Westlife dazzle The X Factor with 'What About Now'
Sunday, 25th October 2009.
Irish pop legends Westlife showed Whitney Houston, Robbie Williams and all of the hopefuls how it’s done on the X Factor’s Sunday night results show.
Westlife’s outstanding live performance of new track “What About Now” opened the show with a bang.
Nicky, Shane, Mark and Kian left last week’s nervous Whitney and week one’s sweating Robbie looking like mere amateurs.
They used the brand new X Factor stage to its full potential too with some astonishing laser effects.
Very cool stuff!
But although their track was released today, we bet you’re wondering where you’ve heard it before...
Yes the X Factor producers have been using a version of the song by US rocker Daughtry as uplifting backing music throughout the audition stages of the show.
So just as we were watching the moment Joe McElderry, Stacey Solomon and John and Edward find out they’d made it to the live finals, Westlife’s new track was being pumped into our ears without us even realising.
The sneaky X Factor devils. Good song though, and it’s available to download now!
