cool funny john kevin meeting paul pope
Kevin Spacey was pretty cool - very funny. And meeting Pope John Paul II was special.
enjoy health knowing life stuff
'Everything To Me' is about everything that's important. It's about my wife, my kids, it's about life, about being happy. It's about life in general, you know, about not knowing what's going to be around the corner, but you've got to enjoy it and enjoy the things you have. My wife, my kids, my health, and stuff like that.
seven together
We've been together seven years and we're pretty much like family.
Westlife earnt millions. We were on the 'Irish Times' Rich List. And then... I'm not!
couple stress twilight
The couple of years before I was declared bankrupt were the roughest. The bank letters, the pressure, the stress was awful. You're in this twilight zone of not knowing where your life is going, and yet you're in Westlife. Everything was great with the band. I was earning money, and it looked good.
lasts albums haircuts
You're only as good as your last album.
numbers facts lucky
It's amazing how lucky Westlife were and what we achieved. It's very rare to have seven number ones in a row. Ridiculous in fact.
