1971 single by Paul and Linda McCartney
"Eat at Home" is a 1971 single by Paul and Linda McCartney that also appeared on their album Ram from the same year. The song, a standard rock number, features McCartney on lead vocals, electric guitar and bass, and Linda McCartney performing backing vocals.[1]
Lyrics and music
Paul McCartney described the lyrics of "Eat at Home" as "a plea for home cooking – it`s obscene."[2] Beatle biographer John Blaney described it as fitting within the theme of many of McCartney`s songs of the period, "extolling the virtues of domestic bliss and ... the love of a good woman."[3] Music professor Vincent Benitez also considers the theme to be a celebration of Paul`s domestic bliss with Linda in the wake of the Beatles` breakup.[4]
"Eat at Home" is in the key of A major.[4] It is mostly a three-chord rock song, with predominant use of the tonic chord of A, the dominant chord of E and the subdominant chord of D.[4] It also employs the leading-tone chord of G in turnaround sections between the verses and the bridge passages.[4] Blaney described the music as being an "upbeat slice of retro-pop" that was influenced by McCartney`s hero Buddy Holly.[3]
CBS`s 16 track sheet for "Eat at Home" (plus two other songs) shows it named as "Come on Little Lady", the song`s opening line.
Reception
Music critic Stewart Mason of AllMusic described it as McCartney`s homage to Buddy Holly,[5] and Stephen Thomas Erlewine, also of Allmusic, described it as "a rollicking, winking sex song."[6] In a contemporary review for Ram, Jon Landau of Rolling Stone described "Eat at Home" as one of two only good songs he enjoyed on the album, also comparing it to Buddy Holly.[7] Goldmine contributor John Borack rated "Eat at Home" among his top 10 McCartney solo songs, praising its melody, its "slightly country-influence guitar pickin’" and Denny Seiwell`s "pounding" drums.[8]
Although John Lennon was highly critical of many of the songs on Ram, feeling they were veiled attacks on him, he publicly admitted that he enjoyed this particular song quite a bit.[9]
Although not released as a single in the UK or the US, "Eat at Home" was released as a single in several European countries, South America, Japan, Australia and New Zealand, and reached No. 7 in the Netherlands and #6 in Norway.[1][10] Even in the US it received considerable radio airplay without having been released as a single.[2]
Cover versions
Little Joy often included a cover of the song in their setlist during the Little Joy tour.
Personnel
- Paul McCartney – lead vocals, bass guitar, electric guitar
- Linda McCartney – backing vocals
- David Spinozza – electric guitar
- Denny Seiwell – drums
