The new McFly single, 'One For The Radio', is harder and more American-sounding than anything they've done before, so it makes sense that the video is glossier and more American-looking than their previous promo clips.
Actually, the video does labour its point slightly - namely that McFly are a "real" band who enjoy playing their guitars, shaking their shaggy hair and generally rocking their little socks off - but the group's sense of humour remains intact. As with most things McFly do, it's impossible not to smile and think 'Aww, bless' as you watch.

As a fan since day one, initially I didn't know what to make of the song. But seeing as I have never disliked ANY of their songs, I knew they wouldn't let me down. The message is great,the song is great, the video is great...Once again they are adapting and growing musically, and I think there is no end to the talents of McFly. I get that not everyone will like them, but half the people I know who claim not to - they haven't even gave them a shot! GO MCFLY!!

Love the whole Back to the Future homage at the beginning of the video. The song's pretty good too but not in the same league as Too Close For Comfort.

I love the new single, I think the video is amazing, the massage is put across really clearly- people who don't admit to liking them, can't help but secretly enjoy their music. Very talented band.

I absolutly love this song and now of course the video!!! I like how it is different from their previous songs and you can tell this is purely 100% McFly!! The video is so good! I like the dancers and it made me laugh all the way through just like their previous vidoes!!! The funniest part is when Danny gets trown from the amp because i can totally see him doing that!! Plus, it didn't hurt that they all looked amazingly sexy!!

Lindsey, it is only 14+ for standing only gigs. All the other gigs are all ages apart from standing areas. It's called health & safety.
