Your article about Paul McCartney’s new musical release said that it will be his first musical output since 2015 (Paul McCartney to release first new solo single in four years, 19 June). However, in 2016 Paul wrote and performed a song for Lupus Films’ animated feature film Ethel & Ernest. The film was an adaptation of the award-winning graphic novel by Raymond Briggs. Paul’s song, In the Blink of an Eye, was released in October 2016 by Decca Records. It was included on the original motion picture soundtrack CD that accompanied the film. The CD actually featured two McCartney tunes that were used in the film. The second, called Walking in the Park with Eloise, was written by Paul’s father, Jim McCartney, in the 1920s.
