"Off the Ground" is a song by Paul McCartney and is from the album from the same name. This was one of Paul’s first songs made using a computer. The video can be seen on the DVD collection, The McCartney Years. The video was shot by Industrial Light & Magic. Some behind the scenes footage can be seen on the out of print VHS, Movin' On. The video features "Soggy Noodle", a short acoustic piece played as an intro which can be found as a B-side on the single release. In the US, it reached number 27 on the Adult Contemporary chart.[1]

The song was played live during The New World Tour that followed the release of the album; however, the song was omitted on the live album, Paul Is Live.
