Paul McCartney Solo

[B.E.]

Wow! It's being reported that Egypt Station is set for a #1 debut on Billboard 200. Would be his first #1 since Tug Of War.

Thanks to revive thread, meant to post here when youtube's fast. Like now.

This is what I had to say about it in another thread...

1st song's cool - me being me, prefer fast upbeat songs to slow melancholic type. As you, like the guitar break. It kinda channelled to these ears "Got To Get You Into My Life". Meet the other Chaos & Creation fan.
Listened to "Fuh You". Mixed review - glad Paul tries sth. new, paves way feet-to-feet with current music's techniques but, since I dislike such music, I didn't like it. Who's in clip? Is it by chance Paul's grandson? & is it single new song posted in youtube since then in addition to the 2 listed by you?

I haven't watched the video for "Fuh You" yet but I read that the kid is an actor (not related to Paul). Are you asking if any other songs are on youtube yet? Try this...

I'm curious to know if this first link works for you or if it's only available in certain countries (like the US).

and this...

Wow! It's being reported that Egypt Station is set for a #1 debut on Billboard 200. Would be his first #1 since Tug Of War.

I'm surprised Flaming Pine Tree or one of the others didn't debut at #1. That's the way the biz is now for veteran acts - push the pre-orders, so that when you add up several months of those, you have a phenomenal first week. It looks impressive, but then the second week comes, and there is a serious drop off in sales, as we've seen with Brian's recent albums, and TWGMTR. I found it more interesting in the days when an album would debut lower down the charts, and then climb and climb until it reached a peak.

I absolutely love this album, even though I've never been a devoted fan--the last album I bought of Paul's was RAM. But the connections throughout the work in tone, theme, pacing I find fascinating, so I agree with Rob Sheffield's statement in his review Rolling Stone that it has a "structure like a ride on the cosmic train":

Also, two songs from the upcoming sets are now on streaming services:

Indeed I Do from Wild Life set:https://open.spotify.com/album/4hltPivByVSE5b0OJVgmoa?si=tV8CGdI6RVWoYyvJySBatQ

Live And Let Die - Group Only/Take 10 from Red Rose Speedway set:https://open.spotify.com/album/0sYlXQykRVPbFZyH9HkWAR?si=JuoKuEJQQqGuTm1NIHb7zg


Both songs sound really nice, especially the latter, which is basically a stripped-off version of the song. The former is a little, adorable demo.


I'm highly anticipating for the sets (2-CD ones) with better and more intriguing track selection for the bonus disc than the Flowers in the Dirt archival set.

[Seaside Woman]

Good news, indeed. I've been waiting a long time for those ... : - )
