A particularly joyful time for music as the odious Westlife announce they are calling it a day, having formed a "band" consisting of four mediocre singers who have been together for 14 years and have contributed absolutely nothing to music whatsoever. Not one thing.
I thought that a band had to consist of people playing instruments rather than just warbling cover versions of others work or giving the world insipid ballads that sound like they were written by the creators of Mills & Boon, perhaps even Dame Barbara Cartland in her present state of health (been dead for fifteen years).
Westlife and their manager Louis Walsh for me represent all that is vile and wrong in the music world. The demise of Westlife will begin to see the fall of the karaoke pop world as represented by the likes of Walsh and that supreme monger of pap - Simon Cowell. Mark my words, the empire of tosh is begging to fall and not before time.
Good riddance to Westlife and the lot of them.
