    Great low-key, peaceful, inspiring song.
    OMG, Macca had song-range that other people would kill for, across any number of genres and stylings.

    Seriously, it should NOT BE POSSIBLE for someone to come up with such a wide-range of song & performance material like McCartney did. Ma dudes… It is plainly and unbelievably Miraculous.

    Haha, and look at me-- with a gargantuan song-crush upon Mssr Lennon!

    I wouldn’t call Bluebird or anything by Wings yacht rock, but I don’t think that’s a very solidly defined genre

      It’s like the difference between literature and pornography: you know it when you see it.

      (Seriously I wanted to jump off a building when I saw a play list called Yacht Rock and knew and liked nearly all songs. Le sigh )

    I’d say it’s borderline. Definitely not archetypal but it wouldn’t be out of place on a radio station or playlist.

        But they’re not all BS. Yacht Rock is complete BS. Rick Beato says it far better than I.
