Westlife 4 Lifek. Westlife are the biggest pop act in the U. and much of Asia simply because they sing the most romantic ballads with so much feeling. If you like the best songs from Boyz II Men's II album then you'll love these classics from Westlife. I have all of their albums and this is just a hightlight collection of their singles but if you're just getting into them this is a great introduction. This collection also features a bonus track the new version of "Flying Without Wings" with Korean pop sensation boA, Who will soon be playing the role of Cho Chang in the next Harry Potter film -"Harry Potter & the Prisoner of Azkaban. But Bottom Line If You LOve Ballads this is a must have!.
my love
all i can say this song is an anthemic ballad of similar epic proportions, which showcases the bands' talented vocals and soothing harmonies. it easily touch your heart when they sing this song. you can feel that it comes from their heart. actually this song tackles about someone you love that you always remember after all what happen. it tries you to go back the memories you shared together and to dream a moment that makes you both happy. all i can say is try to remember all those laughter and love you shared together because this is the only way your love will survive.
Not particularly worth it
The album is a 21-track fest of the
band's biggest hits, including their #1 hits and cd-single tracks. After barely 4 years in the pop music industry, boyband giants westlife released their greatest hits album, that from the
reviewer's standpoint, is their answer to US Backstreet Boy's Greatest Hits: Chapter 1. The problem is, haven't fans heard enough of this? The
radio edited versions of the songs are a plus, but it's been released in their previous albums and as singles that I've
gotten tired of hearing the same material over and over again. So maybe you're saying "I'm reviewing the wrong album!", well,
not exactly. Beyond following other artists that just serve up their old songs, the band has been generous and also recorded
a couple of new tracks (including the title song: Unbreakable). These songs are reminiscent of the pop-factor that made the
band famous in the first place: soppy, heart-wrenching ballads. While most of the songs showcase the band's vocal prowess,
it does get nauseating after a while, since the only thing that separates the tracks are a change of tempo and of lead singer.
Don't believe me? Check out which songs have the word "Miss You" in the lyrics.
For the die-hard fan or those who are interested to hear what the Irish quintet's brand of boyband music is, the album would
suit you perfectly, for the casual listener (boyband-related or not), this CD is much better off as a rental.
one of the greatest fan of westlife
This was the first CD that I bought of WESTLIFE. I heard the songs of Westlife but I never bought a CD. I can proudly say that this was a good experience for me. I got the best tracks of Westlfe. My best track is "WHEN YOU ARE LOOKING LIKE THAT". It is one of the best tracks of westlife. The new tracks are also nice but they cannot compete the old tracks of westlife . They will remain ever green forever. I want to wish them Good Luck for their future.
Solid Stuff
Well, actually, they are a bit on the cheesy side, and all three have sappiness in common, but that doesn't stop this retrospective from being the most essential purchase for any Westlife fan or any fan of solid boy band music. Irish boy band Westlife is like a millenium cross between the Carpenters and Air Supply, only without the former's melancholy
and the latter's cheesiness. It does everyone the favor of wading through the group's often too-lengthy studio sets, while also providing several new tunes incorporated for your listening pleasure. While the group traffics mostly in the ballad arena(very fine examples here being 'Swear It Again' and 'My Love'), it's a nice change of pace when they throw something out like 'World Of Our Own' or the silly 'Bop Bop Baby', which breaks up the monotony of the whole thing. It's too bad all the new tracks are so predictable and snooze-inducing--it's all too-familiar ground that at some point they're going to have to move beyond. Overall, it's a solid collection, though it's docked one for the spate of tired new material.
