WINGS "wings at the speed of sound" vinyl/cd 1976
their fifth, Macca's seventh post Beatle outing though...
despite containing the two multi million selling singles "let 'em in" and "silly love songs" this has always been a huge disappointment for me...
album contains eleven tracks, five of which were written and sung by the other band members and for the most part these and Paul's tunes are well below par...
album has always been one of those albums albums i dread coming out of the pile to play and from this listen i cant say i will be looking forward to the next listen...
I DO NOT LIKE THIS ALBUM
not my favourite track as that belongs to "let 'em in" but this one just held my attention this time round...
written and sung by lead guitarist Jimmy McCulloch
Doctor Tom is getting on,
All he does is sign his name.
I get things my brainbox sings,
but I'll go down again.
Play with fire, getting higher,
Higher than a nine foot flame.
My soul is pent and so's the rent,
but I'll go down again.
Wino Junko can't say no,
Wino Junko, eyes aglow.
Pill freak, spring a leak, you can't say no
till you go down again
This and treat you crazy cat,
Flying sideways once again.
I'm in a spin it makes me grin,
but I'll go down again.
Wino Junko can't say no,
Wino Junko, eyes aglow.
Pill freak, spring a leak, you can't say no
till you go down again.
Till you go down again.
Till you go down again.
Till you go down.
Take what I need until I bleed,
People will say I've gone insane.
Ain't scared to die, it's such a high,
till I go down again.
Wino Junko can't say no,
Wino Junko, eyes aglow.
Pill freak, spring a leak, you can't say no,
Till you go down again.
Wino Junko....
