It&#8217;s a definite pop anthem, paying heed to the band&#8217;s trademark vocals and harmonies.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Shane Filan, Nicky Byrne, Markus Feehily and Kian Egan annouced their reunion in October last year, amid a frenzy of coverage in both traditional and social media. The group has signed to Virgin EMI, and will release a new album this year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Westlife are set to tour the UK and Ireland in May, June, and July, in &#8216;The Twenty Tour&#8217;, which commemorates their 20th anniversary. Kicking off the tour in Belfast on 25th of May, they&#8217;ll finish up at Dublin&#8217;s world famous Croke Park, on July 5. Croker is dear to the hearts of the group, as the venue for their &#8211; at that time &#8211; final two shows ever, on June 22 and 23, 2012, where they were supported by fellow Irish legends, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=3zBjFKCr6Hs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jedward<\/a>, who themselves are releasing their fourth album this year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8216;The Twenty Tour&#8217; is proving to be Westlife&#8217;s fastest selling tour of all time, with the group selling an incredible 400,000 tickets in only 48 hours. On the setlist for the tour are brand new songs, including &#8216;Hello My Love&#8217; and other tracks from their upcoming album, as well all 14 of their UK No. 1 hit singles, songs such as &#8216;Swear It Again&#8217;, &#8216;Flying Without Wings&#8217;, &#8216;You Raise Me Up&#8217;, and &#8216;Unbreakable&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Westlife have sold over 55 million records worldwide, and are the only act to have their first 7 singles enter the UK charts at No. 1. They also hold the record for the most singles of any artist to debut at No. 1 in the UK. With 14 number 1s, Westlife sit in the third spot behind Elvis Presley and The Beatles for most top selling UK singles.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You can stream and download &#8216;Hello My Love&#8217; <a href=\"https:\/\/westlife.lnk.to\/HelloMyLove\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.
