A few weeks ago, I was watching a soccer game on TV together with some friends of mine. Suddenly the commercial for Westlife's Greatest Hits album came up, and without thinking, I said (with a very loud voice, I must add) "Hey, I got that one!"

Wasn't that a party-killer… the boy-ish atmosphere was completely gone after that remark.

I don't blame them. I used to be the same… shallow and ignorant. But not anymore. Sure, it took me some courage to tell the guy in the CD store that I was searching for Westlife's greatest hits package. Trust me, I was hoping he wouldn't make a big deal out of it. But of course he had to. "It's for my little sister," I said. I don't have a little sister…

Anyway, I'm not shallow anymore, so I can, without a hint of hesitation, say that this CD is wonderful. You heard me. Nineteen truly wonderful songs. Catchy melodies, great voices and excellent-sounding productions. See, now, that wasn't that hard.
