Haven't a clue. Great song though.


I just want you to reassure him - talk to him, make him see the error of his ways. Then I'll hit him.

I always thought it was a cheap, sweet wine "suitable" for middle- and high schoolers, like "Annie Green Springs" or "Boone's Farm" for those of a certain age and locale. Just a depraved upbringing, I suppose.


I love John,
I love Paul,
And George and Ringo,
I love them all!

Those screams are probably the highest notes he ever reached. It's amazing.

His voice was definitely at its strongest and best when he sang this song. He could sing the highest notes and the lowest notes and the deepest notes. I think his voice started to weaken around 1973 and 1974. He never sang with that deep voice again after 1973.

I wonder if it wasn't written with Linda and the kids in the room. It sounds like it grew out of a demented family sing along. Great cheeky throwaway.

Anyway, Paul's voice is still really good. I mean, the man is over 65 years old.
The other day I was watching "Good Vibrations" sung by Brian Wilson on a 2003 or 2004 concert, and the poor man was distroyed.

And yes, "Monkberry Moon Delight" is one of Paul's greatest vocal performances. I've always tried to reach the highest notes when he, during the last seconds of the songs say, Monkerry Moon Deli-i-i, i-i-i, i-i-i... and on and on... I still don't understand how he can reach those notes. Good for you Macca!

Love it! Love it!  


"Wings IV introduced Jimmy McCulloch, a spunky lead guitarist with grit, able to spur Paul on unlike any previous soloist. His debut track, the magnificent single `Junior's Farm', stands as one of Wings' finest emotional and technical releases."

"Few people on this planet know as much about Jimmy's musical history than you."

when I first heard it I didn't think it was him because his voice did not sound the same. I give the man props for still going strong today and his voice is different but still great.

I don't mean this in an offensive way but how did you think his voice sounded? During 1968-1972 his voice was deep and powerful like that. Listen to some of his songs on The White Album, Let it Be, McCartney and Ram, his voice has that very deep sound.
