专辑介绍
首张精选辑 《By Request》 99年8月发行，可以说是对BOYZONE五年来的音乐之旅的一个回顾，所有打入TOP 5的单曲都收录其中，还加了5首新歌，其中三首获得冠军，它们是：翻唱Billy Ocean的《When The Going Gets Tough》、翻唱Anne Murray的《You Needed Me》、 Ronan首张个人单曲——电影，《诺丁山》的插曲《When You Say Nothing At All》。

The title By Request was chosen from many entries submitted through a Boyzone fan contest. The songs themselves were chosen from Boyzone's three albums with several new ones added for good measure. By Request reminds one of how quickly the group shot to the top and how many hits they achieved in only four years. Every song here will ring a bell with pop listeners from Europe and Asia, though Americans will only recognize one or two if they are lucky. For much of the world, the album nearly plays as a Top 40 soundtrack to the latter half of the '90s. With each album it is clear that the quality in voice, production, and choice of song has increased. Beginning with "Key to My Life" from the first album to the group's anthem "Different Beat" to the exceptional Andrew Lloyd Webber song "No Matter What," the group has remained focused on good old-fashioned "music." They have stripped down to the essentials, using sincere lyrics, simple melodies and no heavy synthetic distractions. Their decision to sound more like a band and less like a pop fabrication is admirable and probably the reason why their fellow Dublin band U2 used them on backup for the song and video "Sweetest Thing" (which does not appear on this album). [The Australian edition is missing the song "So They Told Me"]

- @wuhanzijun(粤语经典，古风禅乐new...)：相见恨晚，99年入手的他们的第一张专辑，但转眼解散，还没来得及崇拜，于是拼命在打口碟市场淘他们前几张cd，皇天不负有心人，全部入手，记得全部是50一张，当年工资才300
