Love In Song is a particularly beautiful piece of music that I have always loved. Most of London Town was unfairly criticised in my opinion, too. Cafe On The Left Bank, Deliver Your Children and Morse Moose and the Grey Goose may not be spectacular, but I've always counted them among my favourites. Average Person just sucks, unfortunately. Excellent choice for a user name, though. ;) |

Love In Song and Beware My Love are fantastic piece of music. I thoroughly agree with you, Lisa. I tire of the fact that the general public just haven't a clue when it comes to the depth or emotional impact of Paul's solo catalogue when all they have to do is just listen. The amount of times I hear people talk about "The Frog Song" or "Mull Of Kintyre" (both wonderful songs, mind you) when Macca is mentioned - and that's even people who generally know a lot about music - it does frustrate me. Paul is one of the greatest, if not the greatest, songwriter(s) of the 20th Century and he's carrying on that trend well into the 21st. I agree with all of your picks on London Town as well, Clare, apart from Deliver Your Children. I think I'd love that song if it wasn't for the lyric "and a fork and knife". Lazy lyrics at their worst! :pinch: |

So The Other Me is allowed a duff lyric but not Deliver Your Children. |

some of my favourite songs which nobody I know (apart from my McCartney obsessed friends of course) have heard of but should have are Junk Oo You Back seat of my car 3 legs Dear Boy Smile Away Tomorrow I am your Singer Wildlife Some People Never Know Dear Friend Only One More Kiss Single Pigeon Only One more night Little Lamb Dragonfly Medley (the forgotten one as I now call it) Mamunia No Words Love in song Magneto and Titanium Man Letting Go The Note you never wrote Shes my baby Beware my love Silly love songs Warm and Beautiful Sally G I'm Carrying Famous Groupies Name and address Morse Moose and Grey Goose Deliver your children Girls School Dont let it Bring you down Old Siam Sir Arrow Through me So glad to see you hear To you After the ball/ Million miles Winter Rose/ Love Awake Daytime Nighttime Suffering Temporary Secretary Darkroom Nobody Knows One of these days Check my machine Goodnight Tonight Wanderlust Dress me up as a robber the pound is sinking Whats that your doing? So Bad We all stand together (it does not deserve the mauling it so often gets) Footprints Only Love Remains Pretty Little Head (single version) We got married You want her too Distractions That Day is Done This One I owe it to you Mistress and Maid The Lovers that never were winedark open sea The song we were singing Calico skies Great Day Beautiful Night Heaven on a Sunday Sovenir Somedays Celebration Watercolour Guitars (The Fireman) Junior's Farm Lonely Road Your way Magic Rinse the raindrops I Do She's given up talking Fine line Friends to go Riding to vanity fair Too much rain Anyway This Never Happened before Summer of 59 I want you to fly House of wax Why so Blue Traveling Light Highway Don't stop running Universal Here, Everlasting Now The ones in bold I think are my stand out ones. In other words are real hidden McCartney gems which need to be heard |

I don't know if these are under-rated but there songs that have grown on me more and more to the point that I used to think they were ave. but now seen them as quite classy. Not classic, well some are Teddy boy Tomorrow (classic-theMacca hidden gem) Little lamb dragonfly London town (classic) Open tonight (for the few seconds it lasts) Pretty little head Figure of eight (although it's a bit perfunctory, perhaps the, inevitable, problem with virtually all Pauls middle-aged work) Distractions (although it's well crafted it's just not quite a strong enough tune to be a classic) Heaven on a sunday Everything on Driving rain Jenny wren See your sunshine You tell me Edited by Mr.Mustard, Apr 13 2009, 04:19 AM.
