No Matter What

I had started to listen Boyzone songs once again... Those days of teenage pop, those days of boyband era, had accompanied me through my (upper) Primary and Secondary school days.

Just like other then-popular boybands like Backstreet Boys, N-Sync and Westlife, Boyzone gave us quite a number of classic love songs, like "Love me for a reason", "Baby can I hope you", "No Matter What"...While the main vocal of the band, Ronan Keating, had curved out a much successful solo career after the initial split of the band, the boyband had been making a comeback and held much highly-successful comeback concerts in UK and Ireland since last year. Unfortunately, one of its members had passed away suddenly just yesterday.

Stephen Gately, though somehow a controversial figure due to his sexuality, was the 2nd main vocal of the band and with an amazing voice, despite not having a successful solo career just like Ronan. I was shocked to hear of the news of his death through Yahoo! News and once again, yet another celebrity had left the world this year.

Nevertheless, he and Boyzone had contributed a kind of pop culture in the 1990s and early 2000s, and their songs will always been remembered and be heard, just like the ones of MJ.

R.I.P Stephen Gately.
