Advantages: Obvoiusly - room on 3rd floor - brocooli and all the singles

Disadvantages: Some weaker songs and vocal weakness but overall good

This is quite a genius album basically. Individually and as a band i find them quite unlikeable really. This their debut release has a number of VERY VERY good song but to through a balance there are just as much average songs that seemed very rushed. To their credit they do write their own music and i think that deserves some praise especially since their peers like Boyzone and Westlife do not do any writing and constantly are successful without writing and producing covers. Mostly Mcfly are original and play live quite well - i dislike their personalities and they are the sort of kids who would cause havoc in a classroom at the back but this album is quite pop genius in it's own genre.

I think Five Colours In Her Hair is a excellent song especially since most boyband singles are not very good, this is catchy and a breath of fresh air. It was Obviously that lyrically and vocally impressed me and WOW! what a chorus, it's vibrant and different and i think it deserves some praise. Room On The Third Floor had a great great video and it's meaningful and emotive. It's lyrically quite nice and well done to them for writing that one. That Girl i thought wasnt anything new to the other above songs, it's quite catchy but it's the same chorus rhythm and melody from Obviously and Room On The Third Floor.

I thought Broccoli was genius and should have been released. Unsaid things really should have been unsaid. Surfer Babe has a good vibe and Not Alone i did find touching. Vocally it's quite weak if i am honest. Production wise quite impressive really and lyrically quite a nice listen. I do think that youngsters that age are too young to understand the complexity and meanings of some of the songs as well.

It's a good debut and the first few songs are the best and then like most pop albums then track by track the quality fades quite quickly. It's a decent attempt and they are writing their own songs to their own credit.

Summary: Debut album by boyband MCFLY
