MCFLY ARE PROBABLY THE BEST BAND IN THE WORLD. WHAT DO YOU RECKON????
McFly
"Pleasant Modern Rock Based Pop With Retro Influences"
“I remember when Tom first wrote ‘All About You’,” Danny continues. “The rest of us were all downstairs watching TV, but all we could hear was this sound coming from Tom’s room. These backing vocals going ‘Bo, bo bo, bo bo, bo bo…’ That is all we heard, and we were just sat there going, ‘What the hell is that?’.” The rest of the lads found out pretty quickly: ‘All About You’ builds on the sophisticated style of early McFly songs like ‘Obviously’, further refining what are already emerging as hallmark McFly songwriting qualities. The version you’ll hear was recorded not in Tom’s bedroom but the more prestigious environs of Abbey Road studios, and comes with backing from a full 60-piece orchestra. The ‘All About You’ video finds the band on top comedy form. “We’ve got Graham Norton, Kate Thornton, Harry Hill, Davina, Johnny Vegas, Ruby Wax, some guy from some… Er, an actor…” said Danny. Once you see the video, with its countless cameos, you’ll understand why Danny’s having trouble keeping track of them all. On the flipside of the new single, ‘You’ve Got A Friend’ is an inspired Carole King cover. The song was never a hit single for King, but shot to fame after featuring on her 1971 album ‘Tapestry’ and has since become a classic. It’s even been covered by a handful of acts in the past. “I’m actually more familiar with the James Taylor version,” Danny explains. “His recording was just with an acoustic guitar with some bongos thrown in – it was quite chilled out once again and that’s the vibe we’ve gone for on our own version.”...more...info at: www.mcflyofficial.com/theband

Wembley Arena, about 2 years ago
The McFly boys certainly know how to host a top pop party with some of their greatest hits, album tracks and interesting versions of other people's songs. The frantic guitar riffs of Please Please and I Wanna Hold You really lifted the crowd and the boys' vocals did an impressive job of drowning out the screaming fans. It was back to the 1980s for some well-chosen cover versions which suited the McFly sound - Ghostbusters, featuring clips from the film of the same name, and (You Gotta) Fight For Your Right (To Party) went down a storm!
