Waterfalls was the follow-up to the hit from what solo album?
Waterfalls (Paul McCartney song) "Waterfalls" is a Paul McCartney ballad from his first solo album after Wings, "McCartney II". The song has a stripped-down sound, with McCartney only playing a Fender Rhodes electric piano and a synthesizer and singing, and a short solo most likely played on an acoustic guitar. It was released as a single with "Check My Machine" as its B-Side and reached chart position #9 in the UK. In the US, however, it was his first single ever to miss the "Billboard" Hot 100 chart, only reaching number 106 despite being the follow-up to the number one hit "Coming Up". In 2013, "Rolling Stone" rated it the #25 all-time Paul McCartney post-Beatles song, describing how it contrasted with Wings' prior single.
Red Rain (song) "Red Rain" is the first track on English rock musician Peter Gabriel's 1986 solo album "So". In the USA, it was the second single from the album and reached number three on "Billboard" magazine's Mainstream Rock chart in 1986, where it stayed for three weeks between July and August. In the rest of the world it was not released until 1987 and received less airplay and sales, peaking at 46 in the UK singles chart after entering the chart in July of that year. A live version also charted in the US and the UK in 1994.
