"I even threw in a reference from one of my favorite characters from Toy Story, Buzz Lightyear, as a way of reaching out to my younger audience. And then I added, eating fondu, for my older audience. It's the eighth best song on the album." "Barrowman." I love how they think of him cause it is something he would do :)
the amount of times i replayed Tom snorting...let's just say it would have been faster to watch the video twice. I haven't laughed that hard in 5-EVER! Crying and everything, holy shit.
singing with instruments make them even more better than others and make them more independent cos they dont need other bands to help them on concerts, them writing their own songs show that they are even better cos the songs become more personal to them and better for us 2 hear
McFly have been around longer than One Direction, therefore, McFly is better. Not an opinion, it's a fact. If you don't agree, cry me a river, build a bridge and get over it.
A boy and is someone like One Direction and JLS, people who make manufactured pop music, often don't write their own songs and don't play instruments, just dance on stage. McFly are a band, simple.
Clearly what I mean there, is that they're a band. Being in a boyband usually means singing without instruments and getting other people to write songs for them. Whereas McFly sing, play their own instruments, write their own songs and produce their own songs.
It's funny as well because in the book they're promoting there was a whole paragraph about how they hated people asking them what their favourite ice-cream flavours were... hahahaha :) xxx
They've had over 35 months in the industry... I know, its quite a while. But if you're going to compare them to McFly, then experience is the only thing in it. I'm a massive fan of both but I personally can tell from McFly's writing abilities and musical style that they have really developed over time, and I hope that One Direction will continue to do so too!
Because now days when someone says a boyband they mean a group of boys who sing. McFly however play all there own instruments, write their own songs and actually have helped BOYBANDS like one direction because they can't write their own songs...
mcfly is at its own place, 1d at its own. no band is worst or immature, just my taste is mcfly and thats a fact mcfly are in this industry for more than 10 years and are more mature in this field than 1d. just my opinion.
I agree it doesn't make mcfly better, it all depends on your taste in music. I listen to both bands. I am saying you cannot compare them. They're styles are different but they are both good. I'm glad Tom doesn't hold back on his skills just because it's not their usual style, but rather puts them to use somewhere else. I also agree with you that mcfly has more experience. I figure if they can sing without autotune they all deserve some level of respect.
those who dont like mcfly, dont listen to them, ok? they are the best! i remember to those directiones that they dont like mcfly, tom wrote some songs for them, and those are fantastic songs! mcfly plays instruments like one direction and they sing really well too, so both are incredible! that's it.
That doesn't mean McFly are any better, they just have an incredibly talented writer (as well as front-man, Danny) who was kind enough to write for a fellow band. It just goes to show that McFly care for One Direction and, as you seem like such a fan, you should too.
depends on your definition of boy band. Yes they are all males but boy bands are the ones that don't write their one songs or play their one instruments, like 1d, they just perform--sing songs
yes but still... McFly have been writting their own songs since before the whole band was even formed - and when they started they were all about 15-18
YOU CANNOT COMPARE THEM. McFly have been in the industry for 10 YEARS, are are therefore more experienced - you can hear the maturity in their music. One Direction have been judged by their very first songs, their looks, their personalities, religions etc in their first 3 YEARS in the industry. Who says they won't progress to become as amazing musicians as McFly? This is only the start for them, so give them a chance!
actually, Mcfly wrote all their songs, but they wrote a few with other bands, who they happened to know ..they were never given songs to record. And from the start they auditioned for a drummer, bassist etc...1D are good, but they don't play their own stuff...niall playing guitar is not the same as the level McFLY play instruments on.
Boyband is a band formed by boys completely so, in fact, they are a boyband. And yes, The Beatles were the first group considered as a boyband. You're welcome and stop hating ;)
Hmmmm I think they've already been GIVEN a chance. A multi-million pound chance and hundreds of thousands of ready-made fans... for a group of boys who haven't been in the industry long they have done well haven't they? I don't think we should pity them too much....
not exactly. they just use their connections with busted to promote themselves. tom and danny had already written songs before even harry and dougie had joined in
To be fair, he can play guitar, but he doesn't very often. Where as McFly play instruments all the time. One Direction aren't just as good as McFly, they're in two completely different genres of music, they cannot be compared. One group are completely self-sufficient, whereas the other rely on their record to get their songs written and composed.
Don't you get it?? Boyband has another definition... A boyband is a band with only boys, but not every band with only boys is a boyband... A boyband often don't write their own songs, don't play any instruments and dance at a performance... McFly write their own songs, they all play instruments and don't dance while they are performing....
He may do, but for the most part, One Direction don't play instruments on a regular basis, McFly on the other hand, do. Which adds to why One Direction are a boyband and McFly are a band. Just because McFly are males in a band, it doesn't automatically make them a boyband - you wouldn't call The Beatles a boyband, would you? Same thing with McFly.
A boyband rarely writes their own songs or plays instruments. Most of them do choreographed dances. Think Backstreet Boys, NSYNC, Big Time Rush, One Direction etc. Some of their "live" performances are lip synced. That sort of thing.
I genuinely cannot believe what i am reading here, why are people comparing McFly to one direction? even if i was a one direction fan I would still admit that Mcfly are WAY more talented than them, for obvious reasons, To the one direction fans who are saying One Direction are better, do your research and you will realise you are really wrong, its not an opinion its a fact.
So What your saying is McFly are better! They have true talent and can write there own songs! So If there not a boy band what are they!?! A giraffe!??!
A boy band (or boyband) is loosely defined as a vocal group consisting of young male singers. Usually they are in their teenage years or in their twenties at the time of formation. Being vocal groups, most boy band members do not play musical instruments, either in recording sessions or on stage, making the term somewhat of a misnomer. However, exceptions do exist. Most boy bands dance as well as sing, usually giving highly choreographed performances.....McFly is not a BoyBand!
1:30 Dougie's laughter is adorable!
Danny's face when she said 'ice creeeeaammmmm!!!' He was like 'righhhhtttttt...........' 😳😂😂😂
Dayum, Danny looks good in this!
Omg, the way Tom is sitting all proper and stuff just kills me!:)
"I even threw in a reference from one of my favorite characters from Toy Story, Buzz Lightyear, as a way of reaching out to my younger audience. And then I added, eating fondu, for my older audience. It's the eighth best song on the album."
"Barrowman."
I love how they think of him cause it is something he would do :)
mcfly:(serious faces) interviewer: what is your favorite flavor of ice cream ? mcfly: hahahahahahhahahah
What's your favourite ice cream?
Most people: "chocolate" "vanilla"
Them: "turkish delight" "pistachio"
Mint Chocolate Ice-cream, yes Danny👏😂💕
Danny though😍😍
the amount of times i replayed Tom snorting...let's just say it would have been faster to watch the video twice. I haven't laughed that hard in 5-EVER! Crying and everything, holy shit.
They're so handsooommeee
the title makes no sense, they don't have to prove anything, they're AMAZING
Aww this whole interview I just wanted to poke Danny's cheek to make him smile.
Glad they're in back and in better form now, this was such a weird, harry and Danny would bicker in every interview and Danny would never speak
BAHAHA. "Cliff Richard"...oh Danny..
I had kinder egg ice-cream when i was in Italy. Amazing!
THEY ARE THE BEST BAND EVER! GD till the end!
'yeah its a crap book... not competition... sorry if you represent Olly...' LMAO xD this is a great interviewer! ha
I saw them in concert is Tom carries sister????
Ben & Jerry's coffee flavour ice cream is the nicest thing ever!!!
singing with instruments make them even more better than others and make them more independent cos they dont need other bands to help them on concerts, them writing their own songs show that they are even better cos the songs become more personal to them and better for us 2 hear
i totally agree. i love one direction so much but i love mcfly as well and they are completely different,,,
McFly have been around longer than One Direction, therefore, McFly is better. Not an opinion, it's a fact. If you don't agree, cry me a river, build a bridge and get over it.
exactly
I'm a Mcfly fan myself but being around longer doesn't make you better than someone else.
natisinvisible I'll have you know that one direction split up
What are they?
A boy and is someone like One Direction and JLS, people who make manufactured pop music, often don't write their own songs and don't play instruments, just dance on stage. McFly are a band, simple.
omg i was litterally thinking when that woman asked the question 'ooo mine is rose turkish delight' then tom said that whaaaaa
Danny we have the same fav ice cream!
Clearly what I mean there, is that they're a band. Being in a boyband usually means singing without instruments and getting other people to write songs for them. Whereas McFly sing, play their own instruments, write their own songs and produce their own songs.
My favourite is mint choc chip! :D
It's funny as well because in the book they're promoting there was a whole paragraph about how they hated people asking them what their favourite ice-cream flavours were... hahahaha :) xxx
They've had over 35 months in the industry... I know, its quite a while. But if you're going to compare them to McFly, then experience is the only thing in it. I'm a massive fan of both but I personally can tell from McFly's writing abilities and musical style that they have really developed over time, and I hope that One Direction will continue to do so too!
They're a band! Just like the thousands of other bands in the world.
LoveThem
Because now days when someone says a boyband they mean a group of boys who sing. McFly however play all there own instruments, write their own songs and actually have helped BOYBANDS like one direction because they can't write their own songs...
Yeah...
Harry is so competitive :L. Bless him
mcfly is at its own place, 1d at its own. no band is worst or immature, just my taste is mcfly and thats a fact mcfly are in this industry for more than 10 years and are more mature in this field than 1d. just my opinion.
Clearly buzz is toms favourite character as well
No! :D Watch their Recent Radio1 interview theyre so cute haha
I agree it doesn't make mcfly better, it all depends on your taste in music. I listen to both bands. I am saying you cannot compare them. They're styles are different but they are both good.

I figure if they can sing without autotune they all deserve some level of respect.
dougie and tom are sitting exactly the same and harry and danny are and it looks so cool omg does anyone else think this? nope just me okie then
harry says- "hense the big head for his brain" then the camera zooms in on toms head lol :D
Danny
SO DO I! *internet high-five*
Ngl Queen, The Rolling Stones and The Beatles all play instruments, would you call them boy bands???
WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT AD HERE. Paranormal activity. It really disturbed me. Caught unaware. -_-"
those who dont like mcfly, dont listen to them, ok? they are the best! i remember to those directiones that they dont like mcfly, tom wrote some songs for them, and those are fantastic songs! mcfly plays instruments like one direction and they sing really well too, so both are incredible! that's it.

i love people who love lizard dougie!
I agree, but Tom does write for One Direction sometimes
THEY ARE A BLOODY BAND!!! INSTRUMENTS AND ALL!!!
That interviewer made the whole thing INCREDIBLY awkward... at times I just wanted to go "ouch...". She was TOO comfortable, if you see what I mean :)
they are boys, and they are a band, they are a boyband!
"It WASN'T Dougie??"
OH MY GOD ME AND DANNY BOTH LIKE MINT CHOC CHIP ICE CREAM BEST
DONT HATE ON OLLY , HIS BOOK MADE ME CRY , I LOVE HIM!!!:-(:-(:-(
lol when wearing skinny jeans with flat shows you look like a golf club ...sooo funny :)
depends on your definition of boy band. Yes they are all males but boy bands are the ones that don't write their one songs or play their one instruments, like 1d, they just perform--sing songs
NEVVVVVEEEEEEEEERRR haha. Idk really, all I know is that McFly have a very very strong friendship and have already been through a lot
And you're opinion is defo a correect one! :)
yes but still... McFly have been writting their own songs since before the whole band was even formed - and when they started they were all about 15-18
How dare that interviewer say mean things about Olly Murs :O

YOU CANNOT COMPARE THEM.

Boyband is a band formed by boys completely so, in fact, they are a boyband. And yes, The Beatles were the first group considered as a boyband. You're welcome and stop hating ;)
No. They are a BAND...not a BOYBAND. There is a big difference!
Hmmmm I think they've already been GIVEN a chance. A multi-million pound chance and hundreds of thousands of ready-made fans... for a group of boys who haven't been in the industry long they have done well haven't they? I don't think we should pity them too much....
Dougie likes pistachio! :)

danny was pissed off from when she said tom was the brains behind the band , which isnt true danny jones is the man
I always thought it was both of them (i.e. Tom and Danny).

No dislikes wheyyyyy :)
not exactly. they just use their connections with busted to promote themselves. tom and danny had already written songs before even harry and dougie had joined in

tbf when mcfly started they needed help to write songs just like 1d do
Oooooooooo burn on Olly
