Wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_Almost_Full
this one comes from his 2007 album Memory Almost Full.
album sold well over 2 million worldwide, not bad for a dude that far into his career.
the track i picked, The End Of The End, shows a man thinking what he would like to happen on the day he dies,
very sombre for any artist, but extremely dark for the usually cheerful/positive McCartney but he still manages to turn it into
a positive.
the perfect album closer, would have been an awesome 'last track on the last album' scenario, but thankfully it wasnt.
At the end of the end
It's the start of a journey to a much better place
And this wasn't bad
So a much better place would have to be special
No need to be sad.
On the day that I die, I'd like jokes to be told
And stories of old to be rolled out like carpets
That children have played on and laid on
While listening to stories of old.
At the end of the end
It's the start of a journey to a much better place
And a much better place would have to be special
No reason to cry.
On the day that I die, I'd like bells to be rung
And songs that were sung to be hung out like blankets
That lovers have played on and laid on
While listening to songs that were sung.
At the end of the end
It's the start of a journey to a much better place
And a much better place would have to be special
No reason to cry, no need to be sad
At the end of the end.
