Common theme here is Paul McCartney

 

Yes :D - so what have 9 of these songs got in common, while the one is the odd one out?

Odd one out is 'It's The Hard Knock Life' that Paul had nothing to do with.

 

Wrong!! - i thought this was a really hard question, but then you mentioned Paul McCartney - I thought you had spotted the connection & hence the odd one out.

Can anyone else see what connects 9 of these songs (in relation to Paul McCartney) & which other song is the odd one out?
  • Author

um, not sure about this.

 

'Blue Suede Shoes' because it was composed entirely by John Lennon?

 

No & No.

I'm going to go out soon, so it might be best to leave it rolling over until tomorrow.

 

So I will drop more hints about the answer then.

Does Paul McCartney own all the tracks? Except one?

 

Well Done. :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:

 

He owns the publishing to all those songs through MPL Publishing bar one track - Which one?

Maybe 'Yesterday', because it seems completely unobvious!

 

A good guess - because all the Lennon/McCartney songbook (Northern Songs) was infamously bought by Michael Jackson in 1985.

 

So he owned the publishing to the likes of Hey Jude, Let It Be, Come Together, She Loves You, Help, All You Need Is Love, etc.

 

However he has had to sell a 50% of his stake in the publishing in the last few weeks to Sony to avoid going bankrupt.
