About The Song
'Maybe I'm Amazed' is a song written by Paul McCartney that was first released on his McCartney album on 17 April 1970.
Although the studio version from the album was never released as a single, it still remains one of McCartney's most treasured songs. Originally, McCartney dedicated the song to his wife, Linda, who had helped him during the break-up of The Beatles.
Later, McCartney's band Wings released a single of a live performance of the song from the band's 1976 tour of America, which became a top-ten hit in the United States.
