Here's this week's topic: imagine Westlife are playing a special gig for you and your friends. Which five songs would you want them to perform and why? Add your thoughts over in the forum now.

Last week, we asked about the friendships you've made through being a Westlife fan. You had loads of great stories to tell, and here's one of our favourites, from Laura1987 [That's me!].

"It may sound corny, but the friends that actually sticked around over the years are the friends I met through Westlife. I met Sandra 10 years ago (in September) in our first year of secondary school and when I found out she was a Westlife fan we became inseparable and she's still my closest friend.

Then there's Wendy who I met through a Westlife club Sandra and I set up. We met up for concerts and talked online and now the 3 of us are meeting up when we can and going to concerts together (been to Dublin 3 times and Glasgow once), but sadly enough Wendy doesn't live exactly around the corner from us..

And then there's Simone, who I started talking to like 4 years ago I think and we actually talk on MSN every day and I think I can say we're pretty close as well now. We're meeting up a few times a year, as we live quite a bit away from each other..

Then last but definitely not least Anita & Annette from Sweden and Denmark. I've met Anita twice and Annette briefly after the Croke Park gig. But they're the living proof that internet friendships CAN last. I wouldn't know what to do without them!

So guess it's right to say: Thanks Westlife for giving me these amazing friends!"
