A quartet comprising sisters Andrea, Caroline, Sharon, and brother Jim, The Corrs popuarlity in the U.S. blossomed in the mid-90's and has thrived throughout a string of acclaimed releases. On Home, their latest album, The Corrs return to their roots-and their family legacy-with a selection of tunes lifted out of a treasured sonbook of the late Jean Corr. Driven by the siblings' passion to shed new light on traditional songs and airs, this radiant collection features the crystal clear production and brilliant harmonies for which the band is renowned. It also presents two tracks in Gaelic, marking the first time The Corrs have recorded in their mother tongue. desertcart.com 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. --Christina Roden Review: What's not to like . . . - I am a semi-fan of the Corrs. I love their sound, their energy, their style in performance (I've only seen the Royal Albert Hall dvd). I am semi- only because I think some of their songs are silly, but even the silly ones are done so well that I can't help stopping to listen. I am also a Celtic music fan, so I had to get this CD if only for curiosity's sake. This pop group is going to do traditional Irish? I was sort of expecting to be disappointed. I wondered is the lead singer of "Runaway," "Forgiven Not Forgotten," and "Dreams" going to warp "Peggy Gordon" and "Brid Og Ni Mhaille"??? What is Sharon Corr going to sound like solo? And is Caroline Corr going to "over-drive" the rhythm with her drumming (I really enjoyed her zest and obvious joy in the Royal Albert Hall performance, but in Buachaill On Eirne)? I kind of thought Jim Corr would do just fine. He seems to be able to play anything. After listening to the CD for the third time, I wonder if people are going to realize what a wonder this collecton is. Except in one or two places (notably the orchestral background and electronic instrumentation with "Black is the Color"), they've modulated their pop sound and nicely melded it with the traditional material. Or they've done the song in a traditional manner, and it comes out just gorgeous (I am thinking of "Brid Og Ni Mhaille" and "Haste to the Wedding"). Sharon's solo is simply . . . right--as if the song had been written for her. The vocal backups and bodhran-ning (is there such a word?) were just fine. I'm trying to imagine which American pop group could pull off something like this. I even liked the redone modern songs, like "Heart Like a Wheel," which I never really cared for in its original version. Unlike many CD's I've purchased, where after a few times I end up listening to three to five songs, I enjoy every "Home" track. I don't have to program my CD player to skip over tracks, I just have to decide which ones I want to repeat because I like them best. Review: CORRS REUNION! - The Corrs Reunion 2015 Is Happening; New Album Confirmed! Back after being out of the spot light for numerous years, the band is reported to be performing on Sept. 13 at Hyde Park during the BBC Radio 2 Live event. According to RTE, the band is also set to release a brand new album following their reunion performance. The news about the new album has been confirmed after lead singer Andrea Corr talked about it on air. The source cited above published a transcription of an interview that some of the members attended with Chris Evans on his BBC radio 2 show. "We're in the process of making a new record, so it feels just right to do this," she said. "It's exciting." "We emerged after our lives going in different directions - babies and all that," the lead singer added. As to the details of the upcoming album, like whether they will be going a different genre this time around, we have yet to find out as news about such has yet to be updated on. The Corrs reunion 2015 is an event that would be highly anticipated by fans, as it is known that the band has been responsible for numerous hit songs during the late 90's until early 00's including "Breathless," "All the Love in the World," "Runaway," "What Can I Do" and "Summer Sunshine." Just wanted to share this exciting news while listening to this great CD! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000CPH9I4 | | Best Sellers Rank | #126,935 in CDs & Vinyl ( See Top 100 in CDs & Vinyl ) #202 in Celtic New Age (CDs & Vinyl) #378 in Irish Music #1,184 in British Music | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (245) | | Date First Available | January 28, 2007 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item model number | Home | | Label | Rhino Records | | Manufacturer | Rhino Records | | Number of discs | 1 | | Original Release Date | 2006 | | Product Dimensions | 4.88 x 5.59 x 0.51 inches; 3.25 ounces | ## Images ![Home - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81xZVT6fr3L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What's not to like . . . *by E***R on November 8, 2005* I am a semi-fan of the Corrs.

Just wanted to share this exciting news while listening to this great CD! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Finally the Corrs album I've been waiting for! *by D***N on August 11, 2009* So with the very first Corrs album I bought, I was impressed by their Irish folksy sound on many tracks, and to this day, "Erin Shore" remains my favorite instrumental number of all time. Since that time, I have longed for some more "inspired" arrangements of traditional Irish songs, and who better to present it than the group that got me into it in the first place. To be honest, some of their albums in the past have let me down a little, but I've always enjoyed their sound, so I didn't really know what to expect with this one, but now, I have to say, if I ever want to transport myself to the green hills of Ireland, I just need to give this album a listen. I still find myself toe-tapping and singing along, and sometimes I even forget I'm singing traditional Irish tunes, but either way, I love it. There are some slower songs, and perhaps some that won't stick with me as much as others, just like any album, but I've also found those that stick with me days after listening, and I find myself humming in the morning when I wake up without even realizing it. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.ke/products/25471876-home](https://www.desertcart.co.ke/products/25471876-home) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kenya* *Store origin: KE* *Last updated: 2026-04-30*
