Please don't sing
PAUL! I have a delightful voice! Mum says I sound like an angel. How very dare you.
@@Fludded 😉
I’m sure if he tried to use any of the original song it would be taken down, in seconds, so a little singing, great, it’s his choice. If you record a cover song too well algorithms only says it the actual song and remove, it even if you object, which I guess is a great compliment. I should have known better. At least I got it on Vimto
😂😂😂
@@andymacc Exactly. I also sing on my William McBride grave visit in France... i love singing!
I live in faraway Florida, but I was in Scotland for a month about a dozen uears ago. This song of Paul's really makes the tears flow! 😢
Thank you sooo much. I love seeing how places have changed from what they looked like years ago…whether in a music video or somewhere in history! Again…THANKS!!
There are places I remember....
Thanks for posting links brings back memories,being on the beach that day gave me visions of Paul walking down to the beach to greet the pipers 👌
they went to his house first in his garden then they all walked down to the beach
Loved that wee video ... it brought back happy memories of queuing in the cold at the Apollo in Glasgow for tickets for Wings in the late 70's ... and having a great time at the gig! Everyone just left their seats in the stalls and headed for the front! It also brought back memories of great holidays in Carradale, a wee fishing village about 3 miles north of Saddel. Many years passed and then I remember seeing Paul and his band at Hampden in Glasgow .... just pure dead brilliant, so it was!
Well done! great video and information a lovely part of our country we call home, proud to be a Scotsman
Love this content. Wonderful singing 💚
Especially for the Scottish accent! Loved it absolutely!
I envy you for going to Paul's places. Nice to see, as I most likely never going anywhere near those area's !!!
SO NICE!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I love how you split the "Then / Now" screen, and showed McCartney sitting in the fence playing guitar......then with Denny Lane.....the Bagpipers....I'd never seen any of that.....then photos with his children.....WOW!!! You were right there! So bloody cool (as you might say) but the little house looked like it had a fresh coat of paint on it.....the red trim looked fresh too.....those guys in the beginning - maybe did it. I gotta hand it to ya, guy, you've taken me to parts tonight I've never been. SO GLAD I found you and your love for MCCA!!! Me too, friend, me too. Thank you SO SO MUCH! ~♡~♡~♡~
In the early 80's I used to be a young Airman, stationed at near by RAF Machrihanish. Watching that video brought back memories
That was great. Beautiful location.
On a good binge of your videos, brilliant commentary and charming singing! Thanks for keeping these places feeling alive!
Cheers Bloops! Stick around for more!?
@@Fludded Absolutely of course!
I did the same trek to High Park farm, around 1992... yes, it's a long hike! Wonderful people of Campbeltown gave me directions!
WOOWWW, AMAZING!!!! SUCH A BEAUTIFUL PLACE!!!! THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Love this video.....keep them coming.......
So cool, I loved seeing the now & then where it was filmed. I loved their song & those bagpipers really made it come alive! ❤
Oh boy what a trip. Thanks a million.
Thank you for the great videos me and my family are enjoying them all. Watching from California
This song is is absolutely incredible. Thanks for the video about the location itself and the information about the area. I hope to be able to visit Scotland one day, its where my mothers half of the family is from, and this is definitly one of the places that I would go to see
🍃🏡 sheep 🐑🌾 ♥️ thank you for the visit ~ love it 🍃
Thank you so much for this. Mull of Kintyre is one of my fav songs!
Great post- thanks for doing this 🙂
Loved your video, brilliant! Thank you!
I loved your video. Thank You so much for sharing. If he see this may tug at his heart strings.❤️ I’d give anything to come visit.
Thank you! Very beautiful! Wow
Thanks for the video a beautiful part of the world
This was a delight to hear about and see. I used the song to play at my dad’s memorial, and have since found out that along with being mostly Irish, he was Scottish as well❤️😉
Clanswomen are a fine people!
Wow!......Cool video! - :)
Beautiful! Thank you!
Just excellent. Many thanks.
Great video thanks for sharing 👍🤟
Awesome mate thanks for this
I'm from Brazil and I want to visit this place too. Good video. Thanks.
Thanks so much for this video.
Wow. I had never seen the video before. I have a friend who lives in Saddell, I've been on that beach and walked around there, when I was visiting him. That's so cool.
Nice job! thanks for the post!
Thanks I enjoyed this so much!
thanks for sharing! I visited a few of these spots on a trip. Used the a proper camera instead of my phone for nicer pictures. Well that SD card was stolen and I ended up losing all those pictures. Including pictures of me with the baton (I think that's what it's called) used by the leading piper.
Excellent video 👍
That was very interesting! Amazing how little some rural places change. Good to get out of the ever changing city and get some permanence.
Thank You... So inviting!!!!
Thank you for this video im a big Wings Macca fan from Portugal
Thanks for sharing!!!
No problem 😊
I remember this song so good, even tho i whas just a child. It went to number one in Holland also...
Great video ! Thanks 👍
i am Scotish I lived in Campbeltown on the Mull of Kintire Paul and Linda bought a farm there My home town pipe band played the music I still love the music I played it at my sons funeral Everybody was crying
Well done!
Awesome video mate, thanks a lot!!
Stayed on Saddel estate right on beach. Wonderful time with dog and great friends. Fantaticmpry. Pair of sans o beach lots of bbqs.
Kintyre is in the Highlands - it is part of Argyll and Bute, which is north and/or west of the HIghland boundary fault line - so althought it is geographically south of some parts of central Scotland which are clearly not in the Highlands, such as Glasgow or Edinburgh, it is definitely in the Highlands.
Thank you! I love it!
My vet ( now retired) was in the pipe band - and in the Wings video.
There is a close up of him in the video - handsome chap - and he looked after Paul McC's dugs ! ( dogs) . He appears 2 min 59 sec to 3 min 01 sec in , in the Wings Video. He worked in Campbeltown for a year or two before moving to Mauchline for the rest of his career.
Thank u for this. Interesting.
Great video cheers 👍
Thanks 👍
Lovely Video
I'd never experience this if not for you. Thank you.
Well done
Thankyou for your video. My husband Keith cleans the wee cottage.
Fantastic place!
I visited in 2016 and its so beautiful. Well worth a visit if your in the area. I also visited the Mull light house, you’ll love the one track road 😂
EXCELLENT!
Was here last week, just same nothing changed. My name is mulligan so found the mulligans tyres bit amusing lol
Paul and Linda were so ‘together’ - 💕- lovely pix of them. Great comparison, past and present, good idea 👍 🐁 Bring back Roland Rat 😎
the Linda impression was spot on, I couldn't help laughing
Thank you!
Great opening pan!
Thanks!
@@Fludded I have a question, did Paul have a groundsman when he lives at High Park Farm?
I'm amazed the log is still there. That's one tough piece of wood.
I have to assume saltwater is helping it from decaying quickly... It is hard to believe it is still there...
Other videos just as interesting!
Came to this on wondering which acoustic Paul used a Martin D…? and, as you, love that heavy valve compression on a strummed acoustic as I wonder what compressor LA2A/RS124? and mic U67,87,47??? and which mic position was used as it’s one of my fave sounds for a strummed acoustic. Hear it was recorded outside which is also intriguing 🙏 PS like the ADT effect on your take, is it a plug in. Enjoyed the video, struggling to see the video about the studio used?
I worked at George Martins Air Studiis for a while and the compressors we used, which I was told the Beatles also used, was amongst others the Fairchild Compresser. My recording was done while I was editing. I just sang direct into Audacity and compressed it to pieces using free plugins.
I like your vids. Youre just a nice, down to earth guy, would love to have a plate of bangers 'n mash with ya laddy! Hi from me, Vancouver, BC, Canada
Hello mate, love the video 🙂
Can you remember how long the walk took from the car park to the little house? I’m doing a 4 day drive around Kintyre later this month and am finding my schedule on day 2 very packed 😀
Wanting to visit Saddell Bay and Mull of Kintyre lighthouse in the one day but timing is tight because the latest whiskey distillery tour and tasting we could get in Campbelltown is 2pm 😅
Cheers
Kieron - Im so sorry I didnbt get back to you on this sooner. Car park to the little house is about 30 minutes
@@Fludded it’s fine mate. Had plenty of time in the end, and your video came in real handy when walking there. It truly was a magnificent place.
The drive to the Mull of Kintyre lighthouse ended up being a bust because it was closed. Couldn’t even get close to it. They could have put a sign up saying that before we drove along that long windy road 😂
'The not Mull of Kintyre', it's okay he had an artistic license, great song anyway. Enjoyed your video, off to the next one now.
Greetings from Washington State, USA
Greetings!
@@Fludded Great to meet you on here! When this whole pandemic thing comes to an end, I plan on visiting Scotland. Had plans to go in March of 2020 (was supposed to help rebuild Boleskine House) and then the shit hit the fan, with covid. I'm still heartbroken over this. Hope to be over soon. I would give anything to hike with ya.
Lovely spot & vid! Do you get plagued there by the midges?
Not here but to see that! You should watch my Skyfall FLR video on this channel or the Scotland camping one over on my “Craig Duncan” channel…
More Beatles locations please!!!!!!
Love that the London Town album wasn't actually recorded in London.
The little lean to on that house in the Mull of Kintyre video, with the 2nd green door ,is no longer there. The door that is there is now painted red. Is that called progress ?
Shakin Stevens took one of the green doors for his video
Yes, I find it odd that the house LOST a portion on the left side, very strange...
Back in 1977 age 14 when I first heard this song:-Mull Of Kintyre and I thought there was a place called Mull Of Kintyre in Scotland. I ask my music teacher and I said Mr Crofts is there a place called Mull Of Kintyre? And he said No Errol! It's a name of a Lighthouse! And I said Wow! There's a place in Scotland called Kintyre and a place called Mull and I said Okay! I first went to Scotland 2004 and I remember singing the song while walking along the streets and One Old Lady walked in front of me and said why do like singing this song? And I said to her I like it and then she said Mull Of Kintyre is a Lighthouse and I said to her I know that my dear hehehehe.💙🤍💙And I said to her It was a Big Hit for Paul McCartney & Wings but she still don't care🤣😆😂. So I went bout my business and continue singing the song....
Its not actually the lighthouse itself... its the land the lighthouse is on. "A Mull" is a point of high land (headland) that juts out into the sea... so The Lizard in Cornwall is also a mull... of the Flamborough Head in Yorkshire... also a Mull. The word is typically only used in Scotland though. Kintyre has a Mull upon which is a lighthouse. This is handy as it's the perfect spot, usually, for them!
@@Fludded Thank you so much!!
I’d have to bring my guitar if I was to go there. Wouldn’t be able to resist
"Turn left at the castle" lol something you never hear here in the USA
I heard that the band was offered a percentage but chose new uniforms etc. I'm sure someone out there would know though.
Paul commissioned my freind to sculpture Linda and the stone was taken from mull , sweet
I live in Roswell new Mexico but id love to travel to England and Scotland and Ireland and Spain
My late father worked on the video as grip
Hey buddy !!!
...
Apparently the track from 1978 was "HIS" version of a "punk" record just slowed down !!!
...
They were a brilliant band in the 70's while constantly "dogged" by criticism !!!
...
But only the best band in the world at the time !!!
MANY THANKS
🤩🤩😘😘😘😘😘
Would you be interested in filming the return of The Mull of Kintyre Campbeltown violin (Made by Archibald Smith in 1904) playing Mull of Kintyre in that location? And then where? Nottingham Forest football stadium? I restored the violin in Nottingham this year. And Mull of Kintyre is the official song of Forest fans.
It would have been nice if the commentator had did his homework before making the video. Kintyre is indeed in the Highlands of Scotland, even though the Peninsula runs due south towards Northern Ireland. Maybe too much in hurry to debunk the information, he got it completely wrong himself.
McCartney forever
Who is the guy with roland rat ? looks like viv stanshall
I also assumed that was Paul's house
Indeed, but it's still a great song.
The wee cottage isn't derelict. It is a picnic cottage for the guests on the es.tate
The castle sleeps 8. We're the housekeepers of the castle.
Is this cottage haunted ??? Like Boleskine house from Zeppelin and Crowley??
It was just a video to a good song no one’s bothered
love the place cant be bothered with mcarteney and the beatles, rather have thin lizzy jammin
Sad!!
Denny Laine does write a good tune......
Called the doc... their be coming to have a look at you soonish!

He's a real Nowhere man
Sitting in his nowhere land
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Doesn't have a point of view
Knows not where he's going to
Isn't he a bit like you and me?
Nowhere man please listen
You don't know what you're missing
Nowhere man, the world is at your command
He's as blind as he can be
Just sees what he wants to see
Nowhere man, can you see me at all
Nowhere man don't worry
Take your time, don't hurry
Leave it all 'til somebody else
Lends you a hand
Ah, la, la, la, la
Doesn't have a point of view

Must be a bad place to stay in winter, cold and dark
Where is it warm and light in the winter?
Pedantic doesn't do you justice .
Thanks for engaging! ££
