Following in the steps of his self-titled debut solo album 'McCartney', featuring Paul playing every instrument and writing and recording every song, Paul McCartney releases 'McCartney III.’ Paul hadn’t planned to release an album in 2020, but in the isolation of “Rockdown,” he soon found himself fleshing out some existing musical sketches and writing even more new ones.

Lyrics
The kiss of Venus
Has got me on the go
She scored a bullseye
In the early morning glow
Early morning glow

(Verse 1)
Have ya
Read the paper
People talkin
About which side they’re takin
And if you know then baby what’s your take on it
Does it make you want to leave
Cuz I could look the other way for ya

Reflected mountains in a lake
Is this too much to take?
Asleep or wide awake?
And if the world begins to shake
Will something have to break?
Or would we stay awake?

The kiss of Venus
Has got me on the go
She scored a bullseye
In the early morning glow
Early morning glow

(Verse 2)
Have ya read the paper
people talkin
Without no education
Go to college
Go find your major
Realize you’re minor in the scheme of everything

  • @CrookDistrict.
    Dominic Fike singing a Paul McCartney song. What a time to be alive!
  • @NcMuggets
    I really hope Dominic keeps doing more rock oriented music. He’s got a really great voice that you just don’t get from his rap/rnb stuff.
  • @amberleeh
    Dominic has been my favourite upcoming artist for the last three years, he's finally getting the recognition he deserves and I feel like a proud mom!!!!

    The little gasp/breathe in at 2:04 đŸ˜©đŸ˜©đŸ˜© Why isn't this rock version on Spotify!!!!
  • @lanadelreysvape
    the original version is good but dominic version is just his voice is suited for it so much i love it
  • @Bleefitzgerald
    Absolutely spectacular! I was worried that an album like this would take away from Paul’s excellence but it has truly only added to it!! I hope Paul continues partnering with these fantastic younger artists, it’s such a fresh and respectful chapter in his legacy!!!
  • @mailbox4820
    I love McCartney but Dominic’s version is awesome. He ‘owns’ this song.
  • @lauitucomp
    Why is this version so much better than the one on the album??
  • @DanicaRutland
    Dominic is soooo talented. Ive been obsessed with his music for months now
  • @DankScole
    Paul this was BRILLIANT. I’m so happy to be alive & able to witness such a beautiful masterpiece ❀
  • @ronwilliams357
    Dominic sings with the dynamic range of a Beatles-era Paul, so it's an interesting version of what Paul singing it back then might sound like. But it really highlights how evolved Paul's songwriting has become, because it's definitely not a "Beatle" type song.
  • @JBDazen
    Wow! This guy is amazing. His studio version was already completely new compared to the original, and now this version is wildly different too. Amazing artist!
