Irresistible


Information:
  • A quote from the fan Q&A at the old Corrs Official web site:
    Q: What is your favorite song to perform?
    Caroline: "I like playing Irresistible. I like the rhythm of it. I like the intro with the violin, I quite like that. It's kind of upbeat. I kind of like doing the upbeat ones. For a drummer, you prefer to do things that are more upbeat, you know?"
     
  • Possibly the only Corrs song in which Sharon plays double-stops in concert (two notes at once on the violin). A good example can be seen at 0:10 in this Fleadh performance where she is fingering and bowing the lower two strings on the violin. (Thanks to Grace for that bit of trivia!)
     
  • The first line of the first verse - "Don't want you for the weekend" - is also the opening line to Shania Twain's song I'm Gonna Getcha Good! which was also co-written by Mutt Lange.
     
  • Irresistible was first performed live at Fleadh 2000.
     
  • The video for Irresistible was filmed in Times Square, New York.
     
Written By:
  • Irresistible was written by Andrea and Mutt Lange:
    A quote from Andrea on the old In Blue website: "Another one I wrote with Mutt. We started in his house then we went up into the forest with his guitar and we wrote it there. It's a love song but it's tongue in cheek. There's a bit of flattery in there! But however you want to interpret it is fine."
     


Lyrics:
You're irresistible
You're mi-ine

Don't want you for the weekend
Don't want you for a date
Don't need a love divided
Don't want to feel this way

Seeing that you need me
(The way I need you)
Just like I need you
(The way I see you)
And I want you to see me
Like no one before

You're irresistible
Natural, physical
It's indefinable
Magical, illogical
So make-you-mine-able

So cant you see I'm tortured
Oh, can't you hear my pain
If you just let me show you
I'll be your summer rain

Then you'll feel that you want me
(The way I feel it)
Just like I want you
(The way I want you)
And you'll know nothing's better
It's like nothing before

You're irresistible
Natural, physical
It's indefinable
Magical, illogical
So make-you-mine-able

[Guitar solo]

Now you feel what I'm feeling
(Don't you feel what I'm feeling)
Don't you know that it's more)
(It can take you places)
It can take you places
Like never before

You're irresistible
Natural, physical
It's indefinable
Magical, illogical
So make-you-mine-able
