Right then.

There's just been a Mail on Sunday advert on the telly, as they are giving away the new McFly album.

I am fairly certain that one of the tracks is clearly plagiarised from the theme tune to the Gummi Bears.

Maybe it's just me.

Mm. It's not even that they sound a bit like other things; they are almost exactly the same.

It is now in my signature, where I thought it was in the first place, but was not.

The avatar makes me smile, though it is shamelessly stolen from http://www.idiottoys.com/

What annoys me is that I really like McFly, but this now means that I'm going to have to go and buy the Mail on Sunday, which disgusts me...

:(

I can see how that would be annoying, especially for anyone else in your house.

Fuck McFly and fuck the Mail on Sunday, fuck them all to hell.

McFly are a horribly underrated band largely disliked because of their marketing. They're actually a very good band who write and perform some awesome songs, like My Chemical ROmance crossed with Jellyfish... but in a good way.

And I really can't be arsed to buy the Mail on Sunday, so I'll just wait and... ummm... listen to it at my friend Sam Torrance's house.

Well, I am hardly one to judge on musical tastes as, just like Craig said the other day, I don't like anything from this decade ?:| Or the last, or the one before that.

But no, I don't like McFly. I disagree that they write awesome songs - at the best the STEAL awesome songs from the Gummi Bears :DD
