From England to Australia, passed by Japan and Sweden, Boyzone is the most popular boyband in the world. And by far! Upon the release of "Picture of You" the single off the soundtrack of Mr Bean the movie (with the very famous english comedian), Steve, Ronan, Keith, Mikey and Shane talks to us about their new life in the heart of the group and their fans ...

Ronan: "We love our fans more than anything"

Ronan: "I really miss my social life and the time I spend with my friends... It's completely crazy, we don't even have time to go out with our pals. But I'm not complaining. To be in a group was my greatest dream."

Keith: "I make compromises in my spinning schedule. I also had a girlfriend, but I had to leave her when I realized that I don't have time to see her anymore. As for my parents and friends, I think about them less and less. But that doesn't bother me more than that."

Mickey: "I walk on air when I'm on stage with the others before a state of frenzy. And so, I have the right to be treated like a king. But I'm aware that this will not last forever."

Steven: "It's amusing to watch all these girls camping in front of my door everyday in Dublin. Some of them come from afar, sometimes from abroad. One time, my mother gave a pair of old jeans to a girl who travelled 4000 km just to see me. She was delighted, but I became crazy when I knew about it because I held on to it very much!"

Mickey: "When I go home to Dublin I often lock myself up in there. I often stay alone in my bedroom, to listen to music or to write some songs. There are always a lot of girls in front of our house, and recently, I had to take home 2 because it was raining very hard."

Shane: "At the beginning, I spent sometime locked up in the hotel room in anguish coz I was far away from home, or annoying the other 4 coz I felt lonely. I think I have matured a lot and I feel rather happy! "

Ronan: "Our 2nd album proved to the world that we are not a bubblegum group and that we have matured a lot artistically. This year, I also decided to improve my hygiene, to do less partying, to sleep early, to eat soundly, and to take care of my voice. It's a precious tool of my work!"

Steven: The money I earn is actualy used to "spoil" my family. I'm currently looking for a villa to find a new home for my parents in Dublin. I really owe them that if it would only be to thank them for their support in whatever I undertook!

Keith: "This year is memorable for the birth of my son, Jordan. I even brought him along during tours together with his mother, Lisa, when he was only 2 weeks old. To be on stage and to know that my fiancée and son are in the room, it's really the signal!"

Shane: When we started, we didn't have money to buy designer clothes for ourselves and we didn't know how we should "look." We simply carried what we had on our hands. Afterwards, we earned enough money, and it's true that it changes a lot of things. We bought cars (mine is a blue Porsche), a heap of clothes, etc... But that doesn't mean that we forgot where we came from.

Ronan: We don't have any intention of changing our image radically in the future ... showing our pectorals or being like dredgers is not our style. It's us who would like to show before all, that our music evolves and that we are capable to do things of a quality that lots of people weren't able to suspect at our debut!

Shane: No, no one among us is going out with one of the girls of Eternal. If the fans know that we are going out with them, or with this girl, it will shatter a bit of their dream. They say <<I could never go out with him! How am I going to compete with the girls of Eternal?>> Our fans should know that we love them above all!

P.S. Sorry for the awful translation!
