Say What?! comprehensive Corrs quotes collection

Does Andrea Corr really like men?
Andrea:'Of course I do! I love men.'

Would Andrea sleep with a married man?
Andrea:'No way
' Why?
Andrea: 'Because I don't sleep with men, anyway!' she says, self-consciously.

Andrea (On being gorgeous): That attractiveness, to me, has more to do with my heart and soul, not body. I'm not exactly a 'Baywatch babe'...there is no argument there! This is fact.

Andrea: You think I'm longing? Longing for love? Actually I'm longing for more sprouts!

Andrea: When I write a song with the family, the fact is that I am the 'little sister', and my Mammy is there and when it gets to something like sex you start thinking 'oh, I'm not supposed to have these thoughts about sex !!'I remember when I first wrote 'Runaway', with that silly line, 'make love to me through the night', and when I first sang it I was turning my face away, knowing my mother was going to say 'My God, where did you learn that?!' and then I'd say, 'from TV, Mammy!'

Andrea: "I, personally, don't believe that a woman who can say, 'it's the '90s, I can be like a guy, sleep with whoever and move on without giving a damn and it' can be really satisfied by that. I would love to meet someone who actually means that, from the heart. I'm sure people will disagree with me. Fine. But, ultimately, to me, sex, lovemaking is too sacred to be flippant about it. And I think most women, in their hearts, feel that way. I really do believe that."

(On being an emotional coward)
"Oh God, maybe I am! That's tragic," she reflects. "Maybe you are reading a lot more into me than I can read into myself, because you're objective. And this is provocative stuff, that will make me go off and wonder is that what I am? An emotional coward? I honestly can't answer that question, though I do often think that I am tragically romantic and maybe that means I do choose to live life through things like songs and movies, rather than first hand, lest I be broken by it all. There are so many terrible experiences to be had in life but I don't want to have them. And, no matter what you say, Doctor Joe, I still think it is great that movies are made so we can fee lit all, from the outside."

10th December 1997 Transcript-'Hot Press' Magazine Interview GETTING UNDER THE SKIN

Int: 'What really makes you go crazy?'
Sharon: 'Small things. For example, when we're in an elevator and we have to get to the fifteenth floor and Jim has pressed all fifteen buttons.....aaarrgghh!! That really drives me nuts!'
Andrea: 'Or you're about to press the button of the fifteenth floor and someone screams loud in your ear, 'I have already pressed that button, I have already pressed it!' Pffh, I get very irritated about that'

Andrea: 'Can I remember what it felt like when my breasts started to grow?. No, I'm still waiting!.'
Sharon: 'As the eldest, I was first to develop and it was awful. The other girls would try my bras on.'
Caroline: 'We were jealous because we wanted them too.'

From an article about Breast Cancer awareness 22nd July 1999

Sharon: I think we suffered from the idea of family band, Irish family band... We're not folk! Not folk, but kin!! Andrea: People do think we live in a big house together playing around the fire, with cows in the kitchen and stuff!!

Andrea: I was not meant for public transport.

Int: Who is the worst person you've ever sat next to on a plane?
Sharon: Umm...my brother.

Caroline: How do you say 'It's good to be home' in an American accent?

Sharon: I'm sure it's bizarre, but, ah, it's fun, it's great. Like dressing up and getting make up done. It's good fun.
Caroline: It sucks!

Andrea: If I never had a boyfriend in my life, I'd be saving myself for you.

Jim: Don't be afraid to dance to this!!!

Jim: Remember when you were coming down the stairs? That guy over there - see that guy there - he got a picture of you when your skirt went way up.
Sharon: Yeah, right.
Jim: I swear to God he did!

Caroline: You can only see me at this time of the morning with the glasses on.

Gerry Corr (to his kids after their Dundalk concert): Well those terrifying piano lessons have finally paid off at last. Andrea (to camera): You don't know the story of the terrifying piano lessons!!

Andrea: It's not good enough.
David: Huh?
Andrea: It's just not good enough.
D: Sorry's not good enough?
Andrea: No!
D: Oh boy.

Andrea: (after not being able to perform the American National Anthem cause of sound difficulties)'I should've handed him the mic - 'here you go fruitcake, you go on!''

The Right Time Documentary

(About them being close in ages and being thrown in the bath together when they were little)
Sharon: Yeah, unfortunately
Jim: Oh, the girls were [chuckling]
Sharon: You were in with me sometimes [referring to Jim] Oh, but we were very young.
Caroline: I'm glad Ihave no memory of this!!
Andrea: No, no I was never in the bath with Jim, ever!!

Caroline (on answering 'where in Ireland are you from?'): We're from a small town called Ire...er...(giggles)...
Jim: Ireland...a small town.

Int: We've got a studio full tonight. The Corr family is with us, that's Sharon and Andrea, Caroline and Jim. Welcome boys and girls!
All: Hi!
Int: Em, I'm amazed we squeezed you all in actually...
Andrea: Well we're small!

Andrea: 'I feel love, I was drunk and I was amorous and I couldn't understand why no one was feeling such love as I was feeling...'

Andrea (on Johnny Vaughan) ' Is he very tall? Spiky-haired? Yes, I know him! He's cute. He's very cute, he's very talented and he's cute.'

Andrea: 'The audience had been fed a lot of drink to come and see us. Sharon was walking off stage when some drunk vomited on her. That was pretty humiliating,'

Andrea: 'At the beginning I might have thought I wanted to express myself a little bit more and then, thought, 'Oh my God, there's my brother!''

Andrea:'I wouldn't be on a night out with Oasis. If I was I'd tell them to lose their attitude. It's much too boring.'

Andrea (on future plans): To remain intact and happy. And ultimately to fall in love and have babies. Just like everybody else, really.'
