This in my opinon is the best boy band out their today and it's simply tragic they haven't caught on here in the States! With gorgeous looks and voices that blend perfectly together this is the group that has it all-- It's incrediable!

Their love songs are beautiful and touching great after you've gotten dumped or you've found that special one. I orginally bought this C.D. for the simple fact that Simon Cowell from American Idol produced this C.D.-- and if the hard to please Simon found this group good than I knew they were worth listening too.

This C.D. is their greatest hits and their is a not a bad track on this C.D. My favorite songs are "Flying Without Wings" which is better than the Ruben versiona and "Take A Look At Me Now" the duet with Mariah Carey. Buy this C.D. for your teen or pre-teen daughter and have her be amazed by U.K's "Backstreet Boys."

I love Westlife and their music never ceases to amaze me! Their songs have a lot of soul to it and every album has a nostalgic feel with a new edge. It's just too bad that they never come to my neck of the woods. I would love to see them perform live!

This is definitely a great "greatest hits" CD! It contains so many great songs like "Swear it again", "Flying without wings", "Against All Odds", "Unbreakable" etc. And in this version they exclusively included another version of "Flying without wings" that features BoA, a korean diva who's well-known in Asia (Wonder if anybody in USA know about her). She sounds amazing in this song! I've always and still think it's a bad idea for Westlife to sing fast songs or raps, and thank god in this greatest hits cd most of the songs are slow ones. It's a shame though that they didn't have some other really great songs like "Evergreen" or "Angel" included on it, otherwise this could have been a perfect CD, and which is why I rated the CD as 4 stars instead of 5. Overall, I think this CD is worth the money and would recommend it to anyone who loves Ballads. If you've never had an album of Westlife, then this is the CD you have to buy!

Westlife is the group everybody is talking about! They have an amazing string of hits and they're worshipped by fans everywhere! This single has all their hits, including a duet with Mariah Carey: a FANTASTIC cover of Shrill Collins' "Against All Odds!" It's so amazing. This CD gets my highest possible reccomendation.

there is no other band quite like westlife...this album is absolutely, positively wonderful. u just HAVE to get it. written in the stars and unbreakable are two fantastic songs!!

This is one of the best greatest hits I have heard in a really long time. My personal favorite song is Unbreakable. Other songs I really like on the album is How Does It Feel, Against All Odds, and Uptown Girl.

Westlife to me is one of the greatest group of singers out there today! They have such beautiful voices and wonderful harmonies! They get compared to other boy bands, but they are definitely by far the best of them all. All their albums are absolutely awesome, so I'm not going to say that this one is the best. What I can say is that my most favorite song off this album is "Written in the Stars". I love the words and message to this song. The guys sound so incredible and the music goes perfect with their harmonies. Other songs that are also awesome are "Tonight" (my second most favorite), "Bop Bop Baby", "Queen of my Heart" and "I have a Dream". If you've never heard of these guys, give them a chance! I only wish that they'd make it as big over here in the U.S.A, as they have overseas! They deserve to be #1, because unlike N'Sync and the Backstreet Boys, they've released an album every year since they were discovered in 1999. That is a dedicated group. Even when Bryan (one of the five memebers) left, they didn't just give up, they carried on as a 4 some. That to me shows they love their fans and love the music. I hope they are around for many, many years to come.

this album is one you can just put on and really enjoy each song- there is not need to skip any of them! all the songs are so good so if you like westlife or even if you havent heard of them, you need to have this! if you have any interest in Pop Music, this album is a must!

THE US MARKET IS THE TOUGHEST TO BREAK, NO DOUBT ABOUT IT. ITS A VERY COMPETITIVE, AND LUCRATIVE MARKET. WE HAVE A HUGE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY HERE, WITH A CONSTANT FLOW OF NEW MUSIC, NEW MOVIES, AND NEW T.V. PROGRAMS, WHICH SADLY, LEAVES LITTLE ROOM FOR OVERSEAS "STUFF"(IN THE EYES OF THE "INDUSTRY", ANYWAY) THE OPPOSITE IS TRUE FOR MOST OTHER COUNTRIES. THEY END UP IMPORTING.

ANYWAY, THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT WE SOMETIMES MISS OUT ON A GOOD THING. A REAL GOOD THING. LIKE WESTLIFE. THESE GUYS ARE SIMPLY AWESOME IN MY BOOK. AND LET ME TELL YOU, I AM NOT EASILY IMPRESSED. IF YOU'RE A "HEADBANGER" OR A HARDCORE "HIP HOP" TYPE, YOU NEED NOT APPLY, BUT IF YOU APPRECIATE FANTASTIC HARMONY, FANTASTIC VOCALS, AND BEAUTIFUL LYRICS, YOU'LL LOVE IT. I LISTEN TO EVERYTHING.....COUNTRY, POP, HIP-HOP, CLASSICAL, ECT.... AS LONG AS ITS GOOD MUSIC. THIS IS GOOD MUSIC.
SO FAR, I HAVEN'T HEARD A WESTLIFE SONG THAT I DON'T LIKE. THEY COULD RELEASE THE "ALPHABET SONG" AND I WOULD PROBABLY ENJOY IT, LOL.

AND FOR THE LADIES, I JUST HAVE TO ADD.....THESE GUYS ARE VERY EASY ON THE EYES. ICING ON THE CAKE, BABY. WHEN I STUMBLED ONTO THESE GUYS ON THE NET, I KEPT THINKING....."AMERICA GOT N'SYNC AND THE BACKSTREET BOYS, WHILE THE REST OF THE WORLD GOT THESE HOTTIES!!!!! NO WAY!!!!!" I NEVER DID GET ALL THE FUSS OVER ANY OF THOSE GUYS, BUT WHEN I GOT A LOAD OF WESTLIFE, THE FUSS SEEMED EVEN MORE ABSURD. WESTLIFE WOULD HAVE BEEN BIG IN THE U.S. IF THEY HAD BEEN PROPERLY MARKETED OVER HERE. THEY WOULD HAVE HAD A BIGGER MARKET TOO. AND THEY ARE STILL AROUND.

GO WESTLIFE. KEEP ON, KEEPIN' ON.
LOVING YA FROM AMERICA.

This album has nearly all the Weatlife hits and unlike other "Greatest Hits" albums this is worth buying. Good album. Great compilation. All the songs are equally good. Worth every single cent you spend on it.
