Westlife-the star of the relationship to the groupies: Not real love

"Westlife-the star of the relationship to the groupies: ”Not real love”"

"the Promise to Sweden before the comeback: ”Stay out”"

"From the ”boyband” to ”manband”."

"Westlife are back and are now talking frontman Shane Filan out about the divisions and how to handle groupies married."

" Absolutely, we got a lot of attention from women, that's what you get when you are part of a in, he says to Nöjesbladet."

"They were one of the world's largest in that with songs like ”My love”, ”If I let go” and ”Swear it again” put tonårshjärtan in the fire of the world."

"Now makes the comeback. A little older, a little more mature and, to quote frontman Shane Filan, 39, a bit ”pappigare”."

" I don't think we see ourselves as an in like we did in 1999. But we will always be called ”boyband”? Probably. But we are probably more of a “manband” or “dadband,” he says to Nöjesbladet."

"Westlifes reunion was announced already in the autumn, and they have since had time to release the single ”Hello my love”. Soon will come the new album, including Ed Sheeran has been involved in."

"In the summer they go out on tour for the first time since 2011, when the band broke up."

"the Reason for the breakup was, according to Shane Filan in short, that ”they had enough'."

"– We managed to release 12 albums and played together in 14 years, it is a very long time. We enjoyed not the as much the last couple of years and we always wanted to stop at the top. We at the moment we felt it was the right choice. When we look back on it, we are all still agreed that it was the right decision."

"the Tour, which takes place in the Uk and in the band's home country, Ireland, is dedicated to the fans."

"– this is The kind of tour that will be very nostalgic for all of us. We are very fortunate to have such a strong catalog of songs in the back."

"Something Sverigestopp are not yet planned, something frontman regrets."

"– Sweden, and throughout Scandinavia, is a huge market for us and has always been there. The first opportunity we get to go to Sweden, we will take, it is so simple. The best we can say to the fans is: keep out."

"”Is about to get older with style”"

"If the tour will attract as many screaming teenage girls during the 90's heyday remains to be seen."

"For sure, this is Shane Filan aware that times are changing. And that it is not only the band's music has appealed to fans."

"It is a bunch of good looking guys who in their younger days have graced many tonårsrumsväggar, and with age comes a certain degree of concern over losing their ”sex appeal”."

" Honestly, yes, it is clear. You need to keep yourself in shape, but I definitely believe that we as a band are more in shape than we have ever been before. We have become better at taking care of ourselves. But certainly, the older you get, and it's about to get older with style."

"For Shane Filan means that it lot of training. He will go out and run as often as he can and also has a PT."

"– Some of us turn 40, so it's not just for the band's sake, but also for our children and wives."

"”Got a lot of attention from women”"

"He got married to wife Gillian Walsh Filan, 39, back in 2003, a time when the band would often find themselves on the tour. "

"But to fall for the wistful groupies have never been on the map."

"– Some are probably more interested in it than the other. Absolutely, we got a lot of attention from women, that's what you get when you are part of a in, and, of course, you like the attention. It is nice, but it is not real love."
