Westlife copy EVERY tune they ever sing... the act that just performed sang Daughtry's tune "What about now" ... NOT bloody Westlife.

Sorry... rant over but that annoyed me.

Westlife's version was always better than Daughtry's and Connected did it justice tonight...

I have to agree - Westlife do copy other people all the time, and they are possibly the most boring boyband ever.

'Cos Westlife invented music.

Give over ... Daughtry's was much better than Westlifes... anyway... that's totally besides the point.

They copied Daughtry... they didn't copy Westlife. You copy the original.

totally agree op i hate it when opeople dont say the oroginal singer

daughtrys song not westlife i dont care if it was five little boys copying them

Totally agree. I'm not saying they are talentless ... but come on ... create your own tunes without living off other people's efforts.

Because they look like a shrunk down version of westlife!!

You forgot the wink!

I'm sorry but people who are judging Westlife clearly haven't seen them live - they sing live all the time and on occasions they do write their own material - Mark wrote a song on their new album called Reach Out and I love it.

I will defend Westlife and their talents to the high hills no matter what other people say.

cos they're shite aswell

Westlife are shit and just do cover songs, that is why he doesn't want them being like them.

Ohhhhhh please. You named 2 tunes that 99% of people have never heard of.

They have basically 'cheated' their way through their music career... there should be a rule implemented for bands in that they have to create unique material 90% of the time and allowed to 'copy' 10%.

Westlife are the best live performers in the UK...and their first 7 singles went straight to number one beating a record held by the Beatles...

Thank you - case in point - they are the BEST boyband by far at singing live - better than JLS who MIME like they did on Britain's Got Talent when they were on it.

From Hayley

That wasn't the debate though.. it was the fact they copy other producers. They should make all their own tunes... Britney Spears does and I'm sure many others do too.

sorry theyre not the best at singing live ive heard them westlifefan of course doesnt matter wot anyone says you wont listen

they came in at time when ther wa sno other boyband around take that had broke up and they filled theyre place-badly i might add

now tt are back they wipe the floor with them

sold out stadium shows-westlife couldnt do that even if they had another 20 years of their career

and 2 songs u mention they wrote themselves-wow

try 99% of tt song they do actually write

Shows how much Simon pays attention to the acts that were on American Idol

Connected sounded as boring as Westlife do.

It annoyed me too! I hate that Westlife and the Cowell Factory have kidnapped Daughtry's brilliant song.

Westlife's phenomenal success cannot be denied...almost every artist in the UK would sell their soul for even half of their success....

Success doesn't always equal talent. Westlife are the most tedious band known to mankind, according to scientific research...
