"Analyse" is a pop rock song recorded by Irish band The Cranberries. It was the first single from their fifth studio album, Wake Up and Smell the Coffee, released in 2001. The promotional video, directed by Keir McFarlane, had to be edited in consequence of the 9/11 attacks.

There is a misprint about the year of the Vicar Street recording (2000, not 2001).
Various promo singles with these two remixes were release worldwide. Track order may vary.
Music producer Marius de Vries was commissioned to remix "Analyse". The remix, which is called the "Oceanic remix", is a chill-out version of the original song with light electronica elements and piano additions. While an edited version was made available on some commercial singles, the long version was released only on promotional CDs. Previously, The Cranberries also released an airy and distorted mix of Zombie, called "Camel's Hump Mix", on the "When You're Gone" single and some slightly different mixes of "How" ("Linger" single) and "Pretty" (Prêt-à-Porter soundtrack).De Vries also remixed the band's next single, "Time Is Ticking Out".
Acoustic versions of "Analyse" were released on two US radio compilations. The first one, featured on KBCO Studio C, Volume 13, was recorded at the Boulder-based radio station KBCO on August 16, 2001[4], while the second one was recorded at Studio C of the Minneapolis-based radio station KTCZ on August 20, 2001 and featured on the Cities 97 Sampler Volume 13.[5]
The studio version "Analyse" was to be released on the Sweet November soundtrack, but was ultimately not included due to the timing of the album release.[6]
A promotion video, directed by Keir McFarlane, was planned to be released in September 2001. The original video, which pictured O'Riordan performing atop a building as a plane flew over two skyscrapers, was recalled from media after having been sent to the world's major video networks before the 9/11 attacks in New York.[7] An edited version, where all airplane images were erased, was sent back to media on October 1, 2001.[8] Both versions of the video are featured on the Stars: The Best of Videos 1992–2002 DVD.
