McFly to perform Children in Need single



BBC Children in Need is delighted to announce that the 2008 Children in Need single will be performed by McFly, who will be donating all profits from the single to the charity's 2008 appeal.

This double-A sided single features the track Do Ya, from their current album Radio:ACTIVE, and a cover version of Rod Stewart and The Faces' Seventies hit Stay With Me.

Both songs will be performed for BBC Children in Need viewers on BBC One on Friday 14 November 2008.

Tom from McFly says: "We're so honoured to be releasing the official single for Children in Need.

"We've performed several times on the live show in the past and it's always been an amazing night with a fantastic atmosphere.

"Hopefully our single can help raise more money than ever for what is such a great cause."

For fans eager to be amongst the first to get their hands on the new single, it will be available to pre-order on the night of the 14 November as a two-track download from 7Digital.

The single will be available to download from Sunday 23 November and commercially available in stores from Monday 24 November.

Every single copy sold will help BBC Children in Need in its aim to raise over £30million to help disadvantaged children across the UK.

McFly will also be switching on the Regent Street Christmas lights from outside Hamleys in Regent Street, London W1 on Thursday 6 November 2008 from 5.45pm onwards. This is a traffic free event.
