Q: re: wings songs, i heard let em in yesterday and didn't know who wings were, but i was like Wow this is so mccartneyish, and then i googled it. but yeah i think let em in is quite a neat song, maybe a bit repetitive but pretty funky. so what do you think of let em in?
A: i think it's great. i've probably never heard past the first couple minutes. paul has a habbit of sending a 2 minute song around in circles when it might not need to. one thing i find particularly valuable is the elongated hang at the end of the chorus. he hits a Fmaj7 chord (somg is in Bb) in the midst of that which is a super neat twist on what otherwise might be accomplished using C7. also what i think is valuable about that song is that the verse gets away with making nothing sound like something. the doorbell's ringing, get the door! that's all!!! not even any rhymes in the verse!! that's one thing that paul has done many times for me, is remind me that you can get away with Anything as long as you can convince yourself you're having fun
