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 fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are crying...
In your head, in your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie,
Hey, hey, hey. What's in your head,
In your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie?
Hey, hey, hey, hey, oh, dou, dou, dou, dou, dou...
Another mother's breakin',
Heart is taking over.
When the vi'lence causes silence,
We must be mistaken.
It's the same old theme since nineteen-sixteen.
In your head, in your head they're still fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are dying...
In your head, in your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie,
Hey, hey, hey. What's in your head,
In your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie?
Hey, hey, hey, hey, oh, oh, oh,
Oh, oh, oh, oh, hey, oh, ya, ya-a...
The Cranberries were an Irish rock band formed in Limerick, Ireland, in 1989. The band was originally named The Cranberry Saw Us and featured singer Niall Quinn, guitarist Noel Hogan, bassist Mike Hogan, and drummer Fergal Lawler; Quinn was replaced as lead singer by Dolores O'Riordan in 1990, and the group changed their name to the Cranberries. The band classified themselves as an alternative rock group, but incorporated aspects of indie rock, jangle pop, dream pop, folk rock, post-punk, and pop rock into their sound.
In 1991, the Cranberries signed with Island Records, and released their debut album, Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We? (1993), to commercial success. Their second album, No Need to Argue (1994), brought the band to international fame, and included the single "Zombie", which became a stadium anthem and one of the band's most recognizable songs. The band continued this success with the albums To the Faithful Departed (1996) and Bury the Hatchet (1999), and were transferred to MCA Records in 2000. Their fifth album, Wake Up and Smell the Coffee (2001), did not meet the commercial success of their preceding albums, and the band cited their dissatisfaction with the label's promotion.
Following a six-year hiatus from 2003 to 2009, the Cranberries embarked on a North American tour which was followed by shows in Latin America and Europe. They released their sixth album, Roses (2012), their first album in eleven years since Wake Up and Smell the Coffee, and expanded their musical style with their seventh acoustic album, Something Else (2017). In 2018, O'Riordan died from drowning due to alcohol intoxication. Noel Hogan confirmed the band's intent to dissolve that same year. They disbanded after the release of their acclaimed final album, In the End (2019).
The Cranberries were one of the best-selling alternative acts of the 1990s, having sold nearly fifty million albums worldwide as of 2019. In their career, they won an Ivor Novello Award (out of two nominations), a Juno Award, a MTV Europe Music Award, a World Music Award, and were nominated for a Brit Award and a Grammy Award. The music video for "Zombie" made the Cranberries the first Irish band to reach one billion views on YouTube.
We pay the same fees for all songs (Google "music copyright compulsory license" for details on how that works) & choose what we play based on our own opinions and the response that songs receive from RP listeners — most of whom seem to disagree with you.
Glad I could clear that up :-).
voice inflection.
Maybe just hit PSD then. Then we're all happy.
Well said. The negative comments here are legit: it's not easy to listen to. But that's the point, isn't it? Tanks and bombs and guns shouldn't be easy to listen to. It's angry and sad and frustrating, a cry of rage.
Ms. O'Riordan speaks for the victims: it's not supposed to sound nice.

Sorry you had to. I hear plenty of variety on RP. You guys are hands down the best free music site , without question . This guy that complained might want to try the other channels to expand his....whatever.
Now rack up Stairway to Heaven and set it to play 5x straight !!
Pandora has but one feature that makes its good, but still the lesser to RP is that the stations are very broad. Their repetition, recycling gets tiresome.
I really wish I could add financial support.
Thank for what you provide to music lovers.
Volume at 10 and singing my head off = 10

RP, I used to give 9 to all songs you play. But the later time i updated that to 10. Because it is worth. Even if I don't know way, you did. Seriously speaking, I am tired to evaluate the art. Each piece is unique and I pay nothing to listen. Thank you!
