Me reading everyone’s memories and smiling the whole time. The love here, for Paul, music, and for all the parents who have passed- but have kept their own memory alive in this wonderful music, by way of their kids looking back and connecting with the past. And at the same time keeping the music alive and passing the music to their kids. ❤
good effort Royal . Once a marine always a marine . I can remember listening to this as a 12 yr old . joined the marines in 88 served 22 yrs ,best days of my life ..
In the 1970s the parents drove from NJ to Iowa to see the relatives. I was probably 9 or 10 and this song was playing and on the route I saw signs for West Virginia as we drove through Southern PA. The part of the song where he sings "West Virginia" always brings me back to my youth with the warmth of Summer and time off to do leisure things...
16 all over again,,music has no bounderies when age comes in! It only gets better! More meaning,hearing the beats ,& tones better,the total meaning of it,I guess,imo PEACE!
Summer 76 the Bicentennial Yesr, did all kinds of things at school for the Bicentennial, Loved this Song then Great Song! The Best! Brings back some Great Memories
This song has probably the most perfect tempo. It has room for everything in it. From the percussion, bass line, piano, flute and horns.This is what perfection sounds like.
This song reminds me of weekends at my dad's house as a kid. My dad is now gone. This song and many memories of him are still with me. Hope everyone's dad was as good as mine or better. Take care all.
My father is the reason my passion and love for The Beatles exists. I was born in 98’, nothing has or will compare to Paul, John, George and Ringo. They built the stage, everyone else plays it. Cheers
There really is no other song writer like Paul. He seemed to have a bottomless reserve of unique, catchy melodies, rhythms, and arrangements lying within. Gifted beyond compare.
Making dinner with my daughter who’s 31 and playing this song with her three year old and baby making all the instrument sounds singing 🎵 dancing around the kitchen… what a great song❤ reminds me of my childhood
“Has it ever struck you that life is all memory, except for the one present moment that goes by you so quick you hardly catch it going?”― Tennessee Williams.
….We’re all collecting memories for the next journey into our eternal lucid dream state. Godspeed friend and enjoy your conscious stay. Times limited and we’re all born with an expiration, spend it well.
This song always reminds me of family-both immediate and related. Especially now that all of my immediate family have passed away. I’m the youngest and am SUPPOSED to be the only one left. But not yet…it all seems so unfair somehow. Yet, life is full of things that are unfair. And the privilege is that I had them at all, I guess. I’ll admit to feeling a little knife in my heart when Paul sings ‘Brother John’…as one of my brothers was John (the other was Jim). They both died recently at age 59…and I can only hope that they knew I loved them very much.
Sorry for all your losses. Yes, life is unfortunately very cruel and unfair. Hope you are in a good place. I am 53 and lost my father who was 88 recently and that was hard.
@@johnsala1619 A Beatles concert ticket for $40 bucks in 2021?!!!! dream on. nothing costs $40 nowadays. Everything is much more expensive with less value. Everyone is full of appetite but has no taste. Glad I'm from the old generation, really am.
My life testimony song. 1976, a 10 year old. YMCA camp big bear lake. A minister spoke, on Revelations 3:20 behold I stand at the door and knock. Let him in. Message.

Im just a 29 year old boy whos thankful for the music that The Beatles and their respective solo projects have created; Makes my life a little brighter and i hope it does the same for the rest of you!!
My father told me he felt this song was about letting Jesus in to his life and asked if I agree. I said music is meant to be personalized and an interpretation of whatever they were actually singing about. He gave a look like he totally understood. Not long after we found out he was sick. I’m pretty sure he knew he was. See you on the other side Pop!❤
No proper words to "explain" that I can relate. I have lost both my parents and our 3 year old started school today. Once my Mom had her 7th recurrence, she knew. She loved All of "The Beatles".

@@NaaHva Why does he walk the earth today? Why did he lead the band "Paul McCartney and Wings." Why would you make such a remark? He is alive to this day!
I love the internet! This song from my childhood just popped up in my head all of a sudden and a 'Google' and a 'RUclips' later... here I am united with this great song pretty much as I remembered it and memories from my ancient past. Happy 25th G25gle! 🥳
Very talented, the person who created this song and others. The only problem is it isn't Paul McCartney. It's William Campbell. The original Paul was killed in a ritual sacrifice on 9/11/66. Both he and Lennon made a deal with the elites who rule over us. These people and entities are demonic. They participated in a ritual in which both Lennon and McCartney were told that they would all eventually be killed. That particular pact is called "Death for success." Paul got his a mere 3 years after the ceremony. We all know what happened to Lennon and when but it wasn't done at the hand of Chapman. It was the door man working at the Dakota that night who just happened to be ex CIA. Lastly there was the attempt on George, which would have succeeded had it not been for his wife. However they finished George off with Cancer. The only reason there was never an attempt on Ringo's life is because he wasn't a member of the band when the Ceremony took place and Pete Best was spared because they hadn't become famous before he was let go. Nothing in this world is as it seems folks. Nothing. Good day.
Thank You Paul McCartney you are a treasure to this world! I turned my music on in my truck this beautiful morning, on my way to my granddaughters soccer game and this song came on straightaway! I (We) are truly blessed! Peace and love
Riding around in the summer of 1976 with windows down on my aqua-colored Datsun B210. Listening to this song. I’m on summer break from college, with my whole life ahead of me.
This is the most underrated Wings song of all time. McCartney's genius has always been creating songs that are extremely catchy yet sound so simple--though musically they are far from simple whether unique time signature and/or chord changes or adding perfect accompaniment instruments and percussion i.e. the snare pattern and flute riffs in this track. These are not typical things usually found in this type of pop song yet it fits so perfectly. Paul just makes songwriting and production seem so easy. John was always my favorite Beatle but there is no denying, imo, that the one member that was absolutely irreplaceable to the quality of music they produced was McCartney.
I'm not a musician personally, but your writing makes sense in my head. I believe you described it perfectly for fellow colleagues and musicians, and you wrote so well that I got it too. I listen to background music in that headphone zone and Mr. McCartney does it so well. Fascinated with Jeff Lynne and his background orchestral movements as well. If you have other stuff, I'd enjoy reading...
@@cdick what's the LOL for? It actually is 'underrated' or unrecognised for the genius composition that it is. It seems that some people don't understand what 'underrated' means - it means not valued or rated *highly enough*
MY FAVORITE TUNE FROM 1976 !! I WAS TEN YEARS OLD AND LIVING DURING THE SUPER SEVENTIES. A GREAT TIME TO BE A KID AND ENJOYING EVERY MINUTE OF IT!!!!!!!!. CLASS OF ROCKIN 84 HERE ROCK ON GEN XER'S !!.
The remarkable power of music to bring you back in time. Beautiful song but it transports me straight to 1976 and what a nightmare it was for my family when my sister died at 19 at the hand of some scumbag. I fought for your cause as best I could Wanda when he was brought to justice. I still think of you often and I won't forget you.
I remember hearing this on the radio in 1976 when it came out, I was only 3 years old, I can remember that far back. A neighbor of ours she must have been 19 and she would take me to Santa Monica beach. This reminds me of summer of '76.
Reminds me of being very little and my daddy playing this song in our RV on road trips. My dad passed away in June 2016 but when I listen to this, I can still feel his presence. I miss you dad! Thank you for everything! Greatest dad in the world!
Soooo glad you have those memories to keep! My dear Dad was a music head also, and it rubbed off! These old tunes still make me feel free. Lost Dad in 1989. Keep on keepin' on. We'll all be together again " in that mansion in the sky"!
Bought a bootleg 8 track of the album in Tijuana for $3.00 in 1976. It sounded great. We listened to it all the way back to Florida. Even my mom loved to sing this song. Great Memories. Ahhhh.....Sweet Youth ☮
One of the greatest song writers, agreed, but he wasn't a GOAT. Freddie Mercury and Ronnie James Dio both exceptional song writers. RIP to both of you 😢😊.
@@zzzzxxxzxzxzxzxw. You listed two amazing singers with unmatched vocal talent, not because they are amazing song writers only, however you can whistle many Paul McCartney songs and many others near you including the 75 year old man in front of you and the 12 year old girl and her mother behind you, will know it’s Penny Lane, regardless, they will all have that song stuck in their heads until they all know it’s Penny Lane, then they will be singing it for hours to themselves, until they whistle it in public, passing it over to a few others within ear shot, who carry it away in their head just like they did. Killer Queen and Another one bites the dust, are great songs but not something you would normally whistle, or that would catch on to others if you did. Same as Dio Man on the Silver Mountain with Rainbow or Neon Nights with Sabbath. You and I are both right and wrong and that’s what’s so cool about music, it doesn’t matter, the fact is, music remains the closest thing we have to an actual Time Machine, it brings us back to a past memory of a certain person, place or time we miss in life. Paul McCartney does that with his songs more often than anyone else.
there's just so much SPACE in this whole song - even when there's lots happening at the same time, there's space between instruments/tracks which mean the whole thing sounds so open
I remember this song from summer of 1976, 'which also wàs the bicentennial I was twelve years of age. Brings back alot of memories, thank you Sir Paul McCartney.
It reminds me of “Bolero” because there is the one key melodic refrain with so much room for other instruments to move in and out. A beautiful bit of musical layering from a true genius.
Everybody here has such fond memories related to this song. I wasn't born when it came out, but it made me want to build great memories to this song starting now!
I know Paul's happy with Nancy but Linda's always number 1 in his life and she made her own money it didn't come from her daddy's company and she was a natural beauty she didn't need ma6

Paul McCartney "shouted out" to several of his relatives and friends in this song: his aunt ("Auntie Gin") and brother ("Brother Michael"), the Everly Brothers ("Phil and Don"), Keith Moon ("Uncle Ernie") and his famous former bandmate ("Brother John"). His reference to "Sister Suzie" was a reference to Linda, who once recorded a song under the name "Suzie And The Red Stripes."
We are truly blessed to have these wonderful artist in our time. Sir Paul McCarntey, thank you for expressing your talents and giving us what has been gifted to you.
I was in basic training at Great Lakes Naval training camp and a few of the Company Commanders were whistling this catchy tune, then I actually heard it on the radio our Company or platoon visited the on base doctors office.
Yes, I with my sorority sisters bonded together, made a bicentennial quilt and took it for display in Indianapolis, In. We took the quilt thru an ice and snow storm. This song got me thru the interstate thru snow banks and icy patches. Thank you so much for recording this Paul.
ironically this song also reminds me of my Father. first time i heard it was either '76 or '77 at a milwaukee brewers game in milwaukee. just dad and i. no Mum, no siblings along. now as an adult i own everything paul mccartney has put out including one gem i received from one of his producers back in the early '90s. he told me only 50 copies of the double CD set were printed.
We have been on a gradual decline since about 1983-1984 by my guestamations. Gradual enough that nearly 40 years later we all are like 🤷♂️ and whatever! Hopefully it all ends soon.
playing in the yard on a sunny day. Mom was listening to wings in the kitchen. '73-74. I was 3 or 4. I'm glad the chemicals zipping around my brain show me that from time to time. Reminds me that life can be beautiful.
I was a child when this came out, but for some reason I drew that exact same meaning from the song. To me it always felt like my relatives who had passed on being welcomed into Heaven.
This song is one my earliest memories from when I was a 4 year old. We drove to the beach for vacation. This song must of played on the radio twice every hour during our 9 hour car trip.

True to that ,boy how time flies. I'm 61 now and my grand children is enjoying this song in fact the entire album.

I HEARD THIS IN THE LATE SUMMER OF 1976. SCHOOL WAS ABOUT TO START. I WAS 6 YEARS OLD.
Sho got that right
In first world countries, at least
Me too, first job, tons of friends, parties, socials, trips in rental cars, on motorbikes to the beach. Life was so carefree then.
A magickal time for sure!
I find this song hypnotic. The piano in the background creates such a mysterious and dream-like atmosphere.
a la Fool on the Hill
Exactly Paul’s intent
Yeah, kinda like 1985
This song takes me back to high school in 1976
100%!
I have this album. Got it back in the 70’s when I was a teenager. At the age of 60 I still have it. Great album.
Good for you. Pass it down as a treasure

Salute to Sir Paul and his wife Linda, who is now deceased. Rest in peace Linda.
Rest in peace Linda 🎶
Lady Linda
Linda was Paul's true love. RIP Linda
And RIP Paul. He died in 1966 in a car crash
@@NaaHva Why does he walk the earth today? Why did he lead the band "Paul McCartney and Wings." Why would you make such a remark? He is alive to this day!
I love the internet! This song from my childhood just popped up in my head all of a sudden and a 'Google' and a 'RUclips' later... here I am united with this great song pretty much as I remembered it and memories from my ancient past. Happy 25th G25gle! 🥳
I love Paul Mc Cartney a true genius of music a legend
Paul McCartney is the best song writer and the best singer today.
Yes indeed
Patrick Brown, Right. Totalmente de acuerdo, saludo desde Vichada, Colombia.
I don't like absolute statements, but this, while highly debatable, is close enough to true.
OH,MY MORE THAN ADORABLE PAULIE,YOU ARE THE BEST OF ALL IN THE WORLD !!!!!
Very talented, the person who created this song and others. The only problem is it isn't Paul McCartney. It's William Campbell. The original Paul was killed in a ritual sacrifice on 9/11/66. Both he and Lennon made a deal with the elites who rule over us. These people and entities are demonic. They participated in a ritual in which both Lennon and McCartney were told that they would all eventually be killed. That particular pact is called "Death for success." Paul got his a mere 3 years after the ceremony. We all know what happened to Lennon and when but it wasn't done at the hand of Chapman. It was the door man working at the Dakota that night who just happened to be ex CIA. Lastly there was the attempt on George, which would have succeeded had it not been for his wife. However they finished George off with Cancer. The only reason there was never an attempt on Ringo's life is because he wasn't a member of the band when the Ceremony took place and Pete Best was spared because they hadn't become famous before he was let go. Nothing in this world is as it seems folks. Nothing. Good day.
Such a brilliant track! Reminds me of being a kid
Amen! Don't you just love this man's talent! All four of them!!! I had a Paul McCartney doll when I was in grade school. And a wig!
Did it take batteries?
Robsa walker same here
robsja walker jk bñn
robsa walker me too....
Thank You Paul McCartney you are a treasure to this world! I turned my music on in my truck this beautiful morning, on my way to my granddaughters soccer game and this song came on straightaway! I (We) are truly blessed! Peace and love
The sound track of my life. I hear this one and think of age 8, driving around with my Dad, and him playing this on the radio. How I miss them days!
Who knew that these were the days that we would treasure most ❤️✊🏼
So true.
Spot on!!
Amen to that. Had a summer job and on the way home, used to hear this song every day. Fun people, good times.
I dunno... I think Paul was singing hints as to what’s to come in 2020 ... who’s knocking at the door? “Antigen”🤯
@@thinkinsidetheboxsquarecir3303 Holy cow, very good word use. Never thought of that.
I'm a trombone player so I love the trombone solo It was one of the first trombone things I could play!
played it in high school... miss it
That's awesome!
Frickin sick i gonna learn it
This song is pure genius! 👍👍
The snare has that Scottish pipes march to it. A piccolo as well I think
yup, must have been up all night coming up with the lyrics to this one smh
I wouldn't go that far and call this genius..
Uncle Ernie and yeah open the door
And now we have rap. What happened world?
Riding around in the summer of 1976 with windows down on my aqua-colored Datsun B210. Listening to this song. I’m on summer break from college, with my whole life ahead of me.
This is the most underrated Wings song of all time. McCartney's genius has always been creating songs that are extremely catchy yet sound so simple--though musically they are far from simple whether unique time signature and/or chord changes or adding perfect accompaniment instruments and percussion i.e. the snare pattern and flute riffs in this track. These are not typical things usually found in this type of pop song yet it fits so perfectly. Paul just makes songwriting and production seem so easy. John was always my favorite Beatle but there is no denying, imo, that the one member that was absolutely irreplaceable to the quality of music they produced was McCartney.
Love each and every word of your comment. Completely agree
I'm not a musician personally, but your writing makes sense in my head. I believe you described it perfectly for fellow colleagues and musicians, and you wrote so well that I got it too.
I listen to background music in that headphone zone and Mr. McCartney does it so well.
Fascinated with Jeff Lynne and his background orchestral movements as well.
If you have other stuff, I'd enjoy reading...
"underrated" LOL
@@cdick what's the LOL for? It actually is 'underrated' or unrecognised for the genius composition that it is. It seems that some people don't understand what 'underrated' means - it means not valued or rated *highly enough*
@@raindrops21_9 call Paul on his jet and let him know
MY FAVORITE TUNE FROM 1976 !! I WAS TEN YEARS OLD AND LIVING DURING THE SUPER SEVENTIES. A GREAT TIME TO BE A KID AND ENJOYING EVERY MINUTE OF IT!!!!!!!!. CLASS OF ROCKIN 84 HERE ROCK ON GEN XER'S !!.
I was going on 12 amazing time. I wish I had a better childhood but the music was good
I was 10 too!:)
NICE TO HEAR FROM OTHER SUPER SEVENTIES KIDS WHO WERE ALSO THERE AT THAT TIME. SUPER 70'S FOREVER. ROCK ON A B!!!!!.
ANOTHER SUPER SEVENTIES KID!!! ALWAYS A PLEASURE TO HEAR FROM PEOPLE WHO GREW UP DURING THIS GREAT DECADE. HOW I MISS THE PAST!!! ROCK ON J Q!!!!
I Was 13 In 1976....Was A Great Time To Be Alive...Even At That Age
The drums sound killer on this and I love how they keep changing from straight beat to accents and military march. Awesome stuff!
I thought the same thing man
Yes the drums sounds great,I remember this song in 1976, when I was 10☺️
Joe English, great drummer, say no more.
YA...what you said...
Beautiful. ❤️
Briiliant Production of this Summer of '76 hit of Paul McCartney & Wings! Bicentennial Year. I was only the age of 11. Memories. Paul was a genius
Он есть гений)))
What a timeless classic.
The remarkable power of music to bring you back in time. Beautiful song but it transports me straight to 1976 and what a nightmare it was for my family when my sister died at 19 at the hand of some scumbag. I fought for your cause as best I could Wanda when he was brought to justice. I still think of you often and I won't forget you.
Omgosh sooooo saddd for your loss. im glad you are a FIGHTER
My heart goes out to you and yours, L.A. Norm.
so sorry for your loss!!! Be comforted in knowing that justice will come to him when he stands in front of the Great Judge!!!!!
“Antigen”💉 “let ‘em in!”🤯
I think was released in 1975.
The love between Paul and Linda was a masterpiece called Wings ❤
The other lads helped.
I remember hearing this on the radio in 1976 when it came out, I was only 3 years old, I can remember that far back. A neighbor of ours she must have been 19 and she would take me to Santa Monica beach. This reminds me of summer of '76.
I was also 3! How cool that we remember this, seems impossible
I remember being so lonely listening to this. I was about 8. Lovely song. Humble regards to you all.
Thanks Greg
You too brother
😀👍! Hope all is well with you man! I don't know you but I like your comment!
“Antigen”💉 “let ‘em in!”🤯
@@Marshall-uy2dv I like you, too! :)
Reminds me of being very little and my daddy playing this song in our RV on road trips. My dad passed away in June 2016 but when I listen to this, I can still feel his presence. I miss you dad! Thank you for everything! Greatest dad in the world!
Magic music,take care.
Bless ya .Reminds me of trips to the beach at South Padre with my uncle. As a boy. I am now in my 50s
Sorry about your loss
Soooo glad you have those memories to keep! My dear Dad was a music head also, and it rubbed off! These old tunes still make me feel free. Lost Dad in 1989. Keep on keepin' on. We'll all be together again " in that mansion in the sky"!
the beauty of simplicity
Indeed.
Benj Clarke Indeed, indeed
If only it was simple to write simple songs that are also beautiful!
Bought a bootleg 8 track of the album in Tijuana for $3.00 in 1976. It sounded great. We listened to it all the way back to Florida. Even my mom loved to sing this song.
Great Memories. Ahhhh.....Sweet Youth ☮
A trombone solo?? Only Paul could come up with a brilliant idea like that..Mistro.!
The trombone solo is the best
Funny to think this song inspired me to learn to play the trombone at age 7.
Trombone solo is reminiscent of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Band..
well observed! two pieces of music have trombone solo. this one and Guajira (Santana). It sounds terrific in both songs!!
@Paul McCartney imposter...
Being born in 1967, so remember this being played on am radio, that being WLS Chicago, and 56 WHBQ Memphis, man I miss those days.
Late night WLS. Jeff Davis!
Google him. Golden voice. Still does promos/voice work etc...
Ron Carter I grew up with WLS! Ya CHICAGO 💋
Born 66
WHBQ, home of the legendary Rick Dees! The disco duck
Same here for year and WLS :)
Happy 80th birthday Sir Paul, thank you for letting us in!
Paul McCartney was the greatest song writer of the 20century.
Lennon-McCartney!
One of the greatest song writers, agreed, but he wasn't a GOAT. Freddie Mercury and Ronnie James Dio both exceptional song writers. RIP to both of you 😢😊.
@@zzzzxxxzxzxzxzxw. You listed two amazing singers with unmatched vocal talent, not because they are amazing song writers only, however you can whistle many Paul McCartney songs and many others near you including the 75 year old man in front of you and the 12 year old girl and her mother behind you, will know it’s Penny Lane, regardless, they will all have that song stuck in their heads until they all know it’s Penny Lane, then they will be singing it for hours to themselves, until they whistle it in public, passing it over to a few others within ear shot, who carry it away in their head just like they did. Killer Queen and Another one bites the dust, are great songs but not something you would normally whistle, or that would catch on to others if you did. Same as Dio Man on the Silver Mountain with Rainbow or Neon Nights with Sabbath. You and I are both right and wrong and that’s what’s so cool about music, it doesn’t matter, the fact is, music remains the closest thing we have to an actual Time Machine, it brings us back to a past memory of a certain person, place or time we miss in life. Paul McCartney does that with his songs more often than anyone else.
@@mike-jm9rs ..lets not forget the Bee-Gees superb writing talents, not just for them but as hitmakers for a myriad of singers
there's just so much SPACE in this whole song - even when there's lots happening at the same time, there's space between instruments/tracks which mean the whole thing sounds so open
Never heard space used as a term this way but I’m ignorant on music term. But space is plenty in this song. 56 years old and learning.
Nail on the head and a great description. I totally get what you mean by a lot of space.
I remember this song from summer of 1976, 'which also wàs the bicentennial I was twelve years of age. Brings back alot of memories, thank you Sir Paul McCartney.
It reminds me of “Bolero” because there is the one key melodic refrain with so much room for other instruments to move in and out. A beautiful bit of musical layering from a true genius.
I was twelve, too, back in that cool bicentennial year...@@michaelwelch3296
Whether it's with the Beatles or by himself, McCartney can still rock, even today.
....rock & roll is not a disease that you ever recover from...it's for life,...like it or not.
I have not heard this song in years and years lord the memories! ✌️❤️🎸
Now if you asking my age then you can guess????🤣
Just heard The Beatles new song “Now and Then” so naturally I had to come here to have another listen to this classic.
Why this one in particular? Simply because it's a McCartney/Wings favorite of yours, or is there a more specific reason?
@@BilisNegraMcCartney is the superior Beatle, that might be why
Everybody here has such fond memories related to this song.
I wasn't born when it came out, but it made me want to build great memories to this song starting now!
any luck?
my dad had this on vinyl, i remember hearing it, those lovely crackles and LOVING it as I grew up. always been a McCartney fan mostly. i'm 37 :)
My favorite wings cut till 19 hundred and 85 but I still drift away though not as impaired as I would be then
Same man
I have nostaglia for a time I was not even alive! My parents got me into Wings. When I hear Wings it makes me remember my father.
He is a truly a modern day mozart.......never forget this friends.
I know Paul's happy with Nancy but Linda's always number 1 in his life and she made her own money it didn't come from her daddy's company and she was a natural beauty she didn't need ma6
Linda didn't need make-up
Most definitely!!
well put ❤️🔆
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Can't put into words what this song means to me. It's like home or family. I literally have for this song Paul and Wings
OMG, LITERALLY??????????!!!!!!!!!!!! 😮
I discovered this amazing song in 2019 i am 15 and glad hearing this kind of music
sofiakk Dude same I'm almost 13 and 80s rock is the best!!! New music pop country rap & jazz are all 🤮
Belle Ulferts I’m 11 and classic rock is the best!1!1!
No nos cuenten sus vidas Cruuuuucks
im 14 months old and this is my favourite song
Dude I'm 14 years old and I love Heavy metal and thrash metal. And I came here looking for a change of pace and I love it
Sir Paul is a genius. We need to cherish this man, his genius, his soul, and his art, as long he lets us!
it been 43 years and they're still waiting outside.. LET EM IN!!
“Antigen”💉 “let ‘em in!”🤯
Pure Gold ! Love ya Paul !! Takes us back to late 70s, late summer, out by the pool, time stood still back then.....
Peace in the world 2024
His use of brass instruments is genius.. Especially a trombone solo... Only Mr McCartney

Spirits enter. Our ancestors watching us still
I remember when me and my dad would sing this together when I was like 6, I miss him so much
God bless us all, and may God continue to bless Paul McCartney for the rest of his life here on Earth. Peace out 🤟
Paul McCartney "shouted out" to several of his relatives and friends in this song: his aunt ("Auntie Gin") and brother ("Brother Michael"), the Everly Brothers ("Phil and Don"), Keith Moon ("Uncle Ernie") and his famous former bandmate ("Brother John"). His reference to "Sister Suzie" was a reference to Linda, who once recorded a song under the name "Suzie And The Red Stripes."
you forgot Brother John. LENNON!
No, I put him in there.

this music is still here.
great voice, great flutes, great horns, great drums, great strings.... This song has it all.
Makes me wanna march with my piccolo. Love it
In a dismal moment of my life, appeared this song. Changed everything and made life just a little bit better. Thanks, Sir Paul.
Best wishes for you...
@@kichigan1 And for you also. Blessings.
So glad for you! It’s a great song and so many different moments, changes in it not to mention how it pulls at your heart strings ❤
We are truly blessed to have these wonderful artist in our time. Sir Paul McCarntey, thank you for expressing your talents and giving us what has been gifted to you.
All my life I have loved this album..
Thank you dad, for raising me on EOCK N ROLL AND TROUT..
One of many great songs released during the bicentennial summer of '76. The beat is almost hypnotic.
John Golofit yes dope beat! I skate to it
I was in basic training at Great Lakes Naval training camp and a few of the Company Commanders were whistling this catchy tune, then I actually heard it on the radio our Company or platoon visited the on base doctors office.
John Golofit I was 13 In 76 and I remember a bunch of us teenagers singing along and dancing,,It was magical.And I have a sister named Susy.LoL
Yes, I with my sorority sisters bonded together, made a bicentennial quilt and took it for display in Indianapolis, In. We took the quilt thru an ice and snow storm. This song got me thru the interstate thru snow banks and icy patches. Thank you so much for recording this Paul.
John Golofit I was thinking that the drum is just soothing
Freakin' KEWL song! Ever since I first heard it on the radio back in 1976, it's been a favorite!
I just love this song, I have never been able to say if it's sad, happy, angry or peaceful, maybe all of them.
Very few songs can do that. Sad and happy
I feel the same way exactly!!
Ppcyycc C ty iPhone yuyyyyyy but
Beautiful song Mr McCartney I love it 🎶🎵🎼🎤🎧😘😘😘❤️❤️❤️
ironically this song also reminds me of my Father. first time i heard it was either '76 or '77 at a milwaukee brewers game in milwaukee. just dad and i. no Mum, no siblings along. now as an adult i own everything paul mccartney has put out including one gem i received from one of his producers back in the early '90s. he told me only 50 copies of the double CD set were printed.
Great music, Great song writer!
At the door of life be careful whom you allow in...
Back when the world made sense.
That's for sure.
underrated comment
We have been on a gradual decline since about 1983-1984 by my guestamations. Gradual enough that nearly 40 years later we all are like 🤷♂️ and whatever! Hopefully it all ends soon.
Tell me if you find a time machine Waston
i dunno, did it ever? or were we all just younger and hadn't figured it out yet? I'm decades in, still no clue
Wings always remind me of driving into Pittsburgh on a Sunday when I was a child in the 70's.
Mark Moses splitting scenes and songs parting pavement into Pittsburgh.

playing in the yard on a sunny day. Mom was listening to wings in the kitchen. '73-74. I was 3 or 4. I'm glad the chemicals zipping around my brain show me that from time to time. Reminds me that life can be beautiful.
What were you doing driving when you were a child....
Bob Lahblah this comment is beautiful
Lost a best friend when this was out...always thought that it meant the Gates of Heaven...

Mark Colicci that's such a lovely thought :)

You never really lose a friend,- as long you hold him in your heart..
I was a child when this came out, but for some reason I drew that exact same meaning from the song. To me it always felt like my relatives who had passed on being welcomed into Heaven.

This reminds me Of my childhood so much, my dad used to play this all the time.
That was before or after he was smoking crack?
was your comment written before or after it was determined that you have no life?

I remember hearing this this in 1978 I was 13 it was at a party full of unsupervised teens..good times
Paul McCartney what a legend
This song is one my earliest memories from when I was a 4 year old. We drove to the beach for vacation. This song must of played on the radio twice every hour during our 9 hour car trip.
