Song |
"Love is a Hurricane" is a song performed by Irish group Boyzone. It was the second single to be released from their fourth studio album, Brother, on 17 May 2010.[2] It will be the first single without bandmate Stephen Gately, who died last year. After debuting the track on their ITV1 show Boyzone: A Tribute To Stephen Gately, the reaction from fans made the choice of the second single an easy decision. An upbeat, feel good, infectious pop anthem; Love Is A Hurricane was written by New Radicals front man, Gregg Alexander who has previously written for Ronan’s solo albums as well as other artists.[3]
