No Need To Argue - The Cranberries

This was the first CD album I ever bought. The Cranberries released this album way back in 1994. It has some classic songs on the album and is a really beautiful album. Dolores O'Riordan the lead singer has a bewitching voice and that really captivates the listener. Here is what I make of each song: 1. Ode To My Family - A very nice start to the album.

I love this song and it has a really good sound to it. The chorus is addictive and sticks in your head all day. ...  Read the complete review

But this is not a happy happy joy joy album, many of its tracks are emotional trials, I dont think anyone will disagree wiht that statement. The growing maturity and confidence of the band is shown in the georgeous first track Ode to my Family where Delores floats warbling above the rest of the band who conjour up ...  Read the complete review
