Westlife want to showcase their new album on a TV programme scheduled just before X Factor to help boost record sales.
The 'Flying Without Wings' boyband reportedly believe that by previewing new tracks around the popular ITV reality show they will be helped in achieving a hit with new single 'Home'.
A source told The Sun: "It will be a Saturday night type of show so it’d be great to run it before the semi-final or final of X Factor as the ratings have been so good."
'Home' was given its first broadcast on the X Factor as the backing music to one of the audition shows.

WESTLIFE and their pal SIMON COWELL are hoping the group’s comeback album will get a boost from The X Factor.
It’s been nearly a year since the band’s last chart hit, and new single Home is out in October, followed by the new album.
Home’s first airing was as background music during The X Factor auditions and the lads hope a programme showcasing the new album’s tracks will be screened just before the ITV talent show to boost sales.
A source said: “It will be a Saturday night type of show so it’d be great to run it before the semi-final or final of X Factor as the ratings have been so good.”
Home is going to need a boost as it will be released around the same time as tracks from other big-hitters including KYLIE, BRITNEY and possibly MADONNA.

Wonder why the new album doesn't have a name yet?
