No surprise for the stadium tour with the effect that they have on their albums from their Croke gigs and less time consuming Well this is true.. even with those covers. Simon knows at the end of the day most people will remember Westlife with their original hits and luckily on streaming, people remember them with their upbeat songs. Covers are there just for them to survive and have that longevity like ABBA and Beatles because there were more popular choices at that time and much more choices now than in the 60s or 70s. I remember before that someone said that bad karma will get them by releasing covers after covers. I guess it is good karma that is coming in for them now. “I had 13 years. I love Simon. Simon’s the best person in the world. I love working with him. “I used to work with him everyday. The reason Westlife are here is because of Simon. He started this band. He gave us all the hits. He was an amazing A & R guy. Nobody better than him. “I’m saying why isn’t he a Sir. I want him to be Sir Simon. We’re starting a campaign for a knighthood. He thinks he’s royalty already, so it’s fine.” It’s hard to argue with Louis’s assertion that Simon has made lots of people plenty of money. He continues: “The thing about Simon is he’s made more people millionaires than the Lottery. He doesn’t get enough credit for it and he’s great fun.” Watching Louis behind the scenes of the iconic Dublin stadium, it is clear to see he is in his element as he counts down until Westlife take to the stage in front of 80,000 adoring fans. There has been a buzz in the city all day as excitable faces, both young and old, walk the streets covered in glitter and dressed in band T-shirts. It’s something many modern day acts could only hope to experience, and Louis is all too aware it’s a rare feat. He enthuses: “80 thousand people here and 80 thousand tomorrow. It’s f*****g incredible. We could have done three nights. “Nobody does this, nobody. Nobody does figures like this. “I think they’re a better band, and they’re modern day Westlife. They’re not relying on the old hits they want new hits. It’s a whole new chapter. I think they’re in a better place and very focused on what they want to do. They don’t want to be a comeback band.”

BIG-earning Westlife will take home as much as €6million each from their recent Irish and UK dates. Industry sources estimate the reformed boyband’s Twenty Tour grossed in the region of €70million from the shows, which included two huge gigs to 160,000 punters in Dublin’s Croke Park last weekend But they don’t get to keep all the dough and, after paying promoters, venues and their crew of 200, ­Westlife are left with half of that amount to split between their ­manager and themselves. An industry insider told the Irish Sun: “The average ticket price on Westlife’s tour was between €77 and €100 and they were selling out ­arenas all over the UK. “The members made an astonishing amount of money from the reunion already before you consider the money they’ll make from the Asian dates on their comeback tour.” Westlife invested heavily in ­coming up with a jaw-dropping comeback concert for fans. Acrobats from Cirque du Soleil and an array of lasers featured among their huge stage production, which travelled from gig-to-gig in nine articulated trucks. They also filmed every one of their concerts in the UK and Ireland, with the Croke Park shows to be released on DVD next October — a month before their new album ­Spectrum comes out. Our insider added: “Westlife had an outside broadcast unit for all the dates with four cameras catching all the action. The tour film will be a huge seller.” Music business insiders admit they are astonished at the huge haul of cash brought in by Westlife on their comeback dates. BANKRUPT A source said: “Having been away for seven years people wondered how well Westlife would do? But ticket sales went through the roof. “The demand was such because Westlife’s original fans are now grown-up mums and dads, and they brought their kids to all the concerts.” Last Saturday, Shane ­celebrated his 40th birthday party after the Croker gig — a far happier occasion than when they last headlined the GAA stadium in 2012. The Sligo man had only €470 in his bank account five days after the event, after a property development company he owned with his brother Finbarr collapsed during the economic crash. That year he was famously declared bankrupt with debts of €23million. And despite Shane, Kian Egan, Nicky Byrne and Mark Feehily now being flush to the tune of €6million each from their comeback, those working behind the scenes don’t begrudge them. One insider told us: “Everyone knows the lads went through some tough times money-wise when Westlife split the first time, particularly Shane, so people were delighted he celebrated his 40th birthday last week ­playing Croke Park again.” They added: “Shane, Nicky, Mark and Kian have never acted like prima donnas either — either when they were at the height of their success or on this comeback.” We revealed last weekend that Westlife are to tour again next year but will play even bigger stadiums. “They are off in Asia now for the next few months but once they come back in September, you can expect announcements about more Westlife dates next year.”

Is it true that all of their albums are back in the top 100 of the Irish Albums Chart update this week? From https://escxtra.com/2019/07/10/westlifes-gr...-at-croke-park/

Check his UK Westlife ig stories too. He did music videos for Timbaland Does anyone knows who is the mv director for Hello My Love?

Producer and record label choice. Because THE Bryan Mcfaded is the best bass vocalist of the group that is why some wants him back but they need to know the history of the band, he left and lied to them so we don't need him

Yeah a bit too much they were like come on lads no one's doing this kind of keychange right now let's do this. Mark was like Tarzan here lol

Also this is their debut year under Universal Virgin EMI. They had three singles released before their self-titled album release in 1999. They are doing the same thing this time because those were their sales and chart peaks, their first two albums. they were supposed to be signed up under Virgin or EMI in 1998 but they have chosen RCA because they are more pop and Backstreet and Take That were all under Sony. That is why I wanted them to release something last April because I know they won't release something in May (Bop Bop Baby release) and June (I'd Wait For Life by Take That release) because I know July and August will be too long for a release after their March release and it will wane down the hype. They need to drop those patterns already because we are on streaming era and not on sales era. Some fans also thought this is not an official single because there's no music video. I guess it will be a long way to go for most of the fans to adapt to streaming.

The pre-order for the album has been up since October 2018.

It is still on Nov on their site and apple. Last oct the album dates were like that Dec 25, Jan 1 2020. Idk if this is some kind of a tactic or something or just a mere error Amazon Japan have it on Sept 6 ever since and never changed it yet

Louis is reportedly back as a judge on X Factor and the same time it was reported, the Spectrum release date was moved from Sept to Nov.

And this is what is happening right now At this rate, since next year will be the second year of their record deal, the label might try an album release from them with only six months difference from each other and two singles max released from each album. I just don't understand that some fans just want them to stick to their old hits and will not release new singles anymore and or being restricted from releasing new singles

Because fans are deprived with Westlife singles for over fifteen years and they know that. With some fans acting this way, I won't be surprised if they will be back to two singles per album maximum and I will be fuming Also if other can release singles every month why can't they if they have a fresh record deal, it will promote them to streaming users and will surely have big album sales.

If you notice they are still on the testing the waters phase, and taking different approaches with their releases, using very minimal budget as possible. Releasing a music video on a later date is the usual routine now. But since Hello My Love and Better Man are their comeback upbeat and ballad singles. They are pressured for them to do well and released the video and audio all at the same time. This third single, they have lesser pressure so they can do now what they want more this time, the approach of having minimal budget in promotion and they will see how far will it go. This is what the label wants as well. Well I might agree that this song needs a music video asap though, the kind of song that needs beautiful visuals. This might not be the cup of tea for some but you cannot deny this doesn't sound like an album filler at all and very much a single worthy song with the production and all. I can't with the apathy of some fans with this song as I am observing the likes and comments of the fans when Dynamite is talked about online, all they want is the album. Can't they wait for November and let them release more singles? Some fans need to understand that they are delaying the album release is to build up the sales because they should know how little album sales are nowadays

There will be a fourth single. Mark said it before. Maybe they are reserving bigger promotional funds towards the end of the year, the time of the year with bigger sales most likely. Charis I know what you are thinking. they cannot replicate those consecutive number ones in this era. nobody does that anymore especially on streaming era. They are lucky they did it when they debuted in the sales era Big artists now have low chart positions as well.

Let us just be thankful it is not a cover. If they are still under Simon, with the underperformance of Better Man, they would be releasing with a cover right now and most likely it will be released on November before the album and we have to wait that long In a way I think they are kinda sabotaging this upbeat song so they have a reason to release a soaring ballad.
