Added DiffLines:

** To a lesser extent, OneDirection have occasionally been considered this, due to members of [=McFly=] writing some of their songs and that they seem to [[FriendlyFandoms share a fanbase]].

* CallBack: Their second Greatest Hits album, 'Memory Lane', is named after an album track from 'Wonderland'.
** 'I'll Be Your Man' appears to be sung to a girl named Kate, likely a reference to a previous track on the same album, If U C Kate, especially since the latter is about looking for Kate while the former mentions her being found.

[=McFly=] are a British Pop-Rock band who were formed in 2003. While being rather obscure in most overseas countries (In America, non-fans will probably only know them from the movie ''Just My Luck'', if they've even heard of them at all), they're a mainstream success in the UK, with 15 top-ten singles, 7 number ones and a World Record for youngest band ever to have their debut album chart at number 1 (The record was previously held by TheBeatles).

* HollywoodPudgy: In the early years, Tom was often mocked for being fat. He may have been slightly bigger than the other members, but [[http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b382/Victoria2345/mcfly/39.jpg certainly not a fatass]]. He's lost weight since then, but Tom openly refers to his early-[=McFly=] appearance as "Fat Tom".
* HoYay: Dougie and Harry are often quite physically affectionate with each other. They might play this up as Fanservice.

* GroinAttack: Tom gets one at the end of the video for "Sorry's Not Good Enough." Considering what he does during the video, though, (duct-taping his girlfriend to her chair and forcing her to relive memories of them in order to stop their break up) it's clear that he deserves it.

* AlbumTitleDrop: They seem to like this trope:
** "Wonderland" comes from the first verse of ''Ultraviolet''; "Nothing goes to plan, it's all a game of chance they say in Wonderland"
** "Please, Please" from their third album "Motion in the Ocean" uses "Let's get the motion in the ocean so turn off your phone now"
** "Above The Noise" appeared in the first lines of the second verse in "Shine a Light"; "Tell me can you hear my voice, loud and clear above the noise?"
