They look so cute! They are trying so hard! Shane sounds so sweet singing country! However I think they should still stick with pop. My opinion, they pulled it off!
too bad Brian couldn't be there. his voice sounds good doing country. like the song he duet with LeAnn Rimes.i live in Tennessee. I used to live in Nashville. country music is one of the toughest genres and country fans are harsh critics. if it's not real country, it will come across and true country fans will be pissed. country fans aren't always welcomed to pop in country.
Well, I personally think the American producers were totally condescending. Not so much that they seemed to disregard other types of music, it's more like they were discrediting westlife's effort cuz they are foreign. Well, guess that's unavoidable, national pride is hard to shake off.
