Minor classic. McCartney has great songs most people have never heard. Even his weaker albums have a few fantastic tunes. The album version of Press, though, is poor.
Great video. The song, ...is not so good. A great excuse for being late to work, arguably the greatest artist/entertainer of the 20th century was shooting a vedio and held up the trains. But there were even a-hoes who were pissed when the Beatles played the rooftop and disrupted their workday.
The little girl at 3:13 is cute. Someone 5 months back said something bad about her. I like when she pops up. Maybe if I read the whole thread leading up to the comment, I might make sense. Or maybe that person thinks demons are cute.
I remember this. Pissed me off as I was late for work while they pissed around delaying the trains. I shouted at him to get off and go do it somewhere else but was ignored. Too arrogant to apologise.
@wuf820 Oh come one, grumpy pants, that must have made for some kind of fine story that day, getting to work and saying, "Paul McCartney made me late!". Better that than the train being bombed.
Why is it, that i love EVERY paul mccartney album. be it wings or not.? idk. you tell me, i just know that im never disapointed with him, and lately ive just been buying his albums before i even listen to them!!
@TheBeatlesArchive I do the same thing! I love all of his work! he is just a genuis. I reccomend u take a look at his new remasters, u can find trailers in his page on youtube, but buy them in his site, u have a better selection, more options are they are way less expensive!
i'm pretty sure Paul wouldn't ride the subway unless he had two bodyguards the size of hulk hogan after John's murder on the street a handful of years before t
@bronzeonion Per suggestion on District Dave's forum by ajax the warrior (I know you're there too, recognize your name!), it is most likely just the guard.
@sayuri60s Paul has also been seen on a bus recently. He says whenever possible he likes to use public transportation, he doesnt let fame ruin normal life. He talked about it an an interview in 2010 that when people recognize him he just says come sit by me and they have an everyday conversation and most people are respectful that its his personal life not a concert
@QueenBeatlesWings I read that story too and I have to say that besides (obviously) his music, I also admire Paul for the person he is. He's not a saint (thank God he isn't) and he's allowed to make mistakes, but he seems to have his feet firmly on the ground and by all signs managed to remain 'normal'. Which is quite a feat when you are Paul McCartney, 'musical genius of Beatles, Wings and after' fame. So many lesser 'stars' can't handle it at all & become total freaks. I say, Good on ya, Paul!
Love Sir Paul but this one was much weaker than his stuff from "Chaos and Creation in the Backyard" or "Flaming Pie". The video was interesting but seems to drag at times.
Awesome video! I love on The McCartney Years DVD how Paul comments about people's reactions like some sang along some ignored him some acted embarrased others got autographs
Take away the awful '80's production on this and it could translate really well live. I've always loved the tune but the lyrics do nothing for me I gotta say!
no backlap.....the comments by hippojuice23 were ridiculous based on the facts at hand...not opinions. McCartney's accomlishments over a 40+ year career with the Beatles and on his own are there for all the world to see + judge. I don't care who remembers me but the world will remember McCartney for his achievements of which there are too many to possibly mention.
Paul has said that he often rides the Tube and buses in London, by himself. He says no one hassles him and he's met some interesting people this way. He enjoys fans who (politely) say hello to him. He even had done this in NYC. A few years ago on a NYC bus, an older black woman said to him "Paul McCartney! What are you doing on a bus?" He smiled and said "Goin' uptown!".
Nowhere near Band on the Run, Off The Ground, Run Devil Run, Unplugged, Broad Street, Tug if War, Pies of Peace, Flowers in the Dirt.
Not even near other Wings or solo stuff, this is gotta be the worst, or one of the worst Macca albums, cause it's too plastic, like other bad stuff from the 80's.
@jaiframen It's a play on the line in Wizard Of Oz "I have a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore". Paul said that the word "Kansas" didn't scan very well in the song's structure, so he checked a US map and found that "Oklahoma" was a neighbouring state and scanned better. It's the same theme, someone from the provinces discovering city life.
I think this was Pauls lowest point of creativity .Apart from spys like us I can't this of a worse song he produced . I enjoy the bulk of his solo work but after buying Press to Play I almost gave up on him doing anything interesting ever again . I'm pleased to say I was wrong and these days he is producing great material again .
The reason I like this one is because it reminds me going around London a while back. I adore London and the entire country of England so much. These days I cant afford going back again tho. This one is a keeper.
I would have killed someone to be on the Tube that day. Please touch meeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I would have never washed again and my brain would have exploded. Honest. If Destroyed True, If Not Destroyed True xxxxxxxxxxxxx IDT/INDT xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
It really is great to see people who actually enjoy the press to play album. In hindsight, McCartney feels making that album was a mistake. Doesn't worry me as i have enjoyed it very much.
I love every genre of Paul and I don't think the death of John had anything to do with his music in the 80's. For the most part, Paul is cheesy!!! That's what makes him so great :)
He can take us for a quick day trip; skiing but only if he can make us fight! ta keep up with him!..Where Is This!..*** PRESS!***(I'll teach you how to ski for free.) 'aka fox.rock'sczar!
when i was a i kid i thought this was a real footage about a real Paul s travelling on the subway. i didnt see all those ppl as they actors they really were. Few years later, that "lie" didn t bother me,..( sorry about my bad english, i`m from Agentina)
Actually, they were no actors. All of them were real people and that one is Paul travelling on the subway. If you buy "The McCartney Years" 3 DVD box set (paquete de tres DVD's, pues, jeje) and you select the Audio Commentaries option you can hear Paul saying about this video that it came up as an idea of filming him travelling by subway as he used to do still in the 80's and 90's. En resumen: Es Paul viajando en metro y la gente que ves no fueron actores. Paul solía viajar en metro. ¡Saludos!
No I'm not crazy, but I'm a musician who looks at it without any prejudice! Too much synths, that would be true if it was a current record. But it came out in 1986 and then it was up to date! I mean it's still rock'n'roll with guitar solos, but with an 80's touch in sounds&production. As a songwriter I have to say that the songs on Press to play are very underrated, I don't know why. The album is full of great and varied compositions. This you must admit even if you don't like synths!
to like or not synths is not the point (listen to the 3 and 4 album of P.Gabriel, these ARE really good albums full of synths).
I'm musician too. I listen to without prejudice but with my ears ;-)
seriously : i think that there're crappy orchestrations, tunes are not "great" (sorry I don't have the word in english). I really think that the '80 were a bad period to Paul, with the murder of John. Only 10 songs are wonderfull for me (Lonely Nights, Say say, A Long Ago)
Ok, I guess it makes no sense to discuss with you about "Press to play" when you don't like the whole 80's period of Paul. For me it will always be an important album, I bought it when I was 14 and I loved it from the beginning. Peter Gabriel is one of heroes too and I own every album, but I don't compare Peter and Paul, they have completely different styles how they use their sounds and compose songs. If you're really a musician who listens with his ears you should notice the high quality ;-)
@timonraphael> :-) I don't throw away ALL the '80 period of Paul. I love 10 songs. Ok, maybe 12... to please you ;-) I don't compare the style of PMC a PG, i've juste said that PMC don't know how to write music for computers, and PG yes. That's all. Just listen the difference beetwen "back to the egg" and "Mc II" ... But I think that we will be ok on one thing : PMC is more than a god for me, he IS the music and the happiness to play music.
The further away I get from 80s music the more I love it and realize how unique it was. Pauley will always be one of my favorites as he managed to change with the times - yet still remain true to his unique sound/ability...an amazing accomplishment coming from the greatest, most embedded popular music groups of all time. I also love/d Gabriel. Though I do believe Sir P could have a ballad hit again...or make a splash in the classical music arena - I am sad that greats like him are in the past.
I haven't heard too much of the stuff from those albums but for what I've heard I wasn't too impressed, I do like "My Brave Face" and "Take it Away" alot though, the rest of what I've heard I just wasn't too impressed with
I was in this video on accident as a little girl in London visiting family! I am going up the escalator in a yellow and green shirt close to the end.....thought I would never see this video again as I lost my copies!
hey hippojuice23.............when you're worthless existence on this planet is over...NO ONE will know who you were or anything about you.....McCartney is the most successful singer/songwriter in music history having sold some 200 million records + has broken every record one could break with the Beatles and on his own.....so please.....do not make fun of anything that he does...his worst is better than anything you could ever hope to achieve! Sorry...end of story!
I'm from the outskirts of London so often go on the tube, when I saw this video for the first time my headnearly exploded from surprise that Sir Paul gets the same train!
This is the fabled video. I had been telling a friend for YEARS, I had seen Paul in a subway singing "Press". He got so he didn't believe me. Thank you, YouTube! lol
One of my favorite Paul songs, and one of my all-time favorite videos, just because how awesome would that be? A few years later I finally got to London and rode the tube, all excited because I had seen it on this video first.
Me too...for years, I could remember how much I really liked it but for the life of me I could not remember the name of the song...thank god for YouTube.

Pathetic. Over-produced schlock could've been sung by Rod Stewart at his worst!

Is he always happy?
Well, I guess I would be too if I were him.

Once again, Sir Paul proves he can mix in with the common folk and have a good time, bravo!

Press became mine and my girlfriends codeword. To express what we were thinking thoughts about each other, when we were in a crowd. Great memories.

A nice budget video for Macca.
At least he didn't have to fork out for a taxi.

Jesus! What an excrutiating video - Benign Macca among the masses. Hope the cunt doesn't mind the gap!

I love this video, at first so innocent, then you listen to the lyrics... And, see how incredibly flirtacious Paul is acting.... Haha.

This is the fabled video. I had been telling a friend for YEARS, I had seen Paul in a subway singing "Press". He got so he didn't believe me. Thank you, YouTube! lol

One of my favorite Paul songs, and one of my all-time favorite videos, just because how awesome would that be? A few years later I finally got to London and rode the tube, all excited because I had seen it on this video first.

This song should have been on one of Paul's hits releases (even if it only hit #21 in the US, it still is a great song!)

It would be pretty cool to be on a train with Paul. You could tell he's enjoying it and also wants everyone to notice.

At the time this was made just a few years after Lennon was killed I can only wonder what type of security he had present.
