Five to six singles? Yeah, right. I wish they would release at least 3 proper singles this time, but I don't see not even that happening, since they always abandon the album after it sells a million in the UK and they go on tour. Argh.
rest assured, this will not be one of my favorite album from them.
Other fans really like what they've heard :/
but as a general music fan, I have a different point of view.. of course!
Again,
They can release The Difference, Where We Are, Shadows, Reach Out… and Sound of a Broken to have a little bit UPbeat
If you're a fan of ballads. you should definitely buy the album because I think it's flawless and they really did a great job on finding STRONG POP-ROCK BALLAD SONGS!
I guess it's the theme of their album now and they'll try to break in countries that likes an album that is not mixed with different sounds. need to hear the full version.
I like most of their ballads, but we could use a little shake up.
Not to mention they lied once again, they said this album would have some up-tempo tunes, more than their previous ones. I'm like you, I'm a "general fan", far from being a, err, Westlife stan, so this annoys the hell out of me.
I'm disappointed, but then again, I wasn't expected a powerful album from them. They have disappointed me for the last few years, so all the excitement has gone when it comes to them releasing new albums or songs. The last song they released which I liked was 'Amazing'.
Leaving, Shadows, Where We Are, No More Heroes, Sound Of A Broken Heart, I'll See You Again are the best on the album. The other tracks >>>
I guess this album will be way better than Face to Face (with 6 covers!) and Turnaround because it's TRUE that there are big potential BALLAD hits on this album and it's also true that they're really change into a NEW SOUND
Pop's most enduring group, Westlife, have finally emerged from the studio after a year-long break to present their brand new album, 'Where We Are'.
Spending much of 2009 hidden away in studios across Europe and the US, Westlife have been quietly creating their most exciting album to date. 'Where We Are' features work from pop's finest craftsmen, including grammy nominated Ryan Tedder (Leona Lewis, Beyonce) Steve Robson (James Morrison, Take That) Steve Booker (Duffy) Louis Biancaniello and Sam Watters (Whitney Houston, Anastacia.) and Shaznay Lewis, who co-writes a track with band member Mark Feehily.
These stellar production teams have helped the boys create a new and contemporary sound, whilst retaining those classic Westlife soaring melodies and rousing lyrics. Featuring the already massive hit single 'What About Now' it's a collection bound to excite fans and pop enthusiasts alike.
Perhaps best showcasing this new sound is 'Shadows', co-written by Backstreet Boy A. J. Mclean. A classic Westlife choral anthem, peppered with a futuristic military drum roll fashioned by urban-pop maestro Ryan Tedder. The song sets the benchmark for the sound which brings Westlife bang up-to-date on the eve of the new decade.
Elsewhere 'The Difference' visits rockier terrain, while 'Another World' allows Mark Feehily's exquisite vocal to escalate to gospel territory, a moment sure to thrill live. 'I'll See You Again' laments the passing of a loved one, set to a haunting landscape of piano, synths and acoustic guitar, a moment surely relatable.
Shane Filan of the band says "We've been experimenting with a fresh vibe on this record, working with new producers and writing songs for the album ourselves. After eleven years we see this as phase two of the Westlife story."
Westlife's new material is the first since 2007's 'Back Home', which became the band's seventh number one album, spending two months in the Top Ten and selling over 1 million copies in the UK alone.
No pop band can compare to Westlife's extraordinary success. During their 11 years at the top of pop's hierarchy, the band has sold over 40 million records globally. In the UK alone they have scored nine multi-platinum albums and a record breaking 14 No.1 hits (behind only Elvis and The Beatles). They have also picked up innumerable awards and appeared on hundreds of magazine covers around the world. They are the only recording artists to win the prestigious 'Record Of The Year' an incredible four times (other top awards include two BRITS and an MTV Europe Award). Westlife are also the biggest selling Arena act ever, holding the record for the most concerts held at Wembley Arena, an incredible 23.
