You all know the urban legend of paul dying and being replaced by william campbell? They said "blackbird" was Williams view on taking the role of Paul, and he mentions "taking wings and fly" like he was borrowing someones life. Then you have Gratitute. And this son...well, its said (not me, the myth), that its a continuation of blackbird, and mentions that time when they were in india to change paul and williams souls
@applewhiteroad well after some research on the paul is dead myth, i found out that billy shears was a nickname for william campbell. then I found out that there was a band called marmelade wich had a singer named william junior campbell. He was scottish. And he did have some facial similaritys to paul. Remember, Paul resurfaced in scottland in a farm when the P.I.D myth was born.
@applewhiteroad then, i noticed paul has a song called JUNIORS FARM. Junior from Campbell, and farm, in scottland. I also noticed that lucy in the skys makes a reference to Marmelade right in the start of the song, as well as to paul losing his head, when they are standing near a field, full of HEADS with rugby balls inside of them.
Paul McCartney- "You film your muic video, I'm going to take a nap and then goof off with the set pieces form Sgt. Pepper while Linda sits in the corner and looks board stiff."
This song is written by Paul McCartney as a solo effort. George Harrison is nowhere in the creative process or production. Listen to "Just Another Day" or" Dear Boy" on the RAM album for similar song development.
Linda was a real winner Paul. But she would want you to move on until its your turn. Just please dont go 28 years younger again. Remember but dont dwell. RIP Linda.
I remember hearing this song several times when I was a kid. I didn't know Paul did this song until last night when I was house-sitting for my aunt & uncle, who have satellite radio on their TV, & one of the channels was playing nothing but Paul McCartney's solo hits. As soon as I heard the first chorus I noticed it. This morning I went on Wikipedia & it said this song only made #94 in the US (Where I live), but still I remember hearing it years ago. I would've thought it charted much higher.
I remember this one. Bless Linda. But Paul made a mistake in Heather Mills that c**t ! Linda was a CONTRIBUTING artist unlike that fucking gold digger Heather. RIP Linda !
1:14 - 1:39 Damn...that's what I call creativity and artistic ability!! This is the most creative and imaginative music video ever made!! Ah....Paulie...
Beautiful song- a classic. He is so romantic..."Did I ever touch you on the cheek, say that you were mine, thank you for the smile?" Makes my heart melt...and I love the video! Reminds me of an acid trip, and it was very artistic...and the eye makeup is amaazing- it's so cool how they made it like that!! But, at the very very end (for like the last 6 seconds), that guy freaks me out- they shouldn't have had him in the vid!
I totally agree with Klaatu and TheBeatlesToday! One of his most solid albums - best since maybe "Band on the Run" (but I do really like "Back to the Egg" also). This was his best backing group since Wings - performing on both "Flowers" and "Off the Ground". Too bad he didn't stick with them. And I never thought I'd say it as a kid but I really miss Linda.
i think this was a very successful period 4 mccartney... "flowers in the dirt" n "off the ground" were great albums, with awesome songs like this n BIKER LIKE AN ICON n OFF THE GROUND
Are there any words, that a worth discribing what Macca gives us everyday of our lives? I'm 17...and he was always there... Thank you a thousand times, Sir Paul

"This One" means "This Paul, the lookalike". He carries the God, the original deceased Paul, on his back, the painted eyes signify the plastic surgery on the lookalike, he calms the crisis by covering up the death.
Paul has always been my #1 idol. I placed him in a god-like status in my mind. I have always been a dedicated Beatles fan. I even went to a McCartney concert in '89. I would never ever desire the "Paul is Dead" to be true. But haven't you looked at the photos? Look at the shape of his head. They probably felt they had to do it so thousands of girls wouldn't have commited suicide in '66.
Well...I'm not sure what his real name is but I believe that Paul is Dead sadly...And I respect that you don't and I do wish you would respect that I do insted of trying to start an argument and I'm sorry if you're not it just seems that way a little to me
I hadn't heard this song in years, and then someone reminded me of it and I had to come find it. GOD, this is a damn good song. Definitely one of my favorites. Thanks for posting!

Definitely written for George.
And the video is the ultimate giveaway even if you don't immediatley recognise it in the lyrics.
And it was written around the time Paul asked George to write with him as well. "What kind of magic might have worked?"
