Paul McCartney’s Camber Sands Music Video

Paul McCartney's 'Baby's Request' may not be one of Sir Paul's finest recordings, but the music video was shot on Camber Sands so its worth a watch. I imagine this must be around the time Sir Paul fell in love with the area, he still lives up the road at Blossom Wood Farm in Peasmarsh which he purchased in 1973 and I’ve heard he flies his jet out of Lydd airport.

Here’s the lyrics to Baby's Request, so you can have a sing along.

When the moon lays his head on a pillow
And the stars settle down for a rest
Just do me one small favor, I beg you
Please play me my baby's request

It's the song that we heard when we started
Now the birds have all flown from our nest
But you could bring back memories departed
By playing my baby's request

My baby said that she knows how it goes
But you're the one that really knows
So go ahead, just one more time
And then we'll go to bed

But you could bring back memories departed
By playing my baby's request

My baby said she that knows how it goes
But you're the one that really knows
So go ahead, just one more time
And then we'll go to bed

When the moon lays his head on a pillow
And the stars settle down for a rest
Just do me one small favor, I beg you
Please play me my baby's request

Play me my baby's request
Please, play me my baby's request
One more time
