Paul McCartney - Suicide ("McCartney" Out-take) [2011 Remaster]

[MrZELIG9]

kickin' it out...I miss this punchiness

[fruntbach]

the old cunt is off his head on disco biscuits

[7hac]

this actually does not sound like Paul.... probably is, but hmnnn.... ahhhh, I get it, it's the fake Paul.

[7hac]

@7hac there's a timbre in Pauls voice that isn't usually there, maybe it was a case of going through the motions, but seriously, that song was near gospel on saying that wasn't JPM.... unless.....

[jhwendland]

For people interested, the lyric is "ruin, I'd bet he says..." not "ruinide"

[ForeverTreesGreen]

I bet he's saying

'Sing a Song of Rue in Ice'.

What it sounds like at least.

@09jpick

There is a cleaner 1974 demo on the Tube

watch?v=FdbQEG87yR0

Pronounce is very clear there, and the song is great

[strawberriesapples]

OMG, so many "versions" of Suicide! Gotta love Paul! :D

[Mechanismomusica]

This song was for Sinatra (who passed on it). There's a better demo out there with percussion.

[Mechanismomusica]

@09jpick "Song of ruin ayyyy" I think (it's more distinct in the other demos)

[devilmadesmoke]

@09jpick "ruinide" it's a made-up word, i think.

[jakestardust2]

@09jpick its repeated later in the track, he's saying "singing a song of ruin, I'd bet he says 'nothing doing'" he just extends the "i" of i'd to make it i-eeey-yiiii-iiiiiiiii'd bet... haha or something like that.. thats what the lyrics says it is anyways.. only paul knows for sure!

[jake1052003]

@jakestardust2 Thanks for that clairafication. It's easy to make fun of something you don't understand. So you think he's just making up some sort of mumbo jumbo but it's actually a thought out lyric. Very Sinatra like in style. Not that he wrote lyrics but he sang them his way. His style.

[megncomedy]

@09jpick Who cares what he's saying, it's Paul McCartney xD <3 <3 <3

[jakestardust2]

@megncomedy lol true

[Marshallsg]

@jakestardust2 Singing a song of ruin. I'd

bet he says nothin' doin'.

I-I-I-I I'd call it suicide.

[arthurvanfroh]

0:00 - 0:10 for 41 years...

[kacoll3]

My theory is, its just kindof a sucky song, without considering the subject. Sorry :(

[clockworkfiction3]

So the question is, why in the world didn't he release this in full on McCartney? I imagine the album would've gotten better reviews just with the addition of this song.

[mavrick45]

@clockworkfiction3 my theory is that the song was too dark and personal. If you know macca well, you know that a lot of his songs are about Linda. I suspect that this is true for this song as well. I suppose he didn't want to release a song with any hint of negativity toward her so he shelved it permanently. again, its just a theory. beautiful song though. I love it.

[bondimoni]

Ahhh, this is the song he send to sinatra, but Sinatra said no, that he was not going to sing about "Suicide", there's a another version but they are all bootleg, great to hear the original thing

[TheCreatureofmusic]

@bondimoni

Really? McCartney send this beautiful song to Sinatra? Can you imagine if Sinatra sang this awesome song. Wow, that would be something.

[Zeapheria]

Oh my god... I can't tell you how long i've been waiting for this!!!!! :DDDD

[jykl28]

i've been waiting for this song to be released for SO long. but yes, it does still fade in, and i really love the beginning.

[DerekBayRoberts1]

On the special edition of "Red Rose Speedway", i'd like to hear Paul's out take of Ringo's "Six '0' Clock. A song he wrote for Ringo.

[ThePrinceDhani]

I love this but it still fades in at the begining. I always thought there would have been more at the begining as well as the end.

[ywba]

Yes...I've been waiting for this forever! Thanks so much for uploading =) And thanks to Sir Paul as well...

[jakestardust2]

@ywba

youre welcome, trust me, im like you all, been waiting for this for a LONG time.... and you're right, biggest thanks to sir paul for finally releasing this gem!

[dbowsherlv]

Yes...finally!

[MikeyNL1038]

1974 is good too. but on this version, there's some kinda magic going on.

[MikeyNL1038]

I always turned up the volume at this song, to get to hear every little part of it.

But now we have the full thing! finally.

[Uetti]

A dream come true.
