The Corrs have released seven studio albums and numerous singles that have achieved Platinum status in several countries. They have sold an estimated 40 million albums worldwide. Their most successful album, "Talk on Corners," reached multi-Platinum certification in Australia and became the highest-selling album of the year in the United Kingdom. The band is among a small number of artists who have held the top two positions simultaneously in the UK album charts, with "Talk on Corners" at number one and "Forgiven, Not Forgotten" at number two. In Australia, "Talk on Corners" was the third highest-selling album of the year. Their third studio album, "In Blue," reached number one in seventeen countries.
The Corrs have received two Grammy Award nominations and one BRIT Award, and were honored with MBEs in 2005 in recognition of their contributions to music and charitable work. They have participated in various philanthropic initiatives, including performances at The Prince's Trust event in 2004 and Live 8 in 2005.
The band was on hiatus for nearly a decade while Jim and Caroline focused on raising families and Andrea and Sharon pursued solo careers alongside family life. According to Sharon, it was uncertain whether the group would reunite. In early 2015, speculation about a reunion emerged, and in a June 2015 radio interview with Chris Evans, Andrea confirmed that the Corrs were working on a new album and would perform at that year's BBC Radio 2 Live in Hyde Park festival. Their sixth studio album, "White Light," was released on 27 November 2015 and was followed by a European tour. Their seventh studio album, "Jupiter Calling," was released on 10 November 2017.

Don't Say You Love Me
The Corrs Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've felt this all before
And every time you call
I've waited there as though you might not call at all
I know this face I'm wearing now
I've seen this in my eyes
And though it feels so great I'm still afraid
That you'll be leaving anytime
We've done this once and then you closed the door
Don't let me fall again for nothing more
Don't say you love me
Unless forever
Don't tell me you need me
If you're not gonna stay
Don't give me this feeling
I'll only believe it
Make it real or take it all away
I've caught myself smiling alone
Just thinking of your voice
And dreaming of your touch
It's all too much
You know I don't have any choice
Don't say you love me
Unless forever
Don't tell me you need me
If you're not gonna stay
Don't give me this feeling
I'll only believe it Make it real or take it all away, yeah
We've done this once and then you closed the door
Don't let me fall again for nothing more
Don't say you love me
Unless forever
Don't tell me you need me
If you're not gonna stay
Don't give me this feeling
I'll only believe it
Make it real (make it real) or take it all away
Don't tell me you need me
If you're not gonna stay
Don't give me this feeling
I'll only believe it
Make it real (make it real) or take it all away
Take it all away
Or take it all away
The Corrs' song Don't Say You Love Me is a ballad that conveys vulnerability, fear, and hope. The song talks about the fear of falling in love again after being left alone, latching onto the hope for a lasting relationship. The lyrics impose a condition on love, asking the person not to say they love someone unless they are committed to it forever. The song shows vulnerability and fear as the singer has felt the same way before, hence she waits with bated breath every time the love interest calls, but she fears being left alone once again.
The persona has seen herself wearing the same face and felt the same things in her eyes before, and the prospect of being deceived again terrifies her. The song also shows hope for a lasting connection as the singer smiles and daydreams, thinking about the love interest. The recurring refrain of "Don't say you love me unless forever" reinforces the persona's fear of being hurt again and her hope for a lasting love. The song eloquently encapsulates the tension between the fear of love and the hope of a lasting connection, making it an emotional and thought-provoking composition.
Line by Line Meaning
I've seen this place a thousand times
I am familiar with this situation as it has happened repeatedly
I've felt this all before
I recognize this feeling because I've experienced it previously
And every time you call, I've waited there as though you might not call at all
Although I anticipate your call, I am also anxious that you may not make it
I know this face I'm wearing now, I've seen this in my eyes
I am aware that my expression and mood reveal my emotions regarding this situation
And though it feels so great, I'm still afraid that you'll be leaving anytime
Although I am happy at the moment, I am still scared that you may leave me in the end
We've done this once and then you closed the door, don't let me fall again for nothing more
We have been in a similar situation before and you ended it, so please don't do that to me again
Don't say you love me unless forever
I want you to be sure about your feelings and intentions before you express them to me
Don't tell me you need me if you're not gonna stay
I don't want you to lead me on and make me believe that you'll be with me forever if you're not planning to
Don't give me this feeling, I'll only believe it
Don't create this emotion in me if you don't plan to follow through
Make it real or take it all away
Either make the relationship meaningful or end it completely
I've caught myself smiling alone, just thinking of your voice and dreaming of your touch
Your thoughts occupy my mind, and I find myself fantasizing about being with you
It's all too much, you know I don't have any choice
The intensity of my feelings for you is overwhelming, and I feel powerless to resist them
Take it all away, or take it all away
Either make this work or end it completely, I cannot bear to continue like this
