Paul was getting a lot of shit at this point in his career for writing too many love songs. So he dropped this masterpiece. To me Paul is the most important songwriter of the 20th century.

[@mhicks0203]

You won’t get an argument from me on that.

[@Rowlph8888]

Depends on how you define important. The most commercially successful, yes. In terms of influence, I would say John, along with Dylan, were the most influential Lyricists, but Paul has a shout in terms of masterfful musicianship, but in this respect difficullt to isolate anyone within the Beatles, for important musicianship, and you would have to include George Martin in that.If you would pick anyone except Martin, Paul was definitely the best musician in natural talent, therefore probably the most influential "instrumental musician" of all time, With Martin perhaps being the most influential non-instrumental musician. I would have this breakdown, because it is irrefutable that the Beatles moved music forwards, as a single entity, more than any other

My favorite thing about Paul and Linda is that when they formed Wings, and started to tour, they didn't want to be separated from their kids and just took them with them on the road. It wasn't common to do that in the early 70's.

Between his work as a member of the Beatles and the prolific songwriting team of Lennon/McCartney, his work as a solo artist and with his band Wings, Sir Paul McCartney is going to leave behind a body of work that can be rivaled by no one. What a blessing he and his music have been for the world to behold.

@Lauren Lewis Well, that’s a daft comment.

[@SG-js2qn]

It's funny how this song opens with the sound of a machine cranking out love songs, and then launches into a melodic bass line, before bringing in Paul's voice. It's like an amused, "challenge accepted" type response to Lennon's criticism of Paul. I hope John got a laugh out of it. :)

[@edwardcapobianco2975]

Right on Sg, even though Paul and John were not working together any longer, John criticizing Paul for writing stupid love songs totally inspired Paul to respond. So in a way, they did work together on this. Their chemistry and influence upon each other was unmatched and magical! Even 1000s of miles away.

[@brachiator1]

@@edwardcapobianco2975 Paul could overdo the whimsy and twee in his songs. But they also often were built with beautiful melodies and deceptively observant lyrics. And his songs seemed to reflect a deep love for his wife and family.

[@edwardcapobianco2975]

@@brachiator1 very true but he also wrote and sang some great rockers, I'm down, Helter skelter, birthday, oh darling, I got a feeling. Many favor John but the reality is Paul was the dominant force in the Beatles afterr rubber soul. From revolver on there is no comparison Paul's songs shit on John's and I love John's music but no way is he better than Paul from that point on

[@brachiator1]

@@edwardcapobianco2975 John and Paul wrote songs together, but it is also true that they both had tons of lyrics and melodies in their heads before they knew one another, especially Paul. I understand your point that Paul became more dominant after Rubber Soul, but even when they did not write songs together anymore, they might still contribute a line or edit, and they had a sense of what Beatles song should be. This kept them honest no matter who the main songwriter was. Paul knew that he had John and Paul looking over his shoulder. The songs that Paul wrote for Peter and Gordon were good songs, but not good enough for the Beatles. However, songs like Why Don't We Do It In The Road, Martha My Dear and Rocky Raccoon are almost simple minded, even if they are fun. This is the case with a lot of Paul's songs which have a taste of the British music hall tradition. And some songs are just stupid, like Maxwell's Silver Hammer. Some of Paul's best songs are profoundly sad and melodically beautiful: Eleanor Rigby, Yesterday and Blackbird. They are also essentially solo works or have minimal participation of the other Beatles. But they are still Beatles songs. As a solo artist Paul confirms that he is a brilliant musician, but he doesn't have anyone to caution him from over indulging in twee and simplistic lyrics.

[@edwardcapobianco2975]

@@brachiator1 I absolutely agree with everything you said. They complimented each other better than any combination I think in the music business but I do love Keith and mick and Page and plant too. I have to say in my favorite album is revolver and my favorite tracks on revolver are here there and everywhere for no one and Eleanor Rigby. Those are the most dominant tracks on the album, hands down along with George's tax man. I really liked she said she said and Tomorrow never knows especially Ringo's drumming but those songs don't compare to what Paul wrote. Paul's dancehall music influence comes from his old man, but I like that stuff a lot I love when I'm 64,I love honey pie and my favorite ,your mother should know. Also their musical contributions to each other's songs was magic. For example John's piano intro on obladi oblada, Paul's bass playing on come together and Paul's bass playing on rain made those songs so much better

[@1967PONTIACGTO]

when this song first came out I didn't really like it... but now that several decades have passed, I have come to think of it as the ultimate song of defiance against people who want to drag us into a world of never ending political and social negativity...."here I go again!!!".. he's basically telling the naysayers to f-off.

Paul's biggest hit with Wings. It was #1 for 5 weeks in 1976 and ended up as the overall #2 hit of the year. The songwriting was credited to both Paul and wife Linda. That dominant, memorable bass line throughout was arguably the best of his post-Beatles career.

[@lindakinninger5500]

After the Beatles split, Paul & John kinda a feud, where they wrote songs about each other… John had commented that since the split all McCartney wrote was drivel & silly love songs. So Paul wrote this song in response

The song is a response to Lennon following the Beatles' breakup. Lennon said he was working for peace, and not just writing silly love songs. McCartney responds with this song, in the lyrics and even tweaking his nose by making the chorus just "I love you" four times running. Lennon took it in stride; he soon after put out a love song, "Woman," which became his biggest post-Beatles hit.

[@mikecaetano]

"Silly Love Songs" was a gigantic hit back when, quickly topping the charts to become the song of 1976. I heard it on the radio so often back then that merely reading the name can start the song playing in my head even now more than 45 years later -- that bass line, the melody, those harmonies, the horn riffs, the disco string arrangements. Awesome! The first vinyl album I ever bought was Wing's Greatest Hits, in part because of this song, as well as the others like "Band on the Run", "Live and Let Die", etc.

[@itsthatguy478]

This was the FIRST song request I ever made to the local radio station way back when. . . I think I was 8. I requested it for a girl in my class at school. She heard it on the radio and the next day at school she slugged me in the arm and followed me around for a month. She was also my first kiss. Thank You for the memories !!

[@thomastimlin1724]

That big tire on the freeway you see is near Detroit MI, about a hour or so from my house.....they took a photo of the group standing right in front of it, in 1976 while on the big USA tour called Wings Over America. a live album of some of those performances was done with same title. And a movie. Paul McCartney and Wings was a big group of the 1970's that started in about 1971-72 and evolved over 2 years or so into a big selling act and hit singles record. Denny Laine, formerly of the original Moody Blues stayed with them to the end when others kept coming and going. He deserves more credit than he gets for his loyalty and musicianship and singing. Paul's Wife also was an asset as background singer for the wings sound, and steady simple keyboard playing. She was a non musician before she met and a married Paul. I never understood the negative bull crap from critics about her knowing full well she had no background in playing and singing and stepped up the the plate, learned from Paul, and did what she could and it didn't hurt anybody but the meathead critics.

This song reminds me of being 8 years old and listening to an old hand-held AM radio, running around my suburban neighborhood with the other kids, sometime in the summer in the mid-70's.

A lot of younger people have no idea how huge Wings was. I was young & I remember that they were the biggest band in the world. The Wings Over America tour was so huge it changed the way concert tickets were printed & sold because of the massive forging due to high demand. Every show sold out 2-3 times. This and Band on the Run are my fav Wings songs. I loved an interview with Sir Paul about 10 years ago where he said Wings was the band he always wanted & he was grateful to The Beatles for giving him the freedom to make the music he wanted to make.

[@loisrogers2511]

"My Love " is a beautiful song.

[@MyargonautsJason]

Paul and Wings toured all over the United States in 1976, the bicentennial year, and the tour was HUGE! Just think - it was a chance to see a BEATLE in a live show, the first chance for many since the Beatles stopped touring 10 years before in 1966 and the first chance for all the new fans that came along in the 70s and inherited a love for the Beatles and embraced Wings as well. This was the big hit song that summer, and the live album they made from this tour - Wings over America - is a classic!

Paul wrote this specifically for the bass and said it had been a while since he had a strong bass dominant song. The lady on stage was his wife he survived, Linda McCartney (nee Eastman) whom were never apart much. It was said the time apart added up to merely a week's time in their 25 plus years of marriage until she succumbed to cancer. That's worthy of a Silly Love Song :)

In the mid 70s Paul McCartney made wings hugely successful. In the 70s there was zeppelin, the stones, and wings was very close behind them. Paul McCartney is an absolute musical genius. He can actually play pretty much every instrument and on some wings albums play drums guitar piano bass etc. McCartney was far more critical to the Beatles success than John Lennon because he was also heavily involved in the arrangements and the studio genius of their music. They made wings hugely successful and then of course had a huge solo career.

Paul & the Beatles always ended their song, & did not just fade out. I love that about them. “That girl” was his wife Linda Eastman, from the Eastman-Kodak family.

I think that both your interpretations are exactly right. Some people love being in love and want to tell the whole world about it. And no matter how disappointed they might be by past bad relationships, people don't lose hope that they might find love again. Paul McCartney wrote a silly love song. He was quite good at that. But the whimsy is also beautifully expressed.

The e little girls and the older girl sitting in the red seats in the video are Paul and Linda's children, Mary (dark hair in the pony tail, their first child together), Stella (blonde little girl, the second child, and she is now a famous dress designer) and the older girl is Heather from Linda's first marriage to Melvin See. With permission from Heather's dad (Mr.See) Paul legally adopted her. Paul and Linda had a 3rd child together, a son named James, but he wasn't born yet at the time of this video from 1976

Paul playing bass/lead on this is the icing on the cake

[@MundoDragon]

This has my favorite bass line in any song ever. So catchy and rhythmic.

[@timelesstravelclub6240]

I was too young to see the Beatles but I recently saw Sir Paul in concert who didn’t disappoint by playing mostly oldies. Great concert!

[@eric7922]

the bass line is mad love in this one. One of the very best bassists in the world.

[@saxon840]

I was in elementary school when this came out. My older sister and I were obsessed with it. We had an old jug, or bottle for the whistle sound, a chain, and some other object that I can’t recall - and we recreated that rhythmic sound at the beginning, lol.

[@thomastimlin1724]

Oh God, as a former music teacher I would have liked to have seen and heard that lol! That's really creative for kids.

[@coreyculbertson5036]

How awesome!

[@rogerbillings5081]

Such a great song for people who get it! Wonderful!

[@christianmattison6096]

I always thought that this represents some of Sir Paul's best work. It stands on it's own. And that he plays that insane bass line effortlessly while singing lead is a a real testament to his incredible talent!

[@louiscarpenter1934]

This is a song I was happy to hear come over the radio back in the day. It was always refreshing from the repeats of that time. 🤘😎🤘

[@miguelbotelho2613]

One of the best Bass licks ever!!

[@Almcingrid3663]

This brings back sweet memories. At church camp, I met a boy and one night the whole boys side snuck over and serenaded me with this song!

[@hume1963]

I remember hearing this song several times a day on the radio in 1976. I was 13 years old. This is video from the Wings Over America tour. Great stuff.

[@jimmyc3755]

This album spent 6 months in my cars tape deck. Wings had 10 number 1 songs over their time together. This was one of them. Let Em in, Wino Junko, and Beware my Love are also songs to check out from this album. Great Reaction!

[@chuckgibson6377]

Brilliant song so well constructed into three parts that layer on top of each other in such a beautiful way.

[@leemcclements8889]

Not a Beatles fan, but I do love Paul McCartney and Wings. They have some great songs! Juniors Farm is a good one that people seem to forget about. It's a good rocker!

[@lawrencekelli]

Paul McCartney writes the best silly love songs I think .Pure joy!

[@revwillyg6450]

This song almost broke the radio when I was little. You could not escape it. Love Sir Paul✌️

[@lantzkeefer6]

One of my favorite Bass lines from Paul.

[@chuckvelten5337]

Such a great bass line played by McCartney in this song as well !

[@dianelindquist9796]

I love watching you guys! Brad’s all trying to figure out the lyrics, and Lex just totally gets in the groove to the music, so much fun!

[@Beatles4Sale.]

Number one Billboard song from 1976. Love ❤️ it! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

[@leehanson1416]

"Silly Love Songs" probably bought Sir Paul a castle. Lex has it right, the song builds upon itself, up to the point that the chorus is 3 lines working together in almost a kid's chorus song. It's also very bass guitar forward, which wasn't much done before McCartney did it- it's like a bass solo with everybody else joining in.

Beatle Paul. Multi-instrumentalist. Musical genius. Thanks, cats.
