McFly’s Tom Fletcher to write for One Direction’s new album?






Tom Fletcher has revealed that he will once again work with One Direction on their new album.

The singer from boyband McFly worked on the boy’s debut record ‘Up All Night’ and admitted that he has been approached by the 1D management about adding a couple of tracks to their follow up album.

Speaking to The Daily Star, Tom said: “I haven’t been given a brief as to what kind of song they want from me, we’re just waiting to see what I come up with.”

Fletcher added that he finds it easy to write for the five piece X Factor group, as he sees many similarities between his band McFly in their early days and where 1D are now.

He thinks his experience will help him pen tracks for the young stars and added:

“Some songwriters have never been in a band, but the One Direction guys can relate to me, as I’ve been through the same kind of experiences as they have.

“When I’ve been in the studio with them, the manic atmosphere was just the same as when we made our debut.”

Fletcher has written or co-written ten UK number-one singles, which is quite a record!

He was behind Busted hits “Crashed The Wedding,” “Who’s David?,” and “Thunderbirds” and “Five Colours in Her Hair,” “Obviously,” “All About You,” “I’ll Be OK,” “Please, Please,” “Star Girl,” and “Transylvania” for McFly.

Tom also wrote “On a Rainbow,” the official song of the 2012 Summer Olympics’ mascots Wenlock and Mandeville, he also wrote the song “I Want” for One Direction’s first album.

For their second release, 1D will be once again working with ‘A Team’ hitmaker Ed Sheeran on penning some tracks and Louis Tomlinson recently revealed that he wants the whole thing to have a more grungy feel, adding:

“We want to take the next album into a different zone – more guitars and grungier.

“We like the sound of a real guitar on tour, we beefed up the live show so now we want to take it onto the album.”
