By Wings. By Denny Laine and Paul McCartney. Arranged by Malcolm C Wilson. Celtic,Country,Folk,Irish,Pop,Traditional. Score. 3 pages. Malcolm Wilson #644829. Published by Malcolm Wilson (A0.1039962).This arrangement for 3-octaves handbells of the song by the rock band Wings (written by Sir Paul McCartney and Denny Laine) is designed to be shorter, and accessible, yet ensuring all ringers have interesting parts, and includes handbell techniques tower swing, echo and gyro.
The song was written in tribute to the picturesque Kintyre peninsula in Scotland and its headland, the Mull of Kintyre, where Paul McCartney has owned High Park Farm since 1966. The song was Wings' biggest hit in Britain where it became the 1977 Christmas number one, remaining at number 1 for 9 weeks, and was the first single to sell over two million copies nationwide. It is one of the best-selling singles of all time in the United Kingdom. The lyrics of the first verse, also used as the repeating chorus, are an ode to the area's natural beauty and sense of home.
