Sony BMG admitted to "Music Week" this week that "That's My Goal" has been hanging aroung the Sony/BMG offices for a while;

"It's a song we've had for quite a while and it's a great pop song that stands up on its own merits," says Sony BMG imprint Syco's vice president Sonny Takhar, who is confident the record can make it to the top spot, but acknowledges nothing can be taken for granted".

But is the world aware that this was a song that none other than Westlife rejected for a soundtrack to the Special Olympics in Ireland 2003 for sounding "too wet" !!???

Because everyone who says something semi negative about it is bitter! I aint bitter at Shayne winning, didnt really have a preference after Brenda but can honestly say that song is the cheesiest thing I heard in ages!!! I hope it doesnt get number 1 & that Shayne learns from it & comes back with some blinding tracks!

If I had the time, I'd draw up a list of songs that got "passed" by various people before becoming monster hits for someone else. So the fact that Westlife passed in itself is not very significant.

But I have to admit: I've yet to hear the song!

I heard it on Saturday and didn't really like it but it might get better once i've heard it a few more times.
