PAUL McCARTNEY "McCartney III" cd, 2020.
had this one on in the car over the last four or five days to really give it a good listen...
recorded in 'rockdown' as Paul called it...
given the "McCartney" title because he did everything (well, had another muso on one track)...
eleven tracks ranging from folk to pop thru rock, grunge, funk and 'drum & bass' type tunes...
typical McCartney for the most part (as in highly catchy, infectious and full of simple riffs)...
so, eleven tracks, three i do not like and havent since it was released...
five i love ("winter bird/when winter comes", "long tailed winter bird", "seize the day", "the kiss of venus" and "deep down"),
the rest are good.
I LIKE THIS ALBUM
okay, so i get it, his voice isnt what it was but this is still a gorgeous love song:
The kiss of Venus has got me on the go
She's scored a bullseye in the early morning glow
Early morning glow
Packed with illusions, our world is turned around
This golden circle has a most harmonic sound
Harmonic sound
And in the sunshine where we stand alone
We came together with our secrets blown
Our secrets blown
Now moving slowly, we circle through the square
Two passing planets in the sweet, sweet summer air
Sweet summer air
And in the sunshine where we stand alone
We came together with our secrets blown
Our secrets blown
Reflected mountains in the lake
Is this too much to take?
Asleep or wide awake?
And if the world begins to shake
Would something have to break?
We have to stay awake
Packed with illusions, our world is turned around
This golden circle has a most harmonic sound
Harmonic sound
