McFly : Greatest Hits is the greatest hits album from British boy-band Mclfy. The album was released in the United Kingdom in 2007. The CD is currently selling from Amazon for a price of £3.97 which I think is excellent value for money.

Wow! I love this album; there are so many great songs on here. It is a great collection of songs. I really like this album and can listen to it all the way through with skipping any of the tracks.

The majority of the songs on this album come under the pop/rock and pop/punk genres. Normally, I wouldn't listen to something 'punk' as it is not my kind of music, but when you throw Mcfly into the mix, I love it.

Songs which stand out for me include: All About You, Obviously, I'll Be Ok, Baby's Coming Back and Transylvania. Each song is individual yet still manages to keep that 'instantly-recognisable' Mcfly sound.

When I first heard about this album, I thought that it seemed a bit too 'early on' in their career for them to release a greatest hits album; however, I hadn't realised that they have actually been in the charts for around eight years now.

Their music has changed quite a bit since the earlier days, yet they have still managed to maintain unique. When they first burst onto the scene, they were compared to Busted, however, I have to say that they are much better than Busted were.

These lads are so talented; not only can they sing and play their own instruments but they actually write all of their songs; and they are good songs too. It is amazing when you think how young they are (early twenties).

The boys can sing; well there is only two out the four members who do sing, Danny and Tom. I have to say I prefer Danny's voice to Tom's; it's much more rough and ready than Tom's. Sometimes Tom comes across as though he is straining his voice. He's good though.

I like how their music is easy to relate to. I thi
nk mainly teenagers will be able to relate to their music; a lot of it is about teenage love, although it is a topic that everyone can relate to.

I would definitely recommend this album.

Thanks for reading!
