Sharon revela sus planes de trabajar con su atractivo ídolo BublíéLA CANTANTE Sharon Corr ha revelado que ella y su ídolo Michael Bublíé podrían trabajar juntos en el estudio de grabación pronto.La glamourosa madre de dos niños explicó cómo se conocieron cuando el canadiense voló hasta Dublín el pasado fin de semana para dos actuaciones promocionales en el estadio Aviva que tuvieron lugar las noches del viernes y el sábado.Sharon (40) acaba de lanzar su primer álbum en solitario, llamado Dream Of You, y dice que si tuviera la oportunidad de colaborar con el atractivo cantante de Haven't Met You Yet lograría transformar sus sueños en realidad.Esta bella castaña, que conforma una cuarta parte de la exitosa banda familiar The Corrs, admite que espera reunirse con Bublíé en un futuro próximo para discutir la posibilidad de trabajar juntos."Le conocí el fin de semana pasado y es un autí§entico encanto", le dijo Sharon al Herald. "Estuve en su concierto del sábado por la noche y debo decir que lo disfrutíé mucho, de verdad. Es un cantante excelente y fue un concierto genial"."Estábamos en un palco así que no esperaba que el sonido fuera bueno, pero tengo que admitir que estuvo fenomenal. Sonaba de miedo por todo el estadio, por lo que creo que tienen grandes oportunidades de tener un íéxito arrollador en otros conciertos."Despuíés Michael vino a conocernos y estuvimos comentando lo mucho que nos gustaba la música del otro. Ambos hemos trabajado con David Foster en el pasado así que hablamos sobre ello y sobre el talento que tiene produciendo.""Sin duda es alguien con quien estaría orgullosa de trabajar en el futuro, así que nunca se sabe, estad atentos", añadió.Sharon continuó comentado que tambiíén tiene ganas de reunirse con sus hermanos - Andrea, Caroline y Jim - para trabajar juntos de nuevo y dice que puede haber más presión para tener íéxito cuando uno se aventura en solitario."Lo hemos discutido y sin duda haremos algo en un futuro próximo. No va a ser ahora mismo, pero sí dentro de poco. Me encanta trabajar con ellos y los echo de menos ahora que voy por mi cuenta.La ambiciosa artista tiene pendiente pasar un tiempo en España y otros muchos destinos por todo el Reino Unido el mes que viene, ya que empieza su gira promocional para publicitar su nuevo álbum.

FIVE years after stepping away from the music industry for a much deserved break, Sharon Corr admits it strange to be on a promotional tour without her famous siblings.'I've been through Heathrow five times in the last week, some days I really don't where my head is at!'Having just released her eagerly anticipated debut solo album Dream of You, the Dundalk violinist has been blazing a trail across Europe to promote what is surely her most personal collection to date.'It's been getting a great reaction, which I'm just delighted with to be honest, as I put my heart and soul into this album.'Quietly proud of the positive reviews as she took a bus to Cork last week (no chauffeur driven limousines for this down to earth star!), Sharon joined man of the moment Paolo Nutini on stage at the Savoy for the Arthur's Day celebrations.'It's strange, at times, doing this without them,' she says of Caroline, Andrea and Jim.But after thinking about it for a few moments, she adds: ' There was a lot of waiting around though when we did interviews, as there would be four of us to answer questions!''But it's been a big learning curve for me since I finished the album in July, I've learned a lot being out there on my own.'In 2005, the Corrs decided to take a break from recording and performing to concentrate instead on their own lives, and in Sharon's case, start a family.After selling almost 30 million records, playing sell out venues across the world, and winning accolades everywhere they went, she says they felt it was time for the wheels to stop turning.'At that stage we had been doing this for the best part of 15 years. It was a long time, and I think we just wanted a break, a chance to do our own thing.'Five years out of the spotlight was much needed she says, and in that time all four siblings saw their personal lives bloom, with Caroline now a mother-of-three, Sharon going on to have two children, lead singer Andrea marrying her millionaire boyfriend Brett Desmond, and Jim becoming a father for the first time.After giving birth to her son Cathal in 2006 and her daughter Flori Jean just over a year later, she recalls 'a fantastic time being a stay-at-home mother. 'I really loved it,' but concedes that she never envisaged giving up on her music career.'I realised I can't not do this, it's part of who I am. I have to keep writing and performing just to feel normal.'I missed it hugely when I took a break. For so long being a part of this crazy thing – the music industry – was the norm for me, and it's hard to walk away from that.'But I never stopped writing music, it's in my blood. In fact one of the songs on the album Dream of You I wrote when I was pregnant with Cathal.'She describes it as an ode ' to the incredible relationship you can have with someone you've never met' and decided that it should be the title of her first album.All of the tracks are ' deeply close' to her heart, she says, and reflect an experience she had, or an emotional reaction she felt to something she heard.'One of my favourites is Evelyn, inspired by James Joyce's short story. That always stuck with me, about a girl who had the opportunity to go away with a man she loved, but she didn't and spent the rest of her life thinking about what could have been.'She says she ' just knew it had to be a duet' and was delighted that Spanish musician Alex Ubago joined her on the track to channel the sense of love and loss.Going back headlong into the business has been 'a great joy' she says, and even though she penned some of The Corrs' most famous tracks such as So Young and Radio, this was her first opportunity to make every song her own.'I really enjoyed recording again. I think we all missed it,' she says, not afraid to answer speculation that the band are about to reform.' We've been talking about it a lot, and we definitely hope to work together again as a group in the next two years.'Hoping to tour with her own album in early 2011 and planning to reunite with her musical siblings, begs the question, how does she balance it all out with family life?'I have found a balance I think, the kids are in Montessori now, they're growing up fast!' The thing is, they've only ever known mummy as a musician, and although it never gets easier leaving them, they haven't known any other way of life in that I go away sometimes and then I'm back.'Sharon and husband Gavin Bonnar have now moved from Belfast and she says the family are 'very happy' in their new home in Dublin. Travelling the world as part of one of Ireland's most famous bands never took her away from her roots.'I love Dundalk, and in many respects still call it home. I don't get to visit as much as I did before I had the kids, but it's always in my heart.'My dad is there, my two best friends still live there, and I'd like to be able to get back more often to see them.'Fond memories abound of a happy life at home with her father Gerry, and later mother Jean, who sadly passed away in November 1999, and whose memory is ever present to this day.'Music was always in our house, growing up we didn't know any other life,' she muses, perhaps not realising the similarities to her own kids' upbringing.A hugely talented, natural musician since her youth, she recalled never having a problem with music exams in school, a fact which went un-noticed by a former teacher, a nun.'I remember I left a music exam early, and she told me I'd be a failure, which really surprised me at the time. I only left because I had finished it!'While most people who have similar childhood memories that spurred them on or acted as a catalyst for their success, Sharon says she is more understanding now of where the comment came from.'I'm sure she looked at me and thought I was throwing away opportunities, when she perhaps didn't have the same opportunities.'But she adds that life has taught her not to harbour resentment.'As a child I was shocked, but as an adult I am more forgiving.'Sharon reflects that the road she has travelled from Dundalk to the four corners of the world and back again has ' been an incredible one, meeting the most amazing people'.She never tires of music, she says, and is a huge fan of contemporary artists such as Paolo Nutini and Irish band The Script.'Paolo is a real stand out singer songwriter, and The Script are really great.'I meet them recently, and they're just a great bunch of guys, really down to earth, never forgetting where they came from.'Now doesn't that sound exactly like another band millions of people hope to see back in the charts very soon?
