What songs will Westlife be performing?
Although the band have not revealed details of their tour setlist, we sincerely hope that they perform some of their biggest hits to date, including 'You Raise Me Up' and 'Flying Without Wings'. We would also expect Westlife to perform their brand new single 'Hello My Love' which drops on the 10th January, which is rumoured to be written by Ed Sheeran.
The popular Irish band tweeted a nine-second clip of their new single last night (7th January) revealing the single's name and its release date, this Thursday.
Westlife 'You Raise Me Up'
Westlife's 'You Raise Me Up' is one of the most popular songs amongst fans on the Internet. The song is a cover of the original song by Irish-Norwegian duo Secret Garden, released in 2002. It became Westlife's lead single from their sixth studio album 'Face to Face' and their 13th Number 1 single. It was also the band's first song after Brian McFadden left.
Westlife 'Flying Without Wings'
Back in 1999, Westlife released 'Flying Without Wings' which was their third single from their self-titled debut studio album. It also became the band's third Number 1 single, and is one of their biggest selling singles to date.
