I have to listen to Westlife all day - help me!

Dd and I both work from home. She loves music. She loves singing. She loves Westlife. She is LOUD.

(Tbf, I do get a bit of Whitney sometimes, and occasionally other assorted power ballads).

99% of the time I love to hear her sing. However, given she hasn’t been quiet for longer than 10 seconds since c1999, sometimes I’d like some bloody quiet!

She’s belting away down there now - I think you can probably all hear her! I’m glad we don’t have near neighbours.

YABU to have raised a child that loves Westlife this much... and then complaining about it. 😂😂

I don’t know what went wrong @PeeAche2. I’m more of an Iron Maiden type myself. I don’t understand it at all :(.

The best days are the ones where she has lots of calls and meetings, then the Westlife hit is diluted to bearable levels.

Start to idolise them, dress like them, sing their songs - quote their songs when her friends come round - she'll soon tire of them!!
I haven't really got much sympathy for you - I have to endure paw patrol singing all day!!

I’ve served my time with kids tv @muchprefersummer! There was a time when I knew most of the songs in most of the Disney films! However, I’d happily swap Supercalafragilistic etc for Westlife!

Good idea to embrace it though.

Could be worse. It could be Ed Sheerhan, Adele, Duo Lipper or god forbid, Taylor Swift.

Get her to listen to some Heart!

Noise cancelling headphones op. I feel your pain.
