The Cranberries’ music is surging in sales and streams following the unexpected death yesterday (Jan. 15) of the group’s lead singer, Dolores O’Riordan, at age 46.
The Cranberries have four of the top 10 digital albums at Amazon.com and five of the top 10 on Amazon’s Best-Selling CDs/Vinyl chart. On both of these charts, the group’s compilation album, Stars: The Best of the Cranberries 1992-2002, is second only to the soundtrack of The Greatest Showman, which has been the nation’s best-selling album for the past two weeks. Another greatest-hits package, Dreams: The Collection, has experienced a 344,742 percent surge in sales.
The group’s most recent studio album, Something Else, shot up an impressive 913,350 percent on the Amazon chart (a spike of 627,400 in 24 hours), to No. 4; before O’Riordan’s death, the 2017 release was in the No. 36,538 spot.
The Cranberries’ vinyl sales have also surged, with their No Need to Argue LP spiking 138,384 percent and Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can’t We? spiking 111,325 percent. O’Riordan’s solo catalog has also experienced an Amazon boost, with her album No Baggage jumping 166,662 percent in sales and Are You Listening jumping 164,448 percent.
The Cranberries’ music has climbed on the iTunes chart as well. The group has three of the top five albums at iTunes and one of the top five songs. Stars is No. 2 at iTunes, followed by No Need to Argue at No. 4 and Something Else at No. 5.
In terms of songs, “Linger” is No. 4 on iTunes. (The impact won’t be felt on the Billboard charts until next week. The newly released charts are based on sales for the week ending Jan. 11.) “Linger” was the Irish alt-rock band’s biggest hit, reaching No. 8 on Billboard’s Hot 100 in February 1994. The Cranberries had three other top 30 hits on the Hot 100 or Hot 100 Airplay Chart: “Zombie” (No. 22), “Salvation” (No. 21), and “When You’re Gone” (No. 22). The Cranberries ranked even better on Billboard’s Alternative Songs. They topped that chart with “Zombie” and “Salvation” and also reached the top five with “Linger.” O’Riordan wrote or co-wrote all of the group’s hits.
