One of the rare original songs on McCartney's “Give My Regards To Broad Street” soundtrack was “No Values”. However, it was s not composed for the film. The song had been in the works since late 1980, when Wings did some demos that can be found on bootlegs. McCartney recorded another version of the song at AIR Studios on Montserrat in February 1981, during the Tug Of War sessions. The final version for the film was done in December 1982 at AIR in London, with the same musicians as on ‘Not Such A Bad Boy’.
McCartney has said that "No Values" came to him in a dream, much like 'Yesterday' did. But here, he dreamt that the Rolling Stones were playing the song: "They were all there, Bill, Charlie, Keith and all the lads; and Mick was up there singing, “No values, seems to me that you’ve still got no values…” I couldn’t quite hear all the lyrics but I heard all the chorus and I woke up and thought I really like that song that they do. Then I thought, Hey, wait a minute – there is no song called “No Values”. They don’t do that song. My brain had just created it, or however it happens. I haven’t told Mick Jagger – he’d probably claim the copyright!"
The 1980 outtakes still have a bit of a Rolling Stone feel, but by 1982 that had gone and it had become a typical 'Wings' track.
A good occasion to set Artificial Intelligence to work, and produce a version of "No Values" with the Rolling Stones swagger; is this the way McCartney heard it in his dream?
