Westlife’s most popular tracks and albums are this morning unveiled by the Official Charts Company, in the wake of their dramatic retirement announcement last night

The four-piece Irish boy band revealed yesterday that they are to go their separate ways after their tour next autumn, and the release of their new ‘Greatest Hits’ album, which is due out on November 21.

It is quickly followed by the double a-side ‘I Have A Dream /  Seasons In The Sun’ and ‘You Raise Me Up’, which have sold 640,000 and 450,000 copies respectively.

Westlife’s Official Charts Company certified sales show that Westlife have sold 20.2m records and videos in the UK across their 14-year career - 6.8m singles, 11.9m albums and 1.5m videos.

Their biggest selling album is their first ‘Unbreakable’ compilation, followed by ‘Coast To Coast’, with six of their albums selling one million copies or more. Their biggest selling video is ‘Where Dreams Come True’, which has sold 240,000 copies to date.
