This is just an (not) ordinary day…


Left to right: Dolores O’Riordan (lead vocals of The Cranberries) and Alex (aka Chibi Yuuto). Autograph session at FNAC, São Paulo, August 28th. She’s the sweetest, she drinks coffee while holding an autograph session xD

And the result of that moment was this:


(Sorry for the bad picture, but I hope it’s readable xD)

She also signed my ticket, for the concert later that night. Sure, as if an autograph session wasn’t enough for one day, there was the concert:


Dolores O’Riordan concert in São Paulo, August 28th. No, that’s (unfortunately) not my hand she’s holding xD

Yesterday was magical…

        • My posture? Hahahaha! XD It’s like I’m bowing for her or something xD I was so nervous X3

          >The Cranberries were huge here when I was growing up! You’re putting me in the mood for ’90s music! 🙂

          Indeed. I didn’t catch that phase, I became a fan pretty much when they were parting ways (2002), and I love them ever since. But they were really huge, and I have hope they’ll get together again in the future.

  1. I remember likeing the Cranberries. It’s still cool you got an autograph ^-^ It’s always nice meeting people we admire when they’re nice to their fans.

    I’m with Kinoha…*gasp* we see what you look like lol.

    • I too like her since my 15’s (I’m 20 xDDDDDD) That’s not much, seeing how they parted ways exactly around that time, in 2002.

      Even though it’s only 5 years, and even though I didn’t catch their best phase, I love their music, and I love Dolores’ voice. I think everything she sings sounds beautiful.

        I’m so envious… how is her solo album? I didn’t have the chance to hear it yet.

          It’s good, not as great as The Cranberries. The songs are more personal and emotional in opposition to the critic eyes of The Cranberries. But the sound is also quite similar to The Cranberries.

      • She was anorexic.
        Now she’s really good looking and she seems so much better now. I guess it also helps to become a mother.

        During the interview she said her kids sometimes asked whether the Cranberries were famous. I find it so cute 😀
        And she answered “not really”.
