IRISH supergroup, the Corrs, are planning to play Belfast - probably before Christmas
As they prepare for the launch of their long-awaited new album, the mega-selling band say Northern Ireland is top of their touring list.
Jim Corr from the Dundalk brother and sisters act said: "We would love to play Northern Ireland. We just can't wait to come back - possibly before the end of the year.
"When we last played there we had a very special reaction from the crowd - it was just electric."
The Corrs who have sold millions of albums worldwide are one of the biggest groups in Europe and Australia.
Now, they've got a new album Talk On Corners released on Friday.
And that should keep the family posters top of the pops.
"We are really pleased with the new album," Jim said. "We've really enjoyed doing it and now we're hoping our fans will love it."
Only When I Sleep is the first single to be taken from the Corrs' new album.
Their debut album Forgiven Not Forgotten went silver, gold or platinum in the UK and much of Europe, double platinum in New Zealand and Denmark, seven times platinum in Australia and an incredible eight times platinum in Ireland.
