Kalau kamu ingin mengingat kembali lagu-lagunya, berikut adalah lagu Westlife terbaik sepanjang masa yang bisa kamu dengarkan. 

  1. 1. Uptown Girl

    Lagu Westlife terbaik sepanjang masa pertama adalah Uptown Girl. Lagu ini menjadi lagu terlaris sepanjang masa dan telah terjual lebih dari satu juta copy. 

    She's been living in her uptown world
    I bet she never had a back street guy
    I bet her mama never told her why

    I'm gonna try for an uptown girl
    She's been living in her white bread world
    As long as anyone with hot blood can
    And now she's looking for a downtown man
    That's what I am

    And when she knows what
    She wants from her time
    And when she wakes up
    And makes up her mind

    She'll see I'm not so tough
    Just because
    I'm in love with an uptown girl
    You know I've seen her in her uptown world
    She's getting tired of her high class toys
    And all her presents from her uptown boys
    She's got a choice

    Uptown girl
    You know I can't afford to buy her pearls
    But maybe someday when my ship comes in
    She'll understand what kind of guy I've been
    And then I'll win

    And when she's walking
    She's looking so fine
    And when she's talking
    She'll say that she's mine

    She'll say I'm not so tough
    Just because
    I'm in love
    With an uptown girl
    She's been living in her white bread world
    As long as anyone with hot blood can
    And now she's looking for a downtown man
    That's what I am

    Uptown girl
    She's my uptown girl
    You know I'm in love
    With an uptown girl

    My uptown girl
    You know I'm in love
    With an uptown girl
    My uptown girl
    You know I'm in love
    With an uptown girl
    My uptown girl

  2. 2. Flying Without Wings

    Lagu Flying Without Wings juga banyak diputar dan sudah meraih berbagai penghargaan. Makna lagu ini adalah tentang sesuatu yang istimewa yang datang dari hal-hal sederhana. 

    Everybody''s looking for that something
    One thing that makes it all complete
    You'll find it in the strangest places
    Places you never knew it could be

    Some find it in the face of their children
    Some find it in their lover's eyes
    Who can deny the joy it brings
    When you've found that special thing
    You're flying without wings

    Some find it sharing every morning
    Some in their solitary nights
    You'll find it in the words of others
    A simple line can make you laugh or cry

    You'll find it in the deepest friendship
    The kind you cherish all your life
    And when you know how much that means
    You've found that special thing
    You're flying without wings

    So impossible as they may seem
    You've got to fight for every dream
    'Cause who's to know which one you let go
    Would have made you complete

    Well, for me it's waking up beside you
    To watch the sunrise on your face
    To know that I can say I love you
    At any given time or place

    It's little things that only I know
    Those are the things that make you mine
    And it's like flying without wings
    'Cause you're my special thing
    I'm flying without wings

    And you're the place my life begins
    And you'll be where it ends

    I'm flying without wings
    And that's the joy you bring
    I'm flying without wings

  3. 3. You Raise Me Up

    You Raise Me Up sebenarnya merupakan hasil cover milik Josh Gobran. Lagu ini memiliki makna bahwa setiap manusia di bumi pasti akan menghadapi masalah. Maka dari itu, mereka saling membutuhkan satu sama lain. 

    When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;
    When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
    Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
    Until you come and sit awhile with me.

    You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
    You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
    I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
    You raise me up... To more than I can be.

    When you come around
    Yeah that's what I found out honey
    What am I doing without you
    You make me feel happy
    When I leave you behind
    It plays on my mind now honey
    What am I doing without you

    Took for granted everything we had
    As if I'd find someone
    Who's just like you

    We got a little world of our own
    I'll tell you things that no one else knows
    I let you in where no-one else goes
    What am I doing without you
    And all of the things I've been looking for
    Have always been here outside of my door
    And all of the time I'm looking for something new
    What am I doing without you

    I wanna know
    Who ever told you I was letting go
    Of the only joy that I have ever known
    Girl, they were lying

    Just look around
    And all of the people that we used to know
    Have just given up, they wanna let it go
    But we're still trying

    So you should know this love we share was never made to die
    I'm glad we're on this one way street just you and I
    Just you and I

    I'm never gonna say goodbye
    Cos I never wanna see you cry
    I swore to you my love would remain
    And I swear it all over again and I
    I'm never gonna treat you bad
    Cos I never wanna see you sad
    I swore to share your joy and your pain
    And I swear it all over again"

    In our secret place
    With a sound of the crowd
    So far away
    And you take my hand
    And it feels like home
    We both understand
    It's where we belong

    So how do I say?
    Do I say goodbye?
    We both have our dreams
    We both wanna fly
    So let's take tonight
    To carry us through
    The lonely times

    I'll always look back
    As I walk away
    This memory
    Will last for eternity
    And all of our tears
    Will be lost in the rain
    When I've found my way
    Back to your arms again
    But until that day
    You know you are
    The queen of my heart

    No one knows 'bout the things that I've been through with you
    There were times I'd drive you nearly mental
    But when you're mad, you're still beautiful
    And I know that I'm punching way above
    So lucky that we fell in love
    Sometimes I wonder am I enough?

    'Cause you could have someone without a belly or a temper
    Perfect teeth, hair growing where it's meant to
    You know my lips are all I can hold against you
    This is all that I'll ever need, you and I

    Hello, my love
    I've been searching for someone like you
    For most my life
    Happiness ain't a thing I'm used to
    You could have fallen hard for anyone
    Plenty of fish in the sea, hey now
    For all of time, now I know
    It's just my angel and me

    No one knows 'bout all the good things you do
    When people take advantage of you
    Your heart is pure and so beautiful
    And I know that it's just the way you are
    Father's eyes, but mother's daughter
    And you tell me that you don't give enough

    And now I found someone with all the boxes that I want ticked
    'Cause your love is all I ever wanted
    Set my heart on fire, I needed something
    This is all I wanted to be, you and I

    Hello, my love
    I've been searching for someone like you
    For most my life
    Happiness ain't a thing I'm used to
    You could have fallen hard for anyone
    Plenty of fish in the sea, hey now
    For all of time, now I know
    It's just my angel and me

    'Cause you could have someone without a belly or a temper
    Perfect teeth, hair growing where it's meant to
    You know my lips are all I can hold against you
    This is all that I'll ever need, you and I, you and I

    Hello, my love
    I've been searching for someone like you
    For most my life
    Happiness ain't a thing I'm used to

  9. 9. If I Let You Go

    Day after day
    Time passed away
    And I just can't get you off my mind
    Nobody knows, I hide it inside
    I keep on searching but I can't find

    The courage to show to letting you know
    I've never felt so much love before

    And once again I'm thinking about
    Taking the easy way out

    But if I let you go I will never know
    What my life would be holding you close to me
    Will I ever see you smiling back at me? ([Shane:] oh yeah)
    How will I know
    If I let you go?

    Night after night I hear myself say
    Why can't this feeling just fade away
    There's no one like you (no one like you)
    You speak to my heart (speak to my heart)
    It's such a shame we're worlds apart

    I'm too shy to ask, I'm too proud to lose
    But sooner or later I gotta choose
    And once again I'm thinking about
    Taking the easy way out

    But if I let you go I will never know
    What my life would be, holding you close to me
    Will I ever see you smiling back at me? (oh yeah)
    How will I know
    If I let you go ?

    If I let you go ooooh baby
    Ooooooooohhhhh

    Once again I'm thinking about
    Taking the easy way out
    Ooooooooohhhhh

    But if I let you go I will never know
    What my life would be, holding you close to me
    (close to me)
    Will I ever see you smiling back at me?
    (oh yeah)
    How will I know
    (if I let you go?)
    But if I let you go I will never know
    (oh baby)
    Will I ever see you smiling back at me?
    (oh yeah)
    How will I know
    If I let you go ?

  10. 10. What Makes a Man

    This isn't goodbye, even as I watch you leave, this isn't goodbye
    I swear I won't cry, even as tears fill my eyes, I swear I won't cry

    Any other girl, I'd let you walk away
    Any other girl, I'm sure I'd be ok

    Tell me what makes a man
    Wanna give you all his heart
    Smile when you're around
    And cry when you're apart
    If you know what makes a man
    Wanna love you the way I do
    Girl you gotta let me know
    So I can get over you

    What makes her so right?
    Is it the sound of her laugh?
    That look in her eyes
    When do you decide?
    She is the dream that you seek
    That force in your life

    Itu dia lagu Westlife terbaik sepanjang masa yang masih populer sampai sekarang. Di antara deretan lagu di atas, mana yang jadi favoritmu?
