Shuke's 1400 favorite songs by 1400 different artists. (2 Viewers)

[krista4]

Glad you asked. I'm omitting Wings stuff.

Album: McCartney. Consider Junk, or (I'm sure you know) Maybe I'm Amazed

Album: Flowers in the Dirt (my personal favorite--I saw him on tour twice in 1989): Consider You Want Her Too, We Got Married, Put It There, That Day is Done

Album: Off the Ground: Consider Hope of Deliverance,  Mistress and Maid, Cosmically Conscious

Not much more to add--I am poorly versed in his solo work after the 1990s. Enjoy the tunes above.

Great list.  I love the ones above in particular, and my favorite is also Flowers in the Dirt.

Coincidentally my MIL posted on my FB timeline today this two-year-old list of PM's best solo songs.  Haven't looked through it yet, but given it's from Rolling Stone I'm skeptical.  In fact just looking at the title saying "solo" but the subtitle referring to "post-Beatles," I'm not even sure what they were doing.

 

[krista4]

I understand completely and I know the premise of his list. That’s my language for saying “I vehemently disagree” and also on the helpful side “Maybe, just maybe, you have not heard all Paul McCartney songs and you might find something you like better elsewhere.”

I wasn't directing my response to anything you'd said, though maybe shuke's comment to which I replied had been?  In any case, hadn't noticed your saying anything "wrong."

Sweet! And it has lyrics. 

I am sure that krista loves that circus/carnival intro and insert ... right, k?

I don't know as I don't click links of bands I don't like.

Never heard Coming Up before.  Pretty good.

This can't be possible...can it?

57. The Outlaws - Green Grass and High Tides

Hope I'm not spotlighting anything here, but there were a lot of great southern rock bands back in the day.

Anyone remember Highway Song by Blackfoot?   <<< Let's file this question under rhetorical.

Big fan of #40.

Good notebooking, man.  I need to go hang out in Iron Sheik's thread and lament about my declining faculties.

 

[shuke]

56. New Radicals - You Get What You Give

"What the hell, shuke?!!??"

That's right.  Number 56.  Ever.

 

[Mister CIA]

Get hippling.

Long, Ware, Peete?

 

[Man of Constant Sorrow]

Good notebooking, man.  I need to go hang out in Iron Sheik's thread and lament about my declining faculties.

The only reason I remember ...

... is because I brought it up earlier in the thread - exactly like you - as said, "I hope this ain't a spotlight ..."

Shuke had to point it out to me. 

I learnt.

 

[shuke]

Long, Ware, Peete?

The same.

 

[krista4]

56. New Radicals - You Get What You Give

"What the hell, shuke?!!??"

That's right.  Number 56.  Ever.

Isn't this an @OrtonToOlsen favorite, too?

 

[shuke]

You guys are aware that all songs are posted in the first post for your reference, right?

I was just on page 1.  Control-F can't find Three Dog Night.

 

[Dr. Octopus]

I've always thought Amazed was a Wings song.  Should have definitely been my choice 

No, it’s on his first solo record, “McCartney”.

 

[Man of Constant Sorrow]

56. New Radicals - You Get What You Give

"What the hell, shuke?!!??"

That's right.  Number 56.  Ever.

Great great great song/

This whole damn world, could fall apart
You'll be ok, follow your heart
You're in harms way, I'm right behind
Now say you're mine

You've got the music in you
Don't let go
You've got the music in you
One dance left
This world is gonna pull through
Don't give up
You've got a reason to live
Can't forget
We only get what we give

Don't let go
I feel the music in you
Don't let go
Fly high, high

55. Heartless Bastards - Black Cloud

Of all the Cincinnati bands I've posted, this is definitely my favorite.  Posting links to a few others because they deserve to be heard: Only For You, The Arrow Killed The Beast

GUEST SELECTION ALERT: MOCS chose Hold Your Head High for one of three songs.

 

[shuke]

[shuke]

No, it’s on his first solo record, “McCartney”.

Just realized that today.

 

[Leroy Hoard]

977. The Postal Service - We Will Become Silhouettes

I always liked this song.

 

[Mister CIA]

*not updated daily

no problemo.  Did you you select "Mama Told Me not to Come."?

 

[Dr. Octopus]

Just realized that today.

It’s a great album all around.

Saw these guys a few years ago, ironically Dhani Harrison opened up for them 

Great show 

 

[Man of Constant Sorrow]

55. Heartless Bastards - Black Cloud

Now I get up to reach the sun
I won't take #### from anyone ok
Gotta be yourself
Cause no one else will catch you
When it's all said and done

Gotta please myself
Cause no one's there to catch me
When it's all said and done

There's one I loved years back, and then totally forgot.  I'm loving "Black Cloud."

Gracias

 

[Mister CIA]

Whoa!

And then some.

Heartless Bastards - Hold Your Head High - HearYa Live Session

 

[Man of Constant Sorrow]

BTW: Really cool the Bastards made your Top 55 

 

[shuke]

Whoa!

Another of my favorites.

 

[shuke]

A suggestion: Never Been to Spain

Great tune.

 

[Mister CIA]

Another of my favorites.

Let's pause the draft.  I want to spend a few days playing Heartless Bastards on a loop.

54. Curtis Mayfield - Move On Up

 

[Mister CIA]

54. Curtis Mayfield - Move On Up

Gears are grinding, hard.

Love this.

 

[Man of Constant Sorrow]

54. Curtis Mayfield - Move On Up

Take nothing less, than the second best
Do not obey, you must keep your say
You can past the test
Just move on up, to a greater day
With just a little faith
If you put your mind to it you can surely do it

 

[Rustoleum]

I was just on page 1.  Control-F can't find Three Dog Night.

True story: Tres Perro Noche was by far the most popular band in the class when quizzed by my high school Spanish teacher.

That's the name of my Goldenplane cover band.

53. Son Volt - Chaos Streams

These guys to me are the epitome of "alt country", a favorite genre of mine but one that gets used too liberally.  They're similar to Heartless Bastards, in that I love everything in their catalog almost equally.  So it was difficult for me to even narrow it down to a few songs.  

Also considered: Drown, L Train, Roll On

Anyone want to start a Marvin Gaye vs Stevie Wonder thread?  I'm too buzzed.

New to me. 

Excellent!
