Music to our collective earholes - Brian McFadden leaves Westlife. Surely the end is nigh for this blight on Irish music? I was fairly indifferent to them until I heard their version of Mandy, one of the most brutal songs ever committed to an aural format. It both sucked and blowed in equal proportions. You would have thought with all their money they could have got some decent songwriters to knock something out for them, but oh no, trawl the archives for the lamest of the lame.
