May 10, 200718 yr the hilarious thing is - they're the cheesiest, most bland band EVER in the UK chart's history - and they're covering 3 of the cheesiest, most bland number ones the UK charts has ever seen - Saline Dion, Bryan Adams and Wet Wet Wet. They have zero discernable talent, no style, credibility... nothing, nada... zilch. Louis Walsh MUST be sick of them by now... I mean, they're WAY too old for his tastes these days.... ^_^
May 10, 200718 yr Author now there is an article saying mika is penning a westlife song for their next album.... What should we believe?
May 11, 200718 yr this must be criminal. it is so sad. i thought they were breaking up.....i got my hopes up obviously. thank god i dont live in the uk where they are in your face
May 11, 200718 yr Author mika is writing song for their new album.. probably these are the sun's lies.
May 11, 200718 yr mika is writing song for their new album.. probably these are the sun's lies. it was in the sun about westlife's movie album though :P
May 12, 200718 yr All normal people are against Westlife, Charis. They are like the most shameful group EVER in the UK.
May 16, 200718 yr This is disgusting...just how many more covers are they gonna be allowed to do!! It's just a cheap and relatively uncreative way of them making more money.
May 16, 200718 yr it's simple - you can't be a music fan and like Westlife. In fact, you can't have the tiniest shred of musical knowledge or taste to say you 'like' them. It's processed, bland, turgid and dumb dumb dumb. In fact, rather like their increasingly bizarre fans..... :blink:
May 16, 200718 yr Author i like westlife not music therefor. Still we got 14 number ones over 8 years.
May 16, 200718 yr i like westlife not music therefor. Still we got 14 number ones over 8 years. so did Jive Bunny get to number one... so did Crazy Frog, any number of truly God-awful music has gotten to number one because there's a lot of rather stupid brainwashed kids out there who buy ANYTHING that's number one... or that the teeny magazines say is 'cool'. To try to equate a number one single with quality music is like saying because millions eat at McDonalds, it's excellent food. It's not - it's a bland, cheap, prettily packaged alternative to REAL healthy, good, nourishing food. The same as Westlife are a bland, cheap, prettily packaged alternative to REAL music.

May 17, 200718 yr That's nonsense. :angry: I've been a music fan for 34 years and have over 1000 CD albums, very varied collection. it's NOT nonsense at ALL. To have any genuine knowledge, passion, taste or insight into music... well, you wouldn't be telling us how wonderful Westlife are, would you, it really IS that simple? 1000 CDs.. that all? I've been a music fan for around the same time you have.... I have roughly 14 times the amount of CDs you have. Plus vinyl. Plus cassettes. And a varied collection, too. Pop, you see, doesn't have to be pap. Westlife..... their production is shoddy, they're (at best) average vocalists, their material would make Cliff Richard weep, their choices of cover versions are predictable, tedious and embarrassing, they're TOTALLY manufactured, bland, dumbed-down boyband pop, aimed almost solely at teen girls, middle aged housewives and camp gay men, they write about 1% of their own songs, they are managed by Louis Walsh, their marketing... videos, record covers... always of the lowest possible standard, their image is dated and boring - very Burton menswear, they are devoid of personality - see them interviewed - it's like watching the Stepford Wives... a slightly less female version. I'd like you to specify, fully, what it is you love about Westlife. This should be interesting.....
May 17, 200718 yr That's nonsense. :angry: I've been a music fan for 34 years and have over 1000 CD albums, very varied collection. Then you should really know better mate.... Come on, it's Lowest Common Denominator... I wont be as harsh with you as Russ is being, but frankly for someone to have 34 years of music listening experience and claims of a 1000 CD music collection, then they should know that Westlife are the absolute worst thing ever to happen to Popular music... Even worse than Pete Waterman and his (s)Hits Factory in the late 80s which destroyed the genuinely diverse and interesting Pop scene this country had in the 80s.... Don't wanna boast or nowt, but even as a lad of 15, I was able to see through this "Junk Food Muzak" sh!t for what it was..... :lol: :lol: Westlife is music for bored, middle-aged Housewives to listen to while vacuuming the living room, the modern equivalent of Engelbert Humperdink or Perry fukkin' Como... Only worse.....
May 17, 200718 yr Actually, I would argue that Westlife or Westlife fans are 'Bizarre' to be honest.... Using the term 'Bizarre' implies that Westlife are actually interesting and different, whereas in fact, they actually embody the very definition of ordinariness, dullness and mundanity.... Westlife fans are 'Normal', but not in the good sense of the word.... Frankly, I'm proud to be an ab-normal freak, at least no one will ever accuse me of being a Westlife fan.... :lol: :lol:
