@JimmyCos "Coming Up", it was an Australian No.1 in 1980, the same year that Sparks went top 10 there with "When I'm With You". I'd love to see Sparks record that song with Paul & Ringo for Red Nose Day this year or the next - let's petition Mercury Records to record it!! :D

[Biigfish559]

@JimmyCos It's called "Coming Out (Like a Flower) or was it coming up, by Wings, his post Beadles group

[fatpizzaman]

@Biigfish559 it was Paul as a solo artist. Wings had split up by then after Laurence Juber and Steve Holly were removed from the band, and Denny Laine decided to quit as well. McCartney II is a great album, some cute, mawkish and quirky numbers like "Temporary Secretary", "Waterfalls" (which TLC nicked some of the lyrics for their own song of the same name), and "Everybody Bogey".

@JimmyCos

Coming Up

[lovesGenet]

So nicce to see this ffrom the Mael's brothers!

[muttilo]

Great taste boys !

[asceses]

I say this with the greatest respect but Ron who to me was always so very weird looking has im supprised to say one of thee sexiest speaking voices iver ever heard, .... by the way, this is the first time i have heard him speak ... articulate both of them and very interesting

[fatpizzaman]

I agree. He has also done lead vocals on a couple of Sparks songs as well. I met him in person back in 2001 in Melbourne and he is one of the most friendliest and polite rock musicians I've ever had the pleasure to meet.

[asceses]

Oh how cool

[TheJester1962]

Ron does a superb impersonation of Walt Disney & Clark Gable rolled into one.

[wcialrluisaom]
