Song facts
“Love Mix” is a song recorded in 1987 during the sessions with producer Phil Ramone. It was released 10 years after, as the B-Side of the “Beautiful Night” single. But its history starts in the early Seventies, as “Love Mix” contains a snippet of a demo entitled “Waiting For The Sun To Shine” which appeared on the Piano Tape.
I know another of the songs, “Love Mix”, has a refrain that he’d had knocking around for years.
Yeah, that’s true. I mean, I think every great writer has things that are somewhere, sitting in scraps of tape or scraps of memory, of something that might be a good bridge someday or a good verse, and never finishing it. So sharing that with me was the way I found and heard a lot of these songs that were in development.
Phil Ramone, remembering the 1987 sessions with Paul McCartney – Interview in Beatlefan N°119, July / August 1999
“Love Mix” was included in the 2020 reissue of “Flaming Pie” but was not remastered.

Lyrics
We Got A Love Mix
A Love Mix
Love Mix
Love Mix
I Thought At The Time When You Walked In My Life
What's Gonna Become Of My Rainbow?
Now With The Help Of A Love And A Wife
I'm Gonna Get Some Of That Rainbow Now
Oh-oh-oh, Waiting For The Sun To Shine In The Meadow
Oh-oh-oh, Waiting For The Sun To Shine
If I Repeat What I Said At The Start
What's Gonna Become Of My Rainbow?
So To The Beat Of A Hurrying Heart
We're Gonna Get Some Of That Rainbow Now
Ooh!
Oh-oh-oh, We're Waiting For The Sun To Shine In The Meadow
Oh-oh-oh, Waiting For The Sun To Shine
Oh-oh-oh, Waiting For The Sun To Shine In The Meadow
Oh-oh-oh, Waiting For The Sun To Shine
Love Mix

Oh-oh-oh, I'm Waiting For The Sun To Shine In The Meadow,
Oh-oh-oh, I'm Waiting For The Sun To Shine.

Oh-oh-oh, Waiting For The Sun To
