Yeah never been a fan of it despite its noble intentions.  I would have preferred he keep it as a stand-alone single.

The one thing that is really fascinating about it is that I have always felt that Mccartney and Wonder's voices really worked well together.

I’ve always liked “Ebony and Ivory”... and still do. 

I also had a teacher tell me one time many, many years ago that opinions are like a**holes, everybody has one.

So, why don’t we all play nice and respect one another’s opinions without being a**holes...

I agree.  And it's worth a listen-to again...

I feel the same about Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson's voices on Say Say Say...

Even when the 2015 Remix switched their lead vocals, the song still sounded great...

I wonder if the director of the Ebony and Ivory video did Paul's Coming Up as well. Interesting to note that Paul had such a malleable voice, soul, rock, pop and anything else he wanted at the top of his game. John and George had that quality as well. I also think that years of singing in a multiple vocal band did help as well.

Yep Paul’s vocal skills at his peak were amazing.

Wow!  I love these posts.  Also, Say Say Say is a great song - so full of joy and positive energy.  I wish we had more of this in today's world, singing, dancing and all-around merriment!

In regards to the remix of Say Say Say. I preferred the old vocal arrangement but the new musical arrangement.
