Music will never stop - it can never stop. I will continue to sing for my fans till the end of time.

I think that as a band, we find joy, and we love what we are doing. We are very good friends, so we get on very well, and we have a lot of respect for each other. We have a lot of respect for what Westlife is. We have a very, very solid and strong fan base all over the world.

I'll give up this sort of touring madness certainly, but music-everything is based on music. No, I'll never stop my music.

Our music will continue to have an impact in people's lives long after we finally call it quits.

I just hope that our fans are people who are inspired by music, and just use our music as a background or inspiration for whatever it is they do.

Every year, we couldn't believe it, and even when I look back on it now, to sell 14 million singles, 50 million albums and sell out arenas and stadiums, what Westlife achieved was crazy. It's like One Direction probably don't realise how big they are. They'll look back one day and think, 'Holy God, that was pretty amazing.'

Our music comes from our hearts - and it always has.

If I'm honest, I thought Westlife would keep going for longer than it did - we all did - but it sort of came to a natural end. When we decided we were going to split, I thought, 'If I'm going to sing, I'm going to have to do it solo.' Also, financially I was broke, so the decision was ultimately made for me.

Music is meant to be a beautiful thing.

If you're a music fan, you think these artists will be here forever, but you should enjoy them while they're here, because you never know what will happen.
