This reminds me of the funniest thing, in drama class last week my friend started singing Waterfalls by TLC (which is a complete rip-off of this song) in a deep baritone. Man it was funny.

Randomocity... over. *blink*


You're so vain, you probably think this post is about you.

Waterfalls is just a BLAND pop ballad from Paul which he thought was a masterpiece in his mind.


I want you, I want you so bad babe.  I want you, I want you so bad.  It's driving me mad, it's driving me mad.

One of the best songs of Paul. I love McCartney II (tkitna knows it), but I prefer One Of These Days (the best of the album). If you like Paul you like One Of These Days.
I like On The Way, Nobody Knows and Summer's Day Song too.

Count me in for the McCartney II love. Full of really quirky songs with great melodies and weird sounds. The instrumentals are okay but a little too long. One thing's for sure though: Paul is having fun. "One Of These Days" is also my favorite.

Other highlights: Temporary Secretary (I LOVE this song!!), Coming Up, Waterfalls, On The Way, Nobody Knows, Summer Day's Song, Goodnight Tonight.

McCartney 2 is like a weirder version of RAM at times. Really fun and bizzare. Great album cover too!

Glad you like it.
Couldn't agree more. (Your list is almost the whole album   )

Not a fan of this song. Bring on Temporary Secretary.


They were the most brilliant, powerful, lovable, popular group on the planet...

Can we deduce that nobody likes the Coming Up version of the album?  



I can listen to it.

I WASN'T knocking Waterfalls as crap but it is a bland pop ballad.

I just heard Waterfalls.... The music vid is quite nice (Paul looks like a shy little kiddo) but I think the lyrics are better than the music and his voice...

See, I think the lyrics are awful but the music is good. Different strokes I suppose.

Same here. Personally I think Waterfalls has some of Paul's worst lyrics.. Polar bears and motor cars, hmm.
