Let's remember their names: Three-year-old Johnathan Ball was killed when two bombs hidden in litter bins detonated on a busy shopping street in March 1993. Tim Parry, aged 12, died five days later. There were many other victims, but this is the incident that inspired the song.

[hooermasters]

As an Northern Irish person I just want to say: I have seen so many Americans react to this song, but finally someone really gets it ❤

[ilaril]

"With their tanks and their bombs and their bombs and their guns..." "Bombs" is said twice because there were two bombs in Warrington and both maged to kill a child (RIP Jonathan Ball and Tim Parry)

[jayne]

They actually filmed in Belfast in the heartland of the Troubles, getting permission from the British army by saying they were making a documentary about the peace-keeping efforts, so those shots of the soldiers, graffiti etc are real. The b/w of the band playing was filmed in Dublin.

The vocal technique she uses is keening - a classic Irish (and Scottish) vocal lament. The song and video are haunting and when it was released it was profoundly shocking - am An Old and remember it well.

[JesyAndersonNeedleInkandThread]

Zombie" is a protest song by Irish alternative rock band the Cranberries, written by the band's lead singer, Dolores O'Riordan, in response to and in memory of two young victims of a bombing in Warrington, England, that occurred during the Troubles in Northern Ireland.

[Chris_]

One of the best things about Dolores was you could still hear her Limerick accent when she sang!

[marshwigglegoth]

I’m from northern Ireland and this song released when I was a young teen. Dolores is using an Irish wailing sound called keening, made at wakes or at gravesides. It draws out more emotion in this song with the subject matter. Still hard to listen to this song without the tears!

[donegalrediscovered]

As an Irishman .. I loved your thoughtful & insightful reaction .. Most in-depth I’ve watched on this iconic song .. You’re a deep empathetic young man .. keep up the great work .. Love & blessings to you & yours from across the pond 🌊.. Thankfully we’ve had a relative peace in the North over the last 20 years ..

[pobbynine]

"it's not me it's not my family" when you grew up in this time it means alot because you hear a big bang at night that's what you thought as another persons family was taken.

[christineha]

When the kids are shot and their golden counterpart screams, it brings me to tears, every single time. Great reaction!

[tattoodude]

The drummer just beat the hell out of those skins in this song! It makes them sound so crisp and impactful.

[Jinty]

It still cuts me up every time. As a Scot with Irish heritage and growing up watching the troubles regularly on the news, it takes me back to my childhood. I remember going shopping in Glasgow and having to regularly leave stores with my mum aged 10 cause of bomb scares. It was much worse in Ireland as they had to check under their cars for detonators every time before driving off. Dolores' voice giving way to 'keening' the Irish funeral lament is so haunting. There is also a Scottish Gaelic version of this too, but I only know a few words of Gaelic being on the West coast.

[thebrhinocerous]

You're one of the very few reactors that I watch who even knew what the reference to 1916 is in this song. Very well done reaction.

[helenajrgensen]

The sound and the visuals in combination = breaks my heart every time. really a masterpiece

[itsjack]

I'm an old man from north Belfast and your knowledge of my wee country in mighty impressive, great reaction as usual 👍

[ArtilleryAmy]

This song is just as current as the day it was released…. RIP Delores 🙏🏻

[lynndally]

This song always gets me right in the feels😢 RIP Jonathan Ball, Tim Parry, Dolores O'Riordan.

[GhostWatcher]

Yes, she usually sounded like this.
I always liked this song and "Linger".

[acorrado]

Excellent analysis and reaction- thanks! Yes, Delores sings with her limerick accent in all of her songs but in this song she is using a vocal technique referred to as "Keening" common in Irish folk songs and used at Irish funerals to emphasize heartbreak and grief. Please react to the 'Bad Wolves' cover of this song while this one is still fresh in your mind. Delores was scheduled to reprise her vocals and record that cover with them but passed away suddenly the day it was to be recorded. It is a stunning tribute to Delores and the proceeds of that song go to her children.

[sherribrock]

The style in which this is sung in is called keening. It’s used at Ireland funerals and anywhere there is mourning. I may be wrong but I’m pretty sure!
