stewdogg Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 Today I learned that the song on the postcode lottery 'sombodys knocking at the door, someboys ringing the bell' is a real song. It's by Paul McCartney and Wings no less! Feel a bit of a tit that I never knew that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ad uses the Billy Paul cover version of the song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted June 25, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted June 25, 2021 It's a belter, from Wings At The Speed Of Sound. It's no Band On The Run, but it's a decent album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Divorced Dad Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 Today I learned cows are fucking terrifying. Went to a friends house out in the sticks for a few beers and decided to walk home cross country. Got charged by a field of cows and had to climb a barbed wire fence to escape them.
