When you think of Paul McCartney, the first thing that comes to mind is The Beatles, of course, and their universe-altering stardom in the 1960s. But after The Beatles split in 1970, McCartney went on to found another group that would go on to big stardom as well — Wings, the band behind such iconic hits as “My Love,” “Live and Let Die” from the James Bond film of the same name, “Band on the Run,” “Silly Love Songs” and many more.

Fans love those big hits, but in a new fan Q&A posted to his official website, McCartney let fans in on which of his lesser-known tracks hold a special place in his heart.

A fan named Aidan wrote in on Facebook to ask about “Daytime Nightime Suffering,” noting it was both his favorite and one of Paul’s late wife Linda McCartney’s favorites (Linda was a vocalist and keyboard player for Wings). Paul replied warmly:

“I agree! ‘Daytime Nightime Suffering’ is one of my favourites, as it was Linda’s. But another song I like a lot is ‘Arrow Through Me’. It is lovely to see these songs reappear from time to time, mainly when they are used in a film or TV show. I think a lot of young people discover my songs this way. Thanks for listening!”

It’s a reminder that beyond the radio staples and Top 10 hits, McCartney’s catalog is full of hidden gems. Both songs he mentioned come from Wings’ late-’70s run:

“Daytime Nightime Suffering” (1979), the B-side to “Goodnight Tonight,” was described by McCartney himself as “pro-women” and “very humanistic,” a reflection on the plight of women that gave the 1979 B-side unusual depth and resonance, according to a 2001 Billboard interview (via Beatles Bible), and music site AlbumReviews.blog called it “the kind of song that Paul McCartney excels on — a mid-tempo tune with ornate studio magic, a deceptively sophisticated chord sequence, and a great bass-line.”

“Arrow Through Me” (1979) is a soulful cut from the Back to the Egg album that McCartney said in his book The Lyrics: 1956 to the Present he has “always had a soft spot for.”

“I have always had a soft spot for this song. There’s a nice horn riff in it, and it’s funky. Sometimes you write to get a sort of feeling rather than a perfectly ‘correct’ lyric. Sometimes the lyric can be secondary to the feeling. This one has as much, or more, to do with the feel of the song, the groove,” wrote McCartney.

McCartney’s reference to songs being discovered by younger generations when they are used in film or TV is certainly what has happened with “Arrow Through Me.” It was used on the TV series adaptation of High Fidelity on Hulu, starring Zoe Kravitz (daughter of legendary rocker Lenny Kravitz and original High Fidelity star Lisa Bonet).

McCartney’s upcoming book Wings: The Story of a Band on the Run is out November 6. You can pre-order a copy now.
