Details: A song I wrote from the perspective of Paul McCartney, reflecting on the amazing creative energy that existed between himself and John Lennon in those heady, early formative years of songwriting, at Forthlin Road. (More details in the YouTube description).

Forthlin Road

You and me, at Forthlin Road
It’s musical tennis in the motherlode
You serve me, and I return
And between us we manage in this match of words

To forge a song, yeah we forge a song,
We make it up as we go along,
We forge a song, yeah we forge a song,
Like nobody else can do-oo-oo

She Loves You (yeah! yeah! yeah!)
And you say I Saw Her Standing There,
Love Me Do, and many more
And old Jim’s piano, When I’m 64

We are Quarry Men
And we’re digging deep
We mine the heart seam
Eight days a week
We are drilling down
To the core
Finish one song and we
Start some more,
We were drawn together
At the village fete
Where the steeple rise
Where the steeple rise
Now the songs keep coming
And they just won’t wait
There is Beatle-mania!
Beatle-mania!!!

Motherless, you and I,
Like birds of a feather in the empty sku,
Flying here and landing there,
But still Liverpudlian everywhere,

We forge our songs, yeah we forge our songs,
We make ’em up as we go along,
We forge our songs, yeah we forge our songs,
Like nobody else can do-oo-oo….

There’s a nice barebones feel in this lyric, song, and video that prods genuine reflection of a time long gone–just like songs on which Paul was part, and such remembrance and place were sometimes key. Good job!

This is really good. Nostalgic video adds to a great song. Malster ?

Really like this. The slide guitar works really well. Guitar and voice are all it needs. Good song.

Great song Shaun. I like the the perspective. Also nice understated guitar solo, just how George would have done it. Good one??

Dripping in nostalgia and written from an interesting perspective. I like the way you hit those McCartney high notes here and there.
