I posted this in the "Paul Collaborating with Kanye West" thread, but I figured I'd create its own dedicated thread as well...
iTunes link here: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/only-one-feat.-paul-mccartney/id955056368I actually thought Kanye sounded better live tonight doing this song than the recorded version.
-
I thought the auto tune was still too much. It all seemed much simplier with just the piano...(Paul) Now Madonna...think that's a prerecorded track?
-
Well, I was wrong, Kanye did do "Only One." I think he's really trying to soften his image.

Yeah, seems to be the case. I suppose one way to do that is to associate yourself with McCartney. I guess.

Love for your child is sure to bring a beautiful emotion... It did

"Love for your child" I thought one of the lines was "you're my only son" is that right and did Paul write this song for James? I'm knocked out by this song (if Paul sang it), its lyrics seem quite spiritual, worshipful and inspiring...appreciative of his blessings...I want to find the lyrics and read them, to "Only One"

The line is "you're my only one" and it's about West's daughter Nori. There are several videos on YouTube with the lyrics.

I know, but in the song it's Nori; probably her nick name.

The song is from the perspective of West's deceased mother looking down and being proud of her son and also saying "Tell Nori [North] about me," because his mother died before North was born. He has said this in interviews.

That's it, Kanye said he got the song from his mother ( in a dream?), because he said Kanye means Only One, and that's what she called him...

Yeah, he performed it without Paul. And yes he has said that's not even him singing...it's his mother.

Despite Kanye's antics after Beck's win, "Only One" has been steadily climbing the iTunes chart since last night. Up to #21 right now.
-
Did Paul write the tune to it? Lovely melody, why did Kanye singing have to use that awful sounding auto-tune that makes you sound like you're bleating like a goat? Kanye is more of an artist than I thought if he wrote those poetic lyrics.
-
Wait, did I read somewhere Paul and this goose recorded 9 songs together?
-
Waiting for Kanye to proclaim that HE was the one who got Paul McCartney to #1 position in chart. The song was good on the Grammys, and I am sorry his other died at the hands of that plastic surgeon, but not a Kanye fan so will not purchase this or any of his other music.
