爱尔兰似乎“盛产”男子组合，除了U2，Boyzone之外，WestLife是又一支享誉世界的男子组合。他们的歌声具有洞穿心灵的魅力。 "Westlife" 这张专辑中一共产生了5首英国冠军单曲，有一举惊人的纯纯民谣 "Swear it again" 和 "If I let you go" ，可以让人想起很多其他民谣乐队的作品，比如Beautiful South ； "Flying without wings" 五子的合声演绎出一种纯真的感情；Shane主唱的感伤情歌 "Fool again" 也绝对是独处时的花酒；而重新翻唱的柯达胶卷广告曲"Seasons in the sun" 则是一首音色俱佳的杰作，包含了对儿时生活的怀念和对老朋友的眷恋，给人带来无限感慨，古人云：“人生如梦，一樽还酹江月”，每个人都有梦想，但是，不要让心中的梦想永远成为梦想。 "I don't wanna fight" 很动人；犹如天街小雨般轻快的 "No No" 让人心旷神怡；还有中慢板的抒情曲 "I swear I need you" 和有Boyzone味道的 "Try again" 。在电子乐，迷幻摇滚和舞曲轮番上阵轰炸市场的今天，Westlife的音乐给人一种清新自然的感觉，别有一种情趣，不过本张专辑略显时间过长。
这里大家请听一下"Swear it again"这首民谣，Go on! Guys
SWEAR IT AGAINI wanna know
who ever told you I was letting go
of the only joy I had ever known
girl they were lying
just look around
and all the people that we used to know
have just given up the wanna let it go
but we're still trying
so you should know this love we share
was never made to die
I'm glad we're on this one-way street
just you and
I justt you and
----------------------repeat-----------------------------
I i'm never gonna say goodbye
cause I never wanna see you cry
I swore to you my love would remain
and I'd swear it all over again and I
I'm never gonna treat you bad
cause I never wanna see you sad
i swear to share your joys and you pain
and i'd swear it all over again
-----------------------repeat---------------------------------
some people say
that everything has got its place and time
even the day must give way to the night
but I'm not buying
cause in your eyes
i see a love that burns eternally
and if you see how beautiful you are to me
you'll know I'm not lying
sure the'll be times we wanna say goodbye
but even if we tried
there are some things won't be denied
won't be denied
我想知道
是谁对你说我想让唯一的欢乐离去
姑娘，他们在说谎
只须看看
周围 我们曾熟知的那些人已经放弃
他们想让爱情离去
但我们依旧在努力
因此你该知道我们共有的爱情决不会枯萎
我很高兴你我义无反顾地走在这单行道上……
