Нашел в инете на сайте "журнала для интеллектуальной элиты общества Твое Время" (капец, ну и название :D ) интересную статью про женщин в рок-музыке.

Отрадно, что имя Долорес стоит в одном ряду с Патти Смит, Дебби Харри, Шинед О'Коннор, Бьорк и многими другими выдающимися исполнительницами. :) Долорес названа одной из "рок-див северных островов", и ей отведен достаточно большой абзац вместе со стихотворением! :Yahoo!:

Мне кажется, это статью было бы неплохо выложить на сайте... :)

Долорес в списке "50 самых важных женщин в музыке"

http://www.zombieguide.com/cnews1138.php

Мексиканский музыкальный журнал Sonika опубликовал список 50 самых важных для мира музыки женщин. (По их мнению. :D )

Долорес на 36 месте. Она обогнала Аврил Лавинь (50), Кортни Лав (38 ), Нину Хаген (37), но уступила Шинед О'Коннор (33) и (приготовьтесь, дальше идет самое страшное! :evil: ) Мэрайе Кэри (28 ), Шакире (27) и Бритни Спирс (16). :evil:

Про Долорес написали вот это:

36. Dolores O'Riordan
(The Cranberries)
Oddly enough, there have been women who surprised the world with their voice, and we say oddly enough because they have both been Irish women that raised the ceiling into the sky, literally -- one was Sinead O'Connor in the mid '80s, and following in her footsteps very closely in her way of singing was Dolores; in addition, she turns out to be equal not only in politics, but in her songs and additudes (it has to be their Irishness). The Cranberries were not formed by her, but by the Hogan brothers who were looking for a vocalist and won over Dolores without any problems, plus in addition to her raw singing role, she could write. The band's debut disc "Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We?" from 1993 marked the beginning of the sound that would cause their second production, "No Need to Argue," to sell millions and millions of copies the following year. Since that moment, O'Riordan has been placed as one of the most important frontwomen, since her lyrics were always full of references to the religious conflicts that have afflicted her country for many decades. In 1996, with an already well-recognized career, Dolores and company returned with "To the Faithful Departed" to sell a sufficient number of copies, and in 1999, thier last disc [sic] "Bury the Hatchet," marked the start of a break which has not ended. But Dolores has left her name as an intelligent and aggressive girl, critical of the system and everything else, and great singer of a band that we still remember and whose return we (still) hope for.
