When I was a kid in the 70’s my ma used this song to teach me the concepts of metaphor and subtext. On the surface level song's about a baby lamb that died and a dragonfly flying outside a house.
The subtext level is that the spirit of the deceased lamb, its animating soul, was reincarnated as the dragonfly singing out to the one who grieves “I’m flying can't you see me i'm flying” and the one who grieves sings back that they are lonely and invites the now recognized reincarnated lamb spirit dragonfly to be together at a new home. Still the singer mourns, as even though the soul that animated the lamb's form lives on, the lost lamb was a unique and precious form, its life too short and there will never be another like it. The dragonfly wanders but the singer reminds it how terribly it's missed and constantly invites it to come home to him.
The metaphor level, ma said, was that Paul couldn't save the Beatles (little lamb) so he used his heartbreak to craft the band a good death of love & dignity (Abbey Road Medley/The End). But Paul grieves, and misses his friends, and cries out for the Lennon-McCartney songwriting partnership that had animated the Beatles, and could have been reincarnated into a new form away from the band with just a word from John. Paul is singing directly to John as “Dragonfly”. They were friends from the age of 16 & had planned to write together lifelong, soulmates. Ma was a good teacher, but McCartney is an *exquisite* songwriter & vocalist.
You are lucky to have a mom like that.
Thank you! Little Lamb Dragonfly has been one of my favorite McCartney songs since Red Rose Speedway was released. Ever since I've thought it was about John. The emotion and anguish in Paul's voice is raw. It's important to note the song was recorded in 1971 during the sessions for Ram. I find it exceedingly emotional and love the melody, progressions, and chord changes that really trigger such a response.
I generally don't comment but I just wanted to let you know that this is one of the all time great McCartney songs. I appreciate you listening and letting it be known to more people!
Me too, I think it’s about John too. I love it, love it. Great video.
I'm always kind of teary-eyed whenever I hear this classic love song of Paul. Just perfect!!
One of Paul's most incredible vocal performances, in my humble opinion. ❤
One of Paul's most beautiful songs!
I was 14 when I first heard this, I am 63 now and it still melts my heart 💙
69 here
Never again will we see brilliance like this again
This is in my opinion one of his best solo work - ever!😍
Another great one from Sir Paul. This one always makes me emotional, a true work of art from Paul.
You are right my friend...McCartney at his best.
I agree...definitely underrated...this was the song I always sang as a lullaby for my two boys when they were very young, (they're both grown men now). Like you, I agree that this is on of McCartneys finest most sublime works...
I would put this song in the top five Paul solo songs, perhaps his most heart wrenching vocal
Gut wrenchingly beautiful
The whole Red Rose Speedway album is amazing. Awesome video man
Can't believe I've never heard this song. It's fantastic. Thank you for reacting to you.
Another beautiful song is his is JUNK.
One of Pauls best melodies
I got to meet Wings drummer, Joe English...it’s the closest to stone I’ve ever been. Great music and Paul’s voice is simply angelic...heaven sent!
Joe was arguably the best drummer/ vocalist ever
Agreed. I don’t think for a second McCartney would waste his time with even a “pretty good” drummer and vocalist!
Joe surpassed that standard, before he got outta bed in the morning!
That line is so powerful because it is " how can two rights make a wrong" , powerful statement.
Meaning maybe that L and M just couldn’t work together anymore.
This album is in my list of the top ten greatest albums you have never heard or have forgotten.
Mine too!
RRS was imo better than Band on the run !
Red Rose Speedway is one my favorite albums. It not an epic production, but full of so many wonderful tunes.
This song and the whole Red Rose Speedway album is underrated! Thank you for reacting. I think you could be right about the John Lennon theory! ✌️❤️
Love Paul's solo work! And this song's a hidden delight!
And his work with the band Wings . Superb .
People say they don’t like Red Rose Speedway, but I don’t know why because this is one of my all time favorite songs. If the dragonfly part really is about John, then it’s absolutely heartbreaking.
I am very familiar with Little Lamb Dragonfly...Couldn't stop listening to it back in the early '70s...Mesmerizing, hypnotic, beautiful, and not of this world...An incredible masterpiece...What a time it must have been for those who hung out with him back then...
Definitely one of his most underrated songs. But, he is such a prolific writer, he has many more fantastic songs just as good. You could make a career out of reacting to them! :-)
the "lamb"-part was motivated by an actual newborn lamb from Paul's scottish farm, it hat to be put down ("I can help you out, but can't help you into Iive"). The rest and the whole of it, I think it's safe to say that is about and directed to John Lennon.
This might not be his best song but it might be my favorite of his
Temazo!!!!
Am 66, first heard this when I was 14 and never tire of it, still moves me to tears, as do most of McCartney and The Beatles compositions.So innovative and never, ever did two songs sound alike- phenomenal talents. Am so glad the Fab Four happened - how could you ever begin to imagine a world where they never existed?
It’s even more emotional when you hear it as a message to his friend John Lennon during a time where they were estranged
Gosh, I haven't heard this one in a lifetime or two. So beautiful! Paul is such a talented song writer, as well as a wonderful singer. This number can bring a few tears to the surface ....
I tear up every time I listen. You feel the pain in his voice, and you know he meant the words he was singing.
@@vivlund Yes. It's real.
OMG 😳 How am I 70 years old and have never heard this before?? There’s just too much to ever hear it all 🥲. Thanks for bringing “new” classic music to my ears ☮️♥️🌼
McCartneys solo work is amazing! This is one of my favorites.
Because you don't have his RED ROSE SPEEDWAY album :-)
I too must admit, I’ve missed the Red Rose Speedway album, and only now am learning of the Speedway...
Billy Shears is one hell of a performer.
@@TruthGatherer2013 Get out of here with that shit man.
Love this brilliant song and of course the album.
Love Red Rose Speedway album! Spent a month at #1 on the album chart here in Canada in 1973. I played the hell out if it! Haven't heard this song in years! Great one! ♥️🎼🎵🎶🇨🇦
One of my favorite songs off of one of his mostly underrated albums, but that's only because the next one was so fantastic.
Very underrated album. Still a favorite for me. Glad you picked one from it Harri.
Brilliant left field song from Paul. Creative and brilliant melodies and chord changes. True genius IMO. Very Brian Wilson like in its construction but of course all Paul
And oh wow, what great vocals. Iconic voice
My personal favorite off that album.
Thanks Harri. You are the best Reaction channel by a mile. You would never hear this song on any other channel. Thanks again for taking a chance. Will try for I'm Carrying from Wings London Town Album. 🕊️💟🔥🙃
I love this song and I think you’re right about its meaning. Heartbreaking
Its these deeper cuts that keep me coming back to your channel.
Lovely.
So glad you reacted to this incredible song!! One of my favorite songs by Paul in the post-Beatles era!!!!!
So glad you found this absolute gem of a song, one of his post Beatles best but definitely a deep cut, never made it to radio.
Masterpiece ❤
Dragon fly the years ahead will show
How little we really know.
I very much agree! At first, I thought it was a song for his children, but I am inclined to agree with your JL connection.
The little lamb portion is about a lamb that died on his farm, but I strongly believe the Dragonfly part is about John. You and I still have a way to go…I go on, but I miss you so, in my heart I feel the pain…I’m waiting, can’t you see me, I’m waiting…you’ve been away too long….how did two rights make a wrong…if it’s about John, it’s simply heartbreaking.
I agree with you. But I think the little lamb portion is also him talking to John. At the time John was alive, and the two of them were cordial. 'I can help you out, but I can't help you in...' In other words, 'you have to meet me half way.'
Yes, you get them, great, thank you.
I didn’t spell it correctly.Its the emotion.Thank you,Paul.Melancholic,sweet, beautiful.Thank you ,Thank you.
Great reaction to an amazing McCartney song! Thank you!
Happy 80th birthday to one of the greatest musicians to ever grace this
planet. 🎂🎉🕊️🇬🇧♥️
I have always loved this song. I frequently listen to this album, just for this song. I love the Red Rose Speedway album. It has no epic songs, and is kinda homie, like his other early 70s albums, but is chock full of great melodies. Another one to look at from the same album is
"Medley: Hold Me Tight/Lazy Dynamite/Hands of Love/Power Cut".
I agree, this song is melancholy and uplifting at the same time. I also agree your your medley suggestion - Sir Paul is a master of presenting seemingly different melodies and then exquisitely weaving them together into a seamless finale.
Kermit you might enjoy these guys if you aren't aware... th-cam.com/video/7XU_VpeIUl8/w-d-xo.html
That medley is fantastic ! Good call !
Agree brother
A marvelous song.Full of sweet melody,and melancholic words.Makes me cry,whenever I hear this jewel.One of your very best soong
My favorite McCartney album.
Love this song! Love your analysis! Underrated for sure
Great reaction, just subscribed. Brilliant song.
You were right the first time,Harri." How did two rights make a wrong." What a great line.🙃👍
I have had the same opinion of this song for many many years. I don't think Paul regards it as one of his best, but the level of production and care that went into it, plus arguably one of his best vocals ever (particularly the later parts of the song) make this a masterpiece in my view.
Many think Red Rose Speedway 🌹 may be one of the best of Paul's solo albums. It got overshadowed by Band On The Run which came out the following year. From the same album I like the song Single Pidgeon.
I fucking love this song. Thanks for reacting.
I’m 74. I’ve never heard this. It’s very touching.
Harri, thanks for doing songs that others likely would not! I’m enjoying the ride. This one’s beautiful. I had this album in the past. Unfortunately, I lost my entire collection of vinyl in a fire in 1987😢. Thanks for jogging my memory. 🌺✌️
Great pick and analysis Harri!
It's a beautiful and lovely song, have a very special place in my life. Just randomly had this song playing in my head, open youtube and here you are, reacting to the song. Thank you for your content, really appreciate it. I don't mind if this song didn't get that much attention, its like a secret song for Paul's fan, just a secret lovely song, and I like to think it that way. I always enjoy this song whenever I'm alone and a lil down. Again love your reactions, take care 🌈
It was one of the songs that was never sung in concert. It was painful for McCartney to compose and even more painful to perform. It wasn't only about Lennon, but the death of a lamb and a horse and a dog. It was about his mother who died when he was young, and Brian Epstein and other lost loves in his life. It was the counterpart to John Lennon's "In My Life." It is a masterpiece, but it wasn't a song McCartney publicized because it was so very personal and painful.
Just a beautiful song, Thank you
Mind how you go
Sandra🏴🇬🇧🇨🇦
Paul comes in with the La la las
Also, watch the video of Mull of Kintyre by Paul McCartney, filmed in Scotland with bagpipes and all!. It's fantastic!
Harri did this one a couple of months ago I think.
I remember the first time I heard this about 7 years ago, I cried as I had just lost my wife to cancer. It's a regular on my playlist now.
Absolutely love this song! One of my favorites. Never even heard of it til a couple yrs ago on fb.
This song is underrated ! Paul's vocals and the music is fantastic. The lyrics who knows what they're about but with Paul there is a meaning. I think he wrote this at his farm in Scotland so this could be about an actual lamb and dragonfly. Paul can write about anything and everything.
Hello Harry, good job sir. Fyi, it has been written that on the ram album, Paul McCartney played every single instrument on the album
McCartney penned this song at a Scottish farmhouse after a local farmer gave Paul and his family a dying lamb to nurse.
Harri the medley on this album is also great . Paul did a song called Dear Friend on the Wildlife album its also for John
Have you ever listened to "Uncle Albert-- Hands Across the Water?" A real fun song!
Great song off a highly underrated album.
Glad you enjoyed
Love hearing what you have to say Harry, like your mind. Peace and Love.
So beautiful and heart breaking. The music and harmonies are so wonderfully layered. One thing ive found out about McCartney and Lennon is that they frequently communicated through song. The title of the song may start with an innocuous subject or to someone else entirely, but then somewhere in there is a msg to the other. John would slip in a "Paul" song title; Paul i think was a little more oblique. So sad they never could come back to writing music together again..
If it hadn’t been for Yoko, they would have collaborated during the Venus and Mars sessions in New Orleans. You’re right, it’s such a shame it never happened.
Went to you tube specifically to hear this song 'n I'm glad to share your reaction to it. It's always been a favorite McCartney song 'n I agree it is underrated...a sleeper. What's not to love 'bout it? Classic Paul. Have you heard Steve Miller Band-My Dark Hour? Paul provides drums, backin' vocals, bass 'n guitar. A superb performance 'n a GREAT song. Pauls drums are a standout.
he actually says 'how did two rights make a wrong' which makes sense in context if you think about it if he is singing to John Lennon
McCartney originally intended to use the song as part of his Rupert and the Frog Song animated film project.
A criminally neglected gem from one of Paul's most underrated albums. It's unusual for how Denny Laine sings the first verse, but, after that, Paul sings the lead, with Denny and Linda harmonizing.
Denny Lane is not on this. Only Paul and Linda doing vocals.
@@Rkw772 I can clearly hear Denny's vocals, and here's a source confirming that: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Lamb_Dragonfly
@@makeadifference4all you are correct. I look at a source online that said it was Paul and Linda. I got off my lazy butt and found my cd. It says it’s Paul vocals and Denny and Linda singing backing vocals. I knew one of these days I would be wrong 😭
@@Rkw772 Don't worry, it happens to all of us... except me! 🤣
Paul is definitely singing the first verse. Denny Laine may be singing backing vocals with him but Paul is definitely singing lead. You can clearly hear his voice in the first verse
Always thought this song sounded like it could have been on a Beatles album
It would have been a huge hit!
Every album has the WOW deal going on.☮️🍺🎸🎶😁 He is one of the reasons best 10 years of music to me is the 60s.
I’m reading the McCartney Legacy and it mentions this song in detail.
Denny Seiwell is on drums.
The ‘jumping board’ for this song is when one of Paul’s lambs was dying in his arms and he felt helpless.
And I can’t remember if it was at the same time BUT, there was a dragonfly at his window trying to get in.
Obviously he embellished it a bit more, but that’s it. The guys a genius.
I love the song! But I never considered John, in there. Thanks for the thought as you see it!!
I'm honestly a bigger fan of Paul's post-Beatles work, than with The Beatles. Seeing you do videos for songs like this makes me happy. I think what he's done after The Beatles is just terribly underrated across the board. Little Lamb Dragonfly isn't one of my favorites personally, but it's still unquestionably good, and just speaks to the depth of his library. If you ever wanna do another deep cut of his, I suggest "Too Much Rain". It's just so quintessentially Paul.
I think his post Beatles work is so underrated. I love this song though. One of my favorites.
I’m starting to think his post-Beatles work is just as good if not better! Maybe his phenomenal Beatles music really was just his warm-up?!?! His long solo career and his Wings years just fascinate me. I just listened to “Off The Ground” and “Chaos and Creation in the Backyard” for the first time a few weeks ago!! SO MUCH good music I’m discovering, it’s overwhelming!
@@thesilvershining Make the Flaming Pie album your next listen if you haven't heard it already. I think it's his best.
@@thesilvershining I get it there are so many. WingSpan has great songs. It has the hits disc but my favorite is The History disc. Has ones he played a lot in concerts but not huge hits. Tug of War was the first one I bought but their are so many great songs. So many people myself included missed out on his after Beatles music. I hope more and more people discover it.
@@Goodall10 YES! I listened through Flaming Pie a few days ago, Little Willow made me bawl my eyes out but Ringo singing/drumming on Beautiful Night made me happy! My favorite song might be Young Boy…. what a moving song and so gratifying to sing!!! And Calico Skies is gorgeous! And also Somedays!!!
"Dragonfly" was a baby lamb on their farm that died.
in a snow storm they looked for him but did not find him in time
Now you are teaching me about the history of our music, Sir Harri. Thank you. Another beautiful presentation from the greatest channel on TH-cam.
When the night is a killer song from this awesome album..
Daniel is a good man for recommending this song. Only Macca fans are aware of this song and it is so beautiful. Definitely an underrated song from Macca.
Never heard this before.....or don't remember doing so.....think I probably got the same feeling the same time you did.....about him speaking of John......thing is.....I feel kinda guilty....I pretty much stopped following Paul's music after Wings.....other things in life intrude....I'm betting there's many hidden gems in what he's done since....I mean.....it's Paul McCartney.....he's a musical genius.....he just puts his life into song.....prolifically....like non stop......always has....think I'll probably need another life to do so completely.....but think I'll investigate👍👍👍thanks fr sharing👍👍👍
A lot of people think Too Much Rain, from his 2005 album, Chaos and Creation is one of his best songs.
@@debjorgo thanks....will check it out 👍
I just started listening to McCartney after Covid started and I became a huge fan. I have all the Beatles music but now I find I listen to McCartney 95% of time. I feel sad I was not listening for the past 50 years but better late than never. I did see him in concert in 2013 and it was the best concert ever!
I’ve loved the Beatles since the mid-90’s and never heard any of Paul’s solo/Wings stuff apart from the main hits like “Maybe I’m Amazed”, “Live and Let Die”, “Jet” and “Silly Love Songs”, etc.
New Year’s Day 2022 started my ex-Beatle Paul journey and I’ve not been disappointed. Ram has become one of my favorite albums of all time, of course Band on the Run as well. And his classical albums like Standing Stone and Liverpool Oratorio? OH MY GOD… BEAUTIFUL!!!!! I’m so glad I’m finally experiencing all the phenomenal music I’ve been missing out on for the last 20 years!!!!!
Harri I've loved this song since it was released but its only tonight watching your reaction it became clear that it is about John-thanks Harri you nailed it.
Lennon maccartney GENEIUS
React to the Paul McCartney song "coming up" it's a clever video
I've always loved it but I know that people apart from Paul's fans usually don't know this song. Even Paul dind't give much credit at the time. This song is back from Ram sessions and he discarded it...unbelievable!!
Lovely video and song and analysis. Your vibes are very good and laid back and positive. Thank you
I LOVE this song. It's one of the sweetest tracks from my favorite Wings album. I think part of the reason this track, and the whole album for that matter gets panned is because of how sentimental it is. That is of course one of Paul's many facets. He is and has been the most versatile composer in pop/rock history. You can't dismiss Helter Skelter because of Yesterday and you can't dismiss Band on the Run or Maybe I'm Amazed because of Silly Love Songs. From classical, to blues, to reggae, to techno, to ballads, to rockers, to whimsical pieces, Paul's done it all, and most better than anyone else.
