According to Fanberries on Facebook who was following “The Bachelorette” TV show live, The Cranberries minus Mike and Fergal played “Linger” with a string quartet at Christ Church Cathedral in Dublin while two candidates were dancing together. It was an acoustic performance.
The TV show didn’t play the whole song (only 2 minutes) and there were dialogues on it at times. However, still according to Fanberries, it is worthwhile.

For now you can watch a 2-min video captured by David Elieser Alvarez and shared on Fanberries Facebook. It looks like David filmed his TV screen with a cell phone. Thanks to him.
Another and a little longer video (3 min) was recorded by The Cranberries Brasil and shared on their Facebook. Thanks to them as well.
Later at night, Andrew Kimmel producer of “The Bachelorette” published on Instagram a photo with Dolores, and a few words:
…and Chris Harrison, the host of the show, published a 13-sec video on Instagram, with a few words as well. Obviously he was one of the few people allowed inside the cathedral during the recording. His short video is very interesting because it is an audience recording and direct sound inside the cathedral can be heard… and it sounds beautiful… with all the depth and space of such a place.
UPDATE – JUNE 23
The full appearance broadcast on abc is now available on YouTube.
Thanks to Pep Vila for sharing.
They sounded great. Weird that mike and ferg werent there though. Also weird to see dolores and noel together after hearing she was sueing him. Maybe they have already settled out of court?
Sometimes people have to Bury The Hatchet, Right ?
Perhaps the tension was between Noel and her ex-husband. Something that has now “resolved” itself.
Good point
The audience recording is brilliant. To me the sound is way more interesting than the official video. I love it. Magic indeed. And Without dialogues.
So great to see Dolores and Noel together again.
