@evilzebra1412 Keep up the good work of spreading good music, you will find that sometimes you'll find others with similar tastes and you'll have a new friend. The funny thing is that this song is kinda like an ingenius children's song. It always cracks me up with the whole Butter pie bit.
we're so sorry, uncle albert, but the kettles on the boil and we're so easily called away...........hands across the water, hands across the sky, heads across the water, heads across the sky......
I've heard this, time to time, since I was a wee little kid. And this is the first time I realized it was "hands across the water (water), HEADS across the sky." Thought it was hands both times. Ah well, just goes to show you're never too old to learn something new about old songs.
On another note: this song has inspired me to find a recipe for butter pie. Having already made marshmallow and lemonade pies, this is next.
@evilzebra1412 ikr the same thing happen to me in computers one guy was like what are you listing to and i let him listen and he had the same reaction i love this music
Great post EGGMAN! One of my fav albums when I was just a kid. Always LOVED the "Uncle Albert" portion of this song. Such a magic melody and expertly "orchestrated". George Martin influence no doubt. Brilliant!! ~KK
It's like Band on the Run has two very different sections, at different tempos... like I Want You (She's So Heavy)... which had even more changes in tempo/rhythm.
let's just put it this way those of you that cannot form in your minds what to say...there are none at this time and never will be writers as mccartney and his fellow band.. so don't bother posting if you were born after the 60's. , neverthe less God bless you and if you have nothing good to say don't bother
Ahh, what a cute, free-form, period piece from Sir Paul. Lovely to hear it again .. really brings back fond memories from the era when this single & the LP were released. This song really grabbed me .. then & now. Being a fan of Brian Wilson & his unique gifts for musical composition (as well as The Beatles, & many others), & being mindful of Paul & Brian's friendship formed from the mid 60s onwards - I personally can see a considerable influence of BW at work in this composition by Paul.
@chelseabelle925 Sir Paul is famous for taking two incomplete pieces of music and putting them together. In My Life is another example of this style of writing with the Beatles.
Well it is a plant that goes way back in time . Actually Jesus Christ used it in its oil form to help cure skin problems. The herb I am speaking of is Cannabis Sativa or Indica Which Sir Paul is known to have a fancy for. Legalize it don`t criticize it .

@chelseabelle925 - there's a nice wiki article on this 1971 hit - I frequently 'search' as I listen to learn the history of songs or artists.
I added this to my 1971 list, one of 110 playlists for every year since 1900 - you can listen like you're back in the day !!
Over 300 more playlists feature specific artists and mosts lists play about 2 hours. I might be the biggest music archive on youtube !
