  • I would love to have this a ring tone!

  • I'm sure Linda McCartney was a lovely lady, but she is obviously tone deaf.

  • Comment removed

  • Sounds like Linda got a bit tired of this song. . .

  • She sings great now

  • Making fun of dead people in the internet makes you look like a dumbass. Seriously, it does! If you want to make fun of someone, this is why Justin Bieber's videos exist on youtube! For god's sake!

  • Who knew there was such an abundance of people who are filled with so very much hate in this world.

  • You can catch any singer on a bad day with bad monitors sing off key.

  • she sounds like the back stage american groupie she was paul dont like british women

  • If you think this is terrible, you should listen to Yoko sing. Even if this is her, she must've just been having a rough day..because I've seen raw footage of Paul and Linda singing outside in Scotland, while Mary and Heather run around, and she sounds like an angel. You know touring and singing everyday can take a toll.

  • I am responding to all of the idiots out there downing Linda. Who the hell are YOU?

  • Tit-Cancer was too good for that revolting bitch. I wish she suffered far worse and for much longer!

  • @publicanimal9 What the fuck is wrong with you? Why would you say such a thing? You're disgusting and truly sick in the head. I can't even find the right words to respond to this. Go fuck yourself...and while you're at it, try to find a heart.

  • @bladesofglory12 You are beyond contempt. Scum like you give the human race a bad name. I pity your poor parents for having such a vile child!

  • LMAF Linda sounds as good as that ass hole YoKo! hee hee just saying ( ^ u ^ )

  • You are a fucking bastard, if Linda doesn't like you just shut the fuck up. She was a great woman and Paul love her a lot when she was alive. Ashole.

  • @ChibiDhamar Hmm, I'm guessing that English is your second language? Grammar and spelling errors abound!

  • @earcandyfilms That's not the point of all this. fool

  • @ChibiDhamar Your last post gets a D+. "Fool" needs to be capitalized, then ended with a period. Wait - I hear them calling you back to the fryer at McDonalds! The orders are backing up. :)

  • @earcandyfilms Linda was almost as disgusting as Paul. Scumbags of a feather stick together!

  • no MAMEN QUIEN MONTO ESE VIDEO

  • She is an amazing person so shut up to all u haterz

  • Linda's "singing" is an embarrassment. Paul, why on earth would you want to do a "John and Yoko?"

  • :/ ouch bad night... i love u anyway linda

  • this sounds more like yoko!

  • cool

  • You lie.

  • Well....I knew that Linda wasn't too great at singing because a music/sound producer friend told me at concerts they would just remove her voice from the mix on the soundboard. He said Paul never mentioned it or inquired about it, but had to have known they were doing it, and had the good sense to not draw attention to it. He said Paul was always a real professional & nice guy to deal with and just enjoyed his wife around. Who can fault him for that.

  • Poor LInda....She's trying to sing a part meant for John Lennon ( holy christ - good luck) and she can't hear herself over the music (very tough for an amateur)...she sings well enough within her limits I'm sure...cut her some slack....

  • Sorry, but it IS Linda. Linda's awesome, but this IS her voice. Isolated harmony vocals are always surprising.

  • I Have watched this over 200 times and I lOVE it... NAHHHHH NAHHHHH hey hey!

  • Good Lord! LOL!

  • Mierda! que desafine es ese!!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • LMFAO!!!!!!!! GREAT CLIP!

  • i know its fake but still, LOL :)

  • It probably does matter if you sing in a band for a living and can't sing!

    She WAS a lovely lady though!

  • is she linda?or is it's a joke

  • Bullshit, she can sing better than that, how dare you disrespect a beautiful person.

  • @l8erspunky agreed. someone needs some psychiatric treatment (not you l8ers, the person who would overdub this stupid attempt at humor)...

  • NOBODY sings that bad !!! It's fake !!

  • Her voice causes acne.

  • She still sounds better that yoko ono

  • id rather buy linda mcartneys album than any of yokos

  • OMG, that is one of the worst voices I have ever heard besides yoko one.

  • What I wonder is, how was she on the keyboard? I always thought it was amazing that she went from photographer to keyboard for a rock group... not a trivial transformation.

  • It's true, she wasn't a good singer, she didn't even want to be a part of WINGS in the first place. But Paul pleaded with her, so as they can be together when they tour. Oh well, she is still cool as a photographer, keyboardist and humanitarian.

  • Linda sucked as a singer!

  • Linda McCartney - Wide Prairie this first only solo, she can sing a tune. This is not her voice, sorry, it is hoax

  • So she had a bad day. Wings would not have been Wings without her vocal!!!!!!

  • Well in my opinion she was like ringo. Not that great of singer but was still important.

  • @HarveyBacktheBeatles ARE YOU CALLING RINGO A BAD SINGER???!!!

  • @FatCucumberFilms No he just has a limited range, but hey so do I.

  • Most of us sing like this when we sing Beatles at parties. We sing because we enjoy it and the music. Not because we think we're great singers.That's why Linda is singing here. And, of course, because PM wanted her there because he was happy when she was around.

  • Allow me to share the facts if I may. Yes, this is Linda's voice. For all her beauty and benevolence, she was not a vocalist. This recording came from a former sound engineer under McCartney's employ who had had a beef with the musician and wanted to "expose" the truth, so he singled out her mic when taping this segment. McCartney himself, in an interview shortly after this was released, said "How sad that he (the engineer) felt he had to do this. I feel sorry for him." So there it is. Carry on.

  • @mistermaestro77 sorry, wrong! I knew Linda. How dare you. She had a really good voice. Shame.!

  • @mistermaestro77 Definitely not her voice, proven by the fact that the tamborine is not isolated as well, since she was playing it right next to the microphone.  A tambo is loud as shit ( I too am a sound man). Fake.

  • Comment removed

  • @damnbigfish Sorry that you think I or my information is fake. The tambourine reference that you make is a brief vid @ :28. But this is a collection of video snips put to one single sound track, hence the reason for not hearing a "loud as sh*t" tambourine. You actually CAN hear a tambourine in the background during the song. But my info is correct. No reason to bullsh*t. Have a great day.

  • @mistermaestro77 Hey! Didn't mean to offend with the "Fake" comment. Linda played the tambourine on this song, even if the specific videos synched to the audio are not from the same concert. The fact that you CAN hear the tambourine in the background means it is being played. Nobody else in the band to play it (they are busy). Even if she were playing it on her hip you would hear it louder than that with the vocal track. Just my opinion from doing sound for years. Feel free to disagree!

  • Comment removed

  • Does some of you really think that this clearly fake sound is real?! Huh!

  • It does not matter, she was Paul's wife. She was there because he wanted. He is Paul, he can do everything. Lucky her to be at his side, he love her so much, he did not care about it, he just wanted to be with her.

  • This is NOT Linda's voice. This is a joke.

  • @caprice6 Sorry. It IS Linda. Wish it wasn't; but it is.

  • @jharri1  I know it is a joke. I have heard Linda sing.

  • @caprice6 Sure. We all have. She was Cook of the House. This is her though. You can chalk it up to her not hearing herself in the monitors, or whatever you want.....but it's her.

  • @jharri1 I have heard Linda sing her first an only solo Seaside Woman release in 1977, this is not her voice, this is hoax.

  • @jharri1 I have heard Linda sing solo, this is NOT her voice.

  • @caprice6 Yes, it is. It definitely is. 

  • @caprice6 Sorry. It is.

  • @caprice6 Filthy bitch always had a rotten voice. Thank God she's dead!

  • @publicanimal9 I wish you were dead too

  • @caprice6 The feeling us more than mutual you fat ugly dog!

  • @publicanimal9 I wish I had a mirror to give you

  • @caprice6 Maybe she sounded better when you heard her sing, but this is definitely not a joke. She really was that bad.

  • @cynthiacher It is a joke, sorry I heard sing solo before, this is not her voice.

  • @caprice6 Yes, it IS her voice. It isn't a hoax.

  • this is a joke it is not linda some one put her voice over the recording can you not notice come on

  • @MrWonderful855 Sir, I would think you need to seek the LORD before you die.

  • Paul had Linda like John had Yoko. Every post underneath me is Rubberducky rubbish. You cant judge a talent like Pauls choice of love

  • Linda actually has a nice voice. This track is fake. Search YouTube for Paul and linda mccartney sings and you'll see that she can carry a tune...

    Haters....

  • sounds like chantal krevaziupchuck

    

  • This is fake. It was mocked up by a DJ from Boston. If anything it sounds like a bad quality bootleg of a Paul McCartney concert.

  • Having Linda as a member of Wings was nepotism at it's worst. She should never have gone on stage.

    How could Paul have been so stupid? Too many bong hits?

    There were maybe a few songs where her vocals were 'passable', such as the pre-Wings hits 'Another Day' and 'Uncle Albert', but for those Paul, seeing they fit her very limited vocal range, coached her more than he would later.

    Had he married Mary Hopkins, he have someone who could much more than carry a tune (and have musical offspring)!

  • Well after hearing this, I'd still say she is/was a 100 times better a singer than YOKO!! But you know what and really in LINDA'S defense, I'm sure some fan was a lil' too close to the mic during the performance...

  • terrible - cannot hit a note, sharp almost all the time.

  • good thing she was marriaged to paul lol ?

  • I agree that this is a hoax. It was supposedly done by a radio station that tinkered with it to make it sound bad. All you have to do is listen to Ram to hear that Linda had a lovely albeit quirky voice. And I hate to break it to you but even Paul and John, at the height of the vocal abilities, sometimes sang out of tune. That's true of every singer.

  • Doubt that this is real. Any soundman that let this out would never be hired again by anyone, since there'd be every chance he'd do it to someone else. And, as high profile a gig as sound for McCartney is, you'd better believe everyone would know who the culprit is.

  • Linda had a nice voice,and combined with the way Paul did composed some of his 70's songs so that his and hers voices combined magically,I would only say that I like Linda's voice.it is obvious that in this perfomance she don't care that much of singing...Big Deal.

    I love you Linda.

    I adore you Paul!!!

  • it hurts when i laugh

  • I love you Paul, I'm glad you and Linda were happily married, but no, this is just a no.

  • Give her a break-she NEVER wanted to sing on his albums and knew that wasn't a singer.

    It's unfair to judge someone who knew that she was no singer but was pushed and pusueded into doin t anyway.

  • See: Maybe I'm Amazed......

    See: My Love......

  • Linda sang with Paul because he insisted she be part of the show. Why did he insist? Because he loved her. She agreed, knowing full well she was no great singer. Why did she agree to perform? Because she loved him. All jokes aside, Beatle People, can't we forgive Paul for pushing Linda to sing in front of tens of thousands? I would be scared shitless!

  • @DannyLamb613 Me too. I couldn't have done it, no matter how much I loved someone. I admire her for doing it to get him back performing again.

  • Na na na nananana nananana hey Jude!!!**WOOT WOOT!

  • She put up with so much and got so little in return. She was from a wealthy family. She didn't need Paul. He needed her. I admire her. I hope her next life is much better. There are some very ignorant haters in this world. Just live to hate on people they know so little about.

  • @Neverever325 Paul needed Linda? Are you freaking high? They did not need each other for money, they both had plenty. Get freaking real!

  • Comment removed

  • @Tommyr I never said he needed her for money. He needed/wanted her for moral support. I get so tired of hearing men complain about golddiggers etc. It's just a form of misogynism. Like every woman ever attracted to a man has to be in it for something. Those two obviously loved each other. Linda didn't view herself as a big musical talent. Paul wanted her up on stage with him. She stayed in the marriage for the long haul because she loved the man, even after the rose colored glasses slipped off.

  • @Tommyr I'm real. Are you?

  • @Neverever325 No. I am a figment of your imagination. Carry on human!

  • What a vile slag Linda McCartney was. So glad she's dead. I hope her demise was very painful!

  • @MrWonderful855 wtf? She was a great woman-- fought for the rights of animals, raised 4 children quite well and made Paul McCartney a much better man in so many ways. Honestly, people like you make me very angry... It's ok that you don't like her, but comments like that makes me sick. No body deserves to die of cancer. No body. Okey, she couldn't sing. At all. But what does that matter?

  • @meloveyou38 Well, you are right in many front - so Linda's not the lead singer of the group, there is probably a good reason for that. But she is Paul's muse, his inspiration and his wife - that is ALL good enough for me.

  • @MrWonderful855 That's a bit harsh. She couldn't sing maybe but was a decent person. Eat a dick stupid. 

  • @Tommyr She wasn't 'decent'. The nasty cunt cheated some of her species into believing that meat isn't good for them. Humans are supposed to eat meat. She has caused numerous children to be born mal-nourished. Evil slag.

    And on top of it all, she married a horrible man and made people's ears bleed with her crap music. Awful twat.

  • @MrWonderful855 You're a fucking moron. I agree vegetarians are over the top and stupid nut other than that she was O.K. and a really good photographer. McCarney fucking rules, you are totally clueless.

  • @Tommyr Rubbish. The woman was a useless pile of shit. Idiots like you only defend her because they love the Beatles. Don't you think that's kind of sad? That your tiny mind can be so easily manipulated? If this talentless cunt had never been shagged by your favourite singer then you wouldn't care less about her. Morons like you would love Adolf Hitler if he married your favourite singer. I pity people like you, You have no mind of your own.

  • @MrWonderful855 You're a tool. Enjoy your miserable life.

  • @MrWonderful855 and your the asshole who attacks her for no reason, she fucking motivated Paul to write as well as he did, its called a muse, love, ect. her only purpose wasn't simply to contribute music.

  • @TheSupaScoops Well that's another reason. Paul is a shower of shit too and he shouldn't be motivated. Ugly, droopy-faced, hair-dying old queen. Hope he snuffs it next!

  • @MrWonderful855 Heather? Go away and get a life.

  • @MrWonderful855 fuck you. you deserve death.

  • @RichardElden HOW COULD YOU SAY THAT YOU SICK PERSON! NO ONE DESERVES TO DIE OF CANCER! YOU BASTARD!

    I really hope it doesnt happen to you, cos then you'll know how it feels.

    You insult people with cancer everywhere.

    Im asshamed to even have seen your comment.

  • better than bieber.

  • @RichardElden Well that's a horrible thing to say. I'm sure she'd say the same for you, bitch.

  • @RichardElden And I m so happy to say I wish you the same, ASSHOLE!

  • Paul and John were great musicians but they were also pussy whipped wimps. Linda croaks, and in less than 2 years Paul marries that physcopath, John marries a screeching zipperhead harpie from hell Georeg goes off on a hindu horseshit binge and lets Eric Clapton steal his wife, (with friends like that) It seems like Ringo was the only one who didnt go completely nuts. But the beatles still rock!

  • Eeeee...nuff...!

  • excuse me, but as a musician myself.....its the entire group that makes what is heard...we cover each others booboos to create a decent sound. No one is perfect, she was part of the sound that created what was heard. Notice when she was off-key she stopped. I don't think she was bad at all...

  • this is NOT from 1968. how would they have been able to isolate it that well? its also NOT Ringo drumming. The production is clearly 90's. Either its a hoax or it isnt but its not from 1968.

  • not that funny

  • If you think SHE is bad, just put on a rap CD. You may change your mind.

  • Way to take advantage of her. This is from 1968 (Hey Jude), so very early on. She actually later learned to sing quite well enough. Paul had an album put together of all her songs even.

    Listen to the song "Love's Fully Glory". Her voice is actually very angelic there.

  • @TheOneartist = it's not '68 .....Knebworth 1990 I think.

  • This was from Knebworth. If you listen to that, you don't even hear her or the other backup singer really. They were mixed so low. The audience doesn't really hear this.

  • When I first heard this I thought it was a drunk fan in the audience

  • i hate the logo

  • LOL xD haha!

    anyway maybe she wasn't such a good musician and singer but there are artists who are much worse these days and they are still rich & famous [mostly because of their looks] :( isn't that sad?

    and also I find it lovely that Paul put her in the band instead of taking advantage of tours to be with lots of other women... he really loved her<3

  • She does have a "certain" style! O.o

  • obviously fake...linda mccartney couldn't sing this good

  • Linda herself agreed that she was not a good singer.

  • Sorry, she was a wonderful human being, just a lowsy musician and singer. It's ok and not "hatefull" to admit she had no business sticking her nose into music.

  • Ug! Just listen to the son "Poison Ivy". God-aweful crap.

  • @pinz2022 Actually Paul taught her how to play keyboard then asked her himself to be in the band because he wanted his lovely Linda on stage with him(:

  • ow.

  • *duets w/ Linda on the vocals* Anyone seen Yoko, anybody?

  • If she was good enough for Paul, then she's good enough for me.

  • you gotta admit that Linda is better then yoko at being a person and a musician. Yoko is just questionable. Yoko seemed kinda like a "dragon lady" as some would put it. and she was also a terrible musician. the only reason producers let her in the recording studio was probably because John was with her. i could never see how or why john had fallen in love with her but he did. we all have different tastes.

  • uuh...hmm...well linda was the love of Paul's life. according to Paul, she was very supportive of him and his music career especially in his post-beatles career. listen to Maybe Im Amazed. McCartney wrote the song to show his appreciation for his wife for giving him the strength to work again after the beatles had broken up. we really can't judge Linda on her vocals by any means. she might have not been a musician but she was a brilliant photographer! paul loved her lots. we gotta respect that.

  • i finally found it

    the mp3

    now i have 2 of them

    and one is slightly edited (for some reason)

  • Hi there, check out my Linda tribute music video, search for:

    'Linda Station Amazed'

  • There's no way she knew how bad she sucked. Why didn't her old man say "Ah, well then, Linda....babe...you sing like crap....so please stop. Don't even pretend. Just step away from the microphone"

  • Linda may not be able to sing, but she loves him, and you know that can't be bad. And let's have some respect for the dearly departed. I'll never forget Paul launching into Rick Nelson’s Lonely Town at the end of the Tribute to Linda concert. They were in love and that's all they needed. Linda didn't need to sing. All she needed was love, precious little of which is shown in these posts.

  • Is there something wrong with her earpiece? It sounds like she can't hear herself.

  • OMG this is so fucking mean...I almost pissed myself laughing!

  • This widely circulated bootleg actually does Linda an injustice. I have raw video of Linda singing along with Paul live in a TV studio and a hotel room and she sings perfectly in key. She did backing harmonies on many Wings & Paul solo tracks and was in key. And that was LONG before autotune or pitch correction.

  • THIS IS NOT FAKE!!! it was even on the Howard Stern show and he writes about it in his book Private Parts.

  • @piggies1 - Duh! You are so sharp! The blatantly obvious! You don't miss a thing! HA HA HA HA

  • @earcandyfilms This is real. It's written about in the McCartney biography called A Life

  • @earcandyfilms - the funny thing is that this is NOT fake. This was played 20 years ago on the radio - way before everyhting was FAKE and GAY! haha - Look it up. The sound guy just always kept her mic OFF, or mostly OFF...

  • @piggies1 There was one from a Soldier Field concert and she sounded much like this then. Paul was able to stop some from surfacing but there were so many. He even began to explain that she was in the band for the vibe and not her vocal talent. I was surprised to hear it.

  • @piggies1 this is NOT fake

  • @piggies1 It's not fake. She was never a real singer and if you look into the history Wings you'll see her being there was a divisive factor. That's her singing.

  • esa voz no es de linda mccartney no essss ""is false the voice""

  • She is amazing, so cheerful, she knew she couldn't sing but she did it anyway to support her husband and they were a hell of a coupple. She seems so happy when she starts singing the "better better BETTER WAAA!!" I love this and I hope I find someone like Linda

  • @CookOfTheHouse

    Oh, bullshit.

  • She is AWESOME! Hahahaha... At least she doesn't scream the entire time he is singing, like Yoko did. Hatchet-faced be-otch! If you swung her by the ankles, you could split a log with her face!

  • i have 2 versions of this MP3, one slightly edited

    but this is NOT fake!!!

  • HOLY CRAP THIS IS A P.O.S.!!!!!!

  • This is great compared to those guys in his band going woo ooo to "Jet" when he played on SNL. Paul was fab as always though.

  • @nostalgiajunkie70 "Jet" rules.

  • this is from Knebworth 1990

  • The true story about this is that it was recorded when she and the band were miming. Like a lot of people, rather than just mouth silently, she made these noises - it was rather sneakily recorded and circulated. Neither Paul nor her would claim that Linda was the greatest singer but his is just cruel bullying - and I speak as someone who can take or leave their music.

  • Perfection is boring. I'll take this over "perfection" any day. Long live individuality in music.

  • @houseofchintz Then you seriously need to get your hearing checked

  • @cast390 I have a dip in my right ear at 4000.00 Hz.

  • She sounds like *PAUL WHY DID YOU MAKE GET UP HERE* !!!

  • I'm starting to wonder if her being in Wings might've had something to do w/ her connection to someone in the band.

  • @bailinnumberguy

    lol!!!
