Waterfalls (Paul McCartney song)

"Waterfalls" is a Paul McCartney ballad from his first solo album after Wings, McCartney II. The song has a stripped-down sound, with McCartney only playing a Fender Rhodes electric piano and a synthesizer and singing. It was released as a single with "Check My Machine" as its B-Side and reached chart position #9 in the UK.[1] [2]  In the US, however, it was his first single ever to miss the Billboard Hot 100 chart, only reaching number 106 despite being the follow-up to the number one hit "Coming Up".[3]

When questioned on singles he wished were more successful, McCartney stated, "There's quite a few, actually...'Waterfalls', I think is nice." He also commented that TLC's single "Waterfalls" carries elements of his song. ==Personnel == ==Other versions == Sloan recorded a more uptempo version of the song on the McCartney tribute album Listen To What The Man Said.
