Paul McCartney - Silly Love Songs 1984

Music Video from 1984´ Movie "Give My Regards To Broad Street"
(C) MPL Communications 1984

[@baberoot1998]

I will never understand, why so many, (even Macca fans), crap on this track. 'Silly Loves Songs'...is absolutely gorgeous. A beautiful melody, with a kick ass bass line. Brings back so many memories of my childhood. It can make the coldest heart melt...and smile. I love it. And not ashamed to admit it.

[@rbeasley2049]

Me too! This song is my early childhood! It makes me smile! 😄

[@moedeesbasketball]

The bassline is INCREDIBLE!!! Macca is a machine on this song!

It always reminds me of the first time I heard this song. I was having a dream about my kindergarten class or something like that and this song was playing. My mom was listening to it and it was coming through my dream. I was about 5 or 6

[@barbarac.k.3745]

Jeff Porcaro and dreamy Steve Lukather!!! So freaking cool. Jeff looks so bad ass on the drumbs in this, and the great Steve Lukather, the dreamest bad ass ever!

[@lukahmad5683]

I love how Paul make a 80s version of this song. Would it be great if he's like to make a newer version every 10 years lol

[@marleyboy7732]

As a kid, I used to think my mom just liked uncool music. She loved "Blondie, The eagles" the list goes on & on from the 60s,70s & early 80's. I lost her quite a few months ago (cancer). And now this is the only kind of music I listen to everywhere. Just makes me feel like she still around. She did have good taste after all. Now my kids think Im old.

[@Bongz1990]

The dancer in the video was the man who taught MJ the backslide/moonwalk. He also went on to co-choreograph Bad and Smooth Criminal.

[@barudun]

His name was Jeffrey Daniel....leader of RnB Group, Shalamar, He lives and works in three countries today Nigeria, UK, Japan

[@msoileau83]

Yep. A lot of MJ connections here.

[@juanromero5367]

Correct. His legendary dance moves at top of the pops when presenting a night to remember , set him to collaborate with MJ and then paul

[@modusceo]

Including parts of the backing band for the album Thriller with Lukather, Porcaro and Louis Johnson.

[@darrylsims3242]

In my opinion ! This is Paul McCartney's BEST BAND ! The Creme De Le Creme of musicians! Musicianship at it's ' FINEST ' Louis 'Thunder Thumbs 'Johnson on Bass, from the group TOTO Steve Lukather on Guitar and Jeff Porcaro on Drums , and last but not least Jerry Hey and The SeaWind Horns!!! These are the FUNKIEST CATS to ever do it ! This groove is TIGHT straight up ' In The Pocket '

[@msoileau83]

Ah! The Seawind Horns are on this. So Paul really did use a lot of Thriller (album) musicians here. And Michael's pal Jeffrey Daniel doing the moonwalk/backslide/whatever. I wonder if that's why Michael did Moonwalker, bought Paul's old rental property (Neverland), and bought the Beatles catalog. 🤣

[@vanxl9]

Oh ok so the Beatles were just nonexistent. Really poopoo?

[@user-sk1re6vw9q]

Весь секрет Пола Маккартни (и - более того - группы БИТЛЗ) в том, что их песни НЕ нуждались и НЕ требовали инструменталистов такого высокого (виртуозного) уровня. Главный минус этого варианта песни в том - что использованы музыканты "чрезмерного" уровня. Это убивает очарование оригинальной версии группы УИНГС.

[@mileswalcott7241]

It is the best harmonies of Paul McCartney post Beatles era it was the top song of 1976

[@andrewpotok2661]

No. Afternoon delight won best song that year. Ty

[@johnnguyen1972]

Far and away the best version! And yeah, Louis Johnson (bass) was the star of this performance!

[@msoileau83]

Louis is a legend. Toto's Steve Lukather (guitar) and Jeff Porcaro (drums) give great performances too and the guitar/bass interplay between Lukather and Louis is reminiscent of Toto's Hold the Line. Paul met them while working with Michael Jackson.

He said it was the least important instrument I the band and he could hide behind it. I played him this video. He thought better of his decision. lol

Playing this bass line and singing was too much for Paul when he hit his 40’s. Amazing he did it at all in the 70’s making it look easy.

[@jaycareaga9929]

Paul doesn’t play funk bass. It has nothing to do with Paul being able to play and sing. Paul wanted an update so Lous Johnson played his style of bass on the recording.

This great video includes perhaps the only footage of the great Steve Lukather playing his estranged Signature Series Ibanez Roadstar RS1010SL model guitar. Whether that guitar is actually used on the recording of the song itself is something only Lukather himself would know. But it's great to see him playing it on the video even though his connection with it ended up being soured.
