This is sad. I liked Cranberries songs. They were so unique. I wonder whether drugs had something to do with her premature death:

he family of The Cranberries singer Dolores O'Riordan are "devastated" by her death at the age of 46, her publicist has said.

Dolores O'Riordan: The Cranberries post tribute to 'extraordinary talent'
"The lead singer with the Irish band The Cranberries, was in London for a short recording session. No further details are available at this time.
"Family members are devastated to hear the breaking news and have requested privacy at this very difficult time."
The singer, from Limerick, enjoyed success with the band in the 1990s with hit singles including Linger and Zombie.
In May 2017 The Cranberries cancelled a string of shows after O'Riordan was instructed by her doctors to stop working for a month for medical reasons associated with a back problem.
A further set of shows in North America, due to take place in September and October, were cancelled in July.
On December 20 O'Riordan tweeted from the band's official account, writing: "Hi All, Dolores here. Feeling good! I did my first bit of gigging in months at the weekend, performed a few songs at the Billboard annual staff holiday party in New York with the house band.
"Really enjoyed it! Happy Christmas to all our fans!! Xo"
O'Riordan was mother to son Taylor and daughters Molly and Dakota.
