In the Little Red Berry Band, Dorothy Oriodan's high pitched voice with a slight breathing sound, obvious Irish accent and Celtic style melody give her a sad personal characteristics and cold core in her singing, but her singing voice reveals more firmness than fragility, even surpassing the strong electric guitar sound.When the band was first established, it was at the beginning of the 1990s when alternative rock and roll rose: songs with beautiful tunes, originated from punk, and dominated by guitar were often sung from campus radio stations to commercial radio stations. Songs such as Linger and Dreams were sung around the world, becoming many youth memories of the 1990s.After the song "Zombie", as the band's album in the late 1990s became serious, they were more concerned with conveying social and political information than love songs[3](Dagong Online Review)。
