1) Paul McCart… Read Full Bio ↴There is more than one artist sharing the name Wings;
1) Paul McCartney and Wings (also known by their original name Wings) were a British–American rock band formed in 1971 by former Beatle Paul McCartney, his wife Linda McCartney on keyboards, session drummer Denny Seiwell, and former Moody Blues guitarist Denny Laine. Wings were noted for frequent personnel changes along with their commercial successes, going through three lead guitarists and four drummers. However, the core trio of the McCartneys and Laine remained intact throughout the group's existence.
Created following the McCartneys' 1971 album Ram, the band's first two albums, Wild Life (1971) and Red Rose Speedway (1973) (the latter featuring guitarist Henry McCullough), were viewed as artistic disappointments beside Paul's work with the Beatles. After the release of the title track of the James Bond movie Live and Let Die, McCullough and Seiwell resigned from the band. The McCartneys and Laine then released 1973's Band on the Run, a commercial and critical success that spawned two top ten singles in "Jet" and the title track. Following that album, the band recruited guitarist Jimmy McCulloch and drummer Geoff Britton, only for Britton to quit shortly afterwards and be replaced by Joe English. With the new line-up, Wings released 1975's Venus and Mars, which included the US number one single "Listen to What the Man Said", and undertook a highly successful world tour over 1975–76. Intended as more of a group effort, Wings at the Speed of Sound (1976) was issued midway through the tour and featured the hit singles "Silly Love Songs" and "Let 'Em In".
In 1977, the band earned their only UK number one single, with "Mull of Kintyre", which became the then-best-selling UK single in history. Wings experienced another line-up shuffle, however, with both McCulloch and English departing before the release of the group's 1978 album London Town. The McCartneys and Laine again added new members, recruiting guitarist Laurence Juber and drummer Steve Holley. The resulting album, Back to the Egg, was a relative flop, with its singles under-performing and the critical reception negative. During the supporting tour, Paul was arrested in Japan for cannabis possession, putting the band on hold. Despite a final US number one with a live-recorded version of "Coming Up" (1979), after Laine departed from the band, Wings discontinued in 1981.
Wings had twelve top-10 singles (including one number one) in the UK and fourteen top 10 singles (including six number ones) in the US. All 23 singles released by Wings reached the US top 40, and one two-sided hit, "Junior's Farm"/"Sally G", reached the top 40 with each side. Of the nine albums released by Wings, all went top 10 in either the UK or the US, with five consecutive albums topping the US charts. Paul McCartney was unquestionably Wings' leader and dominant creative force, but Denny Laine, Jimmy McCulloch, and Linda McCartney all contributed in songwriting, and Laine, McCulloch, Joe English, and Linda McCartney all performed lead vocals.
The success of Wings was a vindication for McCartney. His first few post-Beatles albums were highly criticized and often dismissed by critics as "lightweight" next to the more serious nature of his former bandmates' solo output. But by the mid-1970s, the solo careers of the other three former Beatles were in varying degrees of decline, with John Lennon putting his career on hold in 1975 for the first five years of his son Sean's life. A year later, George Harrison had all but retired from live performances, with his new releases failing to match the success of his initial solo output. Ringo Starr was living in Los Angeles and was writing and recording, but as a solo artist had not been performing onstage other than rare guest appearances. Meanwhile, Wings continued to tour regularly and enjoy much commercial success. According to author Robert Rosen, by 1980, Lennon was envious enough of McCartney's continuing success to make his re-emergence on the music scene.
One of the criticisms of Wings was that the other members were little more than sidemen backing up a solo McCartney. Guitarist Henry McCullough quit the band because he grew tired of being told by McCartney exactly what to play, and said that Wings were never a "real band." On the other hand, other former members of Wings such as Joe English and Laurence Juber have said that they were allowed a degree of creative freedom. In an interview, Juber, Wings' third lead guitarist, said, "I was a sideman, but the job assignment very much included considering myself a part of the band ... In all its incarnations Wings sounded like a band, not like a solo McCartney project and I think that reflects well not only on Paul's ability to share in the creative process, but also on the importance of Denny and Linda's contributions, too. The other players brought their own personalities to the scene."
In addition to its own output, Wings recorded several songs that were released through various outlets both before and after the band's break-up. Denny Laine's 1977 solo album Holly Days was a joint effort by Laine with Paul and Linda McCartney; three songs on Laine's 1980 solo album Japanese Tears were performed by Wings with Laine on lead vocals; Laine also contributed to several songs on Paul McCartney's 1982 and 1983 solo albums Tug of War and Pipes of Peace, respectively. Juber's instrumental "Maisie"—which was backed by members of Wings—appeared on his solo album Standard Time. The McCartneys and Laine contributed backing vocals to George Harrison's 1981 tribute to John Lennon, "All Those Years Ago". Linda McCartney continued to tour and record with her husband up until her death in 1998, after which a compilation of her songs entitled Wide Prairie was released that featured seven Wings songs written or co-written by her. Wings also backed Paul's brother Mike McGear on the McGear album, as well as McGear's band the Scaffold on the single "Liverpool Lou" and its B-side "Ten Years After on Strawberry Jam". Paul McCartney also used three unreleased Wings songs as B-sides of his solo singles several years after Wings' break-up.
Wings' 1977 single "Mull of Kintyre"/"Girls School" is still the biggest-selling non-charity single in the UK (although Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" sold more, its sales include a reissue in aid of the Terrence Higgins Trust), and it ranked fourth in the official list of all-time best-selling singles in the UK issued in 2002.
In 2001, Wingspan: Hits and History was released, a project spanning an album and a television special retrospective.

Satelit Puaka
Wings Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Gantung sampai mati
Puaka semalam lu
Itu saja jawapannya
Atau dilontarkan
Mana nak kulontarkan
Puaka durjana ini
Bagaikan satelit
Satelit puaka
Lu patut diibaratkan
Tergantung di angkasa
Bersaksikan desa
Satelit puaka lu diibaratkan
Lu saksikanlah lu punya dosa
Lu renung ke bumi sedar diri sendiri
Ku taburi pasir batu di rongga
Apakah salah dosa
Adakah terlalu berkuasa
Terlalok lupa
Lu terlupa
Lu taburi janji temberang
Janji hancing dan kotor
Adakah terlalu berkuasa terlalik lupa
Lu terlupa
The song Satelit Puaka by Wings begins with haunting and repetitive vocalizations of "Aaa... aaa... aaa..." This is followed by the first line of the song, "Gantung sampai mati," which means "hanging until death." The next line, "Puaka semalam lu," can be interpreted as "last night's ghost is haunting you," implying that the subject of the song is tormented by past mistakes.
The second verse begins with the question, "Mana nak kulontarkan," which means "where can I throw away" or "to whom can I pass on" this evil spirit. The lyrics go on to suggest that the ghost should be hung in the sky like a satellite, symbolizing the weight of the person's guilt and the constant presence of their wrongdoing.
The chorus repeats the phrase "Satelit puaka," describing this ghostly presence as hovering above and witnessing the sins of the person. The lyrics encourage self-reflection and rumination on one's own actions, because even if one tries to hide their wrongdoing or pass the blame onto someone else, the Satelit Puaka will always be there as a reminder.
Overall, this song is about the consequences of one's actions and the inescapability of guilt. The metaphor of the Satelit Puaka acts as a representation of the weight and presence of past mistakes, as well as a call to take responsibility for them.

Apakah salah dosa
Is sin a mistake
Adakah terlalu berkuasa
Are you too powerful
Terlalok lupa
Too forgetful
Lu terlupa
You forgot
Lu taburi janji temberang
You sprinkle false promises
Janji hancing dan kotor
Hollow and filthy promises
Adakah terlalu berkuasa terlalik lupa
Are you too powerful and forgetful
Lu terlupa
You forgot

@khairolazman256
lagu ni cerita tentang apa
@darthazua9167
@@khairolazman256 lagu ni zaman tok mat jadi menteri penerangan,. Tok mat Datuk Mohd Rahmat sikat tepi, bukan tok mat sekarang.
Zaman tu kerajaan anti muzik rock. Banyak lagu rock di gam atau diharamkan dimainkan di radio dan TV. Asal lirik yg berbaur kontroversi je terus kena gam. Kalau lepaspun penampilan kena ubah tak boleh rambut panjang dan mesti pakaian kemas. Asal masuk TV je terpaksa pakai blazer. Maksud tersirat "satelit puaka" dlm lagu = kementerian penerangan & RTM.
Dulu kerajaan sgt tegas dan bersifat mengongkong. Segalanya dikawal. Jadi album ni mengangkat perjuangan orang muda atau rakyat secara umum. Sebab tu saya anggap ini album yang hebat. Album perjuangan.
