Some great songs listed here. I am a huge McCartney fan but have always loved the “inner” album songs better than the hits. Here’s a few different from Press

Angry
It’s not true
Tough on a tightrope

Like the whole Press album actually... Sounds like the Rick is all over it

My favorites? In release order.

Every Night
Junk
Heart of the Country
Long Haired Lady (Ok, all of Ram)
I am Your Singer
Momma's Little Girl
Warm and Beautiful
London Town
I'm Carrying
Daytime Nighttime Suffering
Figure Of Eight
Calico Skies
Little Willow
Your Loving Flame

Long list, I know, but I like these a lot and I'm happy they aren't everywhere.

And I know it's not a McCartney song, but I LOVE Time To Hide.

Amazing how many songs this guy has recorded. Also, how many of them qualify as "obscure"...

I like "However Absurd" from Press to Play although I HATE the album. Seems to be some authentic emotion in that one. Macca a bit shy about growing old and that bit....

Warm and Beautiful – our wedding song nearly 25 years ago... Good choice I’d say – we were 21 and are still going strong!

For ukulele lovers like me "Ram On" & "Honey Pie."
