}} "Jet" is a song by Paul McCartney and Wings from their album ''Band on the Run''. Supposedly written about a puppy that McCartney owned, the song was the first British and American single to be released from the album. The song peaked at number 7 in both the British and American charts on 30 March 1974, also charting in multiple countries in Europe.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.allmusic.com/artist/paul-mccartney-p4865/charts-awards/billboard-singles )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.theofficialcharts.com/artist/_/paul%20mccartney/ )〕 It has been released on numerous compilation albums, and has since become one of the band's most well-known tracks. Along with "Helen Wheels" and "Junior's Farm", "Jet" is another McCartney song where his primary inspiration for composing the song arose in daily life.〔Rees, Dafydd, and Luke Crampton (1991).

ISBN 0-87436-661-5.〕 ==Background== Reviewers have reported that the subject of the song is McCartney's Labrador Retriever dog named "Jet". McCartney has also substantiated this claim. However, in a 2010 interview on the UK television channel ITV1 for the program ''Wings: Band on the Run'' (to promote the November 2010 CD/DVD re-release of the album) McCartney explained that Jet was the name of a pony he had owned, although many of the lyrics bore little relation to the subject; indeed, the true meaning of the lyrics has defied all attempts at decryption. The song's use of the word "suffragette" was described by McCartney as "crazy" and "silly", not having any deep inspiration. 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「Jet (song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
