* Westlife Support for sad Brian

Fri, 15 Oct 2004

Lee-Ann Fullerton And Beverley Lyons

WESTLIFE have sent their support to ex-band member Brian McFadden over his break-up with wife Kerry.

The band who received a Record Breakers award from Radio Clyde yesterday said they had sent their best wishes to their friend and hoped they could work things out.

Brian left the band earlier this year but has remained on good terms with the guys and they are rooting for him.

Mark said: 'He's a close friend and we would like to leave it up to them to sort it out. In a situation like this the only way they can do itis between themselves. It's up to them to talk it through, we have spoken to him but we are not sure exactly what stage they are at at the moment.'

The band are preparing to release their first album without their fifth member and they fended off criticism that the swing thing had been done before.

Mark said: 'First of all Robbie doesn't own the rat pack scene. He probably gave us the confidence to do it and he did do it first but this is our take and it's different. Even with all the criticism it's a great thing to do.

People love the music and our younger fans can enjoy it for the first time round.

'The majority of our stuff has been our own original material and we have had successful covers but we don't see this as an album of covers more a tipping of a hat to the music and giving our own interpretation of the songs.'
