6/13
From the album Electric Arguments
The Fireman = Paul McCartney
Track Nº6/13.
"When the sky is filled up
With stones and heavy rain
And trouble starts sliding
Across the way
It's hard for me to see
Which road I've got to take
I know I need to find a way
To leave it all behind

Let it shine on
Let it shine on
Let the light from your lighthouse shine on me
Let it shine on
Let it shine on
Let the light from your lighthouse shine on me

And when the light is filled up
With storms and heavy rain
And trouble comes sliding
Across my mind
It's hard for me to see
Which road I've got to take
I know I need to find a way
To leave it all behind

Let it shine on
Let it shine on
Let the light from your lighthouse shine on me
Let it shine on
Let it shine on
Let the light from your lighthouse shine on me

Let it shine on
Let it shine on
Let the light from your lighthouse shine on me
Let it shine on
Let it shine on
Let the light from your lighthouse shine on me

Let it shine on
Let it shine on
Let the light from your lighthouse shine on me
Let it shine on
Let it shine on
Let the light from your lighthouse shine on me"

"Electric Arguments is an eclectic and varied album consisting of thirteen tracks recorded in thirteen days over the period of nearly a year. Each track was written and recorded in the space of one day. The Fireman went into the studio with no plan or clear direction of how they wanted the album to sound. The project took a life of its own and the results will surprise anyone expecting to hear the previous sound of the band.

The album's opener Nothing Too Much Just Out Of Sight is classic rock and an instant attention grabber. A heavy guitar riff with loud drums and souring vocals, it's like nothing The Fireman have ever done before. The second track, the acoustic driven Two Magpies immediately takes you in a different direction, calming things right down. Then we reach the third song Sing The Changes, a euphoric upbeat song with an instantly memorable melody. Electric Arguments continues in this fashion, keeping the listener intrigued as to where The Fireman will take them next. Each album track has an entirely different personality, yet somehow this collection sits together perfectly. Other standout tracks include 'Light From Your Lighthouse', 'Sun Is Shining' and 'Dance 'Til We're High', all in keeping with the genre-hopping spirit of the first two The Fireman albums. Electric Arguments demonstrates that Paul McCartney is still interested in pure musical possibilities. This is an album set to both surprise and delight the listener. Made with no record company restraints or a set release date to work to, Electric Arguments was made with complete artistic and creative freedom".

  • Paul never ceases to amaze me!

  • if the beatles were still together, this would be one of their songs in a new album

  • @ABCLakey2012 you're an even bigger ding dong. it's flippin paul mccartney

  • @KingBlathers you're a ding dong

  • What surprises me is pauls amazing vocals! a really low voice dubbed with a high voice!! how does he do it?!?!

  • Look up Blind Willie Johnson Let your light shine on me. The Fireman did a cover song, just because its paul McCartney does not mean he can't do cover songs.

  • if Macca stole anything, he'll get in trouble for it. If there are any artists or music groups out there who think plagiarism is involved, they must file a lawsuit to have it proven and settled in court. But keep in mind ya'll that Sir Macca owns the music catalog for Buddy Holly and gosh knows who else. Ha! He oughta buy MJ's music catalog so he can get his Beatles stuff back. Just kiddin'....

  • @KingBlathers It's called a 'cover' version.

  • I got my electric eye on you. The infrared light is shining on you. You're so easily red and led. Baby, you are so lit up sitting in the Anartica. Hot.
