Cranberries singer Dolores O'Riordan dead at 46
No announced cause of death.

heard she had been fighting some severe back pain issues, wondering if this is a result of an accidental OD like Heath Ledger?

Have a bunch of their CD's......46 is too young......

Sad. I really like “Linger.”

A couple years ago on one of my trips to Burma the bar next to the hotel I was staying in had karaoke every night. The Burmese, apparently, like Cranberries songs. The drunken Burmese rendition of “Zombie” was quite hilarious and VERY loud.

Wow, 46...

Wow, surprising. My wife just had me make her a CD for work two days ago with a few of their songs on it.

i saw that a while back and enjoyed it. even though she sang linger a bit flat, i really like her voice.

the NPR Tiny desk stuff is great

i have seen some great performances on there. i like the fact that it is really stripped down/low production

This one really hurts... The Cranberries were a BIG part of my HS days. Man she could sing too.... this was when singers didn't need auto-tune.. R.I.P. Dolores..

She had that one great song, 46 is young.

Not the time or place to debate.... but I just have to say they/she were not 'one hit wonders' so to speak.

They had at least 6-8 really great songs in the Mid-90's....most people just remember 'Zombie'

But Linger, Ode to my Family, Salvation, Dreams, Free to Decide, Ridiculous Thoughts, and Promises were all really popular too.

But yeah 46 is just ridiculously too young....I'm just shocked by this... a long time huge Cranberries fan...

There's just something poignant and haunting about "Linger".

Wow, what is it with all the 90's greats dying? I liked Zombie and Linger.

 

[TIDE-HSV]

I'll be very curious to see the COD, if it's released...

 

[CrimsonTheory]

Still remember the days in HS that on the weekends I would listen to The Cranberries, Dropkick Murphies, etc while playing Ultimate Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, Madden/NHL 94, TMNT: Turtles in Time, etc.

This is a gut punch to me. Just wow.

RIP Delores.

I was a big fan in the '90s. Some just leave us too soon.
