Linda McCartney “The Light Comes From Within“ official video from the Wide Prairie album. Pick up your copy from your local record store or online HERE: Paul McCartney on the song “The Light Comes From Within“: “If ‘I Got Up’ showed Linda’s strong opposition to oppression, then The Light took it a few steps further. During the last couple of years of her life, we were required to make many trips “up to London” for one treatment or another. We always tried to put the journey time to good use. She and I talked a lot about this album, and the lyrics to this song were finished during one such trip. When we came to record the vocal, which was sadly to be her last, I said half-jokingly, “You can’t sing this”. She looked at me with a sparkle in her eye and said “You wanna bet?” It was her answer to all the people who had ever put her down and that whole dumb male chauvinist attitude that to her had caused so much harm in our society. God bless her
