Yet again Limerick only realises the world class talent they produced when it’s too late. Frank McCourt, Terry Wogan and now Dolores O’Riordan. If ever there was a time to organise a This Is Your Life style tribute event for Tom Ryan and Celia Holman Lee then that time is now.

I had no-gra for the Cranberries as a young lad and while I’ve mellowed and think Linger is a good tune, Dolores was no Kurt Cobain.
Fuck Cobain, Grohl is ten times the artist.
Grohl is a piece of shit.

Your hard-on for the Cranberries is somewhat disturbing, on many levels

Bizarre indeed.
I’d have done a fair number on her and Ferg back in the day
Last night Dolores O’Riordan was a washed up wailer with a voice like a cat screeching in the middle of the night, who sang mainly shite, long forgotten songs with shite lyrics, and who only entered the public’s consciousness when she attacked a flight attendant or lashed out at a journalist.
Tonight she’s a born again voice of a generation, a forever to be loved folk hero, a vital artist whose raw, primal anger expressed the pain felt by so many people across the world, while her angelic, velvet tones cushioned that pain and soothed our souls. We now realise that her troubled personal life was an indivisible part of her tragic genius. The fallibility of that genius made us all identify with her in a deeply personal and emotional way.
“But I miss you when you’re gone, that is what I do…”
