Lifting me I don't know how you do it but it's lifting me
Another day another way
He finds a point to pressure me
A silly girl with silly ways
I hear this I'm pitiful
I'll be that girl can
You give me the strength to be free
Lifting me I don't know how you do it but it's lifting me
Keep lifting me I don't know how you do it but it's lifting me, yeah
Another night another fight
He finds a point to criticise
A frilly dress and frilly ways
I hear this so pitiful
I'll be that girl can you give me the strength to be free
Lifting me I don't know how you do it but it's lifting me
Keep lifting me I don't know how you do it but it's lifting me, yeah
Lifting me I don't know how you do it but it's lifting me
Keep lifting me I don't know how you do it but it's lifting me, yeah
I'll be that girl can
you give me the strength to be free
Lifting me I don't know how you do it but it's lifting me
Keep lifting me I don't know how you do it but it's lifting me
You're lifting me I don't know how you do it but it's lifting me
Keep lifting me I don't know how you do it but it's lifting me...
Traduction (Me soulever) :
Soulèves-moi, Je ne sais pas comment tu le fais
Mais ça me soulève
Un autre jour une autre manière
Il trouve un moment pour me mettre la pression
Une fille idiote avec des manières idiotes
J'entends cela je suis pitoyable
Je pourrais être cette fille peut tu me donner
La force d'être libre
Soulèves-moi, Je ne sais pas comment tu le fais
Mais ça me soulève
Soulèves-moi, Je ne sais pas comment tu le fais
Mais ça me soulève, ouais
Une autre nuit un autre combat
Il trouve un moment pour critiquer
Une robe froissée et des manières J'entends cela si pitoyable
Je pourrais être cette fille peut tu me donner
La force d'être libre
Soulèves-moi, Je ne sais pas comment tu le fais
Mais ça me soulève
Soulèves-moi, Je ne sais pas comment tu le fais
Mais ça me soulève, ouahs
Soulèves-moi, Je ne sais pas comment tu le fais
Mais ça me soulève
Soulèves-moi, Je ne sais pas comment tu le fais
Mais ça me soulève, ouais
Je pourrais être cette fille peut tu me donner
La force d'être libre

Mais ça me soulève
Soulèves-moi, Je ne sais pas comment tu le fais
Mais ça me soulève
Tu me soulèves-moi, Je ne sais pas comment tu le fais
Mais ça me soulève
Soulèves-moi, Je ne sais pas comment tu le fais
Mais ça me soulève...
Interview :
Questions to The
Corrs :
Interviewer: The Corrs Talk On Corners was one of last years biggest selling albums, and 1999 looks likely to be yet another amazing year for the Irish family foursome. With not only a World Tour but a new album as well, I caught up with them in rehearsals. Now you're all looking forward to record your new
album ?
Jim: Ehh... yeah. We really look forward to doing the third album. We've had an absolutely fantastic tour of the UK and Ireland and looking forward to getting writing again and that'll probably happen early spring I'd say.
Interviewer: So, do you have a title for the new album yet ?
Caroline: We have no idea, at all what we're going to be doing, for you know, as yet. But, I mean, we've got some ideas, but nothing concrete really, no ideas for names or songs or anything yet.
Interviewer: So tell me, when you're recording a new album, does the location actually
matter ?
Andrea: Hmm... well I think, from our past history it's kind of obvious that it doesn't really matter, the location of where we record. Ehmm... but having said that, I think we really hope to record this album in Ireland, because it's home, you know. I mean, we've had great times in all the different studios that we were in in Los Angeles on the last two albums, so...
Interviewer: Does recording get easier with time ?
Sharon: It does get easier with time, I think you become... ehh... more confident on your individual instrument and your individual role in the band, and you're not so uptied or inhibited if you've got this huge producer working with you, you know people who are well-established with you, 'cause you're quite well-established yourself,
so... it is, it's much more a fun process nowadays. I think when we were younger it was quite frightening really to start with.
Interviewer: Now your mega success hasn't come over night, I mean you've been touring for several years. Are there any favourite places that you'd like to go back to
again ?
Caroline: Ehh... I think Australia was a big memory for us 'cause it was the first place that the record took off, so, we've been there about three or four times already, but we've always wanted to go back to Australia... ehh, and we love Spain as well. Spain's a big one for us. It's just so beautiful... ehh...
Sharon: There's a lot of cities that are really good, like Madrid and Barcelona and London's also great for going out, you know, there's a great vibe in the city, very vibrant, and New York is fantastic too.
Jim: It's great that we never actually...we're never in any place long enough to like tire of it... you know... which is great. We're just constantly moving and seeing the best of it's city, it's fun.
Questions to Caroline :
Interviewer: And finally for some individual questions, Caroline let's start with you. You're the drummer of the band, at what age did you actually start playing the
drums ?
Caroline: I actually started when I was about... I think I was 17 or 18 when I actually started, so it was quite late coming into the drums, 'cause I originally played piano in the band, which was like the very beginning. Eehh... but a boyfriend of mine at the time had a drumkit and he played, and he was a med fan of U2 I remember at the time and Larry Mullen...he was a huge fan of him. So, he sort of showed me a few basic beats and I just got into it, and then we just decided to incorporate it into the band. And from then on I became the drummer, and it was hard work to begin with, but it's where I'm most comfortable on stage.
Interviewer: Do you think it actually makes a difference that you are a female
drummer... ? 'cause there aren't many around.
Caroline: Ehh... yeah, I mean, there is a few female drummers, but there isn't enough it seems. It seems mych more of a male thing to do. I don't really know why that is... you know. I suppose it is a little bit strange, and I think when we used to first tour I used to see enough of people in the audience sort of look at me and go: "Wow, she's playing the drums, she's really
playing !", and I mean... yeah. But, it's... it is a little bit strange but I mean, it's a brilliant thing, I think there should be more girls playing because... It's not difficult you know, it's just something you just practise, like any instrument you know.
Interviewer: What was it like when you were performing with the Rolling
Stones ?
Caroline: Performing with the Rolling Stones was amazing. We did three gigs with them: Mannheim, Berlin and Prag... and for us it was just seeing them on stage. You know, forget us doing our gig or whatever like that, we just... You know, we wanted to see them perform and I have to say that they're a band that would put any young band to shame, with the type of performance they put on. And, it was just, you know, they're the biggest band in the world, so it was just a huge thing for us.
Questions to Sharon :
Interviewer: And Sharon, moving on to your questions. What is the best aspect of working with your
family ?
Sharon: Good question! Ehh... well I think there's a great sence of teamwork and there's a great sence of toghetherness with your family. Ehh... we work very well together, it could go a different way, I mean... I think a lot of families don't get on, we happen to get on, so it works great and... I think we are... we've been exposed to the same music from a very young age so we have similar taste musically, so that makes it easier to write songs.
Interviewer: So how long have you actually been playing the violin for ?
Sharon: I started playing the violin when I was six and a half. And what actually happened was there was a violin teacher that was new in our town, and he was starting pupils off at the age of three, so they tried Caroline out first, 'cause she was three. But she was much more interested in the fact that he had big ears and red hair and freckles. So she wasn't... she couldn't keep her concentration so I got sent to the lessons and I just kept it on for years, and I'm still playing it in the band.
Interviewer: And when it comes and it's all over I mean, how do you wind down and actually
relax ?
Sharon: Well, it takes a while to wind down after a concert, 'cause you're just so full of adrenalin. Ehh... I dunno, sometimes it's nice to have a glass of wine or whatever after the show, and sometimes we go out, but very often we're usually working early the next day or we have a show the next day, so you can't afford really to party. But I think it takes about two hours, sometimes just to have maybe a good drink or have a nice long bath and just take time before you get into bed.
Questions to Jim :
Interviewer: Ok Jim, now, you're the man of the band, tell me, do you prefer playing the keyboards or the guitar, 'cause you can play both really well.
Jim: Well, keyboards was my first instrument, my father first started to teach me I think when I was three or four, and I started learning guitar... I was taught by a neighbour when I was thirteen, so I think because keyboards gives you a lot more versatility, because if you can play keyboards you can also play drums, you can also play the bass, you've got the saxophone on the keyboard, you know with sampling technology, so it's much more versatile, so I have to say that keyboards would be my favourite instrument.
Interviewer: And outside music I hear that you're passionate about Formula 1, so do you actually get to go to any
races ?
Jim: It's fun. Formula 1 racing is a very recent addiction for me, and I was very lucky to have a chance opportunity to meet with David Coulthard at the filming of an audience with Rod Stewart. And, he came up to us and told us how much he loved our music, and I was saying "My God", you know, "I'm a big fan of yours!", and he was really, really nice and we had a drink together and then he invited me to go to Monte Carlo. Now, I had never been to a Grand Prix in my life before, so I didn't know what to expect, and you don't, honestly, get the full sense of what it's about, 'til you're actually there, in the flesh, and it's exhilarating. The ear-deafening noises of the cars as they pass you, and I was very lucky, I got into the pits, in the area where they assemble and they assemble the cars. And, you could eat your dinner off the floor, it's unbeliavably clean. But, that was a wonderful opportunity and unfortunately... with the matter of... well, it's a good thing and a bad thing, we've got fantastic success at the moment which just means that we have very little free time. We've got over three weeks coming up… which is gonna be off soon, which is great. Ehhh... but that's the downside, but you know, you gotta make hay when the sun shines.
Interviewer: So what did you actually do before you decided to get together with your three sisters and form the
band ?
Jim: I lived in Germany for about a year and a half, and actually toured with a pop-rock band over there. And they were living in a place called Mainz, just outside Frankfurt, and we had great fun touring around all the Army bases and the Air Force bases, and I did that way before, obviously, we got the family band together, and it was a wonderful experience.
Questions to Andrea :
Interviewer: And Andrea, you're so busy in the band. When you get time off, what do you actually
do ?
Andrea: Well, when I get spare time I like walking, new places, drinking tea, going out with friends, the usual stuff really... making dinner. I like cooking, I love reading, and talking with my friends.
Interviewer: So if you're gonna really pig out what would be your ideal food to do it
on ?
Andrea: This is bored at this stage, but I always like it...it's cod with tomatoes, and olive oil, and it's beautiful, baked cod kinda thing, I like it a lot, I'm biased, of course.
Interviewer: People always say how stylish you look in the band, what kind of clothes do you actually like to wear?
Andrea: Clothes-wise I get into a rush, and I could wear the same thing every day, because it makes me feel comfortable, and that doesn't really look very good because people go "Haa-ha!" Eehh... I like black long skirts, and little black tops, so I kinda buy that a lot. Desigers... I mean, we are dressed a lot by Versace, and... I like clothes, I like clothes from anywhere, it doesn't matter and I mean, if it's pretty to me it's fine.
Interviewer: Well guys, I just wanna say big thank you for taking the time out to speak to us and I wish the Corrs all the best in the future.
