Apparently he's guilty of being a bit sentimental is his songs. It's a shame really because we could do with so many more musicians trying to be really arch and cool. There just isn't enough of them.

Thank you

I know she's supposed to be a big joke, but I think she sounded great on those records.
Gorgeous too.

Adore this.

but also love this version.

Good advice in all forms of communication is "start in the middle and finish soon afterwards".

Isn't that what Paul McCartney does at his best, and which makes his work so disinctive? His songs often sound as though there originally was an introduction, which he then dropped to get straight to the interesting part.

much maligned but has the choooons!

...Jeff!

One of his best chugger chugger songs. Love the guitar licks and brass on this:

And I just think this is just a great big "fuck you" to those a few years ago who claimed he couldn't write great songs anymore:

Finally my favourite song from his McCartney II album which kicked off the thread. In terms of sentiment I think of it as his "In My Life" song:

Oh how I love the Biannual Word Magazine "Macca is Actually Brilliant" thread. And the inevitable "Back To The Egg is the lost masterpiece" post.

(Paul + Ringo) x George Martin =

Did anyone hear him on Radio One with Dev "jamming" on Thursday. The man's DNA is made of melody, it's frightening: He appears after 50 mins and the jam starts at 1 hour

I love that his best songs seem effortless

to worry I may have to regret it in two or three years...

God like talent. Bastard.
