"In Blue Special Edition is one of my fave album by The Corrs. This album, which is The Corrs recent album, was debuted at #1 on the U.K. chart. They were also one of the nominees in the recent Grammy and British Awards. Jim, Sharon, Caroline and Andrea grew up in Dundalk, Ireland. The Irish siblings were brought up with music since they were still small.The original In Blue was released last year and this album is their special edition with bonus tracks including a few acoustic remixes, live records and two new songs-"Love in the Milky Way" and "Looking in the eyes of Love".Though the pop "Breathless" and "Irresistible" are the hits, other tracks are brilliant too. "Somebody for Someone"-a romantic story about a girl who wants love because she believes that there is a somebody for everyone in the world, while the instrumental is "Rebel Heart" plus a live recorded "Haste to the Wedding"They also have a fast tempo "No More Cry" and two new songs. "Love in the Milky Way" which had been added a little bit of rock into it. It is one of my favorite and you can feel as though you are in outer-space. Anyway, "Looking in the eyes of Love" is a very romantic love ballad.Previously released in Unplugged-"Radio" and "At Your Side; and Talk on Corners-"So Young(live)" are included too. Personally, to me, "So Young" and "At Your Side" are their best previous songs. The new hit "Give Me A Reason" is included.Overall, this album by The Corrs has various types of music(pop, instrumental etc.) with Irish tunes and meanings not only on love, but also life.Most of the lyrics are written by them and, of course, they play the music too. A great effort of making musics which are very hard to find nowadays.The new special edition is worth a buy than the original one as the bonus tracks features must-hear tunes and the two new songs are also great. Plus, the cover album has a nice, sharp graphic.A must-buy album for everyone!"
One of the best!!

"'Breathless' was the first Corr's song I ever heard, and it was enough to buy the whole set for it alone. I love it, and it shall forever remain one of my favorites.
The rest of the album is typical (terrific) Corrs fare.
'Irrisistable' is another favorite, as is 'Give it all up'. And of course, as any Corrs fan would know, 'Radio'. The second CD, (a 2-disk set) is less good,
with some overly sappish songs, though they still sound pretty good. Looking for some catchy, romantic, light-hearted pop? Look no further, In Blue is for you."
