          The Corrs are an Irish family band that combine pop rock with traditional Irish themes within their music. The group consists of the Corr siblings, Andrea (lead vocals, tin whistle, ukulele), Sharon(violin, keyboards, vocals), Caroline(drums, percussion, piano, bodhrán, vocals) and Jim (guitar, piano, keyboards, vocals). They are from Dundalk, County Louth, Ireland.

        The Corrs have released seven studio albums and numerous singles, which have reached Platinum in many countries, and have sold 40 million albums worldwide. Talk on Corners, their most successful album to date, reached multi-Platinum status in Australia, and in the UK it was the highest selling album of the year. The band is one of only a handful of acts who have held the top two positions simultaneously in the UK album charts, with Talk on Corners at number one and Forgiven, Not Forgotten at number two. The latter was the year's third highest selling album in Australia. Their third studio album, In Blue, went to number one in seventeen countries.

     The Corrs have been actively involved in philanthropic activities. They have performed in numerous charity concerts, such as The Prince's Trust event in 2004 and Live 8 in 2005. The same year, they were awarded honorary MBEs for their contributions to music and charity. The band was inactive for almost ten years because Jim and Caroline were raising families, while Andrea and Sharon were pursuing solo careers while raising families of their own. According to Sharon, it was uncertain if and when The Corrs would reunite. Rumours of a reunion sparked in early 2015 and in a radio interview with Chris Evans in June 2015, Andrea confirmed that The Corrs were working on a new album and would play the BBC Radio 2 Live in Hyde Park festival. Their sixth studio album, White Light, was released on 27 November 2015, and was accompanied by a European tour. After two years, their seventh studio album, Jupiter Calling, was released on 10 November 2017.

         In Blue is the third studio album by Irish pop rock band The Corrs, released in 2000 which saw the band become known in the United States. The title of the album comes from a lyric in the song "Give Me a Reason". As well as the UK number one single "Breathless", the album also contains new versions of "Radio" and "At Your Side", which had appeared on their previous album The Corrs Unplugged. Mutt Lange co-wrote and produced three songs from the album.

       Several of the tracks were used in various television programmes and films: "Rebel Heart" as the theme for the TV miniseries of the same name; "One Night" in Mad About Mambo; "At Your Side" in Say It Isn't So and the trailer for the film The Holiday; and "All the Love in the World" in the film America's Sweethearts.

You're irresistible, you're mine

 

Don't want you for the weekend

Don't want you for a day

Don't need a love divided

Don't want to feel this way

 

See I want you to need me (the way I need you)

Just like I need you (the way I see you)

And I want you to see me like no one before

 

You're irresistible, you're natural and physical

It's indefinable, magical, illogical

So make-you-mineable, you're mine

 

So can't you see I'm tortured?

Oh, can't you hear my pain?

If you just let me show you (show you)

I'll be your summer rain

 

Then you'll feel that you want me (the way I'm feeling)

Just like I want you (the way I want you)

And you know nothing's better

It's like nothing before

 

You're irresistible, you're natural and physical

It's indefinable, magical, illogical

So make-you-mine-able, you're mine

 

Now you feel what I'm feeling (don't you feel what I'm feeling)

Don't you know that it's more (it can take you places)

It can take you places like never before

 

You're irresistible, you're natural and physical

It's indifineable, magical, illogical

So make-you-mine-able, you're mine (you're irresistible)

You're irresistible, you're natural and physical (indifineable)

So indifineable, magical, illogical (make-you-mine-able)

So make-you-mine-able, you're mine.
