More than a few eyebrows were raised when Sir Paul McCartney announced that the title of his upcoming solo album will be Kisses On The Bottom (artwork below.)
McCartney has decided to shed a bit of light on the title, which he explains comes from a cover of Fats Waller's 1935 hit "I’m Gonna Sit Right Down And Write Myself a Letter," which is on the new album.
The title is taken directly from a line in the lyrics that reads: "I’m gonna write words oh so sweet / They’re gonna knock me off of my feet / A lot of kisses on the bottom / I’ll be glad I got ‘em."
Kisses on the Bottom, which features mainly covers as well as two new tracks, will be released February 7.
