One site I saw that they cancelled a tour this summer and another said she had back surgery. I wonder what happened.

Good singer but a complete nut job. Irish and performer goes well pretty much dictates she would be a moonbat as well.

Dolores was raised as a Roman Catholic.[20] Her mother was a devout Catholic who chose her name in reference to the Lady of the Seven Dolours. She admired the late Pope John Paul II. After meeting him inside Vatican City, O’Riordan remarked: “[He] was lovely, very saintly. I was mad about him. I thought he really cared for the poor and he loved to meet the people. I saw him when he came to Limerick, when I was a kid. So it was pretty mindblowing to take my mum out to meet him.”[21] She was invited by Pope Benedict XVI at the Vatican’s annual Christmas concerts, and performed there several times, in 2001, 2002 and 2005.[citation needed]

I'm probably one of the few here who did not like her voice, but I was surprised to hear this this morning.

So sad to hear this news. I just read that she had been suffering for years from Bi-Polar disorder, depression, and a host of mental problems.

She was an amazing talent. Today, there are few artists that have her kind of gritty sound and ability.

Terrible tragedy. I can only guess, but it probably will come out that she took her own life.

Her voice was haunting, beautiful, and extraordinary. She should sing in an ethereal manner, followed by shear power. It is truly sad to see such a talented person die so danged young.

Chick had a very strange voice. Wasn’t a fan. Looking back, still not.

I only know the Cranberries one big hit but what a lovely wide ranging voice she had. RIP

It’s interesting reading the many comments left on YouTube. They’re just pouring in. There are obviously a lot of fans out there from all over the world.
