Paul McCartney - Secret Friend

Temporary Secretary B-SIDE
1980.
"Feel like you've never felt before.

Here we are, where are we?
Cast adrift on some uncharted sea.
I know we'll find our way,
I know we'll reach the end,
If you will say you'll be my secret friend.

Night draws in, once again,
As she turns her velvet collar up,
A perfect day will end.
If you will say you'll be my secret friend.

Feel like you've never felt before, once more.

Night draws in, once again,
As she turns her velvet collar up,
A perfect day will end.
If you will say you'll be my secret friend.

Feel like you've never felt before,
Come on, baby,
Just make sure you're gonna feel that way again.
Don't you know you do it?
Yeah-hey-hey-hey-yeah, yeah,
Yeah, yeah, yeah-hey-hey-yi-yeah.
Oh-oh-oh.

Here we are, where are we?
Cast adrift on some uncharted sea.
I know we'll find our way,
If you will say you'll be my secret friend.

Do it any way.

Feel like you've never felt before, once more.

I need ya, I need ya, I need ya, yeh, I need ya,
I need ya, yeh, I need ya, yeh, I need ya,
Yeh, I need ya, I need ya, yeh.

Night draws in, one more time,
As she turns her velvet collar up,
A perfect day will end.
If you will say you'll be my secret friend, yeh, yeh.

Feel like you've never felt before, once more, once more.

Here we are, where are we?
Cast adrift on some uncharted sea.
I know we'll find our way,
If you will say you'll be my secret friend.

I need ya, I need ya, I need ya, yeh, I need ya,
Need ya, I need ya, I need ya, I need ya,
Yeh, I need ya".

Isn't this the album where he played all the instruments himself? I remember first hearing this and thinking it was so magical- so freaked out. I still love it.

[piggies1]

Yes, he played all the instruments in the album. Thanks for watching!

[1FineYoungCannibal]

This sounds like the ambient music of the nineties by Orbital or Aphex Twin or something, and for 1980 that's impressive.

@zephyrquartz That pic is from the Waterfalls video--I love the way he looks in it! He was about 38, but still looked in his 20's!

[messthetics]

@icanwaitanotherday Yeah it's from 1980's McCartney II. He played all the instruments on 1970's McCartney as well.

this tune is amazing!

[ilovefreedom80]

To John.

[zephyrquartz]

My gosh he was handsome (10.47). I never had a chance!

@ellovater

It's inside the gate fold cover of the McCartney 2 LP. And it's also in the McCartney 2 CD booklet. There are also 3 other photos in there in which Paul is imitating the other 3 Beatles!
