SteveW - Here's another video of the Sopot gig with So Young and TTF 16-Jun-2019 02:50:23

Jerry - Corrvatars? 13-Jun-2019 03:16:10

nightcat - If our Fab Four still can't tour/play live anytime soon, they could consider this 😅😂 24-Jun-2019 17:31:26

SteveW - Technical difficulties in a Breathless performance 04-Jun-2019 08:32:57

dave - I understand the need for a backing track 'safety net', especially at arena & stadium gigs. 04-Jun-2019 16:02:02

SteveW - Spontaneity of live performances 04-Jun-2019 16:33:37

dave - Sharon's gigs with Vonda Shepherd were brilliant. Apart from both women's voices 04-Jun-2019 19:44:35

Wendy - Did Sharon sing any songs from Jupiter's Calling? 12-Jun-2019 12:31:06

Wendy - There's definitely a backing track on that Long Night performance... 12-Jun-2019 12:25:28

Wendy - Agreed, I like it when The Corrs aren't playing with a backing track... 12-Jun-2019 12:22:21

SteveW - That's a great live acoustic performance of FNF 13-Jun-2019 11:08:23

Wendy - Yes I LOVE that live version of FNF on The Late Late show! 15-Jun-2019 12:49:35

Wendy - Breathless at Hyde Park - that's terrible that the backing track was out! 12-Jun-2019 12:19:36

Wendy - Sorry about my excessive messaging...I could have put that in one post! 12-Jun-2019 12:37:23

SteveW - I'm happy to see any activity on the board, whether it's in one post or five :-) 12-Jun-2019 13:17:57

SteveW - Breathless at Hyde Park 12-Jun-2019 14:04:22

Wendy - Hyde Park 13-Jun-2019 04:56:38

SteveW - I thought Andrea looked a bit nervous at the beginning of the Hyde Park gig 13-Jun-2019 11:02:10

Wendy - Foldback 13-Jun-2019 13:31:39

SteveW - How I discovered the Corrs 15-Jun-2019 05:18:59

Wendy - Breathless / Dixie Chicks 15-Jun-2019 07:50:37

SteveW - Dixie Chicks 03-Jul-2019 00:04:04

Wendy - Glad you found the songs pleasant! 25-Jul-2019 07:40:05

Corranga - ..continuing the Neil Finn (from Crowded House) fun fact / tenuous links... 22-Jul-2019 15:49:24

SteveW - I don't think anyone mentioned that Mitchell Froom also produced Sharon's The Same Sun 22-Jul-2019 16:26:44

Corranga - Mitchell’s studio is at their home, Sharon told anecdotes of Vonda’s cooking smelling great as she walked 22-Jul-2019 19:33:32

Corranga - Just remembered another one, Neil Finn is now a member of (or at least is playing with) Fleetwood Mac 23-Jul-2019 13:53:08

Wendy - That's quite a circle! 25-Jul-2019 07:40:26

Corranga - I'm not aware of foldback being a British term, I'm no music expert, but I'd say monitor too :) (perhaps feedback?) 22-Jul-2019 15:42:10

Wendy - Wikipedia said foldback is a British term... 27-Jul-2019 03:13:20

Terry2 - Monitoring foldback 27-Jul-2019 10:25:54

SteveW - The Corrs meet Def Leppard 02-Jun-2019 11:24:43

Corranga - As a big fan of Def Leppard... I love it! It works really well. I would also love to see Leppard 03-Jun-2019 16:06:54

SteveW - Taylor Swift and Joe Elliott 03-Jun-2019 16:53:20

Corranga - Just watched the whole thing, it's really good. It shouldn't work, but it does. 03-Jun-2019 20:57:50

dave - Interesting that in a recent Instagram post Andrea is pictured with Caroline Henry, 18-May-2019 21:22:42

MentariS - Happy birthday, Andrea—wish you all the greatest in the world, and we can’t wait for the memoir! 17-May-2019 00:43:49

nightcat - If you ever get to read this, Happy Birthday Andrea!! Sending all the love in the world to you and your family 17-May-2019 06:26:49

AB_CLOSER - Happy Birthday have a great day!!! Love from Spain. 17-May-2019 10:07:00

Robin - Happy Birthday Andrea hope you having great day. 17-May-2019 21:01:38

dave - Irish television station RTE will be broadcasting their Late Late Show from London tomorrow 16-May-2019 20:05:19

CorrMac - Sadly, this seems unlikely, ... 17-May-2019 12:10:32

dave - Yes, I'm expecting her to be on some chat shows or breakfast TV for the book launch. 17-May-2019 19:31:37

SteveW - Long Night rough instrumental track 16-May-2019 09:56:44

SteveW - Long Night backing vocal guide track 15-May-2019 13:29:06

nightcat - thanks for this Steve! I'll see what I can do. *fingers crossed* 17-May-2019 06:27:56

MentariS - Andrea’s memoir to be published by HarperCollins later this year 15-May-2019 11:06:26

SteveW - I would love to read this 15-May-2019 11:49:32

Corranga - Oh, this is a surprise. I'll buy it and probably not read it ;) 15-May-2019 12:50:43

MentariS - I hope whoever edits/ghostwrites it does her story justice! 15-May-2019 13:24:16

SteveW - I wonder if she would write it herself 15-May-2019 13:34:07

dave - I would imagine Andrea wrote it herself, that's very much her way of doing things. 15-May-2019 16:14:09

MentariS - Yep, I'm also leaning towards Andrea's own personal story 16-May-2019 12:25:16

SteveW - Given that the book is supposed to be coming out in October... 16-May-2019 13:03:59

MentariS - Articles about Barefoot Pilgrimage on The Irish Independent and RTÉ: 16-May-2019 00:54:00

nightcat - I'm also surprised by this in a good way. Personally I hope Andrea wrote all of it and is working with a good editor 17-May-2019 06:33:03

Robin - Sort of Corrs related. In Scotland last sat to see amazing Rebecca Connelly gig. She has just written a new album but 15-May-2019 00:11:45

Den - I see Caroline's on hols near Monaco 14-May-2019 00:00:40

dave - Laura Cox Band is looking for a lighting technician, to be Paris based. Approx 60 gigs a year. 29-Apr-2019 20:34:24

SteveW - Long Night -- instructions 27-Apr-2019 04:26:31

Wendy - Happy to let someone else play tin whistle if they want! 27-Apr-2019 06:49:48

nightcat - I'm willing to chip in my average but workable backing vocal for this but I'm gonna need a guide first 27-Apr-2019 07:16:19

SteveW - nightcat, could you go ahead and send me an email anyway? Thanks! 28-Apr-2019 02:32:31

nightcat - I don't think I remember your email SteveW, mind sending it to me via Twitter? 28-Apr-2019 10:27:28

Corranga - Email sent. Dropbox, or perhaps even google drive can be used to share larger files if needed 27-Apr-2019 20:19:52

SteveW - Give it your best shot, no pressure :-) 28-Apr-2019 02:34:06

SteveW - Long Night guide track 28-Apr-2019 10:17:16

SteveW - Tricky rhythm in Long Night 30-Apr-2019 00:15:31

dave - Sharon's Live In San Paulo DVD is available again - go to her Facebook page for details. 24-Apr-2019 20:25:42

dave - ...and on Twitter. 25-Apr-2019 11:27:50

SteveW - quick Long Night verse mock-up 24-Apr-2019 19:56:48

Wendy - Wow, sounds great Steve! 25-Apr-2019 03:00:31

SteveW - Yeah, the timing might be a bit off 25-Apr-2019 04:12:42

nightcat - Long Night is one of my fave Corrs songs, got chills when I heard it for the first time. 25-Apr-2019 05:30:03

Wendy - Authenticity 25-Apr-2019 06:03:34

SteveW - Another problem with too much quantizing... 25-Apr-2019 07:54:24

StPaddy - I am. :) 26-Apr-2019 07:22:55

SteveW - Glad you're still around, Michael! 26-Apr-2019 10:43:37

StPaddy - In general, are we looking for a 1 to 1 rendition of each instrument´s track... 27-Apr-2019 11:20:24

SteveW - IMO, we should feel free to add our own personal expression 27-Apr-2019 12:25:17

Terry2 - Expression 27-Apr-2019 19:59:57

BallerinaTay - Very good work Steve! 25-Apr-2019 06:00:58

SteveW - quick mock-up of Long Night with 2 verses and 2 choruses, in different keys 26-Apr-2019 01:02:03

BallerinaTay - This is awesome! 26-Apr-2019 04:08:39

Wendy - Sounds good. Changing the key may complicate it for tin whistlers... 26-Apr-2019 05:52:58

BallerinaTay - And if that is the case we can keep it in it’s original key. 26-Apr-2019 14:24:15

SteveW - Transposing keys 26-Apr-2019 18:10:17

Terry2 - Keys 26-Apr-2019 22:31:52

SteveW - Technology to the rescue 27-Apr-2019 01:46:13

Wendy - Yeah, use tech - unless someone has an E flat whistle 27-Apr-2019 02:41:26

Arikorr - E flat whistle 27-Apr-2019 10:04:58

Wendy - Excellent! 27-Apr-2019 14:56:02

SteveW - Keyboard parts 27-Apr-2019 15:43:48

SteveW - Harmony - instrumental version 23-Apr-2019 10:57:25

Wendy - Thanks Steve for expertly working out the keys! 23-Apr-2019 11:55:56

SteveW - Long Night -- another Corrs Club cover? 20-Apr-2019 02:47:12

Wendy - Long Night sounds like it features a lot of guitar 20-Apr-2019 05:12:21

Wendy - Or even just tin whistle if many others wanted to do backing vocals 20-Apr-2019 05:13:44

Wendy - Or, not tin whistle if someone else wants to do that. 20-Apr-2019 05:18:22

SteveW - It does sound like there is a lot of heavily effected guitar 20-Apr-2019 05:26:30

Wendy - Ha, a massed vocal version would sound great, but so much work, like you said! 20-Apr-2019 09:46:58

Corranga - As below, I'd quite like to try something out, though I don't want to be more of a burden... 20-Apr-2019 09:34:33

SteveW - I think it's worth a shot! 20-Apr-2019 10:01:18

Wendy - It may not take as long for others... 20-Apr-2019 10:49:39

SteveW - Yes, now we know we can make this work 20-Apr-2019 11:10:47

Wendy - Yeah, and that last 10% is tricky because it no longer feels 'fresh' 20-Apr-2019 11:18:46

SteveW - By the way, just to be clear... 20-Apr-2019 11:33:39

Wendy - I freaked out a little seeing it took almost 2 years - I didn't realise it had been that long! 20-Apr-2019 11:46:09

SteveW - Scheduling 20-Apr-2019 12:02:18

nightcat - For me at least, the deadline for me worked because I'm sometimes quite a procrastinator😅😂 20-Apr-2019 12:40:19

Arikorr - Sounds like a great idea!! 20-Apr-2019 10:02:23

SteveW - A couple of Long NIght cover versions 20-Apr-2019 12:26:38

BallerinaTay - I’m really excited you all would like to give it a try! 20-Apr-2019 18:00:38

SteveW - OK, let's go for it! 21-Apr-2019 03:43:58

SteveW - Long Night tempo 21-Apr-2019 11:18:36

BallerinaTay - I may play with it so see about transposing it up just a bit. 21-Apr-2019 22:19:36

SteveW - OK, let us know what works best for you 22-Apr-2019 01:16:44

SeanCorrain - I'm in ! 23-Apr-2019 02:30:38

SteveW - Sean, what do you play? (or sing?) 23-Apr-2019 02:55:24

Fran_SS - I could handle the mixing of the track :) 23-Apr-2019 16:51:36

SteveW - Fran, it would be great if you could do the production/mixing! 24-Apr-2019 12:14:24

GaelleF - I don't mind singing again, don't know if I'd have time to take out my tin whistle ! 24-Apr-2019 15:45:22

Fran_SS - Sure I can give it a try Steve ;) Maybe it's a huge task I'm underestimating, but... 25-Apr-2019 11:57:49

SteveW - One thing I had problems with when I was trying to do preliminary mixes of Harmony... 25-Apr-2019 12:03:31

Fran_SS - Yes, I know what you mean. That's due to the recording technique and the range of frecuencies of the different sounds 25-Apr-2019 12:52:20

Wendy - Releasing: HARMONY - a worldwide Corrs Club collaboration! 19-Apr-2019 04:59:37

BallerinaTay - Okay, this is REALLY cool!! 19-Apr-2019 05:17:04

Wendy - Woohoo! Glad you like it BallerinaTay! 19-Apr-2019 05:28:12

nightcat - Wow this turned out GOOD, considering our resources 😍 19-Apr-2019 06:39:26

BallerinaTay - It turned out great! I’d be honored to sing the next one! You all just say the word! 19-Apr-2019 15:23:56

SteveW - What song would you want to sing? 19-Apr-2019 19:27:59

BallerinaTay - To be very honest I’m open to whatever. 20-Apr-2019 01:20:06

MentariS - Well done everyone! This is SO good--hope Andrea, Caroline, Jim, and Sharon will get to listen to it!! 19-Apr-2019 08:48:16

Robin - Absolutely brilliant, love it. Well done to you all, amazing vocals Wendy. The Corrs will love it. 19-Apr-2019 10:38:29

Wendy - Thanks so much Robin! 20-Apr-2019 02:26:52

SteveW - Thanks to all who contributed -- this turned out way better than I had expected 19-Apr-2019 10:28:13

Wendy - Yes, thanks everyone for your contributions and patience! 19-Apr-2019 10:45:38

Wendy - Wrote a long blog post about how we did it... 19-Apr-2019 10:46:45

SteveW - Enjoyed the blog post; you captured the process perfectly. 19-Apr-2019 11:08:53

Corranga - Wow, well done to all involved, this is fantastic, such a beautiful version, I'm really impressed! 19-Apr-2019 11:27:33

nightcat - Who knows Chris, maybe you can join in next time 😂 19-Apr-2019 12:17:52

Wendy - What do you play/sing? Perhaps you can do the next one! 19-Apr-2019 12:47:02

Corranga - haha, yes, that's part of the problem ;) 20-Apr-2019 09:24:24

Wendy - Yeah, I blog to have an account of projects so I also don't forget! 19-Apr-2019 12:51:49

nightcat - It's a bit long but I also enjoyed reading the blogpost Wendy 19-Apr-2019 12:23:20

Wendy - Ha, yes I did warn you it was long. May have to edit it! 19-Apr-2019 12:45:58

nightcat - No need to edit it Wendy if you ask me 19-Apr-2019 13:39:17

Wendy - OK cool - true, if we do it again we might need to refer back to the notes! 19-Apr-2019 13:44:43

Fran_SS - Well, that was something! Congrats guys 19-Apr-2019 11:38:50

MentariS - I might just add, the release couldn't be more fitting considering what's going on in Northern Ireland at the moment... 19-Apr-2019 15:05:28

Wendy - Terry had the smart idea to release it on Good Friday, but obviously I didn't expect there to be riots last night 19-Apr-2019 15:20:02

Mark - It's very good! And you have a very pretty voice. :) 19-Apr-2019 17:06:53

Wendy - Hey thanks Mark! It literally took hundreds of takes to sound okay :) 20-Apr-2019 02:24:35

Arikorr - Wow!! Very well done!! 19-Apr-2019 20:58:12

Wendy - Thanks Arikorr! Yes, I liked that we had lots of our different voices in the end section! 20-Apr-2019 02:26:33

Leslie - Well done!! 20-Apr-2019 01:28:45

Punky - This project is impressive in so many ways! Bravo! 20-Apr-2019 04:20:49

OsamaRaashid - This is amazing! Great job everyone. Looking forward to the next one 20-Apr-2019 11:02:22

AB_CLOSER - WOW!!! Thanks. 20-Apr-2019 23:04:17

RichardY - Only just had a chance to listen to this. Love it! Well done to everyone involved! 24-Apr-2019 12:09:09

SteveW - Coming soon... watch this space 15-Apr-2019 12:08:04

nightcat - looking forward to this 👀 17-Apr-2019 00:19:39

MentariS - Can't wait... 18-Apr-2019 04:39:04

SteveW - Just one more day... 18-Apr-2019 09:26:19
