Corrs - Borrowed Heaven
Borrowed Heaven comes a few years after the greatest hits collection and the Corr's last proper studio album, In Blue. It's easy to see it was time well spent as of the 12 new songs here there is very little filler and plenty of catchy, rousing choruses. Lead single and opener "Summer Sunshine" is jolly, guitar-driven, 80s pop-rock and, like much of the album, has a few quirky production gimmicks to fill out the verse while the chorus explodes into big drums and meaty guitar hooks.

Corrs - Dreams - The Ultimate Corrs Collection
Irish musical siblings The Corrs--featuring sisters Andrea (vocals), Caroline (drums), Sharon (violin), and brother Jim (guitar/keyboard) --have sold over 30 million albums worldwide with their signature blend of traditional Celtic sounds and contemporary pop/rock. The internationally renowned group's first U.S. compilation spans 1996 --2006 and boasts five Top 10 U.K. singles including the #1 smash "Breathless"(a Billboard® Top 40 hit in the U.S. as well). The treasure-packed disc includes the hits "Summer Sunshine" and "Angel," live cuts featuring U2's Bono and the Stones' Ronnie Wood, a new mix of "Goodbye," and the recording debut of "All I Have To Do Is Dream" with French star Laurent Voulzy. Driven by The Corrs' gorgeous melodies, crystalline vocals, sublime harmonies, and Celtic passion, this new collection is the stuff DREAMS are made of.

Corrs - Home
Almost as famous for their killer cheekbones as their astounding musical chops, this Platinum-selling Irish family band (sisters Andrea, Caroline and Sharon plus brother, Jim) has cut a major swath, garnering an international fan-base with their Celtic-flavored electrified pop and feisty live shows. They decided to cut an album of mostly traditional songs as a memorial to their mother, Jean, a musician and song collector who died in 1999. But as with Sinead O’Connor’s 2002 Sean-Nos Nua, their treatments, while perfectly authentic, also reflect their more usual style. The opening selection, a spooky lullaby called "My Lagan Love", features martial-sounding drums, washes of parlor piano and banked strings straight out an Arab-Andalouse orchestra. "Peggy Gordon", about unrequited love, has a retro folk-rock back-beat that works beautifully with the plaintive vocals. "Old Hag" is a rollicking instrumental while the Irish-language "Buachaill On Eirne" and "Brid Og Ni MHaille", if a tad unidiomatic, do not lack charm. But the track that lingers longest in the ear is "Dimming Of The Day", a gloriously moving ballad from the pen of British singer-songwriter Richard Thompson.

Corrs - VH-1 Presents Live in Dublin
It's fitting that video channel VH1 is partnered with the obscenely attractive sibs of the Corrs for this live recording, captured in Dublin, near the band's hometown in Ireland. Given the stiff competition in the pop arena and the Corrs' rather limited touring, looks have doubtless played a part in their global ascent, although, judging by Live in Dublin, they've earned some props along the way. Both U2's Bono and Rolling Stones guitarist Ron Wood guest, the latter on the Corrs' cover of Jimi Hendrix's "Little Wing" (though oddly not on their reading of "Ruby Tuesday"). Neil Young's "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" rounds out the tribute triumvirate, and fans can expect surprisingly clear-eyed versions of major and lesser hits like "Breathless" and "Runaway," plus a spirited, fiddle-fueled traditional in "Joy of Life/Trout in the Bath."
