O M G.

ARE YOU SITTING down? You may need to sit down.

The Corrs have announced that they will play their first gig in 10 years this September.

Speaking to BBC Radio 2 yesterday, Andrea Corr said that the group were also working on a new album.

*hyperventilates into paper bag*

In light of the news, we have compiled a list of times they were absolutely iconic.

You’re welcome, Ireland.
