We Are The Young McFly placed a early demo version of this song on the Star Girl Single. It has been altered slightly with more piano. Star Girl was released on the 23rd October 2006 and went to number one in the UK. Please Please released as the first song from Motion In The Ocean with double a side cover 'Dont Stop me Now' for Sport Relief. McFly makes some obvious references in this song to the actress Lindsay Lohan, who drummer Harry Judd met on the set of Lohan's movie Just My Luck, where McFly made an appearance. Lohan is not mentioned specifically, but the girl in the song has green eyes, red hair, and is named Lindsay. Also, in the video the name tag on the nurse says "Lindsay Allbright" - Lohan's character in Just My Luck was named "Ashley Allbright." The band's official position, as stated in the album notes, is that the song is not about Lohan. Sorry's Not Good Enough 3rd Single from MITO.
