The sibling group performed at St. Anne's Park for the first time ever, with supporting acts Natalie Imbruglia and Imelda May
90s pop legends The Corrs delivered a heartfelt show at St Anne's Park in Dublin on Sunday night, June 8.
As the first drum kicks of Natalie Imbruglia's 'What It Feels Like' sounded through the air, a group of seagulls seated above the massive stage startled and took off, soaring over the cheering crowd. The singer gave her all, performing timeless classics like 'Shiver' and 'Torn', which had everyone singing along.

Leaving the audience on a high, Imbruglia thanked her fans and the Corrs after roughly 35 minutes of top-notch entertainment from the supporting act.

After a short pause, Imelda May made her way on stage, wearing a golden leopard print mini dress, and bristling with energy. May brought the energy, seducing the crowd with her sultry voice and earning a couple of laughs for her poem 'Scaldy Kid'.
She knew how to tease and enthral listeners, and around the time the singer brought out her bodhrán, everyone lost it completely. Chanting, screaming, whistling – she had us in her pocket.

May remembered a time when she was opening for Bruce Springsteen, who asked her what the crowd was like. "I told him I lubricated them for you," she laughed into the microphone.
Ending her set with a cover of Soft Cell's 'Tainted Love', I think it is fair to say the audience was properly lubricated for the main attraction of the night.
After two powerhouse support acts, fans welcomed the beloved Corrs, screaming loudly, as the Dundalk siblings finally came on stage. It was their first time performing at St Anne's Park, and lead singer Andrea animated everyone, saying, "Let's make this epic!"

Together with her sisters Sharon and Caroline and brother Jim, the group started off strong with 'Only When I Sleep'. Booming drums and sizzling guitar chords carried over jumping bodies, blending with outstanding vocals, setting the tone for an unforgettable evening.
Andrea's energy was unmatched; she kept twirling around in her black sparkly dress, smiling and jumping across the stage, all while hitting every note and not breaking a sweat.
As daylight slowly faded, the quartet delivered one chart-topper after another, with crowd-pleasers like 'What Can I Do', 'Summer Sunshine' and 'Radio'.
Listeners were enjoying every second of nostalgia, swaying to these classic hits, waving their arms to the beat, and shining their flashlights. 'Joy of Life' had people linking arms, spinning around in circles, crying out merrily, while others clapped with raised arms to the catchy tune.

Andrea remarked between songs that "sometimes it can feel like there is so much hate all around. But there is only love here tonight!", earning approving claps and whistles from fans.
Nearing the end of their show, the crowd erupted in cheers when Sharon began playing the first notes of 'Runaway' on her violin. As Andrea meant to start singing, the voices of everyone in the audience joined together, singing every word of the fan favourite.
The drums and violin accompanied the crowd chanting the entirety of the first verse and chorus. In this moment of magic unity, Andrea touched her chest, fell to her knees, smiled at her fans and held up her hands to form a heart.

Joining in on the second verse, the lead singer joined her loyal supporters, finishing the song together. Roaring applause followed, and there was a spark in the air when the Corrs thanked Dublin, bowed and left the stage waving.

But nobody before the stage moved. Everybody wanted more - they did not want this mystical moment to end. So the group came out once more, indulging us in one more show-stopper.
'Breathless' took the crowd even higher, making the intimate relationship between the band and their fanbase apparent. The track was a worthy finale to a marvellous evening, leaving the audience breathless.
