The year 2001 was a watershed moment for The Corrs, the Irish family band of siblings Andrea, Sharon, Caroline, and Jim. Having broken through in the mid-1990s with Forgiven, Not Forgotten , they had successfully blended traditional Irish folk music with modern pop-rock sensibilities, often drawing comparisons to The Cranberries with a fiddle. By 2001, following the massive global success of Talk on Corners (1997) and In Blue (2000), they were at the apex of their commercial power.

The bass lines on the upbeat tracks, particularly on "Irresistible," are tight and punchy without drowning out the mid-range details. For an album that relies heavily on layering—synths, strings, tin whistles, and drums—FLAC ensures you aren't losing any of the sonic texture the producers intended.

Andrea Corr possesses a distinctive, ethereal soprano that lives in the high-mid to high-frequency range (5kHz–12kHz). MP3 encoding uses a "psychoacoustic" model to discard "imperceptible" highs. Unfortunately, this strips the air and shimmer from her voice. FLAC retains the full harmonic structure, making "Runaway" sound like she is in the room.

A genuine FLAC of this album is most likely sourced from the original CD (2001 pressing) or a high-resolution digital master. No official 24-bit release exists, so 16/44.1 FLAC is the standard.
