"Kisses on the Bottom" by Paul McCartney


Is it just me, or is this the most disgraceful and laughable album title to come along in recent memory? Has he outdone himself this time, or what? The cover art and contents appear to be equally cringeworthy.

Notwithstanding my disdain for Paul's latest effort (which, by the way, has a marketing tie-in with Tiffany that is positively pukey), I would agree he and Dylan are difficult to touch, although I would say Jagger/Richards and Brian Wilson also punch in their weight class.

That said, there are still some rather preeminent song writers who continue to breathe and who wouldn't exactly run as distant seconds in my book.
Well, my point was hardly to indict him for not being trendy, or for getting racy with a 100-year-old lyric. In fact, I find this "very Paul-like" indeed - taking precious and cheesy to new levels that border on the surreal.

I think it's a fair bet that, if John were still around, he'd be throwing up in his mouth. But enough. I do love Paul, don't get me wrong.
