Okay, it's official. Paul McCartney is not equipped to churn out a song that is not absolutely golden. He can make a rock song that lifts up a party, a love song that words cannot describe, or even heavy metal that is pleasing even to people who think heavy metal is as bad as rap.
This is like the hundredth time that I've listened to a Paul song and been speechless. I don't know how it's possible, besides the fact that he's Paul McCartney and obviously has magical powers.
McCartney goes folk, and as with everything else he tries his hand to, nails another beauty. Lovely, simple song - written in a blackout apparently.....
Many comments here about a lack of edge to his lyrics - but his scantion is wonderfully smooth, and I sometimes wonder if the lauded 'edginess' of other writers is sometimes an excuse for what is actually a lack of care/ talent.
There are so many words that only seem to appear in a Macca song....calico being just one ...
Paul is so good he can make pop/rock songs with a hint of classical music and get away with it- because normally people dont appreciate classical music- even Paul's classical albums
Was at his concert here in Quebec on Sunday and when he played this song it brought chills!! Great great great show!! I'll remember it for years to come. Welcome back anytime Paul !!
brilliant song. really underrated.

This song is an example of this man creativity and ability to write great songs as good as he did in the Beatles.
