And Flying Up The Modern Rock Charts On Its Way To Peaking At No.4ā¦ itās The Cranberries with āLinger.ā
Dolores O'Riordan was a quietly spoken country girl from a town called Ballybricken, a town so conservative that her brothers bet up her boyfriend for being a punk. And the only way she was able to wear short hair was to stick chewing gum in it so that her mother would have to cut it out. Obviously Delores had to leave, to escape to the big smoke of Limmerick, to join a band called The Cranberry Saw Us. Itās a pun. A bad pun. Such a bad pun that youāll probably have to read it over a few times to figure out what the pun is.
āLingerā was about a romance that Delores had with a soldier, who was shipped off to Lebanon as part of the United Nationās Peacekeeping Force, for which Ireland ā who knows a little about sectarian skirmishes ā has provided the most troops. And, presumedly, their tanks and their bombs, and their bombs and their guns, and oops sorry, thatās a different song.
Before he left for Lebanon however, he dumped Delores. Assuming that is that they were actually going out. He did dance with her though. And he did give her her first āproper kiss.ā But thenā¦ āI couldnāt wait to see him again, but at the next disco, he walked straight past me and asked my friend to dance. I was devastated. Everyone saw me being dumped, publicly, at the disco.ā
Turns out he was lying all the time. It was just a game to him. He didn't have to, didn't have to, didn't have to let it linger... but then again, I can't hate the dude. If it weren't for his breaking of Delores' heart, we wouldn't have "Linger."

āLingerā is a 10. Just try and avoid the crappy Royel Otis version.

I'm just gonna leave this here:

The fact that they waited eight years to run it back is an especially poetic touch.
The underlying problem is that anyone in any industry has to depend on their employer for healthcare.

People falling for a scam, memeing it for years, and then the scammers using the notoriety from those memes to sell the exact same scam all over again really sums up the current American moment in a nutshell
