Amazon.co.uk
Having proved with an MTV Unplugged session that they are more than just a bunch of pretty faces and can actually play their instruments, Celtic-poppers the Corrs returned to the studio for their third "proper" album. Owners of Unplugged will already be familiar with two of the tracks here, "At Your Side" and "Radio," which are given the full studio treatment and endowed with a much fuller sound. Unfortunately, this is not necessarily a good thing, as the album as a whole tends to be overproduced--taking the raw folky qualities and folding them into a far more sanitized whole. As a result, the standout tracks tend to be the more up-tempo ones--"Breathless" and "No More Cry." To be fair, when the Corrs are good, they're very, very good; but when they're bad, they're just dull. Unlike their previous albums, In Blue doesn't seem to be quite so flowing. With several different producers working on it (including Mr. Shania Twain, "Mutt" Lange), maybe it was a case of too many cooks spoiling the broth. --Mel Roberts
Customer Reviews
Greatness - Reviewed on 2008-03-24
When I was younger, I used to love the Corrs. I still do, and I think their music has grown with the generations. 'In Blue' is their catchiest album and it's got the whole glitzy, glam, powerpop that makes you want to dance and sing along. Their most 'known' hits were from this album - and with good reason - this one is the most marketable, music industry wise.
Best Tracks include - "Radio", "At Your Side", "No More Cry", "Would You Be Happier", "Give Me A Reason", "Breathless" and "Iresistable".
Great pop with incredible vocal harmonies... - Reviewed on 2007-04-21
Normally my music preferences are hard rock/metal(child of the late 70's and 80's), but I really like this album. I came across it in a used bin and decided to take a chance on it because I liked the single Breathless, I'm glad I did. The Songs are simple pop songs with great melodies and the Irish influence that is mixed in definitely adds to the music. The standout feature, to me, are the vocal harmonies. Andrea Corr has a beautiful voice, and the harmonies provided by the rest of the Corrs are perfect. The production on the album was provided by Mutt Lange, so you know it's pristine in it's quality.
Song Highlights include: Breathless, Give Me A Reason, All The Love In The World, Radio, No More Cry and Rebel Heart(a cool instrumental).
This is pop music with the added bonus that the band has a great deal of musical talent, which makes it stand out(at least to me). If you like simple pop songs you will like In Blue.
