McFly: 'Do Ya' / 'Stay With Me'

Is it time for the McFly boys to collect their MBEs? Aside from being talented songwriters, gifted musicians and owners of their own record label, they've also proved themselves to be endlessly charitable. First they recorded a song for Comic Relief, then one for Sport Relief and now they're making it three in a row with this double A-side release in aid of Children In Need.

'Do Ya', which manages to sound like it was recorded at the height of the 60s, showcases the group's unfailing ability to hammer out an infectious pop hook. Band member Tom Fletcher thinks its one of the best songs they've written and he's probably right. 'Stay With Me', a cover of The Faces' 1971 classic, is a slightly weaker offering, but it does prove McFly aren't ones to shirk a challenge. When it comes to charity records, they've just nailed the hat-trick.
