Solo Andrea Corr Needs No Siblings

By Mike Farragher

REMEMBER when Janet Jackson danced out from under her famous family’s shadow and released her first solo CD two decades ago? The press made much out of the fact that she was on her own, in control, and exploring the steamy sides of her personality that were in sharp contrast to her clean little sister image.

Andrea Corr doesn’t need such an introduction for her first solo CD, Ten Feet High. Though she was the youngest member of the Corrs, the Dundalk, Co. Louth native never milked the kid sister angle.

Her subtle sexuality was a key ingredient to the Corrs’ look, sound, and feel. If the pouty lips and sultry eye makeup weren’t enough, she had that humid vocal that left you, in the words of their biggest hit, “Breathless.”

In fact, the sometimes pedestrian traditional garnishes and sterile production on some of the Corrs albums sometimes hindered the sensual possibilities of Corr. On Ten Feet High, that steamed allure comes roaring out of the speakers with “Hello Boys,” the first track.

“Hello boys I know you’re watching me/and I think that I like it/I’m so tired I can barely see/come see where my light is/now I don’t want conversation/it gets in the way/just use your intuition, I came here to play,” she coos over an electronic strutting melody that is desperately searching for a stripper’s pole.

Corr enlists Bono and his pal Gavin Friday of the Virgin Prunes to supervise the construction of the restless electronica that pulses behind her. The trio clearly found their inner Depeche Mode in the process.

The sound strikes the pitch perfect balance of the cool detachment and thawing that is held in the promise of well-made electronic soundscapes. Their ear for sound is impeccable, creating perfect moods for Corr’s melodies.

“Sipping Champagne from a Straw” has a hollow, cheesy Latin samba vibe that works perfectly as Corr tells the story of a spoiled, hollow, and cheesy rich girl and her tummy tuck. “I Do” is a delicate, beautiful melody constructed from a toy piano that is the perfect back drop for Corr’s dreamy lullaby prose.

There’s not a traditional instrument in her bag of tricks, which may disappoint some fans of her band. For those willing to listen with an open ear, however, Ten Feet High is full of satisfying sounds that are sure to tickle your fancy.

The last Corrs studio CD of original songs, Borrowed Heaven, tackled more secure subject perseverance in the face of loss (inspired by the death of the family’s matriarch). Ten Feet High continues down that sophisticated path.

“Ideal World” is a string of vignettes that narrates the stories of people living unfulfilled lives. “Johnny signs in his share of autographs of the all the people he’s made laugh/and he walks home to an empty flat/late night TV, Vicodin/ he can’t forget what he had before/in an ideal world, she’d think I’m still funny/she’d be waiting in bed for me,” she sings over a deceptively sweet acoustic guitar strum.

Though Ten Feet High is a showcase for Corr’s strong songwriting ability, the highlight of the disc is “Take Me, I’m Yours,” the Squeeze chestnut. The sinister guitar riffs of the melody are buried in fuzz as Corr phones in a jaded, processed vocal.

“Amusing belly dancers distract me from my wine/across Tibetan mountains/the memories are mine,” she sings in the lowest register she can muster. It’s pure pop perfection.

In recent years, her band has been put on hold as her sisters and brother settle into domesticity with new families. This leaves Andrea to her own devices, prowling the discotheque by herself, with one ear soaking in the modern club beats while one eye scans the beautiful bodies for inspiration.

She should leave the siblings home more often, as this first solo CD is a triumph. It’s gratifying to find a pop priestess that can steam the windows of the nightclub with the best of them, but unlike other starlets, she hops into the limo at the end of the night with head up. Ten Feet High in the knowledge that her artistry, dignity and undergarments are intact.

Andrea Corr, Falling Star?

With her musical siblings off tending to their young families, Andrea Corr decided to release her own solo album... but is anyone listening? Deidre Reynolds reports

Sultry star Andrea Corr is famous for making funeral fashion foxy. Since first hitting the spotlight, the gorgeous goth has honed her image around raven hair, ivory skin and slinky black numbers. These days, though, you'd be forgiven for thinking that Andrea's pitch-black garbs are more than just a fashion statement as she mourns the passing of her pop prime.

As lead singer of the Dundalk sibling troupe, Andrea was one of Irish music's biggest success stories. With vampish beauty and a willowy voice, the stunning sister automatically became the poster girl for the niche brand of harmless Celtic pop and helped to flog a staggering 60 million albums across the globe. But the word is that the baby of the band's solo career is in crisis.

Sisters Sharon and Caroline and brother Jim swapped touring for teething two years ago, putting the band on the backburner to spend time with their tots. And the footloose frontwoman used the hiatus for her very own labour of love -- solo album Ten Feet High.

"In 2005, the rest of my family seemed to be pregnant or having babies or already had babies and this looked contagious," 33 year-old Andrea explained. "So I think I needed to go away. Our manager came to me and said: 'Look, maybe this is the time for you to make a solo record. I'm thinking you either go with it now or you don't go with it at all.' I'd songs already written, so I just decided: 'Yeah, well, okay, maybe I should do that.' I was quite excited at the prospect of doing it."

But now it seems that Aunty Andrea should have stuck to babysitting her five nieces and nephews until the musical clan could regroup.

The collection of pop and trad tracks was released this summer after a three-year gestation period. But it eluded the respectable Top 30 chart. Debut single, anti-war tune Shame on You limped into the 108 spot. And instead of sparkling, latest release Champagne Through a Straw simply fizzled out after failing to register in the UK top 100.

He may be able to save the world, but it appears that not even pop prophet Bono, who executive-produced the record, can rescue the star's ill-fated solo bid. It's a long way from Dundalk to the top, but it looks equally steep on the way back down.

Encouraged by their musician parents Jean and Gerry, the latter-day Von Trapps all learned to play the piano at a young age. Andrea elbowed in on the act the moment she graduated from Don Lughaidh Convent School.

The trio-turned-quartet got their shot at fame in 1991 when they auditioned for a role in Alan Parker's film of Roddy Doyle's The Commitments. While the rest of the gang secured blink-and-you'll-miss-it turns in the hit film, eye-catching Andrea landed a speaking part. And it wouldn't be the last time the tiny siren was projected onto the big screen: she later got a gig playing Juan Peron's mistress alongside Madonna in Evita and the singing voice of Kayley in animated flick Quest for Camelot.

However, it was her humble role in The Commitments that proved most fateful. At the audition, the singing siblings were spotted and snapped up by manager John Hughes.

After three years of touring, fate intervened again. In 1994, the American Ambassador to Ireland Jean Kennedy Smith heard Andrea and her family singing and invited the brood to play at a high-profile event in Boston.

Once Stateside, the band didn't miss a beat. Flanked by her siblings, 5ft 1in Andrea marched into the office of Atlantic Records producer, David Foster and whipped out the tin whistle and violin. The ballsy impromptu session worked; the porcelain-skinned pop princess packed the SPF and headed to California, where The Corrs' debut Forgiven not Forgotten hit shelves within a year.

Despite breaking the States, the grass of home was greener for the group. In 1998 catchy singles Runaway and Someday made the album Talk On Corners a No 1 hit in 13 countries throughout Europe, including the UK. And third outing In Blue also sold well, going gold or platinum in 21 countries.

But after a decade and a half of hard work, the release of the album Home heralded a break for The Corrs. Sharon is expecting her second child with hubby Gavin Bonnar; Jim has a little boy; and Caroline and spouse Frank Wood have their hands full with three tots.

"My brothers and sisters have been very supportive, but they needed to take the time themselves to do what they needed to do," Andrea said. "Obviously I wasn't on the same path as them in my life at the time. But they tell me they like the record and they look like they're telling the truth."

Blood is thicker than water though; Andrea's vocal transition from dulcet tones to cat-in-heat rasp seems to have startled the CD-buying public. But at least she has the shoulder of boyfriend Brett Desmond, son of billionaire businessman Dermot Desmond, to cry on.

As sales of her solo effort continue to nosedive, Andrea, who has also dated music manager Giles Baxendale, Fun Lovin' Criminal Huey Morgan and been pursued by Robbie Williams, conceded that she would like to front the family outfit again in the future.

"It's definitely not all over for The Corrs," she revealed. "I really, really love our records and I'm so proud of them and whatever we make in the future."

And she's remaining philosophical about the disappointing sales of Ten Feet High. "This isn't about showing the world the real me. This is just an album where I've had fun and an adventure."

Andrea Corr Hates Fame

Irish singer ANDREA CORR hates her fame and has slammed the cult of celebrity in a new track. The star has just released solo single Champagne From A Straw, a critique on today's instant celebrity lifestyle. And Corr insists she much prefers staying out of the limelight and "being normal". She says, "I don't hang around with celebrities. The song is just about someone who is famous just for being famous. "I don't mean to be judgemental, it's just an observation. I like having a normal life and don't like being paparazzi'd. I don't court it or put myself in those situations, it's just not me."

Andrea Corr Interview

60 Seconds: Andrea Corr
By ANDREW WILLIAMS - Tuesday, August 28, 2007

Andrea Corr sold 30 million albums with The Corrs. Now, with the lead singer's siblings taking a break from the music scene to spend time with their children, Andrea is soldiering on with her debut solo offering, Ten Feet High. She hopes to better her last single Shame On You with her current release Champagne From A Straw.

How’s the solo career going?
I’m thrilled with the record. I look at it more as a solo project than a solo career, so I’m happy. It is a bit weird doing it on my own, though. I’m out of my comfort zone. All my life, I’ve worked with my family, so doing it on my own was strange. This time, it wasn’t a democracy, it was all my own decisions. I wrote it because I wanted to write – with no record in mind. So perhaps I was a bit more daring with what I wrote. When you’re in a band that has sold so many records, there’s an expectation that your sound should be the same every time so I was totally free of those restrictions with this.

The single Champagne From A Straw is about the excesses of celebrity life. Is it based on first-hand experience?
No, it’s just a story centred on the things we all see in celebrity magazines and on TV. I don’t hang around with celebrities. The song is about someone who is famous just for being famous. I don’t mean to be judgmental, it’s just an observation. I like having a normal life and don’t like being paparazzi’d. I don’t court it or put myself in those situations, it’s just not me.

When did you realise you were famous?
In Australia with The Corrs, we had no idea people knew us or that they’d been into the first record. I was drying my hair in the hotel and I heard the man on the radio say, ‘Andrea Corr is in the country,’ which was weird. We then went into the rainforest in Cairns. We were just your average tourists but the other people on the tour were saying, ‘Oh my God, it’s The Corrs,’ which was strange.

You’ve been called the most eligible woman in Ireland. Have you got a queue of suitors banging on your door?
No. I don’t think of myself in that way. I’m just myself. I don’t pay attention to things like that – but it’s flattering.

What’s the weirdest thing you had to do to promote the band?
We had to take part in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York. The whole of America watches, so the record company was very excited. We were supposed to go on the parade and then sing two minutes of Breathless outside Macy’s at the end. We got there to discover we had to ride through the parade on a huge turkey. And we were on it for two hours. It was horrific. When we came to perform the song, all I could do was laugh – it was ridiculous.

Andrea Corr - Champagne From A Straw Track Review

The Corrs' career spanned twelve years. They sold thirty million albums - despite managing to make Enya sound like Metallica - and now, leaving behind a legacy of sonic torture that would impress the most nefarious of weapons designers, they've decided to retire and 'spend more time with their families'.

Not Andrea Corr, though. Champagne From A Straw is the second single from her debut Nellee Hooper-produced solo album, Ten Feet High. Will it be responsible for launching her solo career into the stratosphere of pop divadom? Will it buggery.

And it's not really Andrea's fault: the blame for this ill-intentioned dig at celebrity excess can be laid squarely at the mixing desk of Nellee Hooper. Really, Nellee - what where you thinking? What happened to the magic touch that launched Bjork to solo acclaim? Champagne From A Straw thuds where it should dance, a vaguely Caribbean-influenced backing track that feels like lead weights around Andrea's voice. Add in trumpet fills that sound like incidental music from The Shopping Network, piano chords that land like goose-stepping feet - it's mediocre, it's borderline offensive, it's not something that you should waste your money on.

Andrea Corr chats to I Like Music

ilikemusic caught up with Andrea Corr to talk about her new album, working with Nellee Hooper and her time in The Corrs.

"I Like Music because… it romanticises every little simple moment." ANDREA CORR

ILM: Your debut solo album is released on June 25th. Which track did you have the most fun laying down in the studio?

ANDREA: That's kinda hard because they were all quite fun, because they're so story-based so Nellee would come up with very different ideas for each one. Champagne From A Straw was fun because we had the whole Moriarty band type thing happening. I Do was fun because it was so magical with the music box and Hello Boys was fun in a totally different way. We had a good time.

ILM: It's produced by Nellee Hooper, with Bono at the helm as executive producer, what did you learn from those guys?

ANDREA: Nellee produced it all. Bono and my friend Dan Friday are executive producers on it because they set me up with Nellee. But Nellee… I learned so much. Why he was really perfect for the project… and I really wanted him on it, I loved him from Bjork's debut album, which is one of my favourite albums. I'd heard him described as more like a director of movies than a producer, and the way the songs are, they're so story-based so, in a way they're like little films, and that's the way both myself and Nellee saw it so that's why the album is quite eclectic, there's a different feel the whole way through to do with the different stories.

Andrea Corr Releases Second Single "Champagne From A Straw"

Andrea Corr - Champagne From A Straw

Andrea Corr 2007 Atlantic Records artist, Andrea Corr releases her second single, 'Champagne From A Straw' on August 27th. It is taken from her Nellee Hooper produced debut solo album, 'Ten Feet High' which also sees Bono at the helm as executive producer with Gavin Friday.

This new single follows the instantly catchy and deceptively pretty 'Shame On You (To Keep My Love From Me)'.

When mutual friend Bono introduced Andrea to Nellee Hooper, who she had particularly admired for his work with Bjork and Massive Attack, a solid union was formed. As Andrea says, " With this album, I've written the story and Nellee has painted the picture." Indeed, Ten Feet High is a kaleidoscope of colours and style with Andrea weaving her multiple characters through each song.

With the forthcoming, 'Champagne From A Straw', Andrea has written a wry dissertation on the vagaries of a celebrity lifestyle - "I've got my all-over tan and my tummy-tuck/Big house in the country, with expensive bags for my scary little dogs..." It is already enjoying support from Radio 2 and has been B-listed at the station.

When Dundalk-born Andrea was just 15 years old, she joined forces with her sisters Sharon and Caroline and her brother Jim to form The Corrs. Over the next decade and a half, the siblings would grow to become one of the biggest acts in the world. In 1998, their album Talk On Corners became the UK's best selling album, the first Irish act ever to achieve this feat. Each of their albums has sold an average of 5 million copies, a strike rate few else have accomplished.

Twelve years and thirty million albums later, The Corrs decided it was time for their much-mooted hiatus following the release of 2005's 'Home'. Each one of them went home to Ireland, but whilst Sharon, Caroline and Jim began to raise their families, Andrea undertook a new life of her own as a solo artist.
"With this record, it isn't necessarily about showing the world the real me," she says. "It's nothing that contrived. No, this is just an album where I've had fun and adventure; I'm thrilled with the results. Even if nothing happens with it, I'll go to my grave happy I've done it."

Andrea Corr and Brett's Romance

Andrea and Brett happy to share secret

LOVE ceases to be a pleasure, Proust once said, when it ceases to be a secret. All I can say is, Prousty was talking through his asthma. Take the case of Brett Desmond and Andrea Corr.

There is no longer anything secret about their relationship but there is certainly no evidence of any dwindling of their pleasure.

First I brought you news of their bash in Ibiza last week. Now I am here to tell you of an outing in the Cipriani in Davies Street in London last Monday.

The young Irish superstar and the dashing businessman were dining at the chic restaurant with Brett's father, Dermot, and three other diners.

"The relationship must be going well if daddy Dermot was there," my runaway spy in the Cipriani told me.

Andrea Corr's ten feet high with new romance but no nuptials planned

SINGER Andrea Corr has revealed she is head over heels in love with her new boyfriend, Brett Desmond.

The newly solo star, from Dundalk, has been going out with Brett, the son of billionaire businessman Dermot Desmond, for the past eight months.

Now happy to be seen out and about together, it seems things are really heating up between the pair. However, the gorgeous singer says the couple have no plans to tie the knot.

"The rest of my family are all settled but I'm not there yet," said the 33-year-old.

"I have a boyfriend but obviously I am not married and haven't got babies yet. I'm definitely not in any rush."

But while Andrea and Brett are happy to wait a bit longer before walking down the isle, the Corr's father Gerry hopes it will happen sooner rather than later.

"My daddy jokes with me like, 'Come on, Andrea. When are you going to do this?' and everything like that.

Wedding bells aside, the Ten Feet High singer also admitted that since becoming an auntie, she is certain she wants to have children in the future. Her sister Sharon has one child and one on the way, her other sister Caroline has three children and brother Jim has one.

"Of course I want a family at some stage. The girls and Jim and their children intensify that (broody) feeling as I love them so much my heart hurts."

Ambitious Andrea also shrugged off poor sales of her first solo album, Ten Feet High and said despite perceptions, her career is not the most important thing in her life. "I'd be happy to be remembered as a good friend," she said."

Ten Feet High Album Review

TEN FEET HIGH
Artist: ANDREA CORR
Genre: Pop(Atlantic/Warner)
Reviewer: JO TIMBUONG

REMEMBER that talented sibling-quartet from Ireland called The Corrs? They dominated the airwaves with their fusion of Celtic folk and pop, churning out hits like Runaway, What Can I Do and Breathless.

More than a decade after The Corrs’ debut, Andrea Corr, the lead singer and youngest sister, has broken away from the group and released her first solo album, Ten Feet High. Her singing without the musical accompaniment of her elder siblings took a bit of getting used to but I eventually settled into the album.

Don’t expect any Celtic influences in the music because it is purely pop (and come to think of it, each The Corrs album moved further away from the folky sound of their debut). There are certainly no violins, bordhrans or tin whistles to be found here. Andrea’s style has changed and she now sounds more seductive and naughty compared to the safe vibes of The Corrs.

Her change in style bothers me a bit. She sounds as if she’s really desperate to break away from what her group offered. The end result is that she has lost some of the originality and charm of her earlier recordings, which really does nothing to help her establish herself as a solo singer.

Still, this album overcomes an uneven start to prove itself worthy of notice.

The album opener sees Andrea trying to be overly sexy with Hello Boys. It doesn’t turn out according to plan and she comes across as a novice bar singer instead.

Another song that got on my nerves was Anybody There. It starts out great with a simple four-note intro until she comes to the chorus and sings: “You say there’d be manybody there to love me.” I don’t think that’s a real word.

But I suppose someone talked some sense into her while recording the last few tracks on the album because she begins to sound like herself again and you could feel all pretence melt away. There’s a run of really good songs from the fifth track (Ten Feet High) onwards before the 12-track album ends on a high note. Not because she has gone out of her way to prove that she can sing a la Mariah but because the closer Ideal World is thought-provoking.

If you do get this album, I’d advise you to be patient with the silliness of the first half. The last few tunes are really worth it. Hopefully, there’ll be more consistent albums to come from this lady.

Is a Bhríd Óg Ní Mháille
'S tú d'fhág mo chroí cráite

Níl ní ar bith is áille
Ná'n ghealach os cionn a' tsáile
Ná bláth bán na n-airne

Ó siúd mar bíos mo ghrá-sa

Nach ndearna riamh claon

Is buachaill deas óg mé
'Tá triall chun mo phósta
'S ní buan i bhfad beo mé
Mura bhfaighidh mé mo mhian
A chuisle is a stóirín
Déan réidh agus bí romhamsa
Cionn deireanach den Domhnach

Translation

Oh Bríd Óg O'Malley
You have left my heart breaking
You've sent the death pangs
Of sorrow to pierce my heart sore
A hundred men are craving
For your breathtaking beauty
You're the fairest of maidens
In Oriel for sure

No spectacle is fairer
Than moonbeams on the harbor
Or the sweet scented blossoms
Of the sloe on the thorn
But my love shines much brighter
In looks and in stature
That honey-lipped beauty
Who never said wrong

I'm a handsome young fellow
Who is thinking of wedlock
But my life will be shortened
If I don't get my dear
My love and my darling
Prepare now to meet me
On next Sunday evening
On the road to Drum Slieve

'Tis sadly and lonely
I pass the time on Sunday
My head bowed in sorrow
My sights heavy with woe
As I gaze upon the byways
That my true love walks over
Now she's wed to another
And left me forlorn

I Know My Love Lyrics - The Corrs - Dreams

I know my love by his way of walking
And I know my love by his way of talking
And I know my love dressed in a suit of blue
And if my love leaves me what will I do...

And still she cried, "I love him the best
And a troubled mind sure can know no rest"
And still she cried, "Bonny boys are few
And if my love leaves me what will I do"

There is a dance house in Maradyke
And there my true love goes every night
He takes a strange girl upon his knee
Well now don't you think that that vexes me?

And still she cried, "I love him the best
And a troubled mind sure can know no rest"
And still she cried, "Bonny boys are few
And if my love leaves me what will I do"

If my love knew I can wash and wring
If my love knew I can sew and spin
I'd make a coat of the finest kind
But the want of money sure leaves me behind

And still she cried, "I love him the best
And a troubled mind sure can know no rest"
And still she cried, "Bonny boys are few
And if my love leaves me what will I do"

I know my love is an arrant rover
I know he'll wander the wild world over
In dear old Ireland he'll no longer tarry
An American girl he's sure to marry

And still she cried, "I love him the best
And a troubled mind sure can know no rest"
And still she cried, "Bonny boys are few
And if my love leaves me what will I do"

And still she cried, "I love him the best
And a troubled mind sure can know no rest"
And still she cried, "Bonny boys are few
And if my love leaves me what will I do"

What will I do...

Ruby Tuesday Lyrics - The Corrs - Dreams

She would never say where she came from
Yesterday don't matter if it's gone
While the sun is bright
Or in the darkest night
No one knows
She comes and goes

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you...

Don't question why she needs to be so free
She'll tell you it's the only way to be
She just can't be chained
To a life where nothing's gained
And nothing's lost
At such a cost

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you...

There's no time to lose, I heard her say
Catch your dreams before they slip away
Dying all the time
Lose your dreams
And you will lose your mind.
Ain't life unkind?

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you...

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you...

Old Town Lyrics - The Corrs - Home, Dreams

The girl's a fool
She broke the rule
She hurt him hard
This time he will break down
She's lost his trust
And so she must
Know all is lost
The system has broke down
Romance has broke down

This boy is crackin' up
This boy has broken down
This boy is crackin' up
This boy has broke down

She plays it hard
She plays it tough
But that’s enough
The love is over
She's broke his heart and that is rough
But in the end he'll soon recover
The romance is over

This boy is crackin' up
This boy has broken down
This boy is crackin' up
This boy has broke down

Hola

[Solo]

This boy is crackin' up
This boy has broken down
This boy is crackin' up
This boy has broke down

I've been spending my money
In the old town
It's not the same honey
With you not around
I've been spending my time
In the old town
I sure miss you honey
Now you're not around
You're not around
This old town

Hola

This boy is crackin' up
This boy has broken down

Yeah yeah
This boy is crackin' up
This boy has broke down

This boy is crackin' up crackin up
This boy has broken down

Yeah yeah
This boy is crackin' up
This boy has broke down
This boy has broken down
This boy has broke down

Angel Lyrics - The Corrs - Borrowed Heaven, Dreams

Didn't care to look like anyone else
And she was beautiful, so beautiful
I still hear her laugh like she's here

Shower it down on all the young
It isn't so wrong to have such fun

Forever angel
I hope they love yo like we do
Forever angel
I'll be proud to be like you
Be like you
(I'll be proud to be like you)

Does the sun shine up at you when you are looking down?
Do you get along with the others around?

It's got to be better than before
You don't need to worry now you're gone

Forever angel
I hope they love yo like we do
Forever angel
I'll be proud to be like you
Be like you
Just like you

And when i go to sleep at night
I'll thank you for each blessed thing sorrounding me
For every fall I'll ever break
Each moment`s breath I wanna taste
Confidence and conscience
Decadent extravagance
Never ending providence
For loving when I had teh chance

Forever angel
I hope they love yo like we do
Forever angel
I'll be proud to be like you
Forever angel
I'll be proud to be like you
Forever angel
I'll be proud to be like you

No Frontiers Lyrics - The Corrs - The Corrs MTV Unplugged

If life is a river and your heart is a boat
And just like a water baby, baby born to float
And if life is a wild wind that blows way on high
And your heart is Amelia dying to fly
Heaven knows no frontiers and I've seen heaven in your eyes

And if life is a bar room in which we must wait
'Round the man with his fingers on the ivory gates
Where we sing until dawn of our fears and our fates
And we stack all the dead men in self addressed crates

In your eyes faint as the singing of a lark
That somehow this black night
Feels warmer for the spark
Warmer for the spark
To hold us 'til the day
When fear will lose its grip
And heaven has its ways

Heaven knows no frontiers
And I've seen heaven in your eyes

If your life is a rough bed of brambles and nails
And your spirit's a slave to man's whips and man's jails

Where you thirst and you hunger for justice and right
And your heart is a pure flame of man's constant night

In your eyes faint as the singing of a lark
That somehow this black night
Feels warmer for the spark
Warmer for the spark
To hold us 'til the day when fear will lose its grip
And heaven has its ways
And heaven has its ways
When all will harmonise
And you know what's in our hearts
The dream will realise

Heaven knows no frontiers
And I've seen heaven in your eyes
Heaven knows no frontiers
And I've seen heaven in your eyes

All I Have To Do Is Dream Lyrics - The Corrs - Dreams

Dream, dream, dream, dream
Dream, dream, dream
When I want you in my arms
When I want you and all your charms
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Dream, dream, dream, dream

When I feel blue in the night
And I need you to hold me tight
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Dream

I can make you mine taste your lip some wine
Anytime night or day
Only trouble is gee whiz
I'm dreamin' my life away

I need you so that I could die
I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Dream, dream, dream, dream
Dream, dream, dream

I can make you mine taste your lip some wine
Anytime night or day
Only trouble is gee whiz
I'm dreamin' my life away

I can make you mine taste your lip some wine
Anytime night or day
Only trouble is gee whiz
I'm dreamin' my life away

I need you so that I could die
I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want u all I have to do is
Dream, dream, dream, dream
Dream, dream, dream

What Can I Do Lyrics - The Corrs - Talk On Corners, Dreams

I haven't slept at all in days
It's been so long since we've talked
And I have been here many times
I just don't know what I'm doing wrong

What can I do to make you love me
What can I do to make you care
What can I say to make you feel this
What can I do to get you there

There's only so much I can take
And I just got to let it go
And who knows I might feel better
If I don't try and I don't hope

What can I do to make you love me
What can I do to make you care
What can I say to make you feel this
What can I do to get you there

No more waiting, No more aching
No more fighting, No more trying

Maybe there's nothing more to say
And in a funny way I'm calm
Because the power is not mine
I'm just gonna let it fly

What can I do to make you love me
What can I do to make you care
What can I say to make you feel this
What can I do to get you there

Love me..

Summer Sunshine Lyrics - The Corrs - Borrowed Heaven, Dreams

Everyone's changing
I stay the same
I’m a solo cello
Outside a chorus
I’ve got a secret
It’s time for me to tell it
You’ve been keeping me warm

To sweet beginnings
And bitter endings
In coffee city
We borrow heaven
Don’t give it back
I’ve never felt so wanted
Are you taking me home?

You tell me you have to go

In the heat of the summer sunshine
I miss you like nobody else
In the heat of summer sunshine
I kiss you
And nobody needs to know

Now that you’ve loved me
There’s no returning
I keep comparing
You’re always winning
I try to be strong
But you’ll never be more wanted
Will you make me a home?

Don't tell me you have to go

In the heat of the summer sunshine
I miss you like nobody else
In the heat of summer sunshine
I kiss you
And nobody needs to know

To sweet beginnings
And bitter endings
In coffee city
We borrow heaven
Don’t give it back
Winter is coming
And I need to stay warm
The heat...

In the heat of the summer sunshine
I miss you like nobody else
In the heat of summer sunshine
I kiss you
And nobody knows

In the heat of the summer sunshine
I miss you like nobody else
In the heat of summer sunshine
I kiss you
And nobody needs to know

Summer sunshine, sunshine, sunshine...

Runaway Lyrics - The Corrs - Talk On Corners, Dreams

Say it's true, there's nothing like me and you
Not alone, tell me you feel it too
And I would runaway
I would runaway, yeah
I would runaway
I would runaway with you

(Chorus)
Cause I have fallen in love
With you, no never have
I'm never gonna stop falling in love, with you

Close the door, lay down upon the floor
And by candlelight, make love to me through the night
Cause I have runaway
I have runaway, yeah
I have runaway, runaway
I have runaway with you

(Chorus)

And I would runaway
I would runaway, yeah
I would runaway
I would runaway with you

(Chorus)

So Young Lyrics - The Corrs - Talk On Corners, Dreams

We are taking it easy
Bright and breezy
We are living it up
Just fine and dandy

We are chasing the moon
Just running wild and free
We are following through
Every dream, and every need

And it really doesn’t matter that we don’t eat
And it really doesn’t matter that we don’t sleep
It really doesn’t matter, it really doesn’t matter at all

‘Cause we were so young then
We are so young, so young now
And when tomorrow comes
We’ll just do it all again

We are caught in a haze
On these lazy summer days
We’re spending all of our nights just
A-laughing and kissing, yeah

No it really doesn’t matter if we don’t sleep
No it really doesn’t matter if we don’t sleep
It really doesn’t matter at all

And it really doesn’t matter that we don’t eat
And it really doesn’t matter that we don’t sleep
It really doesn’t matter, it really doesn’t matter at all

And it really doesn’t matter that we don’t eat
And it really doesn’t matter that we don’t sleep
It really doesn’t matter, it really doesn’t matter at all

Breathless Lyrics - The Corrs - In Blue, Dreams

Go on, go on, leave me breathless
Come on...

The daylight's fading slowly
but time with you is standing still
I'm waiting for you only
The slightest touch and I'll feel weak

I cannot lie
From you I cannot hide
I'm losing the will to try
Can't hide it (can't hide it)
Can't fight it (can't fight it)
So...

Go on, go on, come on leave me breathless
Tempt me, tease me until I can't deny this
loving feeling, make me long for your kiss
Go on, go on
Yeah, come on...

And if there's no tomorrow
And all we have is here and now
I'm happy just to have you
You're all the love I need somehow

It's like a dream
Although I'm not asleep
I never want to wake up
Don't lose it (don't lose it)
Don't leave me (don't leave me)

Go on, go on, come on leave me breathless
Tempt me, tease me until I can't deny this
loving feeling, make me long for your kiss
Go on, go on
Yeah, come on...



And I can't lie
From you I cannot hide
I've lost my will to try
Can't hide it (can't hide it)
Can't fight it (can't fight it)
So...

Go on, go on, come on leave me breathless
Tempt me, tease me until I can't deny this
loving feeling, make me long for your kiss
Go on, go on
Yeah, come on...

Go on, go on, come on leave me breathless (leave me breathless)
Go on, go on, come on leave me breathless (leave me breathless)
Go on, go on, come on leave me breathless (leave me breathless)
Go on, go on

Only When I Sleep Lyrics - The Corrs - Talk On Corners, Dreams

You're only just a dreamboat
Sailing in my head
You swim my secret oceans
Of coral blue and red
Your smell is incense burning
Your touch is silken yet
It reaches through my skin
And moving from within
It clutches at my breast

But it's only when I sleep
See you in my dreams
You got me spinning round and round
Turning upside-down
But I only hear you breathe

Somewhere in my sleep
Got me spinning round and round
Turning upside-down
But its only when I sleep

And when I wake from slumber
Your shadow's disappear
Your breath is just a sea mist
Surrounding my body
I'm workin' through the daytime
But when it's time to rest
I'm lying in my bed
Listening to my breath
Falling from the edge
But it's only when I sleep

See you in my dreams
You got me spinning round and round
Turning upside-down
But I only hear you breathe

Somewhere in my sleep
Got me spinning round and round
Turning upside-down
But its only when I sleep
It's only when I sleep

Sharon instrumental

Up to the sky
Where angels fly
I'll never die
Hawaiian High
In bed I lie
No need to cry
My sleeping cry
Hawaiian High

It's reaching through my skin
Movin' from within
Clutches at my breasts
But it's only when I sleep....

See you in my dreams
You got me spinning round and round
Turning upside-down
But I only hear you breathe

Somewhere in my sleep
Got me spinning round and round
Turning upside-down
But its only when I sleep

Up to the sky
Where angels fly
I'll never die
Hawaiian High
In bed I lie
No need to cry
My sleeping cry
Hawaiian High

When The Stars Go Blue Lyrics - The Corrs featuring Bono Vox - Dreams

Dancin' where the stars go blue
Dancin' where the evening fell
Dancin' in your wooden shoes
In a wedding gown

Dancin' out on 7th street
Dancin' through the underground
Dancin' little marionette
Are you happy now?

Where do you go when you're lonely
Where do you go when you're blue
Where do you go when you're lonely
I'll follow you
When the stars go blue, blue
When the stars go blue, blue
When the stars go blue, blue
When the stars go blue

Laughing with your pretty mouth
Laughing with your broken eyes
Laughing with your lover's tongue
In a lullaby

Where do you go when you're lonely
Where do you go when you're blue
Where do you go when you're lonely
I'll follow you
When the stars go blue, blue
When the stars go blue, blue
When the stars, when the stars go blue, blue
When the stars go blue
When the stars go blue, blue, blue
Stars go blue
When the stars go blue

Where do you go when you're lonely
Where do you go when you're blue, yeah
Where do you go when you're lonely
I'll follow you, I'll follow you, I'll follow you
I'll follow you, I'll follow you, yeah
Where do you go, yeah
Where do you go, Where do you go

Radio Lyrics - The Corrs - Talk On Corners, Dreams

t's late at night, and I'm feeling down
There are couples standing on the street
Sharing summer kisses and silly sounds

So I step inside, pour a glass of wine
With a full glass and an empty heart
I search for something to occupy my mind

But you are in my head, swimming forever in my head
Tangled in my dreams, swimming forever

So, I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
And all the songs we used to know (listen to the ...)
So I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
Remember where we used to go

Now it's morning light and it's cold outside
Caught up in a distant dream
I turn and think that you are by my side

So I leave my bed and I try to dress
Wondering why my mind plays tricks
And fools me into thinking you are there (you are there)

But you're just in my head
Swimming forever in my head
Not lying in my bed
Just swimming forever

So I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
And all the songs we used to know (listen to the ...)
So I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
Remember where we used to go
I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
All the songs we used to know (listen to the ...)
I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
Remember how we used to go

(Violin Solo)

You are in my head, swimming forever in my head
Tangled in my dreams, swimming forever (swimming forever)
Swimming forever

So I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
All the songs we used to know (listen to the ...)
So I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
Remember where we used to go (listen to the ...)
I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
And all the songs we used to know (listen to the radio)
I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
To all the songs, all the songs we used to know (listen to the radio)
Yeeah, all the songs we used to know (listen to the radio, listen to the ...)
Yeeah, yeah, yeah (listen to the radio)
Yeeah, yeah, yeah (listen to the radio)

Dreams Lyrics - The Corrs - Talk On Corners, Dreams

Now here we go again
You say you want your freedom
Well who I am to keep you down
It's only right that you should
Play the way you feel it
But listen carefully to the sound
Of your loneliness
Like a heartbeat...drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had
And what you lost
And what you had
And what you lost

[Chorus]
Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
Say women they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean, you'll know

Now here I go again, I see the crystal visions
I keep my visions to myself
It's only me
Who wants to wrap around your dreams and
Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?
Dreams of loneliness
Like a heartbeat...drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had
And what you lost
What you had
And what you lost

[Chorus]
Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
Say women they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean, you'll know

Forgiven Not Forgotten Lyrics - The Corrs - Forgiven Not Forgotten, Dreams

All alone, staring on
Watching her life go by
When her days are grey
And her nights are black
Different shades of mundane
And the one-eyed furry toy that lies upon the bed
Has often heard her cry
And heard her whisper out a name long forgiven
But not forgotten

You're forgiven, not forgotten,
You're forgiven, not forgotten,
You're forgiven, not forgotten,
You're not forgotten

A bleeding heart torn apart
Left on an icy grave
In their room where they once lay
Face to face
Nothing could get in their way
But now the memories of the man are haunting her days
And the craving never fades
She's still dreaming of the man long forgiven
But not forgotten

You're forgiven, not forgotten,
You're forgiven, not forgotten,
You're forgiven, not forgotten,
You're not forgotten

Still alone, staring on
Wishing her life goodbye
As she goes searching for the man long forgiven
But not forgotten

You're forgiven, not forgotten,
You're forgiven, not forgotten,
You're forgiven, not forgotten,
You're forgiven, not forgotten,
You're forgiven, not forgotten,
You're forgiven, not forgotten,
You're forgiven, not forgotten,
You're forgiven, not forgotten,
You're not forgotten,
You're not forgotten,
No, you're not forgotten.

Goodbye Lyrics - The Corrs - Borrowed Heaven, Dreams

I never thought one day you'd be gone,
away forever more
No one can say, no one could explain
why you were taken

Oh where are you now?
Could I get there somehow?

It's time to say goodbye
Block out the sun and pack up the sky
Don't let my tears start to make you cry
Each time I try to say my goodbye
Try to stop asking why

Tell me it's true, tell me there's something more
Another time for love
One day I'll know, one day I'll be there
Will you be waiting?

Oh where are you now?

Could I get there somehow?

It's time to say goodbye
Block out the sun and pack up the sky
Don't let my tears start to make you cry
Each time I try to say my goodbye
Try to stop asking why
Try to stop asking why... yeah...

Where are you now?
Could I get there somehow?

It's time to say goodbye
Block out the sun and pack up the sky
Don't let my tears start to make you cry
Each time I try to say my goodbye
Try to stop asking why, why
Try to say my goodbye

Ideal World Lyrics - Andrea Corr - Ten Feet High

Jeannie marries when she's 21
She has a baby one year on and every year
That's the way that life goes
Lost herself in domesticity
A cleaning, feeding entity
She can't recall what she was before

In an ideal world
Kids would keep their rooms tidy
In an ideal world
He'd be home from his work on time
And in the morning I could lie in

Johnny signs his share of autographs
For all the people he makes laugh
And he walks home to an empty flat
Does his best to fight this silence
Late night TV vicodin
He can't forget what he had before

In an ideal world
She would still think I'm funny
In an ideal world
She'd be waiting in bed for me
And in the morning we could lie in
In an ideal world

Molly's sitting in a waiting room
The top doctor will see her soon
In the body nature gave her
Worried if she'll ever wake up
Wondering if she's better off
Why can't she be what she was before?

In an ideal world
He would still think I'm pretty
In an ideal world
He would only want to bed with me
And in the morning we could lie in

In an ideal world
You could make a decision
In an ideal world
You'd be making a home for me
And in the morning we could lie in
Sunday mornings we could lie in

Stupidest Girl In The World Lyrics - Andrea Corr - Ten Feet High

My life, just when it's going well I smash it all in pieces.
I'm like a magnet to the ground to everything that's creeping.

What am I doing back here,
I thought I'd finished with you,
but I'm starting again.
What am I gonna do now,
who do you really love now
getting broken again.

Your life and your covenant to lie that promise you'll be keeping, I'm sure.
I know your every gritty move, it wakes me when I'm sleeping.

What am I doing back here,
I thought I'd finished with you,
but I'm starting again.
What am I gonna do now,
who do you really love now
getting broken again.

These situations
are my own creation,
a dark fascination,
I want to be small again.

I lose concentration,
you sense my vacation,
a prime invitation,
you're getting control again.

What am I doing back here,
I thought I'd finished with you
but I'm starting again.
What am I gonna do now,
who do you really love now
getting broken again

Take Me I'm Yours Lyrics - Andrea Corr - Ten Feet High

First Live Performance of "Take Me I'm Yours" in Barcelona

I've come across the desert
To greet you with a smile
My camel looks so tired
It's hardly worth my while
To tell you of my travels
Across the golden east
I see your preparations
Invite me first to feast

Take me I'm yours
Because dreams are made of this
Forever there'll be
A heaven in your kiss

Amusing belly dancers
Distract me from my wine
Across tibetian mountains
Are memories of mine
I've stood some ghostly moments
With natives in the hills
Recorded here on paper
My chills and thrills and spills

Take me I'm yours
Because dreams are made of this
Forever there'll be
A heaven in your kiss

It's really been some welcome
You never seem to change
A grape to tempt your leisure
Romantic gestures strange
My eagle flies tomorrow
It's a game I treasure dear
To seek the helpless future
My love at last I'm here

Take me I'm yours
Because dreams are made of this
Forever there'll be
A heaven in your kiss

This Is What It's All About Lyrics - Andrea Corr - Ten Feet High

Is it any wonder
I'm higher than an angel
Our bodies, they're touching
An you've not yet woken

Your breath is like a feather
Caressing my neck
Your hands, they're whispers
Can't wait till they've spoken

Nobody told me baby
This is what it's all about
Nobody told me baby
This is what it's all about

I'm moving through the city
With my love blanket
My armour of memories
When moonlight met sunrise

I look at other people
Do they wear it too
He's given me a secret
I don't want to keep

Nobody told me baby
This is what it's all about
Nobody told me baby
This is what it's all about

24 Hours Lyrics - Andrea Corr - Ten Feet High

I see your eyes remember
You know this song
And I try to see your picture
But that's your song with somebody else
You know I love inside your head
Cos I can't be there
You're a mystery
Intrigueing me great
Your eyes grow all big instead

I'd stay awake all night
For 24 hours of your love
I'd lead a simple life
For 24 hours of your love

I'm not the only one that loves you
Hey, everyone does
You've got a map of your past engraved on your face
But your strange heart is the heart of a boy
You know I love inside your bed
And I wanna be there
You're not comfortable
You're volatile
But you sleep like
You've answered a prayer

I'd stay awake all night
For 24 hours of your love
I'd promise black was white
For 24 hours of your love
I'd believe wrong was right
For 24 hours of your love
I'd lead a simple life
For 24 hours of your love

I'd stay awake all night
For 24 hours of your love
I'd believe wrong was right
For 24 hours of your love
I'd believe wrong was right
For 24 hours of your love
I'd lead a simple life
For 24 hours of your love

Champagne From A Straw Lyrics - Andrea Corr - Ten Feet High

Midday in the underground,
there's a teenage girl selling music for her bed.
I'll be the one that you look upon
and thank your lucky stars
that you walk in your own shoes.

Clip clop past a sleeping bag
and a woolly hat
lying open on the ground.
Give money and sympathy,
hold your little girl
like you won't see her again.

Does anyone know, the places you go.

On a day like today
I drink champagne from a straw
and I get my own way,
he loves me above them all.
And there's no such thing as poor little rich girls
on a day like today.

I've got my all over tan
and my tummy tuck,
my two babies boy and girl.
Big house in the country
with expensive bags
for my scary little dog.

My man sleeps around a bit,
keeps him from my bed,
one less job for me to do.
I'm the one you look up to
and wish on every star
for one day in my high shoes.

Can anyone hear, it's hollow in here.

On a day like today
I drink champagne from a straw
and I get my own way,
he chose me above them all
And there's no such thing as poor little rich girls
in a day like today. A day like today.

A day like today. A day like today...

Can anyone hear, it's hollow in here.

On a day like today
I drink champagne from a straw
and I get my own way,
he loves me above them all
And there's no such thing as poor little rich girls
on a day like today

I drink champagne from a straw
and I get my own way,
he loves me above them all
and there's no such thing as poor little rich girls
on a day like today.

Ten Feet High Lyrics - Andrea Corr - Ten Feet High

You ask me all kinds of questions
Like I, I've got something to hide
And I don't know why this all began.

You used to love me for freedom
Said you'd climb aboard and fly
Now we're on the ground, and I'm locked in.

I don't want to lie
Sayin' it's alright
Starin' at the walls 'round our lives
And are Ten Feet High
No, I'm not dumb.

You don't need to smile
When you hurt inside
I can see the doubt in your eyes
And the fun we had is done
But I won't sit and watch you
Go cold when summer has left the room
This curtain is closing
I'm not stayin' to see the end.

We said we'd never become this
And tell each other how to live
But now I know your high times aren't with me.

We keep finding more ways
To escape you and me
Pretend you're asleep when you're lying awake

I'm not gonna lie
Say it's alright
Starin' at the walls 'round our lives
We were Ten Feet High
No, I'm not dumb.

You don't need to smile when you hurt inside
I can see the doubt in your eyes
And the sun we had is down
But I don't want to
Say it's over when I still love you
Don't say it's over when I still love you

I won't let it go cold
When summer has left the room
This curtain is closing
I'm not stayin' to see the end

I won't watch it grow old
When summer has left the room
This curtain is closing
I'm not stayin' to be the end.

Say it's over and I still love you
Say it's over and I still love you

I Do Lyrics - Andrea Corr - Ten Feet High

I want an open chariot,
black horses and shiny shoes.
An off white vintage lacy gown,
I've Juliets hand me downs.

But Romeo ain't my lover
and all that really matters is

Hey, I love you, hey I love you, love you I do

I want a dream my mothers smile
rains confetti from the sky
And dad's got a brand new poem to try,
he's sailing a lullaby.

And happily ever after
is where I'm gonna live, cause
Hey I love you. Hey I love you, love you I do.
I do. I do. I do.
Hey I love you. Hey I love you. I love you I do

Shame On You Lyrics - Andrea Corr - Ten Feet High

You left me thinking what a bore
I'm always stuck inside
I've got a feeling there is more
and I've been left behind
A lot of pain a lot of noise
That these four walls hide
Happy faces go to war.
And dance upon the mines

Come join come join come join us
You are better young come join us

Shame on you, Shame on you, Shame on you
To keep my love from me, Shame on you
Shame on you, Shame on you
To keep my love from me


You planted me in foreign ground
A pen within a hand
At least I am not on my own
In hell I have a friend
And though i fight a sinners shame
It isn't my crusade
Dirty faces in a war
Asleep in open graves

Come join come join come join us
You're better young come join us
You be a man come join come join us
You are big and strong come join us

Shame on you, Shame on you, Shame on you
To keep my love from me, Shame on you
Shame on you, Shame on you
To keep my love from me

Shame on you, Shame on you, Shame on you
To keep my love from me
Shame on you, Shame on you, Shame on you
Shame on you, Shame on you, Shame on you
To keep my love from me
Close your eyes to see it
Lock your heart to feel it
Change his name to number
But he's somebody's child

Anybody There Lyrics - Andrea Corr - Ten Feet High

I get up late
Make my way
Down the stairs
Move into the kitchen
I drink tea
Read the mail
Feel the cold
Find myself a sweater

Could there be
Anybody there
Anybody there to love me
Now you're gone
Get anybody there
Anybody there to hold me

I don't look up
I hear your voice
With a smile
Tell me I'm an asshole
Your giving up
You won't move on
And what is life
If there's no one there to share with

You say there'd be
Anybody there
Anybody there to love me
And now you're gone
Let anybody there
Anybody there to hold me

Too late at night
To go to bed
So tired and numb
I won't even miss you
Won't think of times
I fell asleep
And never dreamed of no more night to kiss you

Could there be
Anybody there
Anybody there to love me
And now you're gone
Give anybody there
Anybody there to hold me

Could there be
Anybody there
Anybody there to love me
And now you're gone
Could anybody there
Anybody there to hold me

Hello Boys Lyrics - Andrea Corr - Ten Feet High

Hello boys I know you're watching me,
I think that I like it.
I'm so tired that I can barely see,
Come find where my light is.

Now I don't want conversation,
It gets in the way.
Just use your intuition,
I'm here to play.

Hello boy, what's your name?
Hello boy, what's your name?

See me walking down the avenue,
I look like a waitress.
But I don't serve anything you've ever tasted,
I'm a plate.
Now I don't need smooth seduction.
I don't need a date.
I would take your complication,
I'll make you okay.

Hello boy, what's your name?
Hello boy, what's your name?

What do you really want?
What do you dream about?
Are you ready for?
Why do you do that?
What are you living for?
What do you dream about?
Are you ready for?
Why do you do [that]?

Hello boy, what's your name?
Hello boy, what's your name?
