Delta supplies song

October 11, 2006 12:00am

 

DELTA Goodrem has recorded a duet with Irish boyband Westlife.

 

Goodrem appears on the band's cover album singing the Air Supply hit All Out of Love.

The last single Goodrem released was Almost Here with boyfriend Brian McFadden, who was in Westlife.

 

The group will release a cover of the Bette Midler classic The Rose as the first single.

 

With Marcia Hines, Human Nature and Rod Stewart also releasing cover albums, it is a worrying trend.

 

It's about time for some innovative originals.

The heart-throbs release their much anticipated new single 'The Rose', plus find out if they're performing at a venue near you

Westlife are the biggest vocal boy band in the world and their successes to date are unrivaled.

 

The new album

 

November 13th will see Westlife release their 8th album, 'The Love Album'. Following on from the enormous success they achieved last year with the release of their Number 1 album 'Face To Face', Westlife return with a new album consisting of 11 of the most classic and memorable love songs of all time.

 

The album will be preceded by the single 'The Rose', which is set for release on the 6th of November.

 

Shane, Mark, Nicky and Kian look set to bring some romance to Christmas this year with a selection of their favourite love songs that they personally chose.

 

Pre-order Westlife's 'The Love Album' nowThe opening track and first single 'The Rose' sets the tone for the album. Originally a huge hit for Bette Midler in the US in 1980, it now looks set to emulate the success here in the UK. On another of the album's many highpoints the guys teamed up with Australian singing star Delta Goodrem to record a version of 'All Out Of Love'.

Westlife have experienced phenomenal success from the start of their career dominating the UK music scene for eight years. Having sold over 35 million albums worldwide (hehe rob) with six multi-platinum albums in the UK, 12 UK number ones and countless awards including two BRITs and an MTV Europe Award. 'The Rose' marks Westlife's unprecedented return reaffirming their reign at the top.

 

Record breakers

 

11 November 2000, Westlife equalled the record set by the Beatles, with their first seven singles scoring the 'Most Consecutive Number Ones'

 

They also hold the record for the 'Most Entries at Number 1 by a Debuting Act'

 

They've made 8 albums, with six multi-platinum albums in the UK alone

 

Having sold over 35million albums worldwide

 

November 2002 saw Westlife set a new Guinness World Record for the 'Most Personal Appearances' by a pop band in 36 hours (Westlife visited Dublin, Belfast, Edinburgh, Manchester and London to promote their Greatest Hits album Unbreakable) which entered the album charts at number 1 (and was top ten in over 16 countries).

Westlife history

 

In 1998 Shane, Kian, Mark were in an unknown Sligo pop group named IOU, who made their debut at The Point - Dublin's biggest pop venue.

 

A local TV show brought them to the attention of pop svengali, Louis Walsh, who hired them to support the US band, Backstreet Boys. It was their biggest gig by far, and a long way from the school show Grease where Shane, Kian and Mark sang together for the first time. After the show, Louis was impressed. He said "I can't see you up there and not manage you!" recalls Shane.

 

Louis introduced new members Bryan, fresh from stage school, and Nicky, an ex football apprentice at Leeds United, to the ranks of the newly-named Westside.

 

Signed to RCA by Pop Idol's very own Simon Cowell, Westside were renamed Westlife, after learning of other American acts with their moniker.

 

Groomed as natural successors to Boyzone, the quintet's debut single 'Swear It Again' was a highly predictable Irish and UK chart-topper. The follow-ups repeated the feat when they entered the UK singles chart at number one. 'Flying Without Wings' gave them their third number one in October 1999.

 

Topping the charts with 'Fool Again', a duet with Mariah Carey on a cover version of Phil Collins' 'Against All Odds', and 'My Love', amongst other hits, they had soon notched up seven number ones.

 

It was in March 2004 that Brian quit the band to spend more time with his family at the time, leaving the band as a four. However, Westlife have dominated the UK music scene for over 8 years.

She could do Dublin, because she's one of their "friends" and thats there home crowd, and Delta would prob be in Dub with Brian anyway!

I hope it doesn't get a release, do anyone know if it will?

I hope Delta doesn't tour with WL cuz if she does then I'll have to go :lol:.
She better not tour with them coz i really really really don't want to have to make myself go

It would be like selling yourself to the devil forcing yourself to go to a Westlife concert just for Delta :lol:

 

Love,

Kirsty xx

She's boosting their popularity :kink:

 

I actually would quite like this released now I've heard it :blush:

I would like it to be released too, this would really boost her profile!!

 

Love,

Kirsty xx

Hahaha, like everyone else said, i might actually have to sit through westlife just to see Delta, haha!
