This song is a beautiful ballad about the scottish peninsula of Kintyre and it's probably the biggest hit performed by Wings.

The recording sessions take place in Paul's scottish farm in August 1977.

During these sessions, Paul is helped by a local scottish group, the Campbeltown Pipes Band, who plays all those fine and famous bagpipes lines in this song.

  • Sweet song and probably one of McCartney's all time best. Bagpipes in this song are superb and help make the song the true great it is. Amazing how easy it is to forget certain songs and music over a 35+ year period. I re-discovered this truly great song after recently watching a documentary of the life of James Dean and it had a version of this song near it's end. I now well remember McCartney's '77 debut and video on MTV. Damn--that was like a "forever" ago ! Now I listen to it daily.

  • Scottish yes, but I like it too!!! <<<~~~said with Irish brogue

  • The greatest use of Bagpipes in a song...... Absolutely superb song!

  • Bloody beautiful , As an Aussie i am searching in hope to find a WEE speck of Scottish blood in my linage .

  • This song accompanied my cultural awakening when becoming a teenager! Later (!) I discovered 'The Beatles'... Although Paul McCartney was not my favourite ExBeatle, I like that song very much!

  • I'm surprised I've never heard this song before.

  • Best memories - a 7 year old girl taught to play this on her guitar by her precious Uncle, love you David, my inspiration to all that is good about life, my hero, forever xx

  • The perfect pop song, even 35 years later!

  • This song gave me spirit when I was broke and living in a tent and a motorcycle. I would get depressed and then in desperation play this on cassette walkman and just sit there and look around me. The world looked so much nicer then!
