Hello, everyone.
I thought I'd give The Corrs a try - and I found out that Atlantic messed up their discography by releasing soooo many regional releases that it becomes just ... ridiculous. To me, that's incompetence at its purest.
For example, I'm looking for this Singapore release : www.corrswiki.org/Talk_on_Corners_(Album)
Even worse, I'm looking for this Japan-only album : www.corrswiki.org/Live_(Album)
It is available through Amazon Germany - but with 23 Euros as a minimum.
A few days ago I bought through ebay the "Special Edition" of "In Blue" - 2 CDs. I guess this "German release" the reason for foreign fans to be angry at Atlantic as well.
Also, I'm looking for the Spanish release of their compilation called "Dreams", because it has a bonus DVD ...
Quote from their official web site's FAQ :
Diversity of "Bonus Tracks" (compiled by me from Wikipedia) :
Now you see what I'm talking about.
What also made me go AAAAARGH was this tiny Wikipedia discussion on The Corrs:
To me, this is no discussion, but rather two weirdos mobbing a truthful man ! I'm frightened that SUCH people are allowed to act as kind of "moderators" on Wikipedia !
I sometimes can do nothing but shake my head. Such a mess !

Height
My father has personally seen the Corrs and can guarantee that Jim Corr is at least 2 inches shorter than Andrea
Your father is not an acceptable source. Unless he's a journalist and it was in an official capacity, or something. --IceflamePhoenix 11:00, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
And besides... Andrea was probably wearing high heels or something. =p --Omghgomg 07:49, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
