'Mull of Kintyre' stands as a testament to how even the most gifted
songwriters can turn out a real turkey at Christmas time.
Despite featuring a chorus of bagpipes and being released at the
height of the punk explosion, the song stayed at Number One for
a staggering nine weeks - finally being knocked off the top of the
chart by Althia and Donna with 'Uptown Top Ranking' on February
4th, 1978.
It lost the accolade of being the worst ever Paul McCartney song
to 'We All Stand Together' with the Frog Chorus in 1984.
