Andrea: Oh no, we do fight. We have spectacular cat fights. You wouldn't believe it.
Jim: I would..!
Jim (To Caroline, who is doing a really long radio interview): You've been talking so long, are you planning to go solo?
Sharon: I play violin.
Caroline: I play drums.
Jim: I play the fool alot.
Jim: What's the definition of a gentleman? A guy who can play the accordian, but doesn't.
Bert Newton: Is there one particular spokes person, or am I just allowed to ask anybody?
Jim: Well we all speak.
Jim: Don't be afraid to dance to this!!!
Jim: Remember when you were coming down the stairs? That guy over there - see that guy there - he got a picture of you when your skirt went way up.
Sharon: Yeah, right.
Jim: I swear to God he did!
Int: Is there something special in the Irish water that's helping you all along?
Jim: Guinness!
Jim: We've played tricks on each other in hotel rooms, put the mattress in the bath and things like that. But we would never damage anything.
Int: Do you think he fell in love with you 'cause you were great musicians, or 'cause you're such a stunning family?
Jim: Actually, he fell in love with me!
(all laugh)
Jim: (in a serious tone) The three girls here, rule the roost! (points to his sisters)
(the girls laugh)
Jim: They give me a hard time.
Int: Are you a bit submissive?
Jim: What?
Int: Are you a bit submissive?
Jim: Yes, very!
(the girls have a look of shock and disbelief, and immediately turn to Jim as if to check to see if he has lost his mind)
Jim: NOT!
(they all laugh again)
Jim (on Andrea): She was such a cuddly little button as a baby. Then she was a cuddly little sticky, messy button. Now she's this thing that blasts my ears with a tin whistle if I'm not up by 9am!
Jim: [on the Runaway video] Oh, we did an awful lot of running in the woods and i think it was raining so sometimes we got wet.
Jim: [The Right Time video] He turned us into giants and we're actually pretty small if you ever get to meet us in person.
Jim: We defy categorisation!
Jim (at 3 a.m.): Got to go to bed now! We've got a gig tomorrow and I've got a plane to catch!
Jim: It's not like that, really. I'm probably so used to it, having grown up in a family of girls. It never caused me a thought. Also, we're touring with two extra (male) musicians, so it's not as if I'm just touring with my sisters, otherwise, I'd be in a mental home.
Jim: Not all the sights and sounds are beautiful. We were quite shocked by the poverty in Thailand, it was really sad. It was very strange to see people cooking piles of locusts by the side of the road.
Jim: We must be the most boring band on the planet.
Int: Did you swap CDs with the Holy Father?
Jim: Yeah, we gave him our latest CD and he gave us some Puff Daddy and Slayer.
(Jim is asked a question)
Jim: Someone else take that one.
(on Andrea as a wee child)
Jim: She'd have maybe my records on; she'd scratch my records..!
Jim: When we were growing up I suppose in terms of fights, we were like any normal family. We have our rows...I got it first! I got it first!!
Andrea: He's always going first!
Jim: I am not...that's not true!!!
Jim: I was the first out of the womb
Jim: Well, as I was saying...(after girls have all cut him off for a few minutes!)
Jim: That was played in the key of F demented.
Jim: There's seven days remember, and the first day I want to achieve world domination.
Jim: "I really do hope that we can create our own niche. But, when I'm asked to describe our music, I always say that it's modern with an Irish influence, because the Celtic vein runs through everything we do. We're a traditional Irish pop-rock band, whatever that is."
Jim: "Who says we're fucking nice?"
Jim: "Kiss my arse"
Jim: "The Corrs are the greatest thing since sliced bread"
Jim: "I'd feel very comfortable walking around the house with no clothes on, as long as no one was looking"
Jim: "I'll show him the cheek of my arse"
Jim: "Playing Lansdowne road is like diving in at the deep end"
Jim: "I sometimes look at Andrea in our concert and wonder what next unplanned thing we are all about to witness"
Jim: "The girls can look after themselves, half the time they are the ones looking out for me"
Jim: "The girls are the sexy ones not me, I am just guilty by association"
Jim: "I could really live without the bras all over the bathroom"
