I was into the Cranberries in high school. Way too young. I want to hear the cause.

One article implies suicide, she tried once before. She had some demons, worse than others, we all do, another reason to go talk to someone before you do something drastic to yourself.Greg Bernhardt said:

She has a phenomenal song with Jam & Spoon called "Mirror Lover"... I don't think it was ever released in the States, but you should be able to find it on places like Pandora or Youtube.
