• “Ebony and Ivory” foi lançada em 29 de março de 1982 e chegou ao topo das paradas tanto no Reino Unido quanto nos Estados Unidos naquele mesmo ano.
• Embora Paul McCartney tenha escrito a canção sozinho, ele e Stevie Wonder gravaram suas partes separadamente para o videoclipe por causa de conflitos de agenda, como explicado no comentário de McCartney para o conjunto de DVDs *The McCartney Years*.
• A música permaneceu por sete semanas consecutivas no primeiro lugar da Billboard Hot 100, tornando‑se o maior sucesso de 1982 nos EUA e o maior número de semanas no topo para qualquer obra solo de McCartney pós‑Beatles (só perdendo para “Hey Jude” dos Beatles).
• Foi a primeira vez que um single de um ex‑beatle alcançou a parada Billboard Black Singles, destacando seu impacto nas audiências de música negra.
• Além de liderar a Hot 100, “Ebony and Ivory” também comandou a parada Adult Contemporary por cinco semanas, mostrando sua ampla aceitação em diferentes formatos radiofônicos.
