- February 27th, 2009, 9:11 pm#100906I like some of the vocal variations that McFly does, i.e, The way they sing "an invisible man sleeping in your bed", the second "who ya gonna call" in the first verse, the first "I ain't afraid of no ghost" in the chorus, I also love the organ sound (if that's a keyboard, organ, whatever it is) that they use. Especially during the chorus when it goes off to a higher octave seperately from the rest of the instruments. I also think they are the only band I've heard that makes the double time at the end of the song sound good. Never was fond of Attaboy Skip's version. McFly never loses energy during the song, and I think of all the popular covers out there now, they would be the best choice to provide an updated version of the song for GB3.
I do, however, love the drum breakdown during Ludo's performance, as well as how into it the band gets. They're ok in my book. I also like the drum breakdown during the second bridge (?).
One thing I've noticed however, when people play the song is that alot of times, the beginning of the song sounds great, but as soon as the lyrics start, the song dies. Well, maybe not dies, but it loses the energy and the drive. Not every band I've heard keeps the energy up, but when they do, it's very obvious. It sounds much better.
