Exclusives


"The Heart Never Lies" was played for the first time at V Festival on 18 August 2007. The band also performed the song at the Blackpool Illuminations on 31 August 2007. The performance was different from the one at V however, as lead singer Tom Fletcher, couldn't make it to the show, leaving Danny Jones to sing the song alone. BBC Radio 1 were the first radio station to play "The Heart Never Lies". McFly themselves the song in to Scott Mills on 11 September 2007. McFly performed the song on Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway on 15 September 2007. This was the first TV performance of the single.

In McFly's My Life in Music interview, Fletcher stated that the song was actually inspired by the band and that over time, it evolved into a love song.[2] During live performances, the song eventually became famous for the line "Another year over and we're still together, it's not always easy but I'm here forever" being changed to "It's not always easy but McFly's here forever". The band often perform the song as part of their encore.


Music video


A bulletin was sent to friends of McFly's Myspace page on 8 September 2007 announcing that they had shot the video to the single in Bath. The video was released onto music channels on 21 September 2007. The video sees the band performing in the rain, with shots to a tragic love story which ends with the couple driving straight into water. The official website sees that it has "got to be up there with the best videos McFly have ever made", and has been quoted as completely different from the band's past music videos. The guy that drowns in the car is played by Tom Graham who also played Tom Archer in the long-running BBC Radio 4 show The Archers, with his girlfriend being played by BAFTA-winning actress Vanessa Kirby, best known for playing Princess Margaret in The Crown.
