I couldn't even think of 65-year-old Paul making me such a gift of writing and recording Mr. Bellamy... Who else on this damned planet could create such a piece of art? Oh my...
In this song he hits very low notes and very high. He has a fantastic vocal range. And he doesn't even have a drink of water during his live shows. What a freak of nature!
Memory Almost Full was recorded beginning in 2003 and completed in 2006. It was sent for album art and disc manufacture in March, 2007 to be in time for a June 1, 2007 release. This is clearly one month before Chocolate Rain debuted on the Internet on April 22, 2007. There is no way Paul could have heard Chocolate Rain in 2006 at the time Mr. Bellamy was recorded. It is either a coincidence or Mr. Bellamy was bootlegged or the piano piece heard by someone who used it out of turn.
Sir Paul McCartney -- yeah, the guy from the Beatles -- approached Thom Yorke about recording a duet, but Yorke, who has previously collaborated with Björk and notably PJ Harvey on her tune "This Mess We're In," denied the rock legend. Perhaps he's more of a John kind of guy?
@ZurGiOfficial He turned Paul down he says because he thought the piano piece was too difficult for him to complete properly and do justice to. That is a direct quote from Thom Yorke.
I don't know about you guys, but it seems like this song seems to be displaying a method of parenting or something. Like, when Mr. Bellamy refuses to come down, the people are like, "We're going to force you to come down, we don't care what you say, Blahblahblah." But then things kind of get softer and they just start begging, just like, "Come down." Like parents when they yell and scream to get the child to do something, but then a few hours later, they burst into tears to convince them. Stupid
@Nullo247 Chocolate Rain copies off this song if there is any copying--not the other way around. Mr. Bellamy pre-dates Chocolate Rain by about 1 year.
Sir Paul,Here we go again.."BeautifulFriend". Mr.BelleAmi...You get your arse down and HELP! my daughter. Again: Take it all..SS#012-46-2951...though i once was more than a number. GET DOWN NOW!
It is also personal to Paul, like House of Wax and some of the songs off Flowers in the Dirt - You know the rumours that Linda was going to leave him, check it out xx
It makes sence... and McCartney's certainly one who jumps at the chance to hide messages to his MILLIONS AND MILLIONS of fans (YOU HATERS!) Seeing as he was the "Paul is Dead" subject...
You can come on to my HOUSE OF WAX and sing GRATITUDE if you want to, you can meet MR BELLAMY too, stomp73 is gonna stomp on shit, meris123 really is on heat, hpug is gonna dance around tonight.

yeah, same here. the beatles gave so much in their young lives and we continue to love em. paul is great and we love him so. good on you phoenixAsh333!!
That would have been the ultimative reunion song for the Beatles in 1995. Imagine, if Paul and george sang together the backing vocals. The deep voice part would be sang by Ringo and Paul (the part at 1:02). That's an amazing idea..
Arone64, despite being a Beatles fan, I can't help but be amazed at how bad Ringo Starr's drumming is. Most bands in the early 60's, with a few exceptions, HAD to use a session drummer. On songs like You Won't See me people can be given the impression he is intentionally slowing down the tempo; it works, but at least a few more takese - or a sess drummer - would've made the records better.
Is this his best song since band on the run? I think Paul has only had a handful of great songs post-Beatles, and with Maybe I'm Amazed and some of the Chaos and Creation tracks like Jenny Wren this is the tops. Though this one has a certain magical mystery tour-ish vibe to it.
oops, in my last comment i forgot the word best. it was supposed to be like this: this is one of the songs sir paul has EVER made. He is a wonderful caring person. He also recently had some kind of heart surgery. So show some respect! rate and discuss this version please
this is one of the songs sir paul has EVER made. He is a wonderful caring person. He also recently had some king of heart surgery. So show some respect!
hpug...what is your problem? Why do you spend so much time on Mccartney songs if you obviously don't care for him? Pretty safe to know you're a freak if you can honestly say you don't like Mccartney. Just for fun, tell me your idea of good music? Go away hpug.
I totally agree, that's what I love about the Beatles and Paul McCartney in particular! He's a very unique artist in my opinion, always experimenting with something new!
Paul enjoys reading peoples ideas of what his songs are about. This one he said was a fictional character standing on a skyscraper. Will he or won't he jump. My first was that it was about a cat stuck up in a tree with fireman hanging on a limp trying to steady as the cat won't come down. Steady lads...
I'll never understand the lack of mentality in those who take the time to trash something they don't like...as opposed to just moving on. So many good things about the internet, and yet for all the good it is offset by those who just like to start trouble. Oh, well. Rock on, Macca!
Oh, I don't mind taking the time to put trash in its place. The difference is people like you just like to stir up trouble. Just calling you out on it, "friend" :-) This is a great song
It's okay for you to "call me on it..." it doesn't matter to me. To simply go along and say this song is great would be lying. Not stirring up trouble, just chiming in. I was also putting trash in it's place, Mr. Bellamy is trash.
I can now see where all these rantings and ravings from meris123 and his multiple personas (i.e. hpug, MaccaAttacker, etc) are coming from. It's all that rat milk that he's been gulping down as recommended by wacky Heather Mills. His desperate bid to quench his thirst as a result of the rodenticides present in his bloodstream has made him gone mad and we are all now witnessing his dumass attacks on Paul McCartney.
Good grief. The only delusionary state has to do with those who blame Bush for everything wrong in the world and their lives. I suggest you get one. Wait until Hillary gets into office if you think we have problems now! FYI - Paul described his writing of this song as an opera - made up characters.
I know people have already made the possible link between Matt Bellamy of MUSE. It would be nice to know that Macca has given another musical genius a nod in their music.
I am writing this as I'm listening to the fantastic Matt Bellamy 'Butterflies and Hurricanes' piano solo. That always blows me away, saying that I also love the piano riff in this song; it's real good fun to play
Well, for a musician who never learned how to read music and only used his ears.... I think he's pretty damn good. All musicians have their ups and downs when they make an album. I would rather listen to the album Memory Almost Full (which I think is great) than listen to some crappy whiny emo chemical romance that's on the radio now.
By the by..Paul McCartney can sure as hell read music. He just wrote an oratorio. Be hard to do that if you can't read music. That's why he's so much better than a lot of todays musicians.
"Mr Bellamy" sounds VERY Abbey Road-ish, whispers of "Maxwell's Silver Hammer" in his piano playing and storyline. "Nod Your Head", with a bit of an "I'm The Walrus" intro, reminds me of "Helter Skelter" and "Live And Let Die" for some reason. Great to see Concord Records release it as a music video clip featuring a host of 20-something babes and Paul McCartney and posted on youtube [Video #3]. This album is a blast from the past!!!!!
If anyone wanted proof against the "Paul Is Dead" conspiracy, just play him this song. He's still got it. He never lost it. No way could this NOT be Paul, it's that good. It's my favorite track on the whole "Memory Almost Full" album.
From a lot of posts I have read regarding McCartney's Memory Almost Full, Macca rocks with the best of Abbey Road and Sergeant Pepper's. He's still rockin' like it was the The Beatles all over again. That Was Me - one of my favorite songs on the album, it's early Beatles, sounds more like She's A Woman and convinced me to get this album.

When I first listened to Paul's latest LP I was dissapointed. I liked only a couple of songs. After a 2nd and 3rd listening all the magic of the Sgt. Pepper and Abbey Road LPs came out. Now I find myself at work with "Nod Your Head" playing over and over in my head, while at home I just can't stop playing "That Was Me" in my stereo system.The songs of MEMORY ALMOST FULL are so much like Wings and The Beatles.. it's just perfect !
Memory Almost Full is a blast from the past. "Vintage Clothes" reminds me of the magic that we got from the Sergeant Pepper's album. You also get a bit of Here Comes The Sun and Band On The Run on this track. Commentators ain't wrong when they say a lot of the tracks have a real Wings-esque sound. Thanks for the album, Paul
hpug your absusive comments on these vids are purile, and frankly rather tedious. If you can't articulate a proper discussion without resorting to drivel not even worthy of the playground then just go away. You are the classic example of the inverse ratio between the size of the mouth and the size of the brain

Errm...how about his integeral creative genius to the greatest rock band there ever was or will be The Beatles,if you havnt heard of them.Amazing tracks from the Wings period,on albums Like RAM and Band on The Run, Live and Let Die, Mull of Kyntire(highest selling single until Band Aid),and an entry in the Guiness Book of Records as the most successful singer song writer in history...for a start.

It occurred to me early on that this song may have been Paul's sly comment on George Bush--("in the delusionary state" was my tip-off!

Good grief. The only delusionary state has to do with those who blame Bush for everything wrong in the world and their lives. I suggest you get one. Wait until Hillary gets into office if you think we have problems now! FYI - Paul described his writing of this song as an opera - made up characters.

I know people have already made the possible link between Matt Bellamy of MUSE. It would be nice to know that Macca has given another musical genius a nod in their music.
I am writing this as I'm listening to the fantastic Matt Bellamy 'Butterflies and Hurricanes' piano solo. That always blows me away, saying that I also love the piano riff in this song; it's real good fun to play

This is McCartney just as in the days of Maxwell's Silver Hammer, Rocky Racoon.

Wow, what a horrible song. Over-engineered as always. Uninventive crap. Some people should be forced into retirement. It's time Paul.

Well, for a musician who never learned how to read music and only used his ears.... I think he's pretty damn good. All musicians have their ups and downs when they make an album. I would rather listen to the album Memory Almost Full (which I think is great) than listen to some crappy whiny emo chemical romance that's on the radio now.

I don't like emo. I like the Beatles. This is not good. Paul has done good work, this is not it.

By the by..Paul McCartney can sure as hell read music. He just wrote an oratorio. Be hard to do that if you can't read music. That's why he's so much better than a lot of todays musicians.

"Mr Bellamy" sounds VERY Abbey Road-ish, whispers of "Maxwell's Silver Hammer" in his piano playing and storyline. "Nod Your Head", with a bit of an "I'm The Walrus" intro, reminds me of "Helter Skelter" and "Live And Let Die" for some reason. Great to see Concord Records release it as a music video clip featuring a host of 20-something babes and Paul McCartney and posted on youtube [Video #3]. This album is a blast from the past!!!!!

If anyone wanted proof against the "Paul Is Dead" conspiracy, just play him this song. He's still got it. He never lost it. No way could this NOT be Paul, it's that good. It's my favorite track on the whole "Memory Almost Full" album.

From a lot of posts I have read regarding McCartney's Memory Almost Full, Macca rocks with the best of Abbey Road and Sergeant Pepper's. He's still rockin' like it was the The Beatles all over again. That Was Me - one of my favorite songs on the album, it's early Beatles, sounds more like She's A Woman and convinced me to get this album.

When I first listened to Paul's latest LP I was dissapointed. I liked only a couple of songs. After a 2nd and 3rd listening all the magic of the Sgt. Pepper and Abbey Road LPs came out. Now I find myself at work with "Nod Your Head" playing over and over in my head, while at home I just can't stop playing "That Was Me" in my stereo system.The songs of MEMORY ALMOST FULL are so much like Wings and The Beatles.. it's just perfect !

Memory Almost Full is a blast from the past. "Vintage Clothes" reminds me of the magic that we got from the Sergeant Pepper's album. You also get a bit of Here Comes The Sun and Band On The Run on this track. Commentators ain't wrong when they say a lot of the tracks have a real Wings-esque sound. Thanks for the album, Paul

hpug your absusive comments on these vids are purile, and frankly rather tedious. If you can't articulate a proper discussion without resorting to drivel not even worthy of the playground then just go away. You are the classic example of the inverse ratio between the size of the mouth and the size of the brain

Errm...how about his integeral creative genius to the greatest rock band there ever was or will be The Beatles,if you havnt heard of them.Amazing tracks from the Wings period,on albums Like RAM and Band on The Run, Live and Let Die, Mull of Kyntire(highest selling single until Band Aid),and an entry in the Guiness Book of Records as the most successful singer song writer in history...for a start.
