The discography of Boyzone, an Irish boy band, consists of four studio albums, five compilation albums, one singles box set, nineteen singles and ten video albums.
The band released its debut single, a cover version of the Four Seasons' hit "Working My Way Back to You", in 1994 featuring Graham and Gately on lead vocals and it reached number three in the Irish Singles Chart. The release of their second single and cover version of the classic Osmonds' hit, "Love Me for a Reason", broke 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. Boyzone's second album - A Different Beat - was released in 1996 and contained its first UK number one single, a cover of the Bee Gees' hit "Words". The album also contained the hit singles "A Different Beat" and "Isn't It a Wonder". Their third studio album, Where We Belong, was released in 1998 contained the hit singles "All That I Need", "Baby Can I Hold You" and "No Matter What", the group's best ever selling single. In 1999, their greatest hits compilation, By Request, was released. The band then went on hiatus whilst all the members pursued solo projects. In September 2008 ,the band returned with "Love You Anyway" which peaked at number five in the UK, making it their seventeenth consecutive top five single.
On 10 October 2009, band member Stephen Gately died while on his holiday in Majorca, Spain. Before Gately's death, Boyzone had been writing and recording a new album and despite rumours of them cancelling the new album Ronan Keating has denied these allegations and revealed that the band will release a new album as a tribute to Gately in 2010 which will include two new songs that were sung by him before his death.
