wow... evocative of Blackbird. The entire Flaming Pie album has been a calming force over a turbulent time. Does it get old hearing the words, "I love Paul?" "Beautiful Night" is my fave; must find...
@Rdog4501 yes, this was written for Maureen Starkey - Ringo's first wife who still loved Ringo when she died of cancer they were still friends in a way
@QueenBeatlesWings - Ringo was at her bedside when she died so they must have still been close. She was with him when it all started and all through the Beatles. She was also from humble stock in Liverpool so I am sure she shared things in his life that no one else could understand or share.
I have played this song since I bought the Album ,Way back in the 80's? It's a Paul 'pick me uppa'.Reminds me Chicago my burb, of which my track's name was Willow Wood! My Grandmother & I would play with my horse Missy on her farm..under the Willow tree! I have played this song every time I feel 'weak' ever since! It's so inspiring , true words! I now play 4 my daughter! Paul is TIMELESS with his lyrics! & We all have these sorts of story's..Thank-U 4 Paul's words in the beginning! NICE ;)
When Ringo's former wife Maureen died,Ringo was devastated by her death, so McCartney wrote the song "Little Willow", which appears on his 1997 album Flaming Pie, in her memory, and he dedicated it to her children.
My daughter Gwen was born to this song 11 years ago today. It fits her perfectly. The third of three kids. She is strong and resilient. Funny, sweet, strong and very loved.
@walshfan2470 yes, Maureen , RIngo's 1st former wife died and Paul wrote this for Ringo and his kids to help with the grief of the loss its on the Flaming Pie 1977 album
This song still chokes me up. In May we got a phone call from my aunt. My grandmother was dying and we needed to come see her one last time. I was in such pain at that time, and I didn't even realize it. It was shock more than anything. In our mad rush to leave, I made time to put this song on my iPod, and listening to it for the next week or so. No other song would do. As soon as she saw my Dad, Grandma passed away. This song soothes me and I feel cradled in its gentleness.
hey this is as good as his best. must be wierd to be paul. his best work is so good that i goes down w the best music of all time. however you can count on him to never know garbadge from brilliance. he has broken my heart so many times w bullshit. yet when this guy hits it? the most beautiful music of all time. we should recognize that we live in a time that allows us to hear and witness a genious that will stand the test of time
@harck1 I often wonder what Paul would have accomplished if he had been born into the same circumstances as the great classical composers, such as Mozart and Beethoven, and had proper grounding in musical composition and notation. I think that he might have been their equal. Certainly, his gift for melody is as great as the best of them. Regardless,, we are indeed fortunate to have him in our midst writing the kind of music that he does.
I understand, but I love Beatles, Mozart, Beethoven and especially Mahler. I also love Miles Davis and John Coltrane. We are fortunate to live in an era when it is possible to hear and enjoy music from all eras and all cultures.
Regarding Paul's musical gifts, it is fun to speculate on what he might have accomplished had he been born into different circumstances. Possibly, it would have been much less or possibly much more.
@Allareone2 For sure! Personally, I'm just not a big fan of classical music, but the composers (and performers) are/were extremely talented and well-trained musicians. And John Coltrane and Miles Davis are the stuff! I'm just saying that I probably like Paul McCartney as a pop/rock artist rather than classical :) And I still want to know how it's even possible for him to write so much music without even being able to read/write actual musical notation.
@breakingfree90 how he writes music without being able to read/write music notation is he remembers how to play stuff or plays it to a friend while the friend does the writing- like his classical music piece he worked with a music professor at a university in England- there's a BBC documentary abouut the making of Ecce Cor Meum- is classical music piece- which explains alot
@breakingfree90 yeah- it is crazy that a musician doesnt read/write music- but I guess that adds to the awe you experience at hearing something really good
@gipperbanana haha yes, back in the 90's one kick in the arse (that he does indeed need from time to time) was collaborating with the remaining ex-Beatles on a couple of John's songs. He did seem inspired, and Flaming Pie has some of his best stuff.
@gipperbanana Isn't that the truth? McCartney has so much talent, but now and then he needs that kicks. Not only the event he's talking about, but I think he was inspired by having gotten together with his former bandmates previously to work on a couple of John's demos, the result being two new "Beatles" songs.
Those tracks are NOT truly by The Beatles - but the work seemed to spark Paul's creative inspiration, and he then recorded the fine album Flaming Pie, which includes this classic.
I have to say that Flaming Pie, and this song in particular is the
last best thing Macca has done for so ling now. I'm a huge fan but I have to say that beyound this album , for me it has all been a bit of a let down. This was a phenomenal album though.
Yeah you mean.." Sing the Changes", it is a good song
though not mad on the rest of it.Its like the song Dance Tonight..brilliant, great riff..but the album to my ears was just awful. Macca just seems a bit sporadic these days .
@wildenfree I also love "Flaming Pie," but I would say that "Chaos and Creation In the Backyard" is by far Paul's best recent work. Many of its songs are at a high Beatles level.
God Keep thee in his care...June Kristine...Philip Clyde...Jack & Sadie...Thanks to "Our Kid" Sir James Paul...Good ya Held on to the Mood and chose to give...
I agree. I think some of the songs have Beatles quality. Calico Skies, Little Willow, Young Boy, Someday and Heaven On A Sunday Paul could as might as well been come up with in the 60s.
During the make of Flaming Pie, not only was Linda going through her Cancer battle, but also loss of Maureen (Ringo's ex). This had to have been a hard time for Paul when he wrote the album and this song. Little Willow was a touching and beautiful tribute to Maureen, Ringo and his kids.
Let's not forget that much of the great talent of Macca exists because of his unearthly connections. He mentioned as such in a TV interview a few years ago. He also gives clues to this in some of his songs. Listen more carefully to certain lyrics. Example: Red Rose Speedway. Get on the Right Thing... and there's much more... Read the lyrics as well as listening to them.
This guy is just...ridiculous. People heap praise on him all the time and any time he goes to an awards show he gets so much adulation, and yet it's still not enough. And he deserves that much more for the fact that people counted him out for years and called him irrelevant.
This song is interesting because it's one of his "youngest" vocals as an older man. When he was younger his voice was sweeter and not as deep, and I think he channeled that purposely here.
their solo albums will never be good as what they did as the beatles but by god, paul writes some of the most beautiful songs on his own, so does john.....oh and george....and ringo
Listen to the last song the Beatles played together in public (roof of Apple, winter of 69, captured on the "Let It Be" album) and hear Paul say...."thanks, Mo'" to Maureen's applause at the end of The Beatles set....she must have been a cool lady...
The story he tells about how he took inspiration for this song proves,once again,that our Paul is a special person.I won't ever belive Heather Mills sayin Paul was violent to her.I just listen to this sweet melody and I start to dream.
From personal experience, a comfort in bereavement. A beautiful melody with fine lyrics. From one of his best solo albums, 1997's Flaming Pie, the album title taken from John Lennon's story of how they named their band 'The Beatles'.
Beautiful song; I seem to recall watching another video for this song, it featured a garden and little kids ... does anyone know what I'm talking about ???
i didn't know this was for Maureen- unless it was in the CD insert and I didn't realize it :/ i love this song though. i agree haricougar- he'll always been in his early 20's to me as well. he's so funny, and humble, but also knows when to be private... luv him
wonderful song. I thought it was about linda not giving in to cancer - bend little willow, no one is out to break your heart, it only seems that way. It always did and always will move me. A very sad song though

Maureen may have been a fiesty spirit. The "Little Willow" is her family, telling them to hold on tight, it's to comfort them after her death

gorgeous. Ringo was right by Maureen's side when she died. Both men are wonderful.

It's so sad that he wrote a song for Maureen when she died but a year later he lost his Linda... :( What a sweet song this is.
Rest in peace Linda and Maureen.

Why doesn't he mention the 'friend' he's talking about. Just say it's about my friend Ringo's wife Maureen.

Privacy more for the kids rather than Ringo, I think. It's respectful.

i didn't know this was for Maureen- unless it was in the CD insert and I didn't realize it :/ i love this song though. i agree haricougar- he'll always been in his early 20's to me as well. he's so funny, and humble, but also knows when to be private... luv him

I always thought it was an odd title: "Little Willow", considering Maureen Starr was such a fiesty spirit.

wonderful song. I thought it was about linda not giving in to cancer - bend little willow, no one is out to break your heart, it only seems that way. It always did and always will move me. A very sad song though

It was about the death of Maureen- Ringo's ex-wife that he still loved very much. :[
