Another masterpiece of the four Irish

In my opinion it concerns with Face to Face to one of the best albums that have Westlife ever published. One notices the album that Westlife their usual style of music (catchy ballads, covers) have maintained, but can on the other hand realize that their 'boyband Times' hysteria are over. Your music has become more much quieter and more mature. They have made a name in England and Ireland, and are an integral part there of Pop. You can see that their (still) ongoing success and the long time that already exists, the band, which goes far beyond the expiration date of a boy band.

The individual songs from the album:

You raise me up: A beautiful quiet power ballad that convinces with soulful, strong voice and good instrumental deposits. She reminds the Irish-tinged instrumental deposits at home to the guys and has little explanatory anthem.

When You Tell Me That You Love Me: The gecoverte song is very catchy and is vocally very strong and sung by duet partner Diana Ross and Westlife. However, I do not like the song, because he is too Christmassy and does not fit into the overall concept of the album.

Amazing:

one of the best songs on the album and the 3rd single release. This song is refreshing and very catchy; it is very reminiscent of the earlier days of Westlife and is strongly reminiscent of "why do I love you" on the 3rd album World of Our Own.

That's Where You Find Love:

A beautiful, catchy ballad, which attracts many well-chosen metaphors about love. It gives goose bumps and hits directly into the heart.

She's back:

The song was very surprising for me; on the one hand probably because he is one of the few fast songs on the album, on the other hand because it reminds the style very to Michael Jackson. A pleasant catchy melody and advertises itself well to dance!

Desperado:

A song that goes in danger of being easily overlooked because it is not very catchy and at first a little stiff / acting bored. However, I noticed from the beginning that good vocal performance of the two lead singer Shane and Mark on. After repeated listening this very soulful piano ballad convinced then, one first has to give something in listening. In my opinion, this song takes off through the text a bit from the others.

Colour my world:

On the one hand this harmonious ballad has a nice catchy melody, the other confident lead singer Mark Feehily by its very demanding falsetto deposits in the chorus, which act at the beginning a little weird and surprising.

In This Life:

This song is a typical Westlife ballad, he excels jeodch additionally by the special goose bumps that grips the audience, which is generated on the one hand by the very harmonious, soothing melody, the other by the extremely soulful voices. The increase in the song is made very enthralling.

Heart without a home:

A ballad that is very similar to the previous one. However, a weak point of her is the fact that it sounds like an 'imitation' of other pop ballads. When hearing one believes all the time to know the song from somewhere. Nichtsdestotrotz- a really beautiful song that gets under your skin!

Hit You With The Real Thing:

The second of the two single Uptemposongs the whole Albums- and for me he is clearly among the highlights!

On the song I like that it starts quietly and then suddenly surprise to Uptemposong will and- surprisingly for Westlife !! - invites you to dance. It is my opinion the only song on the album, which is typical of boy bands.

Change your mind:

This is the icing on the album for me. Westlife set with the song on it another, and present a different facet than in the previous songs: it reminds clearly of the '60s. It is in my opinion the most catchy and just plain fun. It exhilarated the audience and pulls him whether he wants to or not co-! The song you just have to love - a very successful conclusion, which rounds off the whole album again.

Overall, I forgive the album four stars, because I find the one that an album earned five stars if the artists have written the lyrics themselves, which is the case here at all. This aspect also has disappointed me a little in the album. In addition, the tracklist a bit lean (11 tracks) and is one of the songs I do not like (When You Tell Me That You Love Me). Would not bother me these points, the album would definitely deserves 5 stars because it convinces with a lot of good quality and catchy songs and also good voices. You can tell the boys their many years of experience in the music business in definitely. I would recommend this album only!
