How many versions of Brian leaving the team and flying solo in Westlife? Tell me everything about it.

Reasons for solo flight: 1. Family reasons; 2. The concept of music creation is different from that of the team.

On March 9th, 2004, just after Westlife's new single Obvious won the top three in the charts, Brian, a member of the group, announced that he would leave the team on the grounds of taking care of his family. This decision is undoubtedly a great blow to Westlife. Since the band 1999 was founded, five people are like brothers, which led to the dissolution crisis of the band that is about to start touring. It is said that the real reason why Brian left the team is the release of Mandy as the first single of the new album Trunaround and the increase of cover tracks, not family reasons. Brian likes to write his own music, which is different from others in Westlife. So he left the group because of his different musical ideas.
