Come Together! There is new music from the Lennon and McCartney songbook, but not as you might expect. Taken rom the album “Beautiful Nothing” James McCartney made waves when he revealed that he’d co-written “Primrose Hill” with Sean Ono Lennon — and indeed, the song’s wistful melancholy evokes the work of their fathers. The folk-tinged acoustic ballad tells a simple but poignant story of fond remembrance and heartsick longing. “You disappear forever / forever’s a long word / but never’s not long enough / to be loving you,” McCartney sings. It’s a turn of phrase most songwriters would kill to write he learned from the best, after all.
James McCartney and Sean Ono Lennon – the sons of Beatles bandmates Sir Paul McCartney and John Lennon – have co-written the song The reflective, acoustic ballad is an ode to the power of London’s panoramic viewing spot in Regent’s Park.
Announcing the release with his “good friend” McCartney said the track left him feeling “excited”.
