Song Information
The song was written by band members Tom Fletcher, Dougie Poynter and Danny Jones. The single started its life out as two tracks, one written by Jones and the other by Fletcher and then by placing their "best" parts of their songs together, they had written I'll Be OK. In an interview, Tom Fletcher stated "It gives people a positive message, by saying that you should always reassure yourself, even when things do go wrong." The single also includes a new track -"No Worries" - written by former Busted members Charlie Simpson and James Bourne.
The opening of the song is similar to the opening "Won't Get Fooled Again" by The Who, who McFly were influenced by at the time. "Pinball Wizard" by The Who was also covered by McFly for an "I'll Be OK" B-side.

Famous quotes containing the words song and/or information:
“Turn back,
back
to the lake of Delos;
lest all the song notes
pause and break
across a blood-stained throat....”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
“So while it is true that children are exposed to more information and a greater variety of experiences than were children of the past, it does not follow that they automatically become more sophisticated. We always know much more than we understand, and with the torrent of information to which young people are exposed, the gap between knowing and understanding, between experience and learning, has become even greater than it was in the past.”
—David Elkind (20th century)
