"I Know My Love" is a traditional Irish song, extant since at least 1922. [ [http://books.google.com/books?id=u3RKAAAAIAAJ&pg=PA79&dq=%22i+know+my+love%22&as_brr=3#PPA79,M1 Padraic Colum, ed., "Anthology of Irish Verse"] 79 - 80 (New York: Boni & Liveright, 1922).] It is best-known as a single by Irish folk band The Chieftains, released in 1999, taken from their widely-acclaimed album "Tears of Stone".

It features guest artists The Corrs and had been recorded in 1997, while The Corrs were working on their second album "Talk on Corners". After completing the session, The Corrs asked The Chieftains to reciprocate and guest on "their" album too. The end result of this collaboration was a cover of the Jimi Hendrix song "Little Wing".

The Corrs were at the height of their popularity at the time of the release of this single, which is probably why this track was chosen as a single. Despite this, their name does not appear either on the front of the CD cover, nor on the disk itself.

The track was later included on The Corrs' 2006 compilation album "".
