James Taylor – ‘Mean Old Man’
The Beach Boys – ‘God Only Knows’
Chinmaya Dunster & Vidroha Jamie – ‘Chance Meeting’
Nitin Sawhney – ‘Sunset’
Nat King Cole – ‘The Very Thought Of You’
Maria João Pires – ‘Nocturne No. 2 In E Flat Major’
Colin Hay – ‘Going Somewhere’
Steadman – ‘Carried’
The Julian Bream Consort – ‘Galliard’
George Harrison – ‘Marwa Blues’
Glenn Aitken – ‘The Way’
Donovan – ‘Sunny Goodge Street’
Fred Astaire – ‘Cheek To Cheek’

According to the article, Macca also singled out three of his own tunes:
‘Temporary Secretary’ from his 1980 album McCartney II, ‘Calicoe Skies’ from 1997’s Flaming Pie as well as his composition for the London Symphony Orchestra titled ‘Spiral.’
