McCartney Times

Paul McCartney was famously born in Liverpool, England, but he famously once wrote a song about a very different place. That place would be the Kintyre peninsula in Argyll and Bute, located in the stunning southwestern region of Scotland.Videos by American SongwriterThe song in question is “Mull Of Kintyre”, named after the famous headland in the area. A collaborative track written by McCartney and Denny Laine for Wings, this non-album single became a massive hit upon its release. “Mull Of Kintyre” quickly became Wings’ biggest hit song in Britain, and also one of the best-selling singles in the United Kingdom period. It was particularly popular during Christmas of that year.
