'''''Forgiven, Not Forgotten''''' is the debut studio album by Irish [[pop rock]] group [[the Corrs]]. It was released by [[Atlantic Records]] on 26 September 1995 across the world. The album was primarily produced by [[David Foster]], with additional production by [[Jim Corr]]. In January 1997, a special tour edition of the album was released in Australia and New Zealand and featured a bonus disc containing live and rare tracks which were recorded from their [[Forgiven, Not Forgotten World Tour]].

The title track and the band were featured in an episode of ''[[Beverly Hills, 90210]]'' called "Turn Back the Clock". The band performed the song at a New Year's Eve party at the Peach Pit After Dark. The album spawned five official single releases.

==Background==
Before signing to Atlantic Records the band began recording in a makeshift-home-studio Jim rented out in their hometown of [[Dundalk]]. The band recorded on an eight-track and began making demo tapes, "I remember it being very cold... We had fruit boxes on the wall for soundproofing" Caroline remembered.<ref>{{Cite web | url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0758659/ |title = The Corrs: All the Way Home| website=[[IMDb]] }}</ref> After performing in [[Whelan's (music venue)|Whelan's bar]] in [[Dublin]], the band caught the eye of [[Jean Kennedy Smith]] who invited the band to perform at the [[1994 FIFA World Cup]] in [[Boston]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.absolutedivas.com/corrs/biography.shtml |title=Absolute Divas - the Corrs Biography |access-date=13 January 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120209125419/http://www.absolutedivas.com/corrs/biography.shtml |archive-date=9 February 2012 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

Once in America they met [[Jason Flom]], Atlantic Records's head of A&R: "When they walked into my New York office, I was immediately taken by their beauty, their obvious grace and style. They played me a cassette with "[[Love to Love You (The Corrs song)|Love to Love You]]" and "Closer" on it, then they told me they played all the instruments themselves and wrote the songs. Man, I thought I'd died and gone to heaven."<ref>{{Cite news | url=https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2000/jul/22/weekend.seanohagan |title = We are family|newspaper = The Guardian|date = 21 July 2000|last1 = O'Hagan|first1 = Sean}}</ref> However Flom knew the band needed someone to produce their album so suggested they meet [[David Foster]], a Canadian musician, producer, composer and [[arranger]]. While in New York, two days before the band were scheduled to head home, they crashed a recording session at [[The Hit Factory]], a recording studio in [[New York City]]. Foster invited the band upstairs to perform around a piano, where they sang "[[Forgiven, Not Forgotten (song)|Forgiven, Not Forgotten]]" live. Sharon would go on to say "I think he was taken back {{sic}} by how polished we sounded even then".<ref>{{Cite web | url=https://trevormcshanemusic.wordpress.com/tag/the-corrs/ |title = The Corrs}}</ref>

==Tour==
On 26 April 1996, the Corrs embarked on their [[Forgiven, Not Forgotten World Tour]] that started in [[Ennis]], Ireland, before then travelling to Europe, Australia, Asia, America and Canada, ultimately lasting the better part of two years.
