Probably my favourite McCartney solo song. Whimsical and silly, yet sentimental and extremely melodic. Seemingly unfocused, yet driven and wildly adventurous. And the way he paints landscapes with music is just to die for. After the thunderstorm effect, he paints the most glorious sunrise with simple yet somehow intricate means of arrangement. And you nailed it all. Thank you! :)
@@sampopkinAre you Paul sure that Paul used his Casino? He had the Gibson Firebird at the time. He could’ve either used the Casino, Firebird, or Telecaster
You are the best person to express not only the Beatles' sound but also McCartney's solo's sound! The Greco ES-335 sounds just as special as the Gibson.
YES! YES! YES! I love this song dude. Also, have you done Free as a Bird or Real love [blank] yet? They are challenging to get everything right but they are beautiful songs. Anyways, great job as always man I love your videos ❤👍
YES SAM! I absolutely love the RAM album, this song is one of my favorites, you played it wonderfully! The song is so heartwarming yet thrilling in some spots, the way McCartney composed these song(s) is absolutely mesmerizing.
That was a lot of fun Sam! Great work! All of the tasty electric guitar parts for this song were the work of the late Hugh McCracken who died in 2013 age 70....Paul has often said that Hugh made this track the hit that it was....Interesting note: Hugh's repeating lick, at the 00:27 mark, subsequently turns up in other songs (in case it sounds familiar to you!): "Her Town Too" by James Taylor-J.D. Souther (guitarist Waddy Wachtel steals it as the main lick to the song!), and "You're No Good"(Outro) (Rondstadt version)....there may be others~I think Hugh's is the 1st appearance of it in this McCartney song though...
Finally a cover of a song from Ram! Definitely my favourite solo album from any of the beatles, you've done a wonderful job mate! I'm hoping for a cover of monkberry, the most underrated song on the album.
Your videos motivated me to get a Doctor Robert pedal, and now you're playing the same Greco SA-550 that I play! Tones on this video might make me trade the "bassman tone stack" on my deluxe reverb for the real thing...sounds phenomenal.
Vest twins ❤ I was literally listening to this morning on my way to school and thinking I wish someone had a good cover of the guitar part!!! Thank youuuu
This is truly awesome. The only youtuber in the world doing this hard work. I feel like listening the original song. I wish Paul play this soon coz he never played the song and it was a Hit N1 of Billboard Hot 100!! Thanks and greetings from Argentina!!
All the guitar work on this amazing song has perplexed me since it came out. AMAZING video as usual. It blows my mind that, in addition to all the leads, you figured out every chord (accurately)! Thank you for this!
Beautiful cover, wow! Everything nailed down again to a tee! As someone else pointed - I felt like I was listening to isolated tracks. Nice how he's using muted strings as a percussive instrument in the 2nd section.
Macca just knows stuff that no one else knows you know? Like small things like where he holds the F chord in the ‘hands across the water’ section but the electric ascends F, Ab, Bb, C with the D shape. Anyone else writing that part would have the acoustic doing the same thing but with barre chords.

IVE GOT A FEVER AND THE ONLY CURE IS MORE RAM 🐏
get a better pc then /j
@@brixenlang3207 lol
Ram On
@@brixenlang3207when I'm sixty four (GB)
Ram is such an under-appreciated album!
Probably my favourite McCartney solo song. Whimsical and silly, yet sentimental and extremely melodic. Seemingly unfocused, yet driven and wildly adventurous. And the way he paints landscapes with music is just to die for. After the thunderstorm effect, he paints the most glorious sunrise with simple yet somehow intricate means of arrangement.

I couldn’t agree more! Thanks
Ahhh, Lord Ithkos (?) with a superb comment!
@@sampopkinAre you Paul sure that Paul used his Casino? He had the Gibson Firebird at the time. He could’ve either used the Casino, Firebird, or Telecaster
@@beatlesfan2884 yes, master tapes list paul using his Casino
Beautiful synopsis
In addition to the excellent playing, the sweater vest is very McCartney
It's his vest from Magical Mystery Tour if I'm not mistaken
More Ram please
yessss
The tone on that 335 is IDENTICAL! Felt like I was listening to the isolated guitar tracks! Well done yet again 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Greco is the best Japanese manufacturer that is cheap but gives the best sound
When you play it, it's a shining tone🧌
agreed, but ryohei kanayama has a similar one but it's tokai and looks 100% like a gibson es-335
the mid seventies Ibanez's are the same, play great and chimey, bright pickups (Super 70s), much more so than the darker Gibson PAFs.
YESSS! Even got the guitar scrapes! I always hear them in the song but never see someone actually playing it in covers!!! Amazing cover Sam!!!
You are the best person to express not only the Beatles' sound but also McCartney's solo's sound! The Greco ES-335 sounds just as special as the Gibson.
Thanks!
I came for a George tune (What is life), found Paul and Linda. Sub.
Thanks in advance for the tunes I'll learn.
excellent channel NY Sam!
Great playing on this, my favorite piece by Paul in his solo years.
These are done with so much love and respect. It really shows. Love your hard work.
Great Job Thanks. Probably this song is in my Paul`s top five songs.
OMG, MY FAVOURITE SONG!
no way just listened to this album for the first time about a week ago and have listened to it on repeat since and now you post this!
Nice tone on the Greco. And nice vest! It's all about the little touches.
That Greco is bad ass!
You absolutely nailed it! It's still interesting to see Paul's strumming technique, your thumb must hurt haha. Also, I love the Paul waistcoat!
I don’t know how Paul had such endurance with his thumb haha. But I adjusted my technique so it doesn’t hurt as much, using the side of the fingertip
@@sampopkin yea i tried and it hurts as hell
This is the solo song that captures the Beatles sound best. Lovely work :)
That’s good mate
Thanks Paul McCartney
@@sampopkin no worries.
OMG this is my favourite from Solo McCartney! This was so amazingly well played!
SAM RAM LET'S GOOOOO I love ram sm this is gonna be a good era of Popkin
Alright Sam this tears it. Your next cover is going to be the ENTIRE Ram album. Seriously though amazing job! Hoping for more Ram stuff in the future!
I will absolutely cover the whole album at some point!
Oh man this is OUTSTANDING work
Great job Sam !
Paul was definitely a genius, and thanks to your talent, we can see the details and evoque a whole era. Thanks Sam! Can you make smile away?
Hard to express what it means to see and hear this. Fantastic is as close as words come, but they fail me. Thank you.
YES! YES! YES! I love this song dude. Also, have you done Free as a Bird or Real love [blank] yet? They are challenging to get everything right but they are beautiful songs. Anyways, great job as always man I love your videos ❤👍
I haven’t yet! Will do soon
Oh man I played this song so many times growing up. Spectacular - the sound on this is so good (as usual)!
One of my favorite paul songs!
@@sampopkinThe sound on the Greco/335 is amazing
this is so accurate!!! amazingly played! props to you
YES SAM! I absolutely love the RAM album, this song is one of my favorites, you played it wonderfully! The song is so heartwarming yet thrilling in some spots, the way McCartney composed these song(s) is absolutely mesmerizing.
GREAT CHORDS WELL PLAYED 👍
This song shifts gears several times. One of my favorites!

Потрясающе!!!!! Не понимаю, кто больший гений: Сэр Пол или Сэм, исполнитель кавера, сумевший разгадать тайну этого музыкального шедевра!!!!!!!!
Hey, I've got that exact same vest. Great playing. For some reason I feel like butterpie now...
🤘idk what butter pie is but I want it too lol
A butter pie ? ❤😂
Excellent. That Greco sounds and looks great
Finally a cover of a song from Ram! Definitely my favourite solo album from any of the beatles, you've done a wonderful job mate! I'm hoping for a cover of monkberry, the most underrated song on the album.
Your cover has me Smiling Away 😊

🤘nice collection you’ve got
I really love your covers and your McCa's outfit is stunning
That es335 tone is so good
Well done! You got that hollow body right on. The tone is perfect.
Classic Paul. Beautiful guitar fills too. Great cover.
Excellent... and so precise as always 😊
All the best

Vest twins ❤
I was literally listening to this morning on my way to school and thinking I wish someone had a good cover of the guitar part!!! Thank youuuu
Thanks Evy! It’s gotta be my favorite vest 🐏
Love that song..youre showing us a lot of sublities and nuances of this song..all the lost denny lane stuff..
Great as always! Love the guitars on this song. McCartney jazz!
You think it would’ve been a Beatles song if they didn’t break up? Or maybe Winston would’ve shot down another granny song 😉
Wonderful! My first every record purchase, a 45. Very nicely done Sam!
Oh my god, oh my god
Great job Sam. This has always been one of my favorite Wings songs are there are many.
the perfect song for me to cure any sad mood
Keep the covers coming!!! Great choice on Ram!!!
This is truly awesome. The only youtuber in the world doing this hard work. I feel like listening the original song.
I wish Paul play this soon coz he never played the song and it was a Hit N1 of Billboard Hot 100!! Thanks and greetings from Argentina!!
so good
These are so accurate & truly incredible
This is a great choice.
Spot on cover. Awesome work!
Very demystifying.
All the guitar work on this amazing song has perplexed me since it came out. AMAZING video as usual. It blows my mind that, in addition to all the leads, you figured out every chord (accurately)! Thank you for this!
Fantastic job! Definitely my fav track off RAM.
Beautiful cover, wow! Everything nailed down again to a tee! As someone else pointed - I felt like I was listening to isolated tracks.
Nice how he's using muted strings as a percussive instrument in the 2nd section.
Another amazing cover!!!
Smile Away next?
Great breakdown of an intricate track!
Macca just knows stuff that no one else knows you know? Like small things like where he holds the F chord in the ‘hands across the water’ section but the electric ascends F, Ab, Bb, C with the D shape. Anyone else writing that part would have the acoustic doing the same thing but with barre chords.
Love the sweater!!!
That's awesome instrumental!!
Nice work, as always. That Greco semi-hollow(?) has a VERY nice tone(!)
Fully hollow actually
very very good !!! sweet electric part !
Absolutely fantastic job
0:30 gives me goosebumps holy damn
Amazing as always
😮 Beatiful! ❤
Wow! Nice playing 🎉
Love it.
Love it!
