All this month we are celebrating the world of the Boyband and that means that every day of November we are delving into a different song by a different band! Let’s celebrate the boyband, there were many of them in the noughties and nineties when I was growing up so let’s relook at some of the great ones out there!

Track: What Makes A Man
Artist: Westlife
Original Release Date: 2000

I had Westlife albums when they were released but I wouldn’t say they were my favourite band – I think it was because they were a boyband and I loved boybands. Saying that, there are a couple of their songs that I like the problem is that they did a lot of ballads (and always standing up a lot on the chorus as they always were on stools.) So today I chose a Westlife song I haven’t heard in years.

I haven’t heard this song in so long that I forgot it even existed which is a shame as it has a really nice chorus. Very predictable Westlife but still a very nice song.

It is a song that allows Shane and Mark to really highlight their musical talents as they really were the leading talents of the band.

It is a shame this song has sort of disappeared as it is a great boyband ballad.
