SINGLES
PAUL McCARTNEY - C'Mon People
Reviewed by Alex White
Macca s second single from his new
album Off The Ground is a change of
pace from the boppy Top 20 hit
Hope Of Deliverance.
Weighing in at a ponderous 5 minutes
45 seconds, C'Mon People is a plodding
keyboard ballad with brass section
and occasional guitar licks.
Although in the same upbeat groove as
Hope Of Deliverance, Biker Like An Icon
from the album would have been a much
better single.

McCartneys' animal rights gesture
Paul and Linda McCartney have turned
down an advertisement in the programme
for Paul's forthcoming world tour from
US car maker General Motors because of
the company's animal rights record.
The decision to turn down the ad,
worth a five-figure sum in pounds, was
made when the McCartneys discovered
GM were using live animals as crash-
test 'dummies'.
The space has instead been given away
free to animal rights organisation
P.E.T.A. - People for the Ethical
Treatment of Animals.
