Combining the melodic jangle of post-Smiths indie guitar pop with the lilting, trance-inducing sonic textures of late-'80s dream pop and adding a slight Celtic tint, the Cranberries became one of the more successful groups to emerge from the pre-Brit-pop U.K. indie scene of the early '90s. Led by vocalist Dolores O'Riordan, whose keening, powerful voice is the most distinctive element of the group's sound, the group initially made little impact in the United Kingdom. It wasn't until the lush ballad "Linger" became an American hit in 1993 that the band also achieved mass success in the U.K. Following the success of "Linger," the Cranberries quickly became international stars, as both their 1993 debut album, Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We?, and its 1994 follow-up, No Need to Argue, sold millions of copies and produced a string of hit singles. By the time of their third album, 1996's To the Faithful Departed, they had added distorted guitars to their sonic palette and attempted to make more socially significant music, which resulted in a downturn in the band's commercial fortunes.
Originally, the Cranberries were a band called the Cranberry Saw Us. Brothers Noel and Mike Hogan (guitar and bass, respectively) formed the band in Limerick, Ireland, with drummer Fergal Lawler in 1990. Following the departure of the group's original singer, Niall, the trio placed an advertisement for a female singer. Dolores O'Riordan responded to the advertisement and auditioned by writing lyrics and melodies to some of the band's existing demos. When she returned with a rough version of "Linger," the group hired her on the spot. Shortly after she joined, the band recorded a demo tape and sold it in record stores throughout Ireland. After the original run of 300 copies sold out, the group truncated its name to the Cranberries and sent another demo tape, which featured early versions of both "Linger" and "Dreams," to record companies throughout the U.K. The tape was made at Xeric Studios, which was run by Pearse Gilmore, who would later become their manager. At the time the tape was made, all of the members were still in their late teens.
The demo tape earned the attention of both the U.K. press and record industry, and there soon was a bidding war between major British record labels. Eventually, the group signed with Island Records. the Cranberries headed into the studio with Gilmore as their producer to record their first single, "Uncertain." The title proved to be prophetic, as the band did indeed sound ill at ease on the single, leading to poor reviews in the press, in addition to tensions between the group and Gilmore. Before they were scheduled to record their debut in 1992, the Cranberries discovered that Gilmore had signed a secret deal with Island to improve his studios. The tensions within the band became so great they nearly broke up. Instead, the Cranberries severed all relations with Gilmore, hired Geoff Travis of Rough Trade as their new manager, and hired Stephen Street, who had previously worked with the Smiths, as their new producer. The band's debut album, Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We?, was released in the spring of 1993, followed by a single of "Dreams." Neither the album nor the single gained much attention, nor did the second single, "Linger." In the summer and fall of 1993, the band toured the United States, opening for The The and Suede, respectively; frequently, the Cranberries were given a friendlier reception than either of the headliners. The strong live shows led MTV to put "Linger" into heavy rotation. By the end of the year, the single was on its way to becoming a crossover hit. Eventually, the single reached number eight on the U.S. charts, while the album went double platinum. Everybody Else and "Linger" began to take off in Britain in early 1994; the album eventually peaked at number one during the summer. O'Riordan married the band's tour manager, Don Burton, in a much-publicized ceremony in July 1994. The marriage, as well as the group's videos, emphasized the singer as the focal point of the band.
O'Riordan's position in the group continued to rise with the fall release of the group's second album, No Need to Argue. Boasting a slightly harder, more streamlined sound, yet still produced by Stephen Street, the record debuted at number six on the U.S. charts and eventually outsold its predecessor; within a year it went triple platinum, spawning the number one modern rock hit "Zombie" and the number 11 "Ode to My Family." During the tour for No Need to Argue, rumors began to circulate that O'Riordan was going to leave the band to pursue a solo career, all of which the band vehemently denied. Nevertheless, the rumors persisted until the Cranberries began recording their next album with producer Bruce Fairbairn, who had previously worked with Aerosmith. The resulting album, To the Faithful Departed, was a tougher, more rock-oriented album. Upon its spring 1996 release, the album entered the charts at number six, but its first single, "Salvation," failed to become a hit on par with "Zombie," "Linger," or "Ode to My Family." Consequently, the album slipped down the charts relatively quickly and only went platinum, which was slightly disappointing in light of its two predecessors' multi-platinum status. Bury the Hatchet During the fall of 1996, the group canceled its Australian and European tour, sparking another round of rumors about whether O'Riordan was about to launch a solo career. In 1999, the group released Bury the Hatchet, and in 2003, shortly after the release of a greatest-hits compilation, Stars: The Best of 1992-2002, the Cranberries officially declared that they were taking a break. This finally gave O'Riordan the time she needed to work on her long-talked-about solo album, and Are You Listening hit shelves in 2007. In 2009, O'Riordan released her second solo album, No Baggage. Around the same time, the Cranberries reunited for a North American tour that continued throughout Europe in 2010. Several live albums also appeared in 2010. In 2011, the band began work on a new album in Toronto with longtime producer Street. The resulting album, Roses, appeared in March 2012.

We live in our secure surroundings, And people die out there. Bosnia was so unkind. Sarajevo changed my mind. And we all call out in despair. All the love we need isn't there. And we all sing songs in our room. Sarajevo erects another tomb. Sarajevo, Sarajevo, Sarajevo, Sarajevo. Bosnia was so unkind. Sarajevo, Sarajevo, Saraje- Bosnia was so unkind. Sure things would change if we really wanted them to. No fear for children anymore. There are babies in their beds, Terror in their heads, Love for the love of life.

In the ghetto As the snow flies On a cold and gray Chicago mornin' A poor little baby child is born In the ghetto And his mama cries 'Cause if there's one thing that she don't need It's another hungry mouth to feed In the ghetto People, don't you understand The child needs a helping hand Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day Take a look at you and me, Are we too blind to see, Do we simply turn our heads And look the other way Well the world turns And a hungry little boy with a runny nose Plays in the street as the cold wind blows In the ghetto And his hunger burns So he starts to roam the streets at night and he learns how to steal And he learns how to fight In the ghetto Then one night in desperation A young man breaks away He buys a gun, steals a car, Tries to run, but he don't get far And his mama cries As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man Face down on the street with a gun in his hand In the ghetto As her young man dies, On a cold and gray Chicago mornin', Another little baby child is born In the ghetto

The sun does rise Nightime has when all was still Moon shone the way as we climbed the hill When we arrived we raised our hands Now the down has come now we understand The sun does rise in the eastern sky And love soon comes watch over I The road was long yes we travelled far Thought long dark nights without guiding star Visions of an angel came along the way Told us "don't be fearful for there comes a brighter day " The journey's been an epic Sometimes I've been so down Stranded in a lonely bar the other side of town Yes we've travalled day and night for many a poor mile Now it all makes sense as we see the morning smile. Uncertain Tears on your face honey You're a total disgrace, oh why Why did you bring me here Oh start all over again honey You still treat me the same, oh why Why did you bring me here Oh you had everything I could ever want Won't you tell me why Why can't you live here Oh so uncertain in love you're so uncertain in love So uncertain in love Driving in the car honey You mistook me by far, oh why Why did you bring me here Leaves in the wind You had nothing to send, oh why Why did you bring me here

Willow Pattern (Are you Listening Bonus Track - Dolores O'Riordan Solo) Dreaming of the willow pattern A phase I'm going through Dreaming of the willow pattern There's something I should do I'd never see the world without you You opened up my eyes I'd never see the world without you And now I realise Never turn around Never transit / chance it Never play dead Don't ever walk backwards Never turn around Never transit / chance it Never play dead Don't ever walk backwards You should never take a thing for granted You only miss it when it's gone And it's stupid to be holding grudges Because we only got so long So long [x7] I'm dreaming of the willow pattern She kept it in her room An oriental china set A gift I would assume She told me how you loved her so much That everybody died Another universal theme Don't hold it all inside Never turn around Never transit / chance it Never play dead Don't ever walk backwards Never turn around Never transit / chance it Never play dead Don't ever walk backwards You should never take a thing for granted You only miss it when it's gone And it's stupid to be holding grudges Because we only got so long So long [x7] I affiliate with you [x6] I know we'd all have died Never turn around Never transit / chance it Never play dead Don't ever walk backwards Never turn around Never transit / chance it Never play dead Don't ever walk backwards You should never take a thing for granted You only miss it when it's gone And it's stupid to be holding grudges Because we only got so long Without You (Ordinary Day EP / Dolores O'Riordan Solo) Nothing seems to be worth while without you A part of my existence is not here without you You have made your bed and you lie on it now You have made your bed and you lie on it I try to switch off my mind, but it's rolling Rolling on an iceberg, moving down towards the water You have made your bed and you lie on it now You have made your bed and you lie on it Aaah... So far across the water you were always on my mind Your love and understanding you were always on my mind My mind Maybe I just can't survive without you Maybe I don't want to live without you You have made your bed and you lie on it now You have made your bed and you lie on it So far across the water you were always on my mind Your love and understanding you were always on my mind My mind Uuuh... Without you, without you Without you Without you, without you Without you, without you
Yesterday's gone I heard she loved you, I heard she cared, I heard she miscarried and you were scared. Did you run from the one, Who conceived your child? Yesterday's gone there's no return, And she cries all night. Did you run from the one Who conceived your child? Yesterday's done there's no return, And she cries all night. Solo. I believe that a woman can be a slave to a man. I believe that love that you gave and we try it again. Will you return to the one, Who conceived your child? Yesterday's gone there's no return, And she cries all night. Will you return to the one, Who conceived your child? Yesterday's done there's no return, And she cries all night. Did you run from the one, Who conceived your child? Yesterday's gone there's no return, And she cries all night.
