they meet with Atlantic Vice President, successful producer and 12-time Grammy winner, David Foster. Unfortunately, Foster was working with Michael Jackson at the time, and security made it impossible to meet even though Foster agreed to negotiate. The Corrs then took it upon themselves to be signed...

"We took a deep breath..."

The Corrs arrived at Atlantic Records in Manhattan in mid-July totally un-announced. They waited in the waiting room for their chance to see Foster, and they were lucky enough to catch him right at the fulfilment of his commitments to Jackson. The group were invited into the studio to play and played live for Foster who was enthralled. After hearing what was no doubt a breath-taking presentation, Foster reportedly said, "Out of ten, I give you a ten... no, a ten plus." Since then The Corrs have not looked back as their popularity has sky-rocketed.
