Ah Paul, you daggy motherfucker. After decades of generally passable tracks, he finally nails it with a track that encompasses his rich history while still sounding very much of the now. The horn-addled production flourishes from Mark Ronson only go so far, with Macca’s legendary melodic ear reigning supreme. Vocally, the faint showings of age are far from detrimental, and the lyricisms are more YOLO (“We can do what we want, we can live as we choose. See there’s no guarantee, we’ve got nothing to lose”) than sappy. If Magical Mystery Tour was remade today (please don’t), this could easily soundtrack the credits roll.
