I don't think JLS or Blue should be put in the same sentence as those three bands

Westlife, 100%.

But I love Take That, and I like Boyzone too.

I first bought a Westlife album when I was 12, got bored with the covers, but I've got hugely back to being a fan again with the last album - 1 cover on the album, brilliant quality songs. Mark especially is great on the new album - he has one song with only his vocals on the song, and he's helping to write more songs now too.

But I love all 3.

Errr, well none .

Ok if I had to choose one I think I'd go for Boyzone since when I was little there was a tape my Mum had that was forever played in the car. So I can't help but have a soft spot for a few of their songs

Take That by default as they are the only one of the three that I can listen to some of their songs without wanting to cut my ears off.

Boyzone were never much cop and Ronan doing that ludicrous growling that he calls singing makes me want to slap him.

IMO, Westlife churn out the most bland and insipid bilge known to man. It's music for people who don't really like music.

At least Take That write their own stuff and have done a few decent songs.

Boyzone by far for me..and they're even better this second time round

I don't mind the other two groups but Boyzone were the first band I was really into, so their songs hold a lot of happy memories and meanings.

The other 2 are just pure crap how anyone can call these a band and pretty laughable.

Take That by far. They write their own songs and have so much more personality than the other 2.

My sister used to be obsessed with Take That so I became very knowledgable about them, and I have been to see them live with her. Neither by choice. But I could see their appeal, as they are very good.

Boyzone aren't so bad, but Westlife are just stagnant and so awful it is beyond words. No creativity, no personality. It really is a shame when you see people who are too scared to try anything daring, and so they just stick to the tried and tested cliches for cheap success.

Have seen all three "live" Take That were the only ones who were entertaining - the other two being very very poor imitations - just bland and boring.

So without any shadow of a doubt Take That.

Take That by a million... Westlife and Boyzone could never create songs like "Patience" "Rule The World" even the 90's cheesy Take That songs are better than Westlife and Boyzone put together.

Take That are definitely the best. They have some fantastic tunes and their live show is excellent. Also they all have input into the band and Gary is a great songwriter.

Boyzone are piss poor. They had a couple of songs in the 90's I liked, the rest was pretty bad and that song Love You Anyway is atrocious...not to mention the video *cringe*. Their shows are awful as well judging by the clips on Youtube, dancing and singing is crap and their performances come off as cheap and cheesy, I saw a clip of them dancing with toy guns how woeful.

I hate Westlife's songs, but in fairness they have at least 2 good singers, Mark and Shane, and I think they're better performers than Boyzone.

Take That, without a shadow...their early music was ok, boarding on cheesy, however, their comeback albums are simply awesome. They have matured, along with their music, into fine young men...this coming from a 34 yr old guy!
