The single was the first to note McCartney’s name on a Wings single. It would sell in excess of 1 million copies in the US and would be ranked the 5th biggest hit there for 1973. Of the 41 hits which had an involvement from a Beatles member, only George Harrison’s ‘Ding Dong’ would have a lower top 20 points total as it only spent 1 week at 20.
