Single Of The Day: Westlife - Swear It Again

Another new boyband from Ireland, Westlife is trying to break the international music industry. This time under BMG Records / RCA Records, they released their debut single "Swear It Again" (with sweet pop ballad genre). This single was officially released on 19 April 1999 as a compact disc and cassette. Written by Steve Mac and Wayne Hector, "Swear It Again" was also produced by Steve Mac. The song was recorded in September 1998 at Rokstone Studios in London, United Kingdom. The single has already reached number one on the UK Singles Chart in its first week of release, selling over 182,000 copies, making it one of the fastest-selling debut singles of the year.

What makes this single stand out is the perfect blend of emotional lyrics and beautiful harmonies that showcase the vocal talents of Shane, Kian, Mark, Nicky, and Brian. "Swear It Again" serves as an excellent introduction to Westlife's signature sound, which combines traditional boyband elements with a more mature pop approach. The track will be included on their upcoming self-titled debut album, scheduled for release later this year. With Louis Walsh managing the group and Simon Cowell overseeing their career at BMG, Westlife has all the ingredients needed to achieve international success. This single demonstrates why they deserve to be the next big thing in pop music, following in the footsteps of successful Irish acts like Boyzone and the Corrs.
