"No More Lonely Nights"? Seriously?

I know there's some major Macca hatred on this forum so it'd be interesting to see who participates here.

In any event, here's my list:

1. Maybe I'm Amazed
2. Every Night
3. Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey
4. Monkberry Moon Delight
5. Another Day
6. Band On The Run
7. Bluebird
8. No Words
9. Calico Skies
10. Listen To What The Man Said

I don't know quite enough to make a real list, but I will throw my 2 cents in and say that I think Venus And Mars is a truly great record-- a real start-to-finisher.

Honorable Mention:
The first 45 I ever owned (age 9 or 10) was With a Little Luck. Not a great song, but a sentimental fave.

Okay, I know most of the songs above so I suppose I'm qualified to make my own list...

Venus And Mars/Rock Show
Junk
Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey
Jet
Another Day
Helen Wheels
Nineteen Hundred And Eighty Five
Live And Let Die
Magneto And Titanium Man
Junior's Farm

I also really liked Mull of Kintyre, which of course isn't 'his' song and which I understand was played way past death in the UK. Not so over here. And anyway, I am a sucker for a bagpipe; it's in my Highlander blood...

Yeah, seriously! I HATE the production (same with So Bad), but it's a beautiful melody (and incredibly hard to sing).

Maybe I'm Amazed
Back Seat Of My Car
Love In Song
Beware My Love
Tug Of War
Too Many People
A Fine Line
Beautiful Night
Once Upon A Long Ago
Back On My Feet

Again, just off the top of my head. I could keep going. My attitude on McCartney-bashing is "they can't do that to our pledges...only WE can do that to our pledges!"
