#48 | The Cranberries | In The End
BMG
According to Quentin Harrison: “On the album’s closing title piece, when O’Riordan sings, “Take my house / take my car / take the clothes / But you can’t take the spirit,” it comes out as a powerful declaration of emotional intent and authenticity further driving home that a voice of a generation has been silenced. In The End is a bittersweet coda for The Cranberries, an unexpected one that looks to what could have been and manages to turn heartbreak into a compelling and ultimately hopeful soundtrack.”
