Paul McCartney was not a rocker. He was 100% sugar pop all the way. If not for Lennon the Beatles would have been nothing but a soft pop singles band.
Even in Band on the Run he adds that totally sappy pop interlude.
Silly little love songs indeed. One of the greatest musos ever? Of course. But the dude specialized in sap.
