Biographie de The Cranberries
Comme cela arrive dans l'histoire rock, celle des "Cranberries Saw Us" commence par l'envie de deux frères, Noel et Mike Hogan de monter un groupe avec un ami batteur, Fergal Lawler et un ami parolier, Niall Quinn, roi du jeu de mots. Tous sont nés et vivent au sud-ouest de l'Irlande, Limerick... Plaisanterie sur le nom du groupe "Cranberries Saw Us"... pour la proximité avec la sonorité de "Cranberry sauce"... On ne parie pas alors beaucoup sur le succès du band...
Mais, coup du hasard taquin : Niall part... visiblement déçu du manque d'ambition du groupe (là vous avez le droit de sourire). En partant, il met en contact le groupe avec une chanteuse du coin... Dolores O'Riordan, qui a appris à chanter dès l'âge de 5 ans dans son église et dans les pubs... Elle réduit le nom à "Cranberries" et apporte une énergie et une voix incroyables au groupe. Ils vendront plusieurs dizaines de millions d'albums depuis 1989... Leurs premiers singles Linger" et "Dreams" sortent un peu dans l'indifférence générale en 1991. Au printemps 1993, leur 1er album sous le bras, "Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can’t We ?" ils partent en tournée aux États-Unis. La qualité de leurs prestations les fait repérer par MTV qui va diffuser "Linger" et marquer le début de leur succès qui atteindra l'Angleterre en 1994.
Après le mariage entre Dolores et le tourneur du groupe, sort leur 2e album "No Need To Argue". Extrait de l'album, le morceau "Zombie" connaîtra un succès phénoménal dans le monde entier. La suite offre en 1996 un album, "To the Faithfull Departed", qui marche bien mais ne convainc pas autant.. Ils feront une pause en 2003. Dolores publiera quelques années plus tard en solo "Are you listening?" (2007) et "No Baggage" (2009).
Leur retour a lieu en 2012 avec la sortie de l'album "Roses" pour lequel il étaient repartis en tournée.
En 2017, l'album "Something Else" nous offrait la réorchestration acoustique de leurs tubes passés.
Dolores O'Riordan est décédée subitement en janvier 2018.

WHEN YOU'RE GONE

Hold onto love that is what I do now that I've found you.
And from above everything's stinking, they're not around you.


And in the night, I could be helpless,
I could be lonely, sleeping without you.

And in the day, everything's complex,
There's nothing simple, when I'm not around you.

But I'll miss you when you're gone, that is what I do. Hey, baby!
And it's going to carry on, that is what I do. Hey, baby...

Hold onto my hands, I feel I'm sinking, sinking without you.
And to my mind, everything's stinking, stinking without you.

And in the night, I could be helpless,
I could be lonely, sleeping without you.


And in the day, everything's complex,
There's nothing simple, when I'm not around you.

But I'll miss you when you're gone, that is what I do. Hey, baby!
And it's going to carry on, that is what I do. hey, baby...

The Cranberries lyrics

ODE TO MY FAMILY

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo...


Understand the things I say, don't turn away from me,
'Cause I've spent half my life out there, you wouldn't disagree.

Do you see me? Do you see? Do you like me?
Do you like me standing there? Do you notice?
Do you know? Do you see me? Do you see me?
Does anyone care?

Unhappiness where's when I was young,
And we didn't give a damn,
'Cause we were raised,
To see life as fun and take it if we can.
My mother, my mother,
She hold me, she hold me, when I was out there.
My father, my father,
He liked me, oh, he liked me. Does anyone care?

Understand what I've become, it wasn't my design.
And people ev'rywhere think, something better than I am.
But I miss you, I miss, 'cause I liked it,
'Cause I liked it, when I was out there. Do you know this?
Do you know you did not find me. You did not find.
Does anyone care?

Unhappiness where's when I was young,
And we didn't give a damn,
'Cause we were raised,
To see life as fun and take it if we can.
My mother, my mother,
She hold me, she hold me, when I was out there.
My father, my father,
He liked me, oh, he liked me.

Does anyone care?... (x9)
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo...

THE CRANBERRIES - ZOMBIE

Another head hangs lowly
Child is slowly taken
And the violence caused such silence
Who are we mistaken?

But you see, it's not me, it's not my family
In your head, in your head, they are fightin'
With their tanks and their bombs and their bombs and their guns
In your head, in your head, they are cryin'

In your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie
What's in your head, in your head?
Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie-ie, oh

Du, du, du, du
Du, du, du, du
Du, du, du, du
Du, du, du, du

Another mother's breakin'
Heart is takin' over


When the violence causes silence
We must be mistaken

It's the same old theme, since 1916
In your head, in your head, they're still fightin'
With their tanks and their bombs and their bombs and their guns
In your head, in your head, they are dyin'

In your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie
What's in your head, in your head?
Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie-ie, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, eh-eh-oh, ra-ra
