About What Can I Do

"What Can I Do" is a song by Irish band The Corrs, from their breakthrough album Talk on Corners (1998). The song was originally released in January 1998, but its moderate charting success was limited, due to the time of the shooting of the video. However, it was later re-released in August that year in a remixed form by Tin Tin Out, which generated more attention, particularly in the UK where it reached No.3, and became one of the band's most known hits worldwide. The song received generally favorable reviews from music critics, some of whom felt it wasn't as strong as their previous songs. An accompanying music video was released, which was shot in New Zealand during their world tour.
