( April 2014 ) Said and Done ( 1993 -- 1995 ) In 1993, an advertisement appeared in many Irish newspapers calling for auditions to form a new Irish `` boy band '' group. The advertisements were sent out by theatrical manager Walsh who was looking to make an `` Irish Take That '' following on from their success. The auditions were held in The Ormond Center, in Dublin, in November 1993. More than 300 people replied to the advertisement. At the auditions the applicants were asked to sing the song `` Careless Whisper '' by George Michael. Each audition would be taped and watched again to judge the applicant 's performance. Out of the 300, 50 were selected for a second audition. For the second audition the applicants where asked to sing two songs, including one of their own choice with a backing tape. Mikey Graham sang `` Two Out of Three Ai n't Bad '' by Meat Loaf, Keith Duffy sang `` I 'm Too Sexy '' by Right Said Fred, Ronan Keating sang `` Father and Son '' by Cat Stevens ( a cover version of which the band would later release ), and Stephen Gately sang `` Hello '' by Lionel Richie. Out of this 50, 10 were selected for a third audition. In the end, Keating, Gately, Duffy, Richard Rock ( son of Dickie Rock ), Shane Lynch and Mark Walton were chosen. Graham originally was rejected but would later join after the departure of Rock, who left citing musical differences with Ronan Keating. Keating initially faced opposition from his parents and teachers. He was planning to move to New York to study in college on a sports scholarship and pursue his dream to win an Olympic medal for athletics. In the end Ronan decided to give up his education and go along with Boyzone. Duffy 's parents were against their son throwing away a solid and promising career and joining the band. Louis Walsh set about trying to get a deal with a good record company but it would take many rejection letters before they would be signed. In 1994 Lynch and Duffy were involved in a car crash ; both survived without serious injuries. Walsh was reportedly furious, and drew up contracts for all the bandmembers to sign, leading to their activities being restricted. With some of the original lineup leaving and others being brought into the group, it took some time before Boyzone settled down into its most recognisable five - member line - up of Shane Lynch, Ronan Keating, Stephen Gately, Mikey Graham and Keith Duffy. Boyzone played through 1994 in pubs and clubs all over Northern Ireland before Polygram signed them up in 1994 and released the cover version of the Four Seasons ' hit `` Working My Way Back to You '', featuring Graham and Gately on lead vocals. It reached No. 3 in the Irish Charts. The release of their cover version of the classic Osmonds ' hit, `` Love Me for a Reason '', broke into the British charts. The song hit No. 2 in the UK and was included in their 1995 hit debut album Said and Done. The album reached the No. 1 spot in Ireland and the UK. In 1995, the singles `` Key to My Life '', `` So Good '' and `` Father and Son '' were released, which all got the attention of new fans in Europe. A Different Beat ( 1996 -- 1997 ) Their second album, A Different Beat, was released in 1996. It was the album that would bring the band worldwide success, and sold 2 million copies worldwide. The song `` Coming Home Now '' was released as a single. Boyzone had their first UK No. 1 single, a cover of the Bee Gees ' hit `` Words ''. The album also contained the hit singles `` A Different Beat '' and `` Is n't It a Wonder ''. In 1997, Boyzone released three singles : `` Is n't It a Wonder '', `` Picture of You '', and `` Baby Can I Hold You / Shooting Star ''. The group performed at the Eurovision Song Contest and performed `` Let the message run free '' and tried to break the US market with their version of `` Mystical Experience '', which they also recorded in Spanish. Ronan Keating -- who by now had emerged as the lead singer and frontman -- won the Ivor Novello Award for songwriting in 1997 for `` Picture of You ''. Where we Belong ( 1998 ) Their third studio album, Where We Belong, was released in 1998 and featured Boyzone 's writing abilities ; the album sold over 3 million copies worldwide. It contained the hit singles `` All That I Need '' ( which stayed for six weeks in the MTV Asia charts ), `` Baby Can I Hold You '' ( Tracy Chapman cover ) and `` No Matter What ''. Originally written for the Andrew Lloyd Webber stage musical Whistle Down the Wind, `` No Matter What '' was the group 's best ever selling single selling over 4 million copies worldwide and it is the biggest selling record for a boy band, it was also voted Song of the Year, 1998. Since the song was also recorded by Meat Loaf, Boyzone shared the stage with him to perform the song during his 1998 live concert in Dublin. They also sang the song in Italy with Luciano Pavarotti. Their 1998 tour of Ireland broke all sales records when 35,000 tickets were sold out in four hours. By Request and break ( 1999 -- 2000 ) In 1999, `` When the Going Gets Tough '', `` You Needed Me '' and `` Every Day I Love You '' were singles released which were worldwide hits. As well as their greatest hits compilation By Request -- the highest - selling Boyzone album, having sold over 4 million copies worldwide -- a tour followed from May -- July 1999 in Ireland, the UK and Europe. In June 1999, Stephen Gately revealed that he was gay and was in love with the ex-Caught in the Act member Eloy de Jong. Also during this year Keating released his first solo single, `` When You Say Nothing at All '', an Alison Krauss song which he had recorded for the movie Notting Hill. In November 1999, after six years together and amid growing tensions behind the scenes, the group members decided to take some time off from Boyzone to pursue solo projects. Boyzone performed together for the last time in Ireland at the point depot during nine dates running from 3 -- 8 January and 10 -- 12 January 2000, they had sold more than 20 million records in total and all 16 of their singles reached the UK top five and they became the first Irish act to have four No. 1 hits in the United Kingdom charts. At their height, Boyzone were one of the biggest - selling artists in music. Hiatus ( 2001 -- 2007 ) For seven years after their split, the members had mixed success in their individual careers. Keating in particular remained a force in the music industry as he continued writing and managing other bands. Gately also continued his career as a solo artist, appearing in a number of West End stage musicals, and Duffy had some success as an actor, including a role in the UK television soap Coronation Street. Rumours came to a head and in early 2007 there were news reports that all five members and their manager, The X Factor judge Walsh, had met in Dublin to discuss and organise a comeback tour. On 11 October 2007, Walsh was interviewed on The Graham Norton Show ; when asked by Norton whether there was going to be a re-launch of Boyzone he replied `` I think so ''. On 5 November 2007, Keating confirmed that Boyzone would reunite for a special appearance on the BBC 's annual fundraiser, Children in Need, performing a medley of hits, although had not yet commented on the possibility of a new tour or album. On 14 November 2007, it was reported that all five members of Boyzone were to begin a UK tour in May, which would be their first in seven years. Keating, who left the group to pursue a solo career, joined them for the series of concerts. On 16 November, Boyzone made a comeback appearance as part of Children in Need on BBC1 in the UK, with an Irish and UK tour announced for June 2008. Back again... No. Matter What tour and Gately 's death ( 2008 -- 2009 ) The group sold 200,000 tickets for the tour within three hours and sold 20,000 tickets on the first day of them going on sale for their concert in the RDS Dublin. Keating told the Daily Star : `` We 've been taking it easy on the Guinness and been out for dinners and just a couple of drinks. We 're taking the tour plans very seriously. We 're all on diets and we 've been training in the gym every day. I 'm probably the fittest now that I 've ever been. I think we all look better now than before. I ca n't wait to be back on the road and all the guys feel the same.
