I know that instantly people will hate the idea of this and want to stone me and rape me, I mean beat me and call me gay and queer and homothesexual. But in 2014, McFly and 2 of the 3 members of Busted combined together as a band called McBusted to release an album that would be absolutely HATED by most people here. It's a tacky, silly album, but I kinda don't mind it at times.

 

Anyway, regardless of what you think of the band or the album, there is one song from it that made it onto my 'Very Best of 2014' CDR and after I spin the disc it's one of the songs that stands out afterwards; one I can't (and don't want to) get out of my head. It's a little ditty called 'Gone,' and a love it:

I'm with you on this one, Geoff - McBusted are a guilty pleasure for me (as are McFly, if I'm honest.) My better half and her daughters are BIG fans, so I've kind of absorbed this album by osmosis over the past few weeks ...

 

They write annoyingly catchy, entertaining songs. Good on 'em!

:lol: Yeah, I'm not about to bring it up in dinner time conversation that I like the album, but it a pretty cool bunch of catchy tunes. I never got into McFly for some reason, but I still own those two Busted albums. Massive guilty pleasure that I am embarrassed about, but I just don't mind them! :lol:

 

Fightstar's 'Grand Unification' disc by the member of Busted who didn't return for this project, is still a killer disc too.

I like it, but I enjoyed McFly as well. Gonna have to investigate this Busted.

 

To be honest, I don't rate Busted that highly - a couple of good songs, but I'd say that McFly have the edge.

Doods, if you had to recommend one McFly disc, which one is their best? I have tried them before, but it didn't really stick. They seemed very patchy. Which album will convert me? ;)

 

BTW, I totally acknowledge Busted were a bad band, but I still just liked them for some reason. For whatever reason, trash like 'That's what I go to school for' will always be etched somewhere in my head. Just harmless, throw away pop rock. :)

I like Motion In The Ocean.

 

I have Above The Noise, Radio Active and Room on The 3rd floor, but for some reason this one stands out in my noodle most...

 

 

I'd go with 'Motion In The Ocean' and/or 'Radio: Active' (which has got 'Lies' on it ... turns out, this is one of my favourite McFly toons.)

Sorry mate, took me ages to get back to this one. Yeah, see I don't mind that but it doesn't really appeal to me as something I need to check out. I just get the feeling McFly might not be for me.

Just quietly, plenty of other threads to look at, dudes. ;)

 

I guess you are continually drawn back to this one because of a secret addiction and lust for the tunes in it?

For those who missed it the first time around, just listening to my 2014 playlist and this song is still an absolute world beater. Perfection-

Yeah, there's several very good tunes on it, to be fair. 'Gone' would be one of, it not my favourite tune from 2014, though.

Even the songs I originally didn't care for, I like now.

  • 2024 HH Donation Drive

    Please support Heavy Harmonies! The donations goal is the out-of-pocket expenses to run the main site and this board for calendar year 2024.

      Another year older and closer to death... time for the 2024 Heavy Harmonies Donation Drive!

      By heavyharmonies · Posted

      Well... I mean... it's true.   Time once again to nag/beg/plead/insult (wait, what?) to help out covering Heavy Harmonies' expenses. Costs for the site run roughly US$195 a month, roughly the same as last several years.  So when I say "costs", what do I mean? It's the out-of-pocket expenses to keep Heavy Harmonies running: server lease, bandwidth, hosting support, and the subscription for this forum software, domain registration. The 2023 drive did pretty well, reaching 83% of goal of covering the annual costs. Let's see if we can meet, or better yet, beat that goal! The donation drive will run through Halloween, October 31.   Anyone who makes a single donation of $20 or more and has a board username will be added to the group "2024 Donors". This gets you the following benefits: A nice shiny icon in your profile showing that you are an HH Donor for 2024:  An increase in the size of your PM storage from 200 to 500 messages An increase in image attachment/upload storage from 20MB to 50MB Exempt from the search flood control (normally if you try and do a search more than every 10 seconds, you get an annoying little "please wait" message) No time limit on editing your own posts! This will especially be useful for those with trade/sale lists as you'll be able to edit them rather than posting revised versions. A warm fuzzy feeling inside that you are helping support Heavy Harmonies! If you donate $50 during the drive, either as a single donation or across multiple donations, you will be added to the group "2024 Gold Donors". This gets you the following in addition to the above: A bigger, shiny badge:  All your posts will be highlighted, because if you show this much dedication to HH, what you have to say is obviously more more important! (just kidding, but your posts will be accentuated). The ability to create a forum "signature" that will be added to all of your posts. If you donate using buttons on the main site, please put your board username in the notes section, and if you donate from here on the forum, please PM me the email address that you sent the donation from! Otherwise I have no way to tie your donation to your membership here on the board. If you are currently in the 2023 donor groups but don't wish to donate this year (or can't), at the beginning of the donation drive, your group membership features will revert to the regular non-donator membership group. Membership in the 2024 Donors group will last until the beginning of next year's donation drive, at which point you can donate again to remain in the Donors group with the same benefits, or revert back to your current member group. PayPal donation buttons are found at the top of all the pages on the main site and here on the forum on the right side at the top, or if you'd prefer to send a money order, check, or cash (not recommended, but I know some people prefer to do so), you can make payable to Dan Harding and send to: Heavy Harmonies P.O. Box 17021 Urbana, IL 61803 USA If you can't give $20, give $10... if you can't give $10, give $5... it's just once a year. (And if you happen to be fortunate enough to be earning gobs of money, please feel free to give bunches! I'm not opposed to having a sugar daddy... or seven.) As always, your support is greatly appreciated! -Dan
