That's Paul McCartney in the now and we are lucky to have artist in the past to remind us what a true artist is, was, will be or was! Let us live and let live!
Yes, and even more amazing that they are still being played all around the world 60 years later. I don't think I go a week without playing a few Beatle songs. Paul Weller asked an interesting question about having to play all the old hits as fans are more interested. I remember years ago, Bowie stating " he was not going to be performing the old songs anymore". Bowie soon had to change his mind as the fans let him know they would not buy tickets for his concerts. We all love the oldies. I saw McCartney at Hyde Park in 2009 and if he had not sung the Long & Winding road and all the other great Beatles songs, I would have been peeved. Must add, that day in Hyde Park was one of the best days of my life to watch someone i have admired for over 50 years.. Shame that age has altered Paul's vocals, still he is still with us, and that is what counts.
Thanks for this. Paul is not only a talented legend, but a nice, down to earth guy. Not everyone may agree, but it can’t be easy being Sir Paul. Just like it wasn’t easy for Cary Grant to live up to being Cary Grant…
No amount of praise and credit for you and everything you have ever done in music. Is never going to be too generous. You have said and done it all in music one way or another. You and your music will always be liked and loved forever by me and the world. Very well done and thank you Paul.
I'll never be able to express my love for The Beatles and how I just can't go on more than a week without putting on one of their albums. To this day I feel a deep sadness over how we lost John and then George. Thank God we still have Paul and Ringo. But their music will live forever!

Our country has produced some great talents, but Lennon and McCartney are probably the tops. Paul is an amazing musician, composer and just a very interesting guy to listen to and he never forgets where he’s from.
Yes it’s a shame he hardly wrote anything he had ghost writers. He openly admitted this most of these groups had ghost writers mcartney alias William shephard included
@@phillipbradford6976 sorry but Dylan couldn't hold a candle melodically to mccartney and only occasionally lyrically. I can't think of many catchy songs Dylan wrote that were as successful as mccartneys songs.
He always was something of a raconteur, our Paul. Loves to hold court, be in the spotlight - which is entirely consistent with how he is, and was on stage. And that's not a criticism, just an observation. He can't help it, it's a function of the person he is - and how he has chosen to deal with being so famous as well as being successful. Neither John nor George coped in the same way as they were entirely different personalities. Some would say far less given to shallowness of relating. Paul just seems to accept the world the way it is and has become very, very good at doing so.
Um ser humano muito espirituoso amável, carinhoso e de um talento de musicalidade inigualável, somos felizes em ser contemporâneo deste nobre Sir Paul M’acarthiney 🙏
Hello Mate, thank you so very much for posting this... So many of us can't watch BBC in USA. I've been watching The Beatles "GET BACK" Documentry.. I am seeing a side of Fab Four, never known before, letting me into their unique world. These four mystical men change our World, set it on fire, and through them, they brought forth people of many of bands, music, and lyrics changing everything in this big old world and still do till this very day. I take comfort somewhere on Earth, someone is hearing The Beatles for the first time, which will influence and unleash their own creativity in their life in grand way, like it did the rest of us. So all of us old folks out there, start playing our boys "The BEATLE'S "music to the younger generation and so they will have a spark of creativity somewhere on this planet. Who knows where this will take us, so let's keep the Beatles music alive for future generations!!!😍😘😉 Peace ✌🏼Love 💖 & Music 🎶😎
SO good, isn't it? lt's like they never really went away - which in some ways is true. Still very much a part of so many lives - their music and cultural influence remains strong and enduring.
@@ianbartle456 so very true Ian. The Beatles were set the world on fire with so many different people coming together to create amazing music. I always admire people in England for they appreciated and discovered our phenomenal blues singers and musicians!! Many of us never knew they even existed. (due to segregation) let alone would have heard them, if it wasn't for our brothers and sisters across the pond having the influence of the blues greats. And for that I will always be grateful for their contribution to music and other genres that came from the blues great artists....
I admire why he formed Wings and let Linda play keyboards even though she could not play the instrument. "john knew only banjo chords when we started out". Holy crap.
Yes - which says much about John's determination and drive. As John took Paul and certainly George under his wing, so Paul recognised the importance of having a tight family feel in the band. In light of this, it makes complete sense. Good thing Linda was ready for the journey - she as already a successful music photo-journalist when she linked up with Paul. She ended up with two additional successful careers: vocalist and instrumentalist with Wings, and successful purveyor of vegan meals. I get the fact there was available 'seed money' but this is still the life's work of a very very successful person by anyone's measure. I fully get why Linda's children remain so proud of her achievements. Name me the wife of another famous rockstar who achieved so much in the public eye and on their own terms.
Watching them all write in the extended Let It Be was truly amazing. Their knowledge of music although they could not read was thorough. I am sure George Martin taught them alot in this regard. You can see Martin's pain during the 8 hours of Let It Be as this was the only album he did not "officially produce" but certainly had a large hand in.
reading music has NOTHING to do with good songwriting. As a matter of fact it detracts from it! Having said that George Martin most certainly had a hand in beatles early songs
It is understandable how hard it must have been for all of them to end the Beatles. These guys started as a cover band playing dive bars for beer money and in a few years were the most famous people on earth in the most successful rock/pop band ever. Paul, John and George were all such great writers who could also sing and play so it stands to reason they would eventually go solo but when you look at the quality of the songs written when working as the Beatles it is astounding and untouchable.
The question from Mr. Simon Pegg very interesting. And yes he is the famous actor in all the mission impossible movies and much more. I think that question was pre-arranged also.
I know two people in my life who say “I’m not a fan” and the other “Beatles are so overrated”. Seriously I don’t understand their logic, it truly baffles me with those types. Beatles were the ahead of time, and appreciated as the really the best band ever. Even if you don’t like the music ones gotta see their incredible talent. And what they did in such a short time.
I agree that the Beatles were phenomenal. But not ahead of there time. They were the most effective in having an impact on opening up peoples perception of what music could be. They also wrote some of the best songs of all time. Paul McCartney mentions people who went before him who he loves. His love is music not fame.
@@andrewburman9469 what I’m referring to in saying “ahead of there time” is many of their songs could’ve been released today and gone high on the charts.
Not only that, there ability to write songs on the fly and have an albums worth of songs ready and no more than a couple weeks for much of their career. And they were performed them together live in one room and they would be flawless and appear on the record and sound as good as anything mix today with all of our modern production tools and processes. Perhaps even better.
They were essentially a '50s bar band that became so successful, George noted their committments prevented them from woodshedding by 1964! So they had to come up with material in full public view Talk about pressure!
"Paul is here to look back at his life in music..." ...which is pretty much all he's done since he MADE his music. Btw, that's not an insult. McCartney's career DESERVES a near-constant retrospection.
Yeah - bouncy, isn't it? And iconic. And he never released anything else that is remotely like it really, despite there being lots of other iconic piano songs from Fool On The Hill, Hey Jude, Let It Be and The Long and Winding Road to Maybe I'm Amazed, Live and Let Die and Let 'Em In. Such undeniable variety there.
I feel SO old - I would’ve started applauding as soon as he started the opening notes of “Lady Madonna”…but this audience didn’t seem to recognize the song until he started singing! LOL
Yeah, after Wings the listenership waned. But I absolutely love Flaming Pie, Chaos & Creation, Driving Rain, Memory Almost Full, McCartney III, etc. Some great stuff!
@@polytheneprentiss1534I love it to. I think as Paul aged his music matured. What other rocker even close to his age composes relevant music? He will always have his fan base.
Enjoyed this very much. As a prolific songwriter ... who has never gotten anywhere, it's refreshing to hear Paul talk about the process. The easiest thing to do as a songwriter is to write about where your heart is at the moment. Something stirs you greatly ... and this mysterious God given gift births a new song. I love Paul's story about Hey Jude .... how he was on his way over to be a comfort to Julian. I've told a lot of people that story
McCartney was never an old hippy. None of them The Beatles were. The hippies may have loved them, everyone did but The Beatles were above being members of a sub culture. Lennon wrote All You Need is Love and around that time McCartney wrote Your Mother Should Know. Can’t see the hippy message in that. The Beatles were the most eclectic band on the planet , every album had a whole different mix of songs, most of which did not have a hippy message. Live and Let Die was a Bond movie theme, the title was already decided, it was a job, not a reflection of his actual ideals.
It's just a pity that for the vast majority of Beatles fans around the world it would be almost impossible to get to see Mc Cartney in a setting like this . I guess that's just life .
12:15 Paul's decision to go with the Wings seems very similar to Eric Clapton's decision to play with the Dominos. No super group ambition, just being part of a band.
I am devastated to see that all these years have won over his voice... this magical instrument that has seduced us so much in concert, from the beginning of the Beatles to today. Thank you Sir Paul ...I will always be an eternal fan and follow you in all artistic creations, whose secret and talent you have. Thank you
@@gototcm McCartney called it quits in the early 80's. His voice was spot on for a long time after that. If smoking is the cause the serious degradation of his voice over the last 10 years, it laid in waiting a long time before revealing itself.
For real, I knew this day would eventually come and have been dreading it. But every year he'd surprise me, high register still firmly intact 😲 Quite stunned it held out as long as it did, considering some bad habits and not exactly conscientious voice care. A very gradual degrade was noticeable as time wore on, but now it's pronounced. But waddya gonna do right 🤷♂️ That singular voice had an incredible extended run and there'll never be another quite like it. We have a precious treasure trove recorded for safekeeping and future gens. RIP The Voice 🙏
Every year I would watch concert footage and be surprised how well his voice held up. Finally it has broken down, but it lasted longer than I ever thought.
I have loved the Beatles since “I want to hold your hand🎸”. Why not just let them be great? They truly are a phenomenon that brought a lot of musical enjoyment to so many. We all have different tastes in music and, that’s OK. Just let others enjoy their music without making critical comments. My Mom always used to say, “Say something nice or be quiet.” Kind of a nice motto, don’t you think? Warmest regards to you Paul. I do enjoyed the interview.
The first Beatles album I listened to was my mums copy of the love songs album in the 70’s. Then I was introduced to Wings, it took a while to join the dots as a child that Imagine and Mull of Kintyre were from former Beatles Etc. I read about the Beatles split and as an 11 year old with a creative imagination my first thought on hearing Starting Over was that it was a love song to Paul McCartney. As I’ve grown and written some of my own songs my belief in that has been cemented even more. Of course it may have been about many other things but as Paul says he would not have necessarily said he loved John directly unless drunk or in a song. Anyway what do the thoughts of an 11 year old matter? If only they had been together like the early days, who knows what could have emerged.
Paul your right I pick up my guitar and play chords but I don't write, I remember. I've always stared at Beatles,the pictures,the albums especially at Paul. I think you are why I love the Beatles. The love Is like a brother you am sorry.
very interesting that paul revealed the truth about music being a vehicle too open up about inner feelings , I believe that why the creator gave us simple beings this media
When Pink Floyd were first recording in Abbey Rd, The Beatles also were recording. Paul would wander to other studios to see what was happening. He heard Pink Floyd, then had a good talk with them giving advice.
I always wonder if Paul’s approach to his first solo album was influenced by ‘John Wesley Harding’ - the stripped-back album Bob Dylan made during his isolation following a motorbike accident. (Both of them leaving the crazy, heady madness of 1960s fame) etc.
I saw this before. It made me love Paul more and more.
That's Paul McCartney in the now and we are lucky to have artist in the past to remind us what a true artist is, was, will be or was! Let us live and let live!
amazing to hear him as honest... Thank you for your shared words ... Let's share this with friends and family so it will last forever 💜...
Its a miracle that one person could write so many great and unforgettable tunes.
Yes, and even more amazing that they are still being played all around the world 60 years later. I don't think I go a week without playing a few Beatle songs.

@@skygazer6898 I saw Paul at Hyde Park a few years later when he come on during a Neil Young concert it was great surprise.
He's legendary. There should be a greater term created for how great he is!
"Something will happen." Love it. I've always said, "This too shall pass." Just a reminder to keep on keeping on in life.
Thanks for this. Paul is not only a talented legend, but a nice, down to earth guy. Not everyone may agree, but it can’t be easy being Sir Paul. Just like it wasn’t easy for Cary Grant to live up to being Cary Grant…
He's just terrific and down to earth.
No amount of praise and credit for you and everything you have ever done in music. Is never going to be too generous. You have said and done it all in music one way or another. You and your music will always be liked and loved forever by me and the world. Very well done and thank you Paul.

Paul…just an amazing human being 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Paul is STILL INCREDIBLY MODEST. The way he came on there and played the piano. Amazing.
Of course he is, he's just a Beatle!!
He has great self-awareness.
Next to family , John ,Paul , George and Ringo gave me more joy and happiness than anyone.
That’s Mozart of the 20th century
Definitely won't be anyone else that will ever top Sir Paul.
I’d say the Mozart of Pop
You must be joking! Mediocre shite, from everything is all about me Paul Mccartney.
Dylan is.

This interview warms my heart.
Spotted Noel Gallagher among the attendees.. looking at his hero. Melody geniuses
Arguably the greatest melody maker of all time.
No doubt about it
Very arguably. I put Ray Davies considerably higher than Paul.
@@LaughingStock_ ray is very very good but not even close to mccartney. Not consistent enough. Dont get me wrong i do love the kinks.
@@LaughingStock_ Ray's best stuff is amazing but nowhere near the volume created by McCartney.
@@stevenprocter9815 agreed. Ray Davies is great. But I’d put McCartney quite a bit higher. I doubt his work in the Beatles will ever be surpassed.
Great interview of a wonderfully talented man. So gifted. I adore him.

Thank you Paul and BB.

Best music, we are very fortunate to have this in our lives. Thanks to you and Paul for posting this.

I read about the Beatles split and as an 11 year old with a creative imagination my first thought on hearing Starting Over was that it was a love song to Paul McCartney. As I’ve grown and written some of my own songs my belief in that has been cemented even more. Of course it may have been about many other things but as Paul says he would not have necessarily said he loved John directly unless drunk or in a song.
Anyway what do the thoughts of an 11 year old matter?
If only they had been together like the early days, who knows what could have emerged.
He. Is the man
McCartney should be doing masterclass on writing music
Still grounded, all the Beatles are amazing
Paul is a Saint !!!
Paul your right I pick up my guitar and play chords but I don't write, I remember. I've always stared at Beatles,the pictures,the albums especially at Paul. I think you are why I love the Beatles. The love Is like a brother you am sorry.
very interesting that paul revealed the truth about music being a vehicle too open up about inner feelings , I believe that why the creator gave us simple beings this media
Yes, that was the real highlight here and where he was at his most candid.
I have this all the way up, even on my Logitech sound enhancer and can still barely hear it. What a shame!!
Thank you. Glad it’s not just me!
Billy!
Yes, Billy Shepherd. Faul.
❤❤❤❤❤
I would be great if mere mortals could have that opportunity
Why is the sound so bad? I have it up to full volume in CZcams and on my iMac and it's still hard to hear well.
😍😍😘😘🥰🥰
Really interesting interview. Thanks for posting. Does anyone know the model guitar Paul was playing? It looks like a Martin D16. ~ Mark
Maybe i's my computer here, but I find this clip's volume too low.
I had to play it through an amplified speaker. And it was still low.
@@mattcarroll5603 i turned my amplifier up a little. No problem.
My husband always felt that Paul reminded him of his uncle. Interesting.
Is that Glen Tillbrook at around 40 min behind the speaker?
Thank you very much for doing this!
(But please don't do subtitles unless you can check they're right)
I wish they asked him can you release carnival of light!
I was a Wings fan. Only got to like the Beatles later in life
He was absolutely right about Alan Klein.
The others realised too late.
Agree!
Great respect, Great Man ! Music wise I prefer Pink Floyd
When Pink Floyd were first recording in Abbey Rd, The Beatles also were recording. Paul would wander to other studios to see what was happening. He heard Pink Floyd, then had a good talk with them giving advice.
I always wonder if Paul’s approach to his first solo album was influenced by ‘John Wesley Harding’ - the stripped-back album Bob Dylan made during his isolation following a motorbike accident. (Both of them leaving the crazy, heady madness of 1960s fame) etc.
Check out the REO Brothers's channel, they do a great job covering the Beatles tunes.
quite a few celebs there in the audience
"I found Linda..." and lost Jane. "I don't want to give too much away..." writes many songs about Jane for better or worse.
"Scotty"!! Simon Pegg
Do you have any info as when this was filmed ?
