Single Notes

'Tug of War' is the title track from Paul's 1982 album. The phrase 'tug of war' has a double meaning, as it refers to both the game involving two teams pulling a rope across a marker and an emotional tug of trying to see both sides of a situation.

When you're a kid you think things will be straightforward, but when you're older and you've experienced more, you realise it's an everlasting war between good and bad. I thought everyone had great families, but they don't. I thought the sun would always shine, but it won't... So, what with one thing and another, it's a tug of war.
Paul
