  Seven Songs for the Week #156 - 1st Apr 26

  Jason Carty

  After about three years of speculation and a week of strong suspicions, we finally got new music from a new Paul McCartney album. How many more times shall we enjoy such an occurrence? The song was premiered on BBC Radio Merseyside at 2:50 in the afternoon. It is such a contemplative song, it was hard to measure it against the brief concentrated hype online and on the BBC. I was sitting having lunch with the other half who patiently understood that I had to have headphones in. An amusing set up. The last significant release like this was The Beatles Now & Then, which had its world premiere while I was at my father's funeral. I think about that alignment of events a lot. As for Days We Left Behind, after a few days and a few more listens, it's another perfectly crafted song from Paul.
