Background and release

"Breathless", a pop song, [1] was written by the Corrs (Andrea, Caroline, Sharon and Jim) and Robert "Mutt" Lange, who also produced the track. [2] The song was released as In Blue 's first single in June 2000. [3] The CD single includes "Breathless" and two new tracks: "Head in the Air" and "Judy". [4] In the United Kingdom, a CD and cassette single were distributed on 3 July 2000. [5]

Speaking of working with Lange, Andrea said: "We happened to meet up [with Lange], and we both liked what each other does, so we decided to try and write a song together. So we did, and the first song we wrote together was 'Breathless.' It was a beautiful, sunny day when we wrote it," she continued, "and I think that's very much in the song, because it's kind of high impact and driven and sunny and summery and it's a love song. It's about seduction and how when you're falling in love, you're just enticing that person to go one step further. It's good, good fun." [6]

An acoustic version was made for their 2002 live album, VH1 Presents: The Corrs, Live in Dublin . The song was also included on their two compilation albums, Best of The Corrs and Dreams: The Ultimate Corrs Collection . [7]

Reception

Critical response

Critics were divided over "Breathless". Steven McDonald of AllMusic picked the song as one of the best tracks on the album. [8] Mel Roberts of Amazon.com called it "one of the standout tracks" on the album. [9] For Chris Charles of BBC News , the song "chugs along at Blondie pace before petering out into a wailing imitation of Dolores O'Riordan." [10] Entertainment.ie review was mixed, writing that "Even half-decent efforts such as current single 'Breathless' are ruined by the MOR production." [11]

Jane Stevenson of Canadian website Jam! considered "Breathless" "one of the album's weaker songs". [12] Steven Wells of NME was positive, praising "the incredibly beautiful Andrea basically begging you to get on with it and shag her 'breathless'," writing that "Andrea does a fantastic yodel-type thing with her voice." [13] The reviewers from People magazine called the song "saccharine", [14] while Jake C. Taylor of Sputnikmusic named it a "poppy hit". [15] "Breathless" was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals but lost to Steely Dan's "Cousin Dupree". [16]

Music video

Background

The music video for the song was filmed in the Mojave Desert, California, and at Trona Airport (TRH) in Inyo County on 24 May 2000; it and was directed by Nigel Dick. Two days of on-location filming were required. Both Andrea and Sharon succumbed to heat exhaustion during the two-day shoot and were hospitalized, although they were fine the following day. [6] "We shot the video in the Mojave Desert, just outside Los Angeles," Jim described, "and it was shot by a friend of ours, Nigel Dick. We've worked with him on quite a number of videos. We spent about two days out in the desert sun, and we kind of weren't really prepared for that type of heat." [6]

Synopsis

The video shows the Corrs at a small airstrip performing impromptu inside a hangar in the middle of the desert. They arrive in a Douglas DC-3 airplane (the registration N26MA is clearly visible on the side) and perform the song for an audience of bikers before the final shot shows the DC-3 leaving. There are two cuts of the video. One version was more story-oriented, and shows the Corrs setting up the stage for their show with bikers arriving to see them perform. The second version focused more on a young man, apparently a worker at the airstrip, and his reaction to The Corr sisters as they sing. Both versions were released on their Best of DVD. [6]
