Third Sleeve for my project 100 Sleeves!!
I don’t know why, but I’ve been listening to @thecranberries a LOT these last couple of weeks.
I can’t pinpoint when I first listened to their music. It probably was with “zombie” or “Just my imagination”… or was it “linger”?
The Cranberries is one of those bands we all know, what I like to call “music by osmosis”. We know them, we just do.
“Ridiculous thoughts” and “Liar” are my favorites songs at this moment. Overall an amazing band.
I chose this compilation album over a studio album ´cause I pretty much can’t sit and listen to just ONE album from them.
I listen to them all, but I go to this compilation whenever I need a quick fix.
In my opinion, this album needed a more golden cover.
Also the original misses the cranberries signature name written in lowercase. So this what I went with:
Album Cover Redesign by franzmori. This is fan art, no copyright infringement intended.
On January 15th, 2018, Dolores O’riordan passed away. So I am dedicating this piece to her. This is for you queen. May you rest in Peace.
