Last 2012 promo performance so far: “Ein bier bitte!”

April 23, 2012  |  1 Comments  |  by Camille  |  The Cranberries

On their last promo tour in Europe last January, The Cranberries performed on the German/French TV ARTE in Berlin. The TV show was broadcast last night.

Dolores at ARTE Lounge

The band opened the evening with “Tomorrow” and closed it with a particularly remarkable performance of “Zombie” and Schizophrenic Playboys, but that’s not all: the show happened to feature priceless moments including Dolores almost falling asleep during Albrecht Mayer’s performance and a pretty funny interview during which she decided to answer a question regarding their comeback with humour.

Indeed, when asked if they reunited because they had spent all the money, Dolores went:
well actually the reason we were gone for 7 years is because we came here in a little canoe from Ireland and we sailed here and we came as well for the free beer. Ein bier bitte!

She added that what they were looking forward to on their upcoming world tour were “the gigs and see the planet again” as well as “nice food, restaurants, wine, vino, […] , all the good stuff.

Poll Results: Your dream setlist (part one)

April 19, 2012  |  1 Comments  |  by Luc  |  The Cranberries

The poll has ended and now the results are in…
There were a couple of surprises in the results. Some long forgotten tracks like “Not Sorry”, “So Cold in Ireland” and “Forever Yellow Skies” got so many votes that they ended up on the top 5 of their respective album era polls. Other tracks, that haven’t been played in a while got lot of votes (“Sunday”, “Liar”, “Hollywood”, “Electric Blue”).

On the other hand, some permanent songs on the band’s set list, like “Wanted” and “Free to Decide”, failed to make it to the top 10 of each poll, but most singles ended up in the top 5. Keep in mind that this poll was done for the fun of it and that it has nothing to do with the current tour nor the band itself. This is your collective “fantasy” setlist results. The second part of the poll will start on Friday. Here are the final results of part 1:

American TV series features Cranberries classic

April 19, 2012  |  Comments Off on American TV series features Cranberries classic  |  by Luc  |  The Cranberries

U.S. TV series Suburgatory featured The Cranberries classic “Linger” on last night’s episode entitled “Entering Eden”. The show featured Jeremy Sisto, who plays the main character, and guest star Alicia Silverstone.

Alicia Silverstone and Jeremy Sisto – “Suburgatory” (2012)

As you may remember the two actors already worked togheter on the 90’s movie Clueless which also featured a Cranberries song “Away”. Back then Jeremy Sisto played Elton, you know, the guy who couldn’t find his Cranberries CD and had to go to the quad before anyone snags it.
(watch again below!!)

I can’t find my Cranberries CD…

For all the 90’s teens out there, last night’s Suburgatory episode was packed with references to this movie.
US and Canadian residents can watch the episode online, respectively on ABC.com and CityTV.com

The Cranberries get a few weeks off

April 10, 2012  |  1 Comments  |  by Luc  |  The Cranberries

The Cranberries finished their mini Asian tour today at the Araneta Coliseum in Manila, Philippines. The setlist was similar to the one from their previous show in Hong Kong.

Asian fans were the first to enjoy a live version of “Losing My Mind” from the “Roses” album on this tour. The band also performed “Tomorrow”, “Raining in My Heart”, “Schizophrenic Playboys” and “Conduct”. The Cranberries also made a few changes to their setlist of olders songs: “Wanted”, “Dreaming My Dreams” and “Animal Instinct” were replaced by “How”, “Put Me Down” and “Analyse” on the last 3 shows. “Animal Instinct” was put back in the setlist on the last 2 shows while “Promises” got bumped away.

The Cranberries will now take a few well-deserved weeks off before their Canadian/Northeastern American tour in May, then Europe in June and July. Tickets are now on sale and few dates are already sold out (Washington, New York City [first night of two], Montréal, Paris). For more information visit the official website of the band at cranberries.com.

Any more changes to the setlist on the upcoming tour? We’ll have to wait until May 2 to see if the band will include other tracks from Roses and different fan-favorite oldies like “Sunday”, “Liar”, “Forever Yellow Skies”, “Shattered” and so many more!

Changing setlists!

April 7, 2012  |  Comments Off on Changing setlists!  |  by Luc  |  The Cranberries

The Cranberries started to change their setlists on the Asian leg of the “Roses Tour”. In Taipei the band replaced “Wanted”, “Dreaming My Dreams” and “Animal Instinct” with “How”, “Put Me Down” and “Analyse”.

A few days before in Kuala Lumpur, The Cranberries introduced “Losing My Mind” which took “Roses” spot on the set. Five tracks from “Roses” are now currently played live.

Fans chose “Conduct” as favorite song from ‘Roses’

April 6, 2012  |  Comments Off on Fans chose “Conduct” as favorite song from ‘Roses’  |  by Luc  |  The Cranberries

CW readers chose “Conduct” as their favorite song from The Cranberries latest album “Roses”. The first track from the album came first at 31%, followed by “Schizophrenic Playboys” at 23%. “Astral Projections” (14%) and “Raining in My Heart” (9%) took the 3rd and 4th spots.

Surprisingly “Tomorrow” -the first single- finished second last. This might be explained by the fact that the song was released more than three months before the album and does not feel as new as the rest of the songs.

There is still no word about the release of the second single (or third if you count “Show Me”), except in Italy, where “Raining in My Heart” was released to radio stations last month.

Here are the final results of the poll:

What is your favorite song from 'Roses'?

  • Conduct (31%, 47 Votes)
  • Schizophrenic Playboys (23%, 35 Votes)
  • Astral Projections (14%, 21 Votes)
