I can't pin it down to one song, I like...

What's That You're Doing - McCartney has never been funkier!
Here Today
Sombody Who Cares - Sorry Blue Meanie but I'd be dishonest if I didn't say that McCartney should be performing this fantastic song live.
Ebony And Ivory
Take It Away - yet another one that McCartney should be performing live.

Happy to see that you two are now getting along (and I'm not being sarcastic).  (thumbsup) ;)

I didn't know that me and Blue Meanie weren't getting along, I thought it was just a difference of opinion?

To me if a person isn't consistent in how they feel, or what they think, then they're not honest!

The Pound Is Sinking

Just love his voice (especially when he screams,,,,'Oh,,it didnt happen') and the different stages of the song.


(On a sidenote, I love the guitar solo on 'Somebody Who Cares')

I agree 100%...this is definitely one of my favourite McCartney albums...unfortunately it's marred by the likes of 'Ebony & Ivory'.  'Somebody Who Cares' is a great tune and the solo is fantastic...but the  bass work of Stanley Clarke really sets the mood.


'Get It' with Carl Perkins is a real classic moment...I love how the Perkins laugh segues into Be What You See.

Tug of War. Just for the moment when Paul sings "..in years to come they may discover.." That little section. 33 seconds of sheer beauty. When he sings "..but it won't be soon enough.." it just hits me right here. *pounds chest*

I feel the same way.  That part in "TOW" is just so, so beautiful and haunting.  So I voted for this song and it's one of my favorite Macca tunes, too.

This is a really lovely album overall.  "Here Today" is my second favorite song because it's such a heartfelt tribute to Paul's friendship with John.

Relistening to it right now. Mine too, one of the most favorite albums. Love it!

Fav song The Pound Is Sinking. It is so different and interesting.

Though first three songs of the album seems boring for me because they are simple.
