"Breathless" is a single by Irish pop-rock group The Corrs, released in 2000, taken from their third studio album In Blue, and co-written/produced by Shania Twain's producer, Robert John "Mutt" Lange. It is considered to be the band's breakthrough worldwide hit, as it finally gave them a hit in the United States. Although often confused by many to be Shania Twain indeed it is The Corrs. It also scaled all major international charts and gave them their first (and only) UK number 1. It also reached its peak at number 1 in Ireland and France and placed high in the top ten in Australia and in the top thirty in United States. The single was the 33rd biggest-selling in the UK in 2000.
