Jenny Lewis and Jonathan Rice dropped in on Conan O'Brien Thursday night for a typically charming performance — but even if you were glued to the TV, you didn't see them play this track, "Scissor Runner," which RollingStone.com is proud to present now. (It was in our Top 50 Songs of 2010.) Thanks to Jenny, Jonathan and Conan for sharing!

“Helen Wheels”

Paul McCartney | 1973

A rollicking good-time hard rocker, "Helen Wheels" was not about a woman but about Paul McCartney's Land Rover, the anthemic chorus voicing the vehicle's reckless joy as "she" took to the road. The song was added to the U.S. version of Band on the Run but was issued only as a single in McCartney's native U.K. "I like that because it's a British road song and there's not many of those around," said McCartney. "It's always Route 66. But Carlisle? How many songs have got Carlisle in them?"
