I hear ya!

"If People, just prove to the people.....A better day is coming, for you and for me,
With a little bit more education,..... and love for our nation,
We'd make a better society."

"Step Inside LOve" proves you're wrong. :)
 

Have you listen to the released version (Cilla Black's)?
Don't be mistaken, the version on Anthology 3 is a jam and the song was released before, the percussion was an incidental thing: they were using it for I Will.
A Certain Softness fails because of its lack of sentimiento (feeling) but that's not unusual when he tries this kind of music.

I like A Certain Softness, as I said before I don't think there's a bad one in C&C but for me it's the weakest one (some has to be the weakest  :-/).

Jenny Wren is the best for me. For everything in it. And, as a reworking of Blackbird, for me, Macca could just go ahead and rework a whole bunch of Beatles melodies of his. That would be so good.

But, has it taken Macca 35 years to realise he could sound like the Beatles again? I don't know his post-Beatles output so well, but IMO, C&C sounds like the stuff he was doing on TWA. I just hope that C&C is a sign of things to come!

Please tell me about Choose Love. I've only heard of it. One of Macca's other albums? I don't know if 'cheap' is the right word. Jenny Wren is a fine song.

Does Ringo really sound 'Beatles' on that album? If so, I might buy it.

Also, I saw in Japan the album which covers Love Me Do. But, I haven't seen it in the UK. Any review of that cover version and the album by anyone?

First off, from reading the lyrics its not about drinking tea at all. It could be a lament for an England now lost, or a dig at middle england, or another stab at music hall, or a dig at himself.
I agree with Mr End, whatever it is, it doesn't work.

Quote from: 297
In a radio interview it was said that Paul said it all was caused because of an incident in a restaurant in USA. He ordered a tea and the waiter asked him if he wanted a normal tea or an English tea. This seemed very funny to him so -because he's always trying to compose another Eleanor Rigby- he composed English Tea with references in its lyrics to very English things.
I didn't like this song 'cos it sounded to me...childish, but it's one that grows up in time.

... I've uploaded this clip where Paul's explaining it by himself (3 minutes and 39 seconds, 5.03 Mb):
