The Lovely Linda

Average song rating Paul starts off his debut album with this little ditty, as if he was letting us know that Linda was his new partner under all circumstances. Not much of a song. Strange gliss on 0.05, because he doesn't seem to make a chord change there. Is that crying or laughing in the end (at 0.41). I would understand both: it's just a thing Paul writes in about 0.47 seconds. It wouldn't surprise me if this would be his first attempt at the song. Is he tapping on a suitcase for the rhythm? A forgettable thing and we got the point about the new relationship. Bobber April 6, 2012

Average song rating That laugh at the end...it sounds like Paul glanced over and noticed Linda staring at her husband acting so nutty. Of course, imaginings like this is why the album is so enjoyable. Bruce Beatlefan December 9, 2005
