Though written during what McCartney has described as “a lazy holiday,” the “Flaming Pie” trackis coiled with emotion. Against a soulful backdrop spiked with electric guitar, McCartney promises a friend that “When you’re fed up, shedding too many tears … I will come to you to ease the pain.”
This duet with Stevie Wonder– a first for McCartney with another major artist – is much maligned because of its simplified ode to racial harmony. But it’s hard to fault McCartney’s intentions – or the song’s easily digestible tunefulness.
Possessing more of a rock edge, the single from “Off the Ground” was a minor hit in Germany, but is best known for the origin of its title: McCartney and wife Linda were discussing cameras and their phrases “I like a Leica” and “I like a Nikon” merged into a story about a girl who liked a biker … like an icon.
The topic of how to pick someone up at a party isn’t novel, but McCartney turns the notion into an engaging challenge, buoyed by a stomping, uncomplicated chorus.
Kraftwerk-esqueelectronic elements color the song with an almost incomprehensible sound for a McCartney effort. But – and this is why it squeaked onto the list – it can be considered a bold zigzag that, in retrospect, is at least interesting. Review:The Beatles' final, AI-assisted song is wistful, quintessential John Lennon
McCartney aimed to duplicate the do-it-yourself format of his first album with “McCartney III,” his most recent release. While his voice might have more warble to it, his ability to turn the bucolic into something infinitely listenable is still formidable.
A sparse backdrop – Fender Rhodes electric piano and eventual acoustic guitar – paired with layered vocals, this underrated ballad from “McCartney II” is yet another indication of the man’s inimitable ability to make even the small things sound grand.
So unfussy that a child could easily sing along, the other side of Wings’ “Hi Hi Hi” single – in the key of C, of course – follows the same lite-reggae format as its companion, with a xylophone!
Based on a game McCartney played as a child, the chant-along chorus is infectious on its own, but the rest of the song is indicative of a genius of melody whose touch remained deft 60 years into a career.
With harmonizing reminiscent of Crosby, Stills & Nash, the B-side to “Goodnight Tonight” is a feast of poppy synths and raspy high-hats.
