          This is an abomination! Paul's not even singing! He's not a jazz artist! Sorry, yes, I'll admit this is a beautiful song, better than the Kanye tracks.

            I like it ! Could it be that Paul will focus more on writing stuff even if he does`t perform himself. It`s hard to imagine that it`s a pure coincidence all these songs "dropped" in a short period of weeks. Actually I quite like the idea. Don`t get me wrong : he`s a great singer and performer but there are other great singers and performers. However as a writer of pop music he is unique.

            There may be a POWER CUT and maybe I love you so, me I love you so, me I love you soooo....

              Paul's legacy as a vocalist is sealed. He is one of the best. I think it is cool if he writes songs for other people. It's not a jump. He's been doing it since the 60s.

                      I like it. It will take a few more listenings to figure out how much, but I like it.

                            A class act is Diana. I see her each time she comes to town. In a word: quality. Oh hell, in three words: quality and sexy!

                              http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/may12/articles/mccartney.htm At least one more original was recorded [in the "Kisses" sessions] but eventually not used, as LiPuma mentions: "I wouldn't be surprised if he eventually re-records 'If I Take You Home Tonight', which is another relatively new composition. It's a good song but it was still being developed and I wasn't sure if it would fit stylistically with everything else we had done.? == If Paul never does a finished version, hopefully his demo will find its way out someday...

                                    Paul wrote it for kisses on the bottom but didn't include it.

                                          Paul has been writing big ballad hits for female artists his whole career - Cilla Black, Mary Hopkins - for example.
