I heard the new song when I was in Europe in early September
and I think I heard it once last week on Alice 97.3 in SF, apart from that though they are way under the radar with this release.

I downloaded it about a month before it was released. It's not their best work but typical Cranberries. Personally for me I don't listen to the radio and I don't watch MTV/VH1 so I rarely hear about new releases. I usually just happen upon new stuff.

The Cranberries still get a lot of exposure in Europe and Asia. But their popularity in the US has dropped to nearly nil.
When I was in Hong Kong, they did a Cranberries MTV retrospective, showing every video they're ever done. This includes their new one for "Analyze" (a really mediocre song, IMO - sounds like a bad rehash of Dreams).

Also be sure to check out the November new release list, so this doesn't happen again

I think the impression is that they just haven't changed very much - I used to have a couple of their more recent CDs and frankly they all sounded the same as their first one (Except for "Zombie" which I always liked). I ended up dumping all but the first one which I listen to every once in a while... Just think they haven't proved themselves creative enough for me to want to pick up their new stuff; if anything the lead singer's terrible songwriting (moon/june/spoon kinda stuff) has gotten worse, it was tolerable before.

I guess she did not let it linger

Cranberries vocalist Dolores O'Riordan was arrested early Monday morning (Nov. 10) after attacking a stewardess and a police officer on a flight from New York City to Ireland.
The 43-year-old alt-rock frontwoman allegedly first attacked a stewardess on board -- fracturing one of her feet -- and later head-butted a police officer after landing. O'Riordan was arrested after Aer Lingus flight EI 110 landed in Shannon in Ireland's County Clare at approximately 5 a.m. local time.
According to the BBC, O'Riordan was detained under section four of Ireland's Criminal Justice Act and was questioned over allegations of assault. However, she soon complained of feeling ill and was taken to a hospital in Limerick, Ireland, before being released into her mother's care.
"The matter is being investigated by An Garda Siochana (Irish police)," an Aer Lingus spokesman told the BBC. "As this is a security matter we will not comment any further."The stewardess was taken to hospital for X-ray and medical treatment, while the police officer suffered no serious injuries.

Dreams, Zombie, and that Let It Linger song are on my list of Songs I Never Want to Hear on the Radio Ever Again. If I'm in the car and they DO come on, the station can't get changed fast enough.

I still put Cranberries songs on my iPod for listening at work. They could have been a lot bigger and did some great work that most people don't realize.

Their Live in Paris DVD is one of my favorite concert videos, Dolores is mesmerizing with her awkward dancing and those stuttering phrasing parts of every song. She's not aging well from the last show that I saw her play.

I am with you on that. Never liked them and these songs got overplayed to the hilt.
