What do people think of McFlys attempt of Dont Stop Me Now?

Marty Mc Fly?

I can't believe that so many of you "Queen Fans" are putting this cover down just because you dont like Mc Fly.
Believe me, I am far from being their number one fan, but I think they did a great job.
Their version was true to the original, instrumentally and vocally very good, the use of harmonies I thought were better than the original too.
This is a great Queen song and Mc Fly have not fucked it up what so ever, just paid tribute to Queen by doing a decent cover.

Matt.

The McFly cover or slaughter of DSMN is the worst attempt I have ever had the misfortune to hear. And the fact that it got to number one is even more unbelievable. Especially as the original didn't even reach that. It only managed 9.

There weak voices are torture to listen to. They probably record a line each as to enough strength. It is terrible and the video is laughable as well.

True I don't like McFly, but if I thought it was a good cover I would say so. But I don't, so I didn't.

By the way, what Queen song did they cover before?

McFly is a teeny punkrocky Bustedy band.

I like it!

If a cover is good enough to spark more interest in Queen's music generally then it's good enough for me !

I don't hate McFly, I think they're great. And that's why I should have preferred them to come up with an original arrangement. As I said, I like the drumming, it's more punky, and more their style, then why didn't they do the same with the guitar solo instead of copying it note by note?

Same for the form...

I think it's pretty good. They have fun with it. I also love 'Please Please' and the video is hilarious.

And they're adorable. ;)
