When I first heard about McFLY's 'new sound' I was a bit unsure what to expect and what i'd think of it. I was pleasently surprised at how much I liked the song. It's uplifting and easy to sing along too. It was a good opener to the anticipated second album. I couldn't wait for it!
McFLY are sounding alot more mature with this song. I think it appeals to a wider range of people.
McFLY aren't at the hieght of their career yet, I'm sure there's alot more surprises to come.
Great song. 4/5

Britain's newest homegrown talent were, this time last year, the coolest Sixties-esque pop-rock (or 'nu-pop' as the band themselves affectionately called it!) to ever surface from the musical vaults of good old Blighty. Fast forward to the present time and our favourite 'nu-poppers' have matured beyond recognition with this latest offering to become our hottest indie band to date, with hints of their orginal musical influences such as The Beatles, The Beach Boys, Bruce Springsteen, The Kinks, Led Zeppelin and more strongly, The Who, shining through.
Gone are the colourful clothes, jangly melodies and unswervingly rhyming lyrics.....replaced by a mean and moody look (complete with old-skool blazers, ties, sexily rumpled shirts and new piercings and tattoos for some) mature, thoughtful lyrics and more grown-up songs that tell stories rather than praise vegetables (check out 'Broccoli' on their fantastic debut album 'Room on the 3rd Floor'). The bleached hair has been left behind in favour of sexy, mussed up darker hairdos and with their best musical offering to date the boys have secured their positions as well-respected, live musicians. 'I'll Be Ok' is the second offering from second album 'Wonderland' (out August 29th) and it doesnt disappoint. If you thought their first album couldn't be any better, prepare to be exceedingly suprised.
With 'I'll Be Ok', the boys have finally made the transition, from cute nu-poppers reminisent of certain 1960s bands to well-respected sexy indie rockers and possibly more importantly, from boys to men.

McFly:- "I'll Be Ok"
28 Aug 2005
Format:Audio CD
McFly have really matured since releasing songs like "Five Colours In Her Hair". Their songs just get better, and "I'll Be Ok" maybe their best effort yet, along with the Comic Relief recording "All About You". "I'll Be Ok" is their second number one single in the UK taken from their new album "Wonderland", out TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!! McFly have scored another three number ones. Their number ones are:- FIVE COLOURS, OBVIOUSLY, ALL ABOUT YOU + I'LL BE OK. Their first album got number one, and their second is tipped to go to number one, too, in the UK.
Cd 2 features the following tracks:- I'LL BE OK, NOTHING, PINBALL WIZARD, I'LL BE OK (ENHANCED VIDEO) + DANNY'S DISCO (HOME FOOTAGE). It also includes a free poster. I'll Be Ok is an excellent summer track, Nothing is a great previously unreleased song, Pinball Wizard is the Who classic and the video + footage is excellent. The poster is double-sided, with pressings of the "I'll Be Ok" singles on them. The Amazon tracklisting for Cd 2 is wrong, "I'll Be Ok" + "No Worries" are included on Cd 1!

mcflys songs just get better and better!
4 Aug 2005

When I heard that mcfly were going to release a new single with a different sort of sound to their others, i was unsure that it would be able to top the other fantastically written previous chart hits such as "obviously" and "that girl"etc. Until I heard "Ill be okay", as soon as I heard it I loved it, it definatly is a lot more mature,accompaning the bands new image.This single is a more "grown up" than their other songs which I think will interest a whole different generation as well as their usual age group.Tom Fletcher and Danny Jones together have written a fabulous song with meaningful verses and an incredibly catchy chorus which brings a smile to my face!I especially loved the U2 esque beginning and Harry Judds drum work in the chorus,it was the key ingredient that gave the song that certain quality that would even make the biggest mcfly non-fan want to dance! I havent actually got one bad point to make about it! the singing and harmonising was amazing, every instrument: guitar, bass and drums was played to its full potential. I can definatly see this becoming a massive summer hit.keep up the good work!x
