They sold over 50 million records worldwide,including 14 number one singles in the United Kingdom. WESTLIFE also was listed in the Guinness World Record as the UK's top selling album group of the 21's Century.
On October 2011 WESTLIFE confirmed that they are thinking about to split up. The numerous fans from worldwide got a huge shocked of that news. It was totally heartbreaking news to the music lovers. Most of the fans of the band are females. They are just like devastated to hearing that news. Because their music inspired them a lot. Their melody was unlike from others.
Many fans grown up with their songs. The fans of WESTLIFE still can not understand that why they split. Because the band were doing well. Their singles and albums making hit business in the market as usually. Their last album "Gravity" had sold 358943 copy in the UK. It managed to take No. 1 place in Irish Top Chart and NO. 3 in UK Top Chart. They were going for Epic in Pop music. So why the splitting. Back in 2008 Shane showed no interest to work as a solo artist.
One reason could be, Nicky revealed that members of the group fought with one another for just simple reason more and more often and even they could not agree on any decision. So, that could be the one major reason for splitting. After disbanded Shane concentrate on his solo carrier. He released his very first studio album "You and Me" , which released in November 2013. Seems he is now enjoying his solo carrier. Another former member KIAN EGAN has recently released his first solo debut album "HOME" which released in 14 MARCH ,2014. The album reached at 2nd in IRISH TOP CHART and NO# 6 in UK CHART. Another member MARK FEEHILY also going to released his solo album. But the die heard fans of westlife still thinking that there will be always a possibility in future of their reunion. Because many famous boy band like BOYZONE, BACKSTREET BOYS, BLUE, 98 DEGREES, A1 also reunite and come back after long years being disbanded. So why not for WESTLIFE.
