Title: Girls' School
Post by: on August 05, 2007, 07:33:48 PM
 I love this 2 million seller , so why does  " Girls' School " seem to get forgotten surely it's one of Paul's best rockers ? what do other people think of this great song ?
I think Paul should play it on the next tour  :)

Great song.  Probably one of the strongest B-sides ever.

It's a great rocker, & interesting how he used it as the flip-side to Mull Of Kintyre.
Kind of shows 2 sides to Wings i thought.
It's a great song but i don't think they were some of his best lyrics though & neither
were Mull of Kintyre for that matter.

I think the lyric's are quite interesting Andy , there some of Paul's most  risque , i was reading on the net that the song was inspired by a pornographic advert from a newspaper and the song was originally called  " Love School "

He obviously doesn't care for it much. It has not appeared on any either of the three 'best of' albums.

Wings would done a great live version, maybe in their last 79 tour.
I don't think a lot of people would know it now if he did it on stage. :-/

People don't know every song any performer sings when they see them live?  I never understood that logic, I don't want to know each and every song a performer is going to do.

That's a problem with McCartney's Beatle heavy setlist now, it's too predictable, he needs to change it up big time!

As for Girls school, it's absolutely fantastic, the hardest rocking song by Wings without a doubt and McCartney should be performing it!  In fact he has so many wings rockers that are just screaming to be performed live!  It's really a shame that he doesn't play these great songs!
