'Dolores' will go to air tonight

A Dave Fanning documentary focusing on his interviews with the late Cranberries singer Dolores O'Riordan, will air on RTÉ One tonight, at 10.35pm.

In the above clip, O'Riordan, speaks about the difficulty of adjusting to 'normal life' when the band stopped playing gigs.

The singer passed away on January 15th while recording in London.

"The Cranberries was my life," she says.

"I was scared to stop. It was like, 'what will I do if I stop? I'll go crazy, they'll have to put me in a padded cell if I stop doing this'. Just the whole idea of stopping and not being in The Cranberries.

"I remember going for a walk when we stopped, just going for a walk up the road, looking at things like a flower. I hadn't looked at a flower in three years - simple things like that I just got so far away from human things.

"I guess, because I was brought up in the middle of the countryside, in Ireland, in the Golden Vale, I guess that it affected me very badly being far away from nature and simple things, you know?

"Other celebrities who grew up in big cities are used to hotel rooms and they're used to all that man-made stuff, you know?"
