  I'm Northern Irish and grew up during the tail end of The Troubles… Dolores is a legend in this neck of the woods. Great reaction … When this comes on in the pub at the end of the night it nearly takes the roof off the place!

  Great song, great vocalist. &nbsp;Dolores O&apos;Riordan always sang from her heart. &nbsp;RIP Dolores.

  the fact that you know this song inside and out, and still have this reaction says a lot about the song, the performance, the lyrics, but also about you.

  In 2018, when Dolores passed away, everyone was talking about and listening to this song. &nbsp;The father of one of the boys who died in that bombing said he never realized before that the song was about his son. &nbsp;It really helped him to know that so many people were sympathetic to what they had gone through.

  Thanks for your honest reaction. To my mind, the term Zombie, as used in this piece, refers to everyone involved in these generations-long conflicts just replaying the same thoughts, feelings, and actions as their ancestors (&quot;It&apos;s the same old theme since 1916&quot;) without stopping to think about whether it&apos;s right, or even changing things they thought they would change (&quot;When the violence causes silence, we must be mistaken&quot;).

  &quot;This is ageless art.&quot; I&apos;ve never heard it more succinctly and beautifully put.

  Dolores told the guys, especially the drummer, to play as hard as they can. She wanted people to feel the anguish. Such a beautiful song. Makes me cry every single time.

  Dolores&apos; singing is actually a traditional Celtic style called, &quot;Keening,&quot; which is done at funerals to lament or mourn the loss of a loved one.<br><br>It certainly does what it is intended to do, which is to allow the listener to feel the pain internally.
