On this week’s Pump Up the Jams, we break down The Cranberries’ classic “Linger.” From Dolores O’Riordan’s unmistakable vocal to the swirling strings and the song’s roots in a teenage love story, we dig into how this track became one of the defining moments of ’90s alternative rock.
We talk about the band’s rise from Limerick, the emotion that made Linger resonate so deeply, and why it still holds a place in pop culture today.
