03:55İkons, that was mind-blowing, that was, you know?
03:59Ladies and gentlemen, boys out. Thank you.
04:03We were kind of the biggest boy band in the world at the time.
04:05It was a pretty big deal.
04:08After that, it went crazy.
04:18The success of it all was so much
04:21that you literally couldn't walk down the street
04:24without being noticed.
04:30It was absolute fame.
04:33It was everywhere.
04:34Everywhere you looked, everywhere you went.
04:40We didn't get any media training
04:41or any sort of training.
04:47We kind of made it up as we went along.
04:53It can be dangerous, you know?
04:55There's pitfalls in that.
04:59Looking forward to a scotch.
05:07I was a showbiz journalist
05:09from 1995 to 2008.
05:13For me, it was Get the Splash,
05:15which is the front page.
05:16That's all I cared about.
05:17That was the holy grail.
05:23I think it's over 50 splashes,
05:25front pages I got,
05:26which is a lot.
05:27I'm not obviously bragging,
05:28but I'm quite proud of what I did.
05:30What were you known for?
05:33I don't know.
05:34I think a lot of people have got various words for me,
05:36but to be honest,
05:38I just got stories.
05:39The show was gossip,
05:40and obviously the majority was pop
05:42at that time,
05:43because it was the charts are a huge thing.
05:47We were losing to the sun
05:50every week,
05:51almost every day.
05:54It was a really unrelenting
05:56war of attrition
05:57between the sun and the mirror.
05:59You were always trying to work out
06:01their next move
06:02or what their next interview was
06:04or what story they got.
06:06Boyzone became my biggest obsession.
06:10Money is no obstacle.
06:14Everybody was on the payroll.
06:16Security guards at clubs,
06:19they told me stuff.
06:20Drivers,
06:21coke loom attendants,
06:23all sorts.
06:23A lot of it was
06:24they were cheating on people
06:25or whatever it was,
06:26but they did it.
06:28So we wrote it.
06:32Most of the times,
06:33Lewis said,
06:34write what you want.
06:35There were times when he said,
06:36don't write certain stuff,
06:37but 99% do what the hell you want.
06:47We're doing okay.
06:49We're doing okay so far.
06:52I'm trying to be honest with you.
06:55I got to know Ralph Singh very well
06:57and he would come to Ireland
06:58to see me
06:59and get stories of me.
07:00He needed stories.
07:02I needed press.
07:03It worked for both of us.
07:05He would call me up.
07:06I would give him everything
07:07on the group
07:08and we would, you know,
07:09we kept the badge
07:11in the papers, basically.
07:14I respected him a lot.
07:15We had a good relationship.
07:18Lewis would tell me,
07:19oh, just don't put this in.
07:21and I said, okay, fine,
07:22but then you owe me one
07:23or the other way around
07:24or, you know,
07:25and that's how it was done.
07:39Stephen was just absolutely
07:40living the life
07:41that he had dreamt.
07:42The fans absolutely adored him.
07:44They loved him to bits.
07:49Love the way you love me
07:53But he seemed anxious.
07:56I think he might have been
07:56a bit lost or worried about, like,
07:58what people might think
07:59of his sexuality.
08:02He had to watch himself
08:03all the time, like,
08:04everything had to be in secret,
08:07you know.
08:10The papers didn't know
08:11he was seeing someone
08:12at the time.
08:24I used to be in a boy band
08:26called Imiekt,
08:27half British,
08:28half Dutch.
08:29We were a boy band,
08:30like Boyzone.
08:32Love is everywhere
08:36We managed to become
08:37the biggest boy band
08:38in Germany.
08:47Yeah, probably the same audience
08:49Boyzone had.
08:51It was a big secret
08:53that I'm gay, you know.
08:56Me hiding my sexuality
08:57as well was quite a,
08:59yeah,
09:00difficult thing.
09:03I always felt like a Mickey Mouse
09:05in Disneyland, you know.
09:07I mean, in Disneyland
09:07it's not allowed
09:08to take your head off
09:09because once you take
09:10your head off,
09:11the whole magic is gone.
09:12And that's how I felt as well.
09:14If I really show who I am,
09:17then people won't like me anymore.
09:19Me and Michael's best friends,
09:20look at us.
09:21We look great, to be example.
09:23They look wonderful together.
09:25They look wonderful.
09:25I'm going to be very fun.
09:26I'm watching the Michael.
09:28When I met Stephen
09:29for the first time,
09:29I was on the airport
09:30in England,
09:31and on the same flight
09:33was Boyzone.
09:34And that was the first time
09:35we sort of met
09:36and the moment
09:37he looked in my eyes
09:38and I looked in his eyes
09:39and I thought, wow.
09:41Yeah, blue eyes,
09:43very, very sweet face.
09:46Almost like love at first sight.
09:54It was very difficult
09:55to start a relationship then
09:56with somebody
09:56who's traveling all the time,
09:57you know.
10:04It's very, very difficult
10:05keeping up a relationship
10:06with anybody.
10:07You're never in the one place
10:08at the one time.
10:09You're traveling so much.
10:13I tried to call him
10:14with my credit card
10:15in the airplane and stuff,
10:16and he tried calling me.
10:20How am I going to take him?
10:2530 years ago,
10:26so no iPhones and stuff then.
10:28Do I have to stay here
10:29if we can go to prison?
10:33Steele was dating Eli
10:35for quite a period of time.
10:37We knew Eli well.
10:39He used to call on the tour bus.
10:40There was lots of moving pieces
10:42around to try and,
10:43you know,
10:44make it happen
10:44that they were there
10:46and they could be together.
10:47This person goes in this car
10:49and this, you know,
10:50making sure that they,
10:51they got some time together.
10:52We were so, like,
10:54used to hiding
10:55our sexuality,
10:57but slowly we started
10:58getting friends in
10:59and my friends introduced,
11:02I introduced Stephen to them.
11:06I went over to Ireland,
11:08met Michel,
11:09his family,
11:10stayed with his family,
11:11used to go to the pub,
11:12drink a Guinness and stuff,
11:13you know,
11:13and that was the nicest,
11:15just experiencing normal life,
11:17you know.
11:19I remember Stephen
11:20being very excited
11:21and telling me,
11:22oh, I've met somebody
11:23and I think this is the,
11:24this is definitely the real thing
11:26and I'm absolutely mad about him.
11:31Sometimes I used to look at him
11:32and wish I was as happy as he was.
11:37OK, he might have lived
11:38in a certain amount of fear,
11:41but he didn't show that,
11:43he didn't show that
11:43because he almost
11:45didn't believe
11:46that was possible
11:47for anyone to come in
11:49and take, strip him away,
11:50strip that away from him.
11:51I guess he was almost
11:53in a bubble of covering
11:54and he thought
11:56that was impenetrable
11:58and was soon to find
12:00that it wasn't.
12:10Somebody came to the sun
12:11was selling the story
12:13that, um,
12:15that Stephen was gay.
12:17Somebody sold him out.
12:19Somebody sold Steele out.
12:22Who was it that sold the story?
12:23I can't tell you.
12:24I know you're going to push me on the front,
12:25but I can't say any more than that.
12:27I really can't.
12:28Do you know the circumstances
12:30of how Rav came to getting that story?
12:32No, I don't.
12:33I don't know, I swear.
12:35I swear to God.
12:37I didn't want Rav to write anything.
12:40His editor was put under pressure to do it
12:43and if the sun didn't do it,
12:45the mayor were going to do it
12:46or somebody was going to do it.
12:48I think we were flying somewhere
12:50and this meeting had to happen
12:52before we flew away.
12:53We were all brought into a room
12:55and we didn't know why.
12:57We knew there was something going on
12:58with Stephen because he was very upset,
12:59but we didn't know why.
13:02Louie told us
13:03that the press were going to write a story
13:06about Stephen
13:06if he didn't come out as a gay man.
13:10How do you see it?
13:11Well, I think in a way,
13:13if he was forced,
13:14he was forced from his inner circle,
13:16not the sun.
13:17So we did the best we could,
13:20but he was forced by somebody
13:22he knew, not us.
13:27He wasn't ready for that.
13:29The poor little fella,
13:30he was so afraid,
13:32so scared.
13:34And I think we as a band too
13:36were like,
13:36whoa, what's this going to do for us?
13:38I know how scared he was.
13:40It's awful.
13:43Fucking horrible.
13:44Like, it was horrible for Steele.
13:49Stephen went aground,
13:50locked himself in his room.
13:54Oh.
13:55We didn't know what was going to happen.
14:02I want to understand,
14:03how big a deal was it
14:05for you, for the paper?
14:06Yeah, can I have some more water?
14:08Can I have some more water?
14:09Yeah, of course.
14:10Will you...
14:10Sorry.
14:12Is it all right?
14:12I just need to...
14:13Because my mouth's getting dry.
14:17I mean, it was a big thing.
14:19I mean, it's huge.
14:21I had so many phone calls
14:23to drive about it.
14:25We knew we could trust him
14:27a certain amount.
14:29Not totally,
14:30but we could do it our way.
14:33That phone call we always feared
14:35was finally happening.
14:36I think Stephen and me
14:37were very nervous about it.
14:41I was worrying so much.
14:43You know, sleepless nights,
14:45worrying, panicking.
14:46You know, it was a hard time.
14:50And I remember just putting my arm around him
14:52and just saying to him,
14:53listen, you know,
14:54we'll still be here.
14:56You're not going to lose us.
14:58But he was very concerned
15:01as to what damage
15:04it would cause us as a band.
15:09He felt like,
15:10I'm put in a position
15:11that I've no choice,
15:12you know,
15:13but to do it, like...
15:15Stephen was only 23 years old
15:17when he was outed
15:18by the newspapers.
15:22Did any part of you feel
15:24uncomfortable about
15:25writing the article?
15:26No, I never felt
15:27uncomfortable at all.
15:29No.
15:30How am I a celebrity journalist?
15:32I have to write it.
15:32It's a show visit.
15:33That's my job.
15:34You know.
15:37I actually have the newspaper
15:38and I'm wondering
15:39if I can show it to you.
15:40Oh, yeah?
15:46I was fucked, man.
15:56Boys aren't stars.
15:57Stephen Galey has chosen
15:58The Sun to make
15:59his courageous announcement.
16:01Fuck you.
16:02You can fucking choose.
16:10Sorry.
16:11Sorry.
16:16It's just...
16:18Yeah.
16:21It's just a bit difficult.
16:27Just seeing all that again.
16:31What does it bring back for you?
16:32What does it...
16:33Kind of...
16:33The stress of it?
16:36Yeah.
16:39Yeah, I suppose just...
16:42Just everything he went through.
16:46You know.
16:48It was very, very difficult for him.
16:51It was horrible for him.
16:53It's...
16:53It's heartbreaking.
16:56That paper doesn't show any
16:57of the truth
16:58in what he felt
16:59or what was going on.
17:02Awful.
17:03Fuck me.
17:03It was awful.
17:04It was a terrible time for him.
17:08Oh, you got the full paper.
17:10Oh, my God.
17:11Boys, I'm Stephen.
17:12I'm gay and I'm in love.
17:13Oh.
17:14He's talking...
17:14It's a great picture.
17:16World exclusive.
17:17Wow.
17:18Wow.
17:20I love it.
17:21Page 22, 23.
17:23This is when the song was big.
17:25And it's...
17:26It's the lead story.
17:28Wow.
17:30It's good to see it.
17:32And he got the front page.
17:34What's Louis' role in this
17:35as the manager
17:36and the kind of press manipulator?
17:37I don't know.
17:41It wasn't...
17:42It wasn't seen.
17:44It wasn't anywhere around.
17:46I was trying to protect him
17:47all along.
17:47I thought, well,
17:49it's going to come out anyway
17:51and Stephen might be happier.
17:55Well, good morning to you.
17:56Hi.
17:56Morning.
17:56If you haven't heard,
17:57Boys' own Stephen Gately
17:58has come out.
17:59He's said that he's not ashamed
18:00of being gay.
18:01Why should he be?
18:01And he thinks it's time
18:02to be honest and tell everybody.
18:04Mind you, we hear that,
18:05as usual,
18:06the poor lad wasn't given
18:06that much of a choice
18:07in the timing of that statement
18:08because another newspaper
18:10had kindly decided
18:11to out him themselves.
18:12I thought they'd all said
18:13they wouldn't do that anymore.
18:21Shortly after,
18:22the headlines in the newspapers,
18:24we had to play into
18:25100,000 people in Hyde Park.
18:30Obviously, with all the press
18:31that we're getting lately
18:32with certain members
18:33of the group,
18:33it's quite difficult,
18:34you know what I mean?
18:35That would be Stephen
18:35you're talking about, isn't it?
18:36Absolutely.
18:37It's the old kind of
18:37keeping a bit of a low profile.
18:39We were all just concerned
18:41about Stephen's well-being
18:42and his happiness.
18:43he was our brother.
18:46But Stephen was concerned
18:48about the reaction
18:48that the fans would have
18:49to him being gay.
18:52I didn't know which way
18:53it was going to go,
18:54whether it was going to go
18:55negative or whether
18:55it was going to go positive.
18:57And I, you know,
18:58always think of the worst.
18:59to him for the only person in Soros,
19:02to him during the day.
19:05Here he is.
19:11Here you go!
19:19Here you go!
19:34İzlediğiniz için teşekkür ederim.
19:50There was nothing but messages of love and support.
19:53You know, the burden of a lifetime was lifted off his shoulders
19:57and he was free to be who he truly was.
20:15Even after he came out, he was still the favourite one
20:18and he was still the one that everyone wanted to marry
20:20even though they knew he was gay.
20:26Everything went well.
20:28The support's been amazing from all directions,
20:31male, female, young, old.
20:33At the end of the day, it's about giving hope to other people
20:37and I hope that I have done that, you know.
20:42It should be your own decision.
20:44And I know because the story got offered,
20:47it wasn't our own decision in the beginning.
20:50But the biggest gift we got was freedom.
20:54Freedom is such a beautiful thing, what we all deserve, you know.
20:59And in the end, we were not hiding a horrible secret.
21:03We were hiding love.
21:08Before we perform it, I'd just like to say a big thank you
21:11to everybody out there.
21:16For making Bylet Brest, our latest greatest hits album,
21:19number one!
21:23And today it's gone right back into the charts
21:25at number one again, so thank you very much
21:27to all you out there who got it once again.
21:31And also a big thank you for making this record
21:34our sixth, number one.
21:35This is Unuted Mayor.
21:40I mean, we were big for a minute.
21:42We did all right, you know.
21:46The six months after Steele came out,
21:48it was crazy.
21:49It was absolutely crazy.
21:51How are you? I'm Ro, and we're Boys Own.
21:53I'd like to say a big hello to all our fans in Southeast Asia.
21:56We're looking forward to seeing you soon.
21:57Your single would drop in the country that you weren't expecting.
21:59and go, holy God, right?
22:00It's just after breaking there.
22:01We've got to get the boys over there.
22:05I love you, all my love!
22:07Coming from where we came from,
22:09very humble beginnings,
22:11and all of a sudden being catapulted
22:13into this superstardom,
22:14travelling in private jets around the world,
22:17staying in five-star hotels.
22:18We filled in a lifetime of memories
22:21in six years.
22:22Once we conquered one country,
22:24we went to the next country,
22:26and we grew there.
22:28We're going under the tunnel
22:29over to the island of Hong Kong.
22:31Right now, we're underneath the water.
22:34I don't remember anybody really looking out for us,
22:37apart from Mark Plunkett.
22:39I was hired to look after them as tour manager.
22:43With the band, day in, day out,
22:45you know, 50 weeks of the year,
22:48you know, we saw everything together.
22:52Boys on at the Peak would be one of the biggest bands in the world.
22:55It really was like peaceful mania.
22:57I remember at one time,
22:59they literally shut the airport down.
23:00There were so many girls there.
23:01We just could not move.
23:03We just couldn't get them out of the airport
23:04for about half an hour.
23:05It was crazy.
23:07The engine was in full flow.
23:11Trips out to Southeast Asia and Australia,
23:14South America and Europe.
23:17It became nuts just the amount of travelling we did.
23:20You could see everyone was getting tired.
23:23The pressures of stardom,
23:25the pressures of touring,
23:26family pressures do start to take its toll.
23:29At some point, something goes bang.
23:3299 was probably the too big for our Boots tour.
23:35We'd lost the run of ourselves at this stage.
23:37This is it.
23:38We couldn't have got any bigger.
23:41As it got bigger,
23:42it became harder to keep them happy
23:45because they wanted more
23:46and they wanted more time off.
23:50At its peak is a grueling time.
23:53Gruuling time.
23:53There's no mercy whatsoever.
23:56We were all physically,
23:57mentally and emotionally exhausted.
24:00We hadn't more than three weeks off
24:01in six years.
24:02We were tired.
24:04We were tired.
24:05We were broken.
24:08Very excited about the release of me, lads.
24:10Yeah.
24:11See?
24:11Yay!
24:12Show them how excited.
24:13Yay!
24:16We had spent too much time together
24:18and with that comes difficulties,
24:22you know,
24:23relationship difficulties between us.
24:26You know,
24:27and maybe that was the start of cracks.
24:37What does Nick rhyme with?
24:39Crudick.
24:40Ah, that was a nice kid.
24:42What does Keith rhyme with?
24:45Dickhead.
24:48It's a difficult job being a manager.
24:50They all had egos
24:52and they all wanted
24:53to be more famous than they were.
24:55Ronan was the one I could depend on.
24:57I knew if I needed something done
24:59or if there was a gig somewhere
25:01that they didn't want to do,
25:02I knew he would talk them into doing it.
25:08I was the line of communication
25:10to the rest of the lads.
25:13I was willing to be up earlier than anyone else,
25:16to contact everybody,
25:18to make sure that the flights were booked,
25:20the taxis were booked,
25:21whatever it took.
25:22He was managing the group kind of with me,
25:25you know,
25:25he was making a lot of decisions.
25:27I was talking to him
25:28almost daily on the phone about everything.
25:31There was nothing I didn't talk to him about.
25:37But I knew it wasn't going to last forever, boys aren't.
25:40I knew the little girls that loved them
25:41were all grown up
25:43and they were going to find somebody else.
25:49You look great!
25:54I remember we were touring Southeast Asia.
25:58I used to get a bit homesick.
25:59We all did.
26:00and if you had too much to drink,
26:01you might get a bit teary-eyed
26:02and ring home and reminisce
26:04and have a little cry on the phone
26:05and, you know,
26:06your mum and dad would pick you up
26:07and put you back.
26:08And I was talking to my dad
26:10and my dad was always brutally honest
26:11and he said,
26:12I think your days are pretty much numbered, son.
26:14You better enjoy what you're doing.
26:16And I said,
26:16how do you mean, dad?
26:17He said,
26:17well, while you guys are over there,
26:19Louis Walsh is all over the papers
26:21putting auditions together for a new boy band.
26:23At the time,
26:24they were called IOU
26:26and then they changed their name to Westside
26:28and then ultimately to Westlife.
26:32I thought,
26:33how will I promote Westlife?
26:36And I said,
26:37we should get Ronan involved.
26:40We thought that's going to help
26:41with Boyzone fans.
26:43Louis brought Ronan in
26:44as 50% manager of Westlife
26:46while Boyzone was still together.
26:49You may have heard the band
26:50I'm in, it's Boyzone.
26:51I've had so much crack being in a band
26:53that have decided to manage my own band
26:54with Louis Walsh.
26:55So here they are.
26:57How you doing?
26:58I'm Brian.
26:59I'm Nicky.
27:00Hello, I'm Shane.
27:01Do you think the boys
27:02felt threatened by Westlife coming in
27:04and your attention to them?
27:05I think probably
27:07boys were a bit threatened
27:09when they heard Westlife sing
27:11and all that, yeah.
27:12But that's kind of natural.
27:30Westlife came as our support act
27:32on our arena tour.
27:34Whenever you have a support act,
27:36your agent will secure
27:37what's called a buy-on,
27:38which is a significant amount of money
27:40for us, for the band,
27:42from the record company
27:43of the support act.
27:44to get them on your stage.
27:45But Westlife never paid on.
27:47They get on for free,
27:48which was a significant amount
27:50of the money lost.
27:51And that was down to the fact
27:53that they were managed
27:54by Louis and Ronan.
27:55People were asking me
27:56to do things
27:59and some of the others
28:00weren't getting asked.
28:02And it definitely created
28:03a little bit of animosity.
28:04You could feel that.
28:05Welcome back to the last
28:07MTV Europe Music Awards
28:08of the millennium,
28:10where you can't get tickets
28:11for love nor money.
28:12Believe me,
28:12I was offered both
28:13on the way in.
28:14Anyway, I'm at the show
28:15and here to present the award
28:16for best hip-hop.
28:17I was pushing him
28:18to host Eurovision,
28:20to do MTV awards,
28:21to do anything
28:22that was going on TV.
28:23I was always pushing him.
28:25I knew he wouldn't let me down
28:26and I knew he would do
28:27a good job.
28:29Ladies and gentlemen,
28:30please welcome
28:30the lead singer
28:31of Boyzone,
28:32Ronan Keating.
28:37I had learned through the years
28:41how to read Ronan.
28:43He had a lot of big ideas.
28:45He always talked big.
28:48You could see
28:49this guy was breaking away.
28:50He was making new tracks.
28:53I was just surprised
28:54that nobody else
28:56could see that.
28:58yes,
28:59you know,
28:59I maximized
29:00an opportunity.
29:02I can get rid of these
29:02if you want.
29:04I wasn't embarrassed
29:05or feel guilty,
29:06you know,
29:07because I was the one
29:08who was going out
29:08doing all the work.
29:09So I worked hard
29:11and it paid off.
29:24Nothing at all
29:25was Ronan's
29:26first solo single.
29:28Notting Hill
29:28was massive.
29:29No matter who would sing it,
29:31that was going to be a hit.
29:32Add Ronan to the mix,
29:33it's going to be
29:34a massive hit.
29:34The smile on your face
29:36Let's me know
29:38That you need me
29:40There's a truth
29:41In your eyes
29:42Saying you'll never leave me
29:45The touch of you
29:47It's called
29:47When You Say Nothing At All.
29:48They ask me
29:49would I do it
29:49and I jump to the opportunity.
29:50I think it's a fantastic
29:51opportunity for me
29:53because it's my first solo record.
29:55Fingers crossed
29:56it goes well.
29:57You say it best
30:00When you say nothing at all
30:02I mean,
30:03it was incredible.
30:05It was an incredible moment.
30:06It was such a huge,
30:08massive record globally.
30:11It was just a catapult
30:12to go everywhere.
30:13We promoted that song
30:15all over the world.
30:16I got a taste for that
30:17on my own.
30:19It's euphoric,
30:20that feeling
30:20that you've had that success
30:22on your own.
30:24I think that's when
30:25realistically
30:25Polydor looked at that
30:27and thought,
30:28hang on a second,
30:29they saw more future
30:30in Ronan
30:31than they did in Boyzone.
30:32I can never explain
30:36what I hear
30:38when you don't say a thing
30:42He's on a bit of a solo buzz
30:44at the moment,
30:44you know,
30:45trying to get a bit
30:45of self-praise.
30:47There's a sound trip
30:48going on there,
30:48don't mind that.
30:49He'll land soon.
30:50He'll land soon.
30:51I think that was the first
30:55look at,
30:56ooh,
30:57how's this,
30:58how's this gonna work out?
31:11I think we were,
31:12I think it was a hard rock cafe
31:15and we all ended up
31:16in a bathroom
31:17and when we all ended up
31:18in a bathroom together
31:19it was because
31:19we were being overcrowded
31:20or we were being overcome
31:22by fans or people
31:23and we'd go in there
31:23to get away,
31:24to have a breather
31:26and we'd all look in the mirror
31:28and headbang
31:29like we're in a rock band.
31:30It was just something
31:30that we did
31:31and we'd laugh and scream
31:32and I suppose
31:33release some of the energy
31:35of the realisation
31:37of our success.
31:38It was like,
31:39ooh,
31:39you know,
31:40and it was that moment
31:41when Ronan had voiced
31:42the idea of possibly
31:44taking from Christmas off
31:45for a year.
31:48Ronan simply said,
31:49we're gonna take a break.
31:51I was shocked.
31:52But that sounded okay to me.
31:54I needed a break.
31:56For me,
31:57it was music to my ears
31:59because I had had enough.
32:02I just wanted out,
32:04you know?
32:04I think it was more of a shock
32:06to me than anybody else.
32:07I do remember feeling,
32:08you know,
32:09I'm loving this.
32:10This is great.
32:11This is, you know,
32:11I'm 26 years of age.
32:12I'm a pop star.
32:13Traveling around the world,
32:15you know,
32:16I'm providing a great future
32:17for myself and my family.
32:19I didn't,
32:19I didn't want to break up.
32:22Nobody wanted to break up,
32:24but everybody wanted a break.
32:26It was,
32:26it's liberating.
32:29Scary, fine,
32:30but it was liberating.
32:31Everyone was ready for a break
32:32just because they were so tired.
32:34But then I think,
32:35you know,
32:36certain people knew exactly
32:38what they were going to do.
32:39Others weren't quite as sure,
32:40so I guess they'd be a bit more
32:42tentative,
32:43a bit more concerned.
32:44We decided that we will fulfill
32:46our obligations in our diary
32:48until the end of that year.
32:51We did a whole millennium tour,
32:53so there were shows
32:54across the UK and Europe.
32:56They were massive, those shows.
33:01Dublin!
33:04Good evening.
33:06Welcome to the last night
33:07of the Boys Down Tour.
33:09At the end of the tour,
33:10we played back home
33:11in the pointe at bone.
33:12Let's try and make a one,
33:13to remember.
33:15And there was nine nights in a row
33:17and they put a plaque on the wall
33:19outside the venue
33:21commemorating our success
33:22and there was a plaque beside us
33:23that would belong to U2
33:25who had done seven or eight nights
33:26and we'd beaten their rock hard.
33:39That probably was the pinnacle
33:40of our career.
33:43Why would I want to give that up?
34:13Thank you so much for the last six years.
34:14It's stronger
34:15than it's ever been before.
34:19Good luck, God bless you.
34:29I was just looking forward to a break from it all
34:33and to get home and spend time with my daughter more.
34:36What's the best bit, Stephen, for you?
34:39It was all the best bit.
34:40It's kind of the best bit for her.
34:42It's just all great.
34:44I don't think I could ever give up the business.
34:46I love it so much.
34:47The same with the rest of the guys.
34:49I love it.
34:51I love it.
34:52I love it.
34:55I don't know.
34:56Still on a bit of a high, to be honest.
34:57I think tomorrow will tell all
34:59and then cry me eyes in.
35:02It's good later.
35:02Well done.
35:04Thanks, everyone.
35:06You know, it was tough.
35:07It was tough leaving the band.
35:08Thank you.
35:09There was a sense of guilt
35:12but excitement for me as well.
35:18I had zero problem
35:19with him actually going on to do his own album.
35:22I think there was probably a fear
35:24that he would never come back.
35:27And if that happens,
35:28what am I going to do with my life?
35:37Now, you might recognize this next club.
35:39He's usually got other boys with him
35:41but he's now on his own.
35:42Yes, of course,
35:43it's the wonderful Stephen Gatley.
35:58The boys and guys taking a break
36:00and Stephen thought
36:01the attention is there.
36:02I need to continue my success.
36:05He loved being on stage
36:06and performing and stuff
36:08so he made a solo album.
36:15Well, he was very positive
36:17about his solo album.
36:19He loved being able
36:20to put his own input,
36:21you know, his own songs
36:22and writing his own songs.
36:24He was absolutely delighted with it.
36:28I'm just out doing my own album
36:29hoping for the best,
36:31hoping that it's going to be a success.
36:33I've worked very hard on this album.
36:35I spent a lot of time on it,
36:37spent a lot of thought
36:38and I wrote most of the songs myself
36:40and I've been heavily involved.
36:42After being in Boyzone,
36:43I mean, there's so many hits.
36:45so the pressure was on.
36:46I classed myself
36:47as one of the luckiest persons around,
36:49you know.
36:50But the soul of success,
36:51everybody sort of expected to happen,
36:53didn't get as big
36:55as people hoped for.
37:01He thought his childhood dream was over.
37:07It was difficult for Stephen
37:09and you saw his mood change.
37:13I always describe Stephen
37:16as a little angel,
37:19but the angel wasn't happy anymore
37:21and it was just too difficult
37:25to be together.
37:27So we broke up.
37:30I was heartbroken
37:33and he was heartbroken as well.
37:38It was not that there was no love anymore.
37:40I mean,
37:42I still love him now,
37:44but sometimes it's just not possible
37:46to be together.
37:51Our next guest remembers
37:52one of the most famous
37:53and prolific bands
37:54of the last decade.
37:54They've taken a break
37:55from the band to team up
37:56with their own duet
37:57and they're here to tell us more.
37:58Would you please welcome
37:59two old mates to the show.
38:00They are
38:01Shane Lynch and Keith Duffy,
38:02ladies and gentlemen.
38:08We have got a clip
38:10of your brand new single.
38:11Let's have a look.
38:11Yes!
38:24We're all doing solo projects
38:26trying to re-establish
38:29our identities as individuals.
38:32If you want or if I want you
38:37Is it time to say goodbye
38:42I did release some music.
38:45The record company were like,
38:48oh, that's great.
38:49Thanks very much.
38:50We'll have a look at that.
38:51All right.
38:52What about you and boys only?
38:54Are you doing anything else together?
38:56It was really a case of
38:57once the band was over,
38:59so were you, you know?
39:04We went from going three countries
39:07sometimes in one day
39:10to going nowhere
39:12and no cars turning up,
39:14nobody knocking on the door.
39:15A free man
39:17but actually felt more jailed than ever
39:21because he didn't have to be anywhere.
39:22He didn't go anywhere.
39:23I didn't go anywhere for months.
39:26I stopped socializing.
39:28I pretty much hid myself away.
39:33For me, I wasn't sure where I was going.
39:36I felt at the time
39:38that I was kind of left in the desert
39:41to die a tourist
39:43because I didn't know what way to go.
39:47I couldn't look after them all.
39:50I had to pick who I wanted to work with
39:52and I picked Ron Keating
39:54because I just knew
39:55he ticked all the boxes.
39:57He works hard
39:57and I knew he had something special.
40:16Louis had vision.
40:18He had songs.
40:18He had melodies.
40:19He had ideas.
40:20I looked up to him.
40:22I was picking songs.
40:23He was singing them.
40:24We were having hits.
40:25It all worked.
40:43The juggernaut that was my solo career at the time
40:46was so big and moving so fast.
40:49It was almost like a next level
40:51that I had never witnessed before.
40:54What I'm meeting now,
40:55I'm here with a single,
40:56hopefully to challenge
40:57the number one spot tomorrow,
40:59Ronan Keating
40:59and Loving Each Day.
41:01Ronan Keating.
41:04The chart successes,
41:05the respect,
41:06the kudos,
41:06the people are praising you
41:08and all that.
41:08It's just overwhelming.
41:10It's incredible.
41:11Yeah, we're loving each day
41:12and there's a special answer
41:13and there's an all day
41:14and I'm in the last room, baby.
41:17I need you here.
41:19I was having more fun,
41:21more freedom.
41:22It's the best move I made
41:23I could have made.
41:24Absolutely.
41:34Good to see you again.
41:35You too.
41:36It's been a year.
41:36Indeed it's nice.
41:37And a lot's happened in that time.
41:39Plenty, yeah.
41:39Solo career?
41:40Yeah, thank God.
41:41Yeah.
41:44And what about Boys Zone?
41:46You know, a lot has gone on.
41:47I haven't talked to the guys
41:48in quite a while.
41:50So, to be really honest,
41:51I don't think anything's going to happen
41:53with the band.
41:54You and the group have split that.
41:55You know, I don't, I don't,
41:56I can't see it coming back together
41:57by no, by no fault of mine.
41:59What would, well,
42:00whose fault would it be?
42:01Well, you know,
42:02we all made a commitment.
42:04There's word coming through Louie.
42:06You know, the band want to get back together.
42:09And the guys are going,
42:10are you coming back?
42:10Are we making a record?
42:11What's going on?
42:12And me being sheepish about it
42:16and me being childish about it
42:17and me being scared,
42:20I just back away.
42:23I just back away from the lads
42:25and I back away from the commitment
42:27in the band.
42:31And I'm chicken shit.
42:32What do I do?
42:33I ignore the guys.
42:34I ignore them.
42:37Unfortunately, Rowan is happy enough
42:39without his friends from Boys Zone.
42:41and that's something
42:42I can't understand, you know.
42:43I know Rowan enough Boys Zone.
42:45I don't know the Rowan enough today.
42:46I really don't.
42:48I was probably a little bit envious
42:49and lost.
42:51A friendship fell apart
42:53and I kind of felt left behind.
42:56Rowan was being very successful.
42:58He was selling a lot of records.
43:00He was making Polo a lot of money
43:01and they weren't going to let that stop.
43:03You can't blame him for that.
43:05It wasn't until a good year
43:09into that break
43:10and the realisation came
43:12that, oh shit, this is over
43:14and we ain't coming back.
43:26I got a phone call
43:27from Rowan
43:28telling me that Stephen was dead.
43:31and I said Stephen who?
43:34What do you mean?
43:36No, no, not our Stephen.
43:40so,
44:06so,
