Since the first time I heard 'Come on to me', I felt like he was singing about that night at the Bag O'Nails when she met Linda for the first time.
Maybe it isn't, maybe unconsciously , it just fits for me. And of course, it makes me like the song even more.
I'm sure Paul would have written a song about Linda after meeting her, because she definitely made an impression on him. Who knows, she could have been the inspiration for "Why Don't We Do it in the Road." lol He wrote so many beautiful songs for her from 1969 until her death, and their love shines through in each and every one of them!
Love listening to "Come on to me." It's got a really great sound, with very enticing lyrics. We don't know for sure if a particular person inspired him to write it (I'm sure they'd be very honored and flattered! ) or if he was just writing about the subject of a man in his position dealing with temptation, but this song should prove to all conspiracy theorists once and for all that Paul definitely is not dead, lol... he's always been very much alive, and will continue making his music and singing his songs for quite a while yet.
Paul saw two dogs “doing it” in the road, that’s where the inspiration for that song came from.
And in 1968, he wrote I Will and Birthday for Linda. Of course the biggest one was Maybe I’m Amazed in the fall of 1969.
I thought it was monkeys, lol, from when they were in India, but the idea is the same When I said Linda could have been the inspiration, was thinking of who he could have been asking the question to, in the title of the song, lol
Thanks for the info. I knew "Birthday" was written for Linda, but didn't know "I Will" was also. It's such a beautiful song, and the words "Love you forever and ever, love you with all my heart" definitely fit!
You’re right, I think it it was monkeys!

John wore a pink suit in 1966 during an interview when The Beatles were on tour and Paul did in 1969 (Mad Day Out)

That's true, forgot about that!
Saw this video tribute to Linda, and thought it was really beautiful, so wanted to share it here.

In honor of this blissfully tumultuous event, here's a special song in honor of Paul and Linda.... cigarettes optional
(upbeat begins at 00:32 mark ) Happy Naughtiversary!

Found this photo, and thought it was lovely of them both. Caption on photo indicates it was taken at a press conference in Beverly Hills in 1993, for the launch of her vegetarian frozen dinners.

I love this pic of them, circa 1987:
