WIN COPIES OF WESTLIFE'S NEW ALBUM NEXT WEEK IN THE DUNDALK DEMOCRAT

The Dundalk Democrat has five copies of one of the most anticipated albums of 2009 to give away, Westlife's brand new 'Where We Are'.


The album is the tenth album in the career of the most successful Irish pop band ever.

Released last Friday, the album is surely set to be another smash hit from the group that delivered classic hits such as 'Flying Without Wings', 'You Raise Me Up', 'World of Our Own' 'Home' and their latest sensational single, 'What About Now'.

In this week's edition of the Dundalk Democrat, December 9, readers will have a chance to win one of five new albums that we have to give away.

So for your chance to win a copy of 'Where We Are' read the Dundalk Democrat next week.

According to Mark Feehily, the album will be packed full of brand new original songs, as well as a couple of remakes and ranges from poppy upbeat tracks to sublime ballads.

The band feel it's one of the best albums of their career to-date and can't wait for you to hear it.

"We know you're excited to hear it too.

"We wanted the first single from our new album to be somewhere between the Westlife sound our fans know and love, and the new direction we're heading in. We've been experimenting with a fresh vibe on this record. After 11 years we see this as phase two of the Westlife story."

Where We Are - your thoughts...

As you all know, Westlife’s new album 'Where We Are' was released on Monday, and you’ve been letting us know your first impressions of the new songs. Here’s what a few of you are making of the album so far:

gemsywemsy - 'The whole album is just amazing. I hope they get a number one, but if they don't the lads should be so, so proud that they have made such a fabby album. Artists always say, "This is our best album yet" But the lads speak the truth. V.V.V. proud to be fan. Well done boys!!!'

jo5269 - 'Amazing, Astonishing, Astounding, Remarkable, Wonderful, Incredible, Startling, Marvellous, Miraculous, Surprising, Mind-Blowing, Staggering. Yes, I kinda like the new album....'

Scousebird - 'After so long, it's so nice to hear the lads again. I have to say 'Leaving' and 'The Difference' are the best! 'No More Heroes' is a beautiful as well. And 'Reach Out' is the one I am humming the most at work.

'See You Again' has a real military feel to it, like it would be played when troops are deployed in the army on assignment and all the family see you off-I really get that feeling on this song!

Overall, the whole album is really inspirational. I am really looking forward to next tour too!'

KinkysIrishSmile - 'Class... absolutely amazing!!!!! 110% LOVE it!!! Can't wait to hear you perform the songs live!'

angelwest - 'Well, what can I say, another platinum performance from all of you. Exceptional vocals on every track and to choose just one as a favourite would be impossible. I'll see you again makes me cry and alot of the others have potential single written all over them, this is just the kind of album that could help you get closer to your dream off 20 No 1's. Where we are has a fantastic intro and should def be released as a single, don't let excellent songs like How to break a heart, the difference and reach out linger as album tracks, hit singles if ever I heard one. Album now on permanent loop on my iPod, I just love it!! Amazing, Fantastic, Brilliant etc, etc not enough words in any language to describe how good it is, everyone buy it NOW!!!'

Grieving Westlife bare their souls

WESTLIFE say recent tragedies including the death of Stephen Gately have forced them to re-evaluate their lives.

Just seven weeks after Boyzone star Gately (33) died in Mallorca the showbiz world will hold an extravaganza in his memory at the Palace Theatre in London's West End tomorrow.

Comedians Graham Norton, Matt Lucas, Alan Carr and Paul O'Grady are expected to attend, though it's believed Boyzone will not perform.

Meanwhile, Westlife singer Nicky Byrne has revealed how he desperately misses his father, Nikki Byrne snr (60), who died so suddenly just three weeks ago.

"The finality of it is just incomprehensible," he said.

Fellow band-mate Kian Egan (29) lost his father, Kevin, after a long battle with cancer in July of this year.

"When I lost my dad the idea of it was just heartbreaking and I said to the boys to make sure and take care of your dads," Kian said.

"And here we are and another of the band's dad is gone as well. It's obviously a very, very difficult thing.

"I don't think you ever get over it. You just accept it a little bit more as time goes on, rather than getting over it," he added.

Dad-of-two Nikki (31) said he doesn't fear death and was grateful that his dad wasn't in pain before he passed away.


Sick

"I'm not afraid to die. I'm too young to die," he said. "My dad always said he never wanted to be sick.

"At any funeral we were at he would say to enjoy life because as quick as you are here, you are gone. The fans have been so good with the letters and the cards," Nicky added.

The group revealed that the song I'll See You Again, which appears on their new album Where We Are, has a special significance to them.

"It's a really moving track but uplifting," Nicky said. "Even though it is about death and someone going, it's about seeing them again and them always walking beside you. It is a message of hope."
