#1 Maybe I'm Amazed vs. #16 Somedays MAYBE I'M AMAZED.
#2 1985 vs. #18 Friends To Go 1985 is a blast. Friends to Go doesn't rate with me.
#3 Wanderlust vs. #14 That Was Me THAT WAS ME. Rocking fun over art.
#4 Too Much Rain vs. #20 Here Today TOO MUCH RAIN is more universal.
#5 Too Many People vs. #12 Eat At Home This one is more of a struggle than I would had thought. Eat at Home came up on my iPod today while I was out delivering my route. I got some giddy reactions from passer-bys. I had it a little loud. TOO MANY PEOPLE still takes this one.
#6 Dear Boy vs. #11 Let Me Roll It Two weak songs for me. DEAR BOY.
#7 Every Night vs. #23 Junk EVERY NIGHT is excellent.
#8 Ballroom Dancing vs. #24 Heart Of The Country BALLROOM DANCING, Tug of War version. It seemed so completely out of the blue. I didn't know Paul had it in him. Heart of the Country seems like a little knock-off song in comparison. (Although I wouldn't want to knock it!)

#1 Maybe I’m Amazed vs. #16 Somedays (Maybe I’m Amazed. One of my favourites gone.)
#2 Nineteen Hundred And Eighty Five vs. #18 Friends To Go (Friends To Go.)
#3 Wanderlust vs. #14 That Was Me (Wanderlust. It’s Wanderlust for me.)
#4 Too Much Rain vs. #20 Here Today (Too Much Rain. CAC is full of good songs.)
#5 Too Many People vs. #12 Eat At Home (Too Many People. This is Paul’s greatest solo rocker.)
# 6 Dear Boy vs. #11 Let Me Roll It (Dear Boy.)
#7 Every Night vs. #23 Junk (Junk.)
# 8 Ballroom Dancing vs. #24 Heart Of The Country (Ballroom Dancing. Not a huge fan of either of these. Both average IMO.)

#1 Maybe I'm Amazed vs. #16 Somedays-Very tough choice. Maybe I'm Amazed great performance, but SOMEDAYS is actually a better song.
#2 1985 vs. #18 Friends To Go-easy choice for NINETEEN EIGHTY FIVE
#3 Wanderlust vs. #14 That Was Me-another tough one, but WANDERLUST is my personal favorite to win this tourney.
#4 Too Much Rain vs. #20 Here Today-Years ago I would have gone with Here Today, but TOO MUCH RAIN has grown in stature for me.
#5 Too Many People vs. #12 Eat At Home-TOO MANY PEOPLE wins battle of two strong RAM songs.
#6 Dear Boy vs. #11 Let Me Roll It-DEAR BOY is an easy pick.
#7 Every Night vs. #23 Junk-EVERY NIGHT a comfortable winner of MCCARTNEY tracks.
#8 Ballroom Dancing vs. #24 Heart Of The Country-Neither of these songs would win any of the first seven matches, but both are OK. BALLROOM DANCING is my pick.

#1 Maybe I'm Amazed vs. #16 Somedays Easy enough, even though I like both songs.
#2 1985 vs. #18 Friends To Go A bit tougher, "1985" is just a tour de force
#3 Wanderlust vs. #14 That Was Me Very close.
#4 Too Much Rain vs. #20 Here Today "Here Today" is nice, but not majestic.
#5 Too Many People vs. #12 Eat At Home Easy call.
#6 Dear Boy vs. #11 Let Me Roll It Very close.
#7 Every Night vs. #23 Junk Close, but "Every Night" gets the nod.
#8 Ballroom Dancing vs. #24 Heart Of The Country I'm still voting for the BROAD STREET version.

Pushing this back to the top seeing if I get another response or two. If not, the next round will start later this week.

#1 Maybe I'm Amazed vs. #16 Somedays: Primal McCartney versus Culture Vulture McCartney, give me Primal Mac any day!
#2 1985 vs. #18 Friends To Go: Even Primal Paul can't beat Quarryman Paul here, Paul taps an early Beatles vibe oh so cool!
#3 Wanderlust vs. #14 That Was Me: Not even close.
#4 Too Much Rain vs. #20 Here Today: I view both songs as being about John, kind of, as the latter is very literally about John but the former could loosely and quite sincerely relate to the death of a close friend(like John) as part of the rain!
#5 Too Many People vs. #12 Eat At Home: Both are great Postulate Paul, this pairing should be illegal!
#6 Dear Boy vs. #11 Let Me Roll It: Well, LMRI is from BOTR, Paul's big sell out.
#7 Every Night vs. #23 Junk: Tough, two charmers from Macca.
#8 Ballroom Dancing vs. #24 Heart Of The Country: I think "The Big BD" is big bullshit! "Wave the sword," indeed!
