cranberries when they hit the UK music scene. Cause it’s loaded with lilting Irish love. I loved this song, but I love The Cranberries song ‘Dreams’ even more. No one did a love song back then as good as The Cranberries. Some kind of indication of love and commitment. Melinda from AustraliaA heart rendering song about being in love with someone who doesn’t appear to be in love with you.Besides this, I suppose it’s the repetitive “Do you have to let it linger? Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it linger?” that really makes the song “linger.” It is her grieving voice that makes it worth listening. Her background vocals sounds sadder than the deep, sad voice singing the lyrics, which makes it more appealing. I liked its unhurried rhythm the song makes you take it easy and imagine lazy afternoons.īut I think it is O’Riordan’s keening voice that makes the song last. It's a slow tune lamenting the infidelity of one’s beloved. Romanong Kurong from PhilippinesI first heard “Linger” on DWEB-FM, the local rock station where I would find myself working as a DJ years later. ![]() I love this song because it remembers me about all the s-t love has put me through, but yeah, that's it. I don't have the album that "Linger" is in, but i want to buy it, because i have the "no need to argue" album, and i love it to the bottom of my heart, everytime i remember him.
