Summary: Finally Here
Review: After finally receiving this DVD with region one encoding(from Amazon Canada)I am more than a little angry that it has been withheld from the North American region for so many years.I had seen a couple of performances from this album on the Best of the Corrs Videos and had wanted to see the rest of the performance. I am absolutely ecstatic. The duet with Sharon and Caroline on "No Frontier" is so much superior than on the Landsdowne DVD. I had never heard the two of them sing solo before and their voices are amaxzing and so clear and true on this DVD. Watching and hearing Andrea sing "Little Wing" and "Everybody Hurts" is a treat in itself. What I really like about this "unplugged" performance is the ability to listen and to appreciate their vast musical skills without the noise and visual distractions of the concert audience. This makes the performance intimate and very special. I think I finally have all the available Corr's DVD's now and this will probably end up my favorite.

Summary: This band is the most talented band in the world
Review: For some unknown reason, it is taking a very long time for the U.S.A to warm up to this band. There are so many clone bands out there with talent limited to looking good and decent singing. This video shows that you can look great and sing beautifully and back it up with phenomenal musical talent. These 3 beautiful sisters and their brother are The Corrs and their Irish Pop/Rock sound is possibly the most infectious sound to come along in 10 years. They have been around for 5 years or so and have sold over 15 million albums worldwide, yet they haven't been able to make a significant impact on the huge American market. If more people see this video and witness the brilliance of this band and their peerless live show, they will become as household a name as that Spears girl (ya right). And if Andrea, the lead singer, isn't the most beautiful woman in the world, then we don't need oxygen to live. Don't miss a chance to capture what they're all about with this video.

Summary: BEST DVD EVER!!!!
Review: I have never reviewed anything on Amazon, but after listening and seeing this DVD I had to change that. This is undoubtedly the BEST DVD I have ever seen and heard! I waited years for this DVD to come out with Region 1 encoding, and it was worth the wait. This is The Corrs at their best. Clear, crisp vocals with just enough instrumentation. The "No Frontiers" duet with Sharon and Caroline is wonderful! I knew they both could sing, but not this well. Andrea is incredible as always. She has to be one of the most beautiful women in the world. It's easy to tell the group enjoyed making this video. The cozy setting with the partial orchestra was a wonderful idea. I haven't figured out how the audience stayed in their seats the whole time. The instrumentals make you want to jump up and dance. This is a MUST HAVE DVD for any Corrs fan! I only wish I could have given it more than 5 stars!

Summary: Excellent - worth every star
Review: I've always liked the Corrs but this DVD really highlighted their talent (and beauty!) even more. Unplugged/acoustic music DVD's are always a measure of how much is real talent and musical proficiency. Especially with singing, there's no hiding a lack lustre performance behind sound effects and noisy crowds. Andrea's singing is spot on and the viewers are small in numbers so as she puts it, it is "intimate" giving it a different atmosphere to a concert of thousands.
I think their set list worked well to, also giving Andrea a break by having the other two sisters perform a duo.
I'd really like them to do another unplugged/acoustic set with some of their material as its been a few years now since this DVD was recorded.
The Corrs are real musicians and artists. No need for lip syncing here. If you're a Corrs fan, and can only afford one DVD, this is the one to get.

Summary: PURE BRILLIANCE! THE MOST AMAZING VIDEO MADE TO DATE!
Review: If you're a Corrs fan, this video is totally 100% for you. I'm possibly one of the biggest Corrs fans on this planet. I practically worship the four of them. I just adore them, and when I saw this video, it made me love them so much more. It is SUCH a fantastic video. The band is relaxed, they look fantastic, their performance is brilliant, and they're hilarious! Jim makes a joke about Caroline's mistake on "Runaway", Andrea shoots her big big smile every 2 minutes, and they truly look like they're having a good time. It is brilliant. Amazingly brilliant. YOU HAVE TO GET THIS VIDEO! I will tell you, it is worth every penny that you pay!

Summary: One Word: Excellent
Review: My first contact with "The Corrs" was when I saw they performing live on TV next to Pavarotti, and their beautiful voices and music left me breathless. I went to the Store and saw this video, and I thought: "If they can make a good Unplugged, they can make a good anything". I bought the video and when I put it on, I stayed completely away from reality from the beginning to the end. If you have listened to the Unplugged CD, you know what I'm talking about: great music, strong vocals, beautifull lyrics...But watching the video gives you a closer idea of what "The Corrs" do: they enjoy making music, and it goes reflected right to the screen. Plus, the video features (I think) the most beautiful songs of the group, including tracks from their first and second albums, and some songs never recorded. You get a lot of rythms whit this video: ballads, irish music, pop and rock, all of them performed with great feeling and quality, even better than their original recordings. In resume: If you already know their music, you know about the quality I'm talking about, but if you don't, this video won't let you a doubt about it.

Summary: The Best!
Review: The Corrs are the best band in the world. I love their music, and on Unplugged, they are performing at their best. Andrea's vocals are beautiful, and so is her tin whistle playing. Jim, Caroline, and Sharon are also multi-talented. This video showcases the humorous side of the band, as well as the raw talent that they have. This isn't just some band who was created by some record company, this is a family. Two of my favorite parts are when Caroline messes up "Runaway" and Jim makes a joke about it, and when Sharon and Caroline sing Heaven Knows (No Frontiers). This is definitely a video that you will want to own.

Summary: THIS VIDEO LEFT ME BREATHLESS! :)
Review: The Corrs are, I would have to say are the BEST band out there. Not only are they so very talented, nice, beautiful and charming , but they put on a great show!. I have been a hardcore fan now for about 4 years, I bought everything that had to do with the corrs. But the only thing that was missing was concert videos. I remember that they had the Royal Albert Hall concert on a local public station , but (ok slap me now) i failed to tape it. As the years went on I was desperate for corrs video's but anytime that I found anything to do with them on VHS would be in the European PAL format. Finally I found this Unplugged video at my local Tower records, I was just standing there in total Awe, this was the video i had been looking for , for so long and now it was in my hand...... anyway I dont want to write a novel :) But all I can say is that i watched this unplugged video once and I had to watch it again and again ect , Andrea makes this concert fun and her voice is beautiful , Sharons violin solo's are the most beautiful thing that I have ever heard, Caroline I would say after watching this video is one of the best drummers out there, And Jim, lets not forget Jim probably would have to be the one who works the hardest in this concert (well caroline too) But I strongly suggest that you buy this today. And even for you non corr fans buy it because you'll love them when your done. :) hope this helps ;) CORR PRIDE!! AND IRELAND PRIDE TOO!!

Summary: the lansdowne road follow-up...
Review: the unplugged show proved that the corrs had the talent to acually play their insturments in front of small crowds, not just get up and rock to 46,000 people.
this show was a very good follow-up to the massive response to the homecoming at LR, and the album was great as well. highlights include long erin shore, toss the feathers, and a beautiful redition of no frontiers from caroline and sharon. my own opinion is that little wing was a low point (i know a lot of people disagree, i just dislike like that song). but the show over all was a hit.
it is really depressing that the corrs are not very popular in the us when they should be. the us has lost a grip on what real good music is. help me spread the corrs to everyone you know, and let's have the group come to the states for tours more often!!!
