}} "Getting Closer" is a rock song from the Anglo-American rock band Wings, Paul McCartney's post-Beatles band. The song was released on the album ''Back to the Egg''. ==Background== Despite being released in 1979, Paul McCartney wrote "Getting Closer" in 1974, recording a piano demo for the song later that year. Upon being resurrected by the band for ''Back to the Egg'', the song, originally at a slower tempo, was transformed into a "driving rocker."〔 Like most of the songs off of ''Back to the Egg'', "Getting Closer" bears an influence from punk and new wave music. Author and ''Mojo'' contributor Tom Doyle describes Wings' version as "power-popping" and reminiscent of the English band Squeeze.〔Doyle, p. 174〕 Juber said of the guitars used in the song: "I think I played my Martin D28 on the rhythm track and some Les Paul Custom (the one in the video) for the electric."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://web.archive.org/web/20070701151956/http://www.laurencejuber.com/wings/backtotheegg.html )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Getting Closer (song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
