Best of The Corrs is a compilation album by the Irish pop rock band the Corrs, released in Ireland on 19 October 2001. The album consisted of the band's best-selling singles since their first chart appearance in 1995 with "Runaway", up to the Robert John "Mutt" Lange remix of their 2001 single "All the Love in the World", which charted at number twenty-four on the US Adult Contemporary chart.[4] The album also featured the new single "Would You Be Happier?", as well as a new version of the Talk on Corners outtake, "Make You Mine". By the end of 2001, the album had sold over 2.4 million copies worldwide.[5] By 2017, the album has sold 5 million copies.

In October 2023, the Corrs announced a re-issue of the album on vinyl featuring newly-recorded covers of Fleetwood Mac songs "Little Lies", "Everywhere" and "Songbird" to complement their previously-released cover of "Dreams". As a tribute to Christine McVie, writer of all three songs, the re-issued vinyl was released on 1 December 2023, a year and a day since McVie's death. [2]
