"Hey Whatever" is a song by Irish boy band Westlife. It was released on 15 September 2003 as the lead single from their fourth studio album, Turnaround (2003). The song is a re-written version of "Rainbow Zephyr", a popular song by Northern Irish rock band Relish.[1] Released on 15 September 2003, the song peaked at number four on the UK Singles Chart.

In Westlife - Our Story, the band said they pushed for "Hey Whatever" to be released as the lead single despite Simon Cowell telling them they did not have a hit. The song became one of Westlife's lowest-charting singles and was their first not to sell more than 100,000 copies at the time, selling just under 80,000.[2]
