Delores O’Riordan dead at 46. No further details.

She was my idol as a teenager. Seems so many artists from my time are going so soon.

I really liked the Cranberries' music, of what I've heard of it. She will be missed.

2018's not off to a good start at all.

Sad to hear her go.

Really sad, headed one of the most iconic bands of the 90s. Was diagnosed with bipolar, could be related to her passing. She was really cute during a 2017 concert:

The Cranberries were really popular in the '90s when I was in high school. I was surprised to read she had died so young. But I know Rock musicians lead a pretty hard lifestyle.

That is sad, now that zombie, zombie song is so much sadder...it was a song a girl I used to know liked, she was killed and the song was at her memorial....so hard not to think about her when I hear it.
