October 29, 200816 yr Author I dunno how I feel about them doing another cover. But charity I suppose. A surprise of their good ol' friend Rod jumping on stage on the night, perhaps?
October 30, 200816 yr I dunno how I feel about them doing another cover. But charity I suppose. A surprise of their good ol' friend Rod jumping on stage on the night, perhaps? its possible mindyou i see him being special guest at their wembley area gig just like they did with Brian may on their Arena Tour in 2006 Edited October 30, 200816 yr by itsme123
October 30, 200816 yr I don't hate them that much anymore but still the whole CIN thing is just a joke these days :lol: I haven't taken it seriously since S Club 7 did it. The Spice Girls one was horrendous which is a shame as I love that band. The others have just been plain embarassing. Only one since 'Have You Ever' thats even been half decent is 'I'll Stand By You' but hat was just an exact replica of the original except with Girls Aloud singing it. :/ I will reserve my opinion on totally trashing McFly and their horrible back catalogue and desperate acts of conning people out of money however until I hear the songs B)
October 31, 200816 yr "no-sellers" - are you sure your talking about the right band? I'm very sure, yes darling. :)

The CD will be out everywhere but the DVD will be onsale at HMV Only DO YA http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=t7FGosW0HvM I got given the full Radio:Active album as a gift and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by some of the songs on it...not typical Mcfly at all...I was really hoping they might release one of the maturer songs, for example I adore POV, and Down Goes Another One. But no they release the one song that is just gonna reinforce the hate towards them and it sounds like they haven't moved on from Five Colours In Her Hair days, I know its for CIN but it really does them no favours -_- A shame because there are some genuinely quite great songs on Radio Active that might surprise a few people

November 11, 200816 yr STAY WITH ME (fast forward to 3:30) http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=NEVd-hZdyAI DO YA (taken from Radio:ACTIVE album) http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=t7FGosW0HvM All though Do Ya is the worst song and one of the only real old mcfly sounding songs i think they picked the right one for CIN The Videos will be shown this weekend and Mcfly will perform both tracks LIVE on Children in need Download 23rd nov cd 24th Edited November 11, 200816 yr by itsme123
November 11, 200816 yr I've just heard "Do Ya" and I just can't believe how rubbish it is :o Do Ya is 1 of 3 song's on their new album thats not so muture and that sounds like pasy Mcfly songs all their other songs eg POV,Down goes another one,The last song sound nothing like Mcfly what so ever Do Ya is a fun song and kinda easy to learn think thats why they decided to release it for CIN Edited November 11, 200816 yr by itsme123
November 26, 200816 yr OMG OMG !! McFly won't even be top10 with their CIN single by the end of the week ! :o :o Is this the end for them ? Looks like their fanbase isn't big enough anymore to even ensure a top10 placing :dance:
November 27, 200816 yr Author OMG OMG !! McFly won't even be top10 with their CIN single by the end of the week ! :o :o Is this the end for them ? Looks like their fanbase isn't big enough anymore to even ensure a top10 placing :dance: Taking into consideration the free album and the re-release album both having the track on and the fact they on a huge arena tour at the moment, it means far from. They're not going anywhere yet. Do Ya is one of the weakest tracks on the enw album, including One For The Radio. There are far better tracks, better than even Lies, that would make top 10 and will hopefully be released next.
November 27, 200816 yr I'm surprised Stay With Me and I Kissed A Girl didn't tempt the fans that already have Do Ya...I honestly can't see them ever having another UK No.1...
November 27, 200816 yr Taking into consideration the free album and the re-release album both having the track on and the fact they on a huge arena tour at the moment, it means far from. Were BOTH tracks on the free album ? I thought they re released it with those exclusive songs.
November 27, 200816 yr :nocheer: Oh dear McFly, what went wrong? :( I used to be a fan (I really liked their first 2 albums) but then I grew up! :( Kids nowadays aren't interested in you anymore, they're too interested in stuff like N Dubz (Kiddy Chave Music IMO) :heehee:
