Today our song is: Wonderful Christmastime
Wikipedia tells us this about the song:
"Wonderful Christmastime" is a Christmas song by English musician Paul McCartney. Recorded during the sessions for his solo album McCartney II (1980), it was released in November 1979 following Wings' final album Back to the Egg earlier that year. It was McCartney's first solo single in over eight years since "Eat at Home" in 1971. "Wonderful Christmastime" has charted within the top 10 in Austria, Germany, Ireland, Latvia, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom as well as the top 20 in Canada, Slovakia, Sweden, and Switzerland. Despite being regarded as one of McCartney's weaker compositions by some music critics, it is a popular song during Christmas and has been covered throughout the years by numerous artists.
Enjoy!
A typical McCartney pop song! That said, its popularity can't be denied. The upbeat arrangement exudes cheerfulness. ☺
ReplyDeleteThis is ok but I never liked that opening with the weird piano or organ used
