I must admit the 90s were not particularly special for me music wise. The reasons are simple; I’d finished college and I’d started to work and to create my own family, so music was no longer a crucial feature in my everyday existence. Perhaps it was only that I was no longer a teenager and I preferred to stick to the bands and singers I already knew and loved.
Having said that, there were certain groups that caught my attention and whose songs I enjoyed. One of those bands were The Cranberries, whose frontwoman Dolores O’Riordan, had a beautiful and original voice. They were from Ireland, which made them even more dear to me, since the emerald isle was the place where I learned to speak English for real, and where I made wonderful friends.
I’ve chosen one of their big hits from their 1999 album Bury the Hatchet . The song is called Animal Instinct and the promotional video shows an interesting story. I hope you like it.

Suddenly something has happened to me
As I was having my cup of tea
Suddenly I was feeling depressed
I was utterly and totally stressed
Do you know you made me cry
Do you know you made me die
And the thing that gets to me
Is you’ll never really see
And the thing that freaks me out
Is I’ll always be in doubt
It is a lovely thing that we have
It is a lovely thing that we
It is a lovely thing, the animal
The animal instinct
So take my hands and come with me
We will change reality
So take my hands and we will pray
They won’t take you away
They will never make me cry, no
They will never make me die
And the thing that gets to me
Is you’ll never really see
And the thing that freaks me out
Is I’ll always be in doubt
The animal, the animal,
The animal instinct in me
It’s the animal, the animal,
The animal instinct in me
It’s the animal, it’s the animal,
It’s the animal instinct in me (x2)
