Before you do anything, watch this video:







If we want McFly on Glee (one of their songs, we haven't got THAT must trust in their acting skills... sorry boys) there are a couple of things we need to keep in mind.

These are just steps you need to read in order to know what to expect. The steps of action will follow!

1. Permission
McFly need to give permission for Glee to use one of their songs. Now, this shouldn't be a problem. Tom is huge Glee fan and the McFly boys have met several Glee actors - we're pretty sure McFly knows what a boost it will give them if one of their tunes is covered by Glee. But there's one problem... or one thing that MIGHT be a problem. Glee will need permission from the Owner of the Copyright, which doesn't always have to be the artist. In our case, we need to make sure that McFly's record label is also in on it.

2. US Record Label
We know that this is something that's highly unlikely to happen without McFly having a US record deal. This doesn't kill the mood though, because we want Glee to want McFly - that's the goal. Once Glee want McFly, it'll push the case forward and with Billboard's previous tweets about loving McFly, we can only predict good things.

3. Songs of choice
If we stick to one song, it's going to give Ryan Murphy (the creator of Glee) a specific choice. This means he has to listen to the song, go yay or nay and be done with it. This means that there's a 50% chance of us getting what we want. That's too low. If we're all going to shout different songs, that means that he's going to have to check out all these songs before he can say yay or nay... This means there's more work for him, which he might not enjoy and might not actually do...  unless we get annoying. If we send e-mails, letters, spam them on twitter, tumblr, facebook - hit all targets at once, about wanting a McFly song on Glee, there's no way that Ryan isn't going to notice (or will be told about) it. We know spamming isn't fun, and it's not fun to be on the receiving end, but it's the only thing we HAVE. It's gotten us places in the past, so why not the future?

4. If they can do it, so can McFly
We can hear you yell "If The Wanted are able to do it, it'll be EASY for McFly!" but don't be mistaken! The Wanted are now on a US tour, have a top 40 US hit, have had their US TV debut on the Ellen Degenerous Show and were radio guests at Ryan Seacrest where they were interviewed, had their track played and played their song acoustically. Basically Glee just called them up and said "We want that song." after hearing it everywhere. McFly won't get the same treatment... just be aware of that.

5. Support system
Keep in mind that there are people who are ON Glee that are excited about McFly being on the show too - it's not just us. Here are some quotes that make sure that we're not going to give up on this:

“There’s so many artists that have these massive collections. I mean, I’m still hoping for a McFly episode, but that will never happen. I love McFly.” - Kevin McHale (we are excited about proving you wrong)

"I think I have another year, hopefully, to convince Ryan to let me do a McFly song. But the problem is that I have no idea which song. They don't really know McFly, so I'm really going to have to go in and kind of sell it. There needs to be an entire presentation." - Kevin McHale (let us take care of the presentation)

"Yeah, 'All About You' would be incredible. I know Darren Criss and I talked about doing 'All About You.' We both love McFly." - Kevin McHale (adfghjkhgfdsa)

6. Spread the word
It's one of the stupidest things ever, but whenever you ask someone who isn't a McFly fan, in the US, if they know McFly... the only thing they can hold onto is "Oh yea, that band from Just My Luck, right?" because that's the only big thing McFly have done that is US related. This kills us because look at how different they are now. It's stupid to think that what you saw it that film is what McFly is really like... but there's a chance that the people behind Glee have this mindset. We are going to have to show them that McFly has different sides to them, different songs, different styles and songs that go from ballroom band to sweaty underground band. They have it all and we need to shove it under their noses. This is why we want you to spread the video you just watched around - share it with your friends, other fans of McFly and other fans of Glee.

Now that we've got you in the right mindset, let's carry on with the actual mission.

Friday 6 April 2012 - 7:00pm (UK time) til 12:00pm (UK time)

This is the day and the time where we are all going to go mad. Absolutely crazy. We need our Spam Army to be ready; have your e-mail boxes open, your twitter pages open, your facebook pages open and even your tumblr pages open.

You can either choose one of the following ways to spam, or work them all into a spam-routine. We prefer if you did the latter, of course. The more voices, the better. We are giving you pre-set tweets, but you don't have to use these of course. You can tweet tracks for them to listen to, tell them why you want McFly to be covered by Glee, give them tons of reasons why this is a good idea - just make sure you sneak a link to the video shown above in there. It's important that everyone gets to see the video for more information on McFly.

Tweet the following (on Friday 6 April!)
