Early Days:
They can't take it from me if they try
I lived through those early days
So many times I had to change the pain to laughter
Just to keep from getting crazed
Dressed in black from head to toe
Two guitars across our backs
We would walk the city roads
Seeking someone who would listen to the music
That we were writing down at home
But they can't take it from me if they try
I lived through those early days
So many times I had to change the pain to laughter
Just to keep from getting crazy
Hair slicked back with Vaseline
Like the pictures on the wall
Of the local record shop
Hearing noises we were destined to remember
We willed the thrill to never stop
May sweet memories of friends from the past
Always come to you, when you look for them
And your inspiration, long may it last
May it come to you, time and time again
Now everybody seems to have their own opinion
Who did this and who did that
But as for me I don't see how they can remember
When they weren't where it was at
And they can't take it from me if they try
I lived through those early days
So many times I had to change the pain to laughter
Just to keep from getting crazed
I lived through those early days
I lived through those early days - Hudba

Beautiful beautiful beautiful. Simply a truly great song. If you should ever venture this way Paul, and whimsically glance at a few of these comments...please accept my heartfelt thanks for this gift.
he made this song for John, so many references from the friendship they have, the funeral of John's mother, the way they meet. just watch The Nowhere Boy, the history of John, how they know each other, his family, its a good film.
I guess he did it also for George, Stu,... But yes, the song is mostly about Him and John Winston Lennon.
50 years later, we in the music industry and the recording studio pros here in LA, are still chasing this guy.
Nice post
Media/West Productions what do you mean?
🤗🤗
What a lovely song! Paul is a treasure and we are so fortunate he continues to write and perform. I love it.
Incredabl
S'il vous plaît....more
One of the best songs ever! Such a beautiful song about the friendship and love between Paul and John. Paul has written a genius tribute to his lost friend.
Every time I hear this, I cannot help to think about Paul and John meeting and the struggles they faced. They persevered and as a result, we were all blessed by their music, then and now! This is just a glimpse as I believe Sir Paul's best days are yet to come!
thank you Boss Macca for the musical inspiration since 66 for me .....love and respect to you
I like how on the first chorus he sang John's part and on the second chorus he sang his harmony.
What a marvellous video and song. Crying my eyes out.
Balling. Absolutely balling. I needed to hear this. We tend to go back in our minds to the circumstances surrounding the breakup of the Fab Four, and the anger between Paul and the others. Age does make us wiser and mellows us. Thank you sweet and talented Paul, and to God for the awesome gift of music to be enjoyed by all!
Oh I hate when people consider only technical aspect of the voice. He may not be so good here from this point of view, but emotions are great and so real, this is how this song sounds best. period!
Jay Awesome Music Yes. His writing will just accommodate his voice in the coming years. He'll lose a lot more top register but will gain stronger lower register and the wisdom of age will be reflected in his voice. He may turn into Frank Sinatra but that's cool - it's still Macca. Sinatra never wrote a song in his life but Paul's got many more still in him.
Beatsman he sings like that because he is probably remembering the past
Beatsman I personally like his voice here, it accommodates the song very well. That’s the thing bout him and the other Beatles, the voices weren’t the best; they were average but everything else around them was so extraordinary and the simplicity in the voice made it so much better.
@@nrffilms1740 well, Paul's voice in the beatles was far from average... Check out Oh! Darling, for example
Lennard Lennard Oh yea, towards the end of the Beatles; all of their voices have improved significantly, especially McCartney. His best singing came in like at 68 and went through all the way too late 70’s early 80’s where it was in it’s prime. If you hear early Beatle tracks you can flaws and to be honest I love it. At concerts, before he does please me he tells the story bout how that was the first song he was signed on to sing and he was super nervous and that you can hear it shake. I absolutely love it. It added character and as time went on you saw them improve even more from a couple of kids to a couple of men.
"May sweet memories of friends from the past always come to you, when you look for them/
And your inspiration, long may it last. May it come to you, time and time again.”
That might be the most beautiful sentiment I’ve ever heard in my life.
I want to cry when I hear that.
And I do.
This is proof of why, in his SEVENTH decade of songwriting, Macca is THE MASTER.
Paul's insight on what he shares with us...Beatle Fans... is truly wonderful. He shows where and who helped to inspire John and him. Thanks.
Love it! I'm crying now. Love you paul, love you john.
This song and the video, too, is all about how it all got started with The Beatles. Teenagers in love with music, getting it together, becoming friends for life. I see it as a great hommage to the days that are never to happen again, those innocent days of early youth. Not only for The Beatles but for everyone of us.
Your music cleared the pathway of love and understanding. Your the best. The south thanks you.
"Early Days", one more fantastic song of Sir Paul McCartney!!!!!!!!
The most free and joyful music America celebrates came from forgotten Black musicians. And that includes the British Invasion, who were ALL inspired by 78's & 45's brought to England on tramp steamers from America. They waited on the docks to hear that incredible sound. And they handed it back to us. I don't want invented instant super stars. Music is Joy is Life. Blessed be the forgotten.
Amen. I remember the 50's. We were SERVED. My landlord tells me he was in the military then, in Okinawa, and they got to listen to WLAC (John R, Horeseman) every night through a long chain of shortwave radio and then ship-to-shore radio. We all had a right to rhythm & blues music and elders stepped in to make sure that we got what we needed. If your child asks for bread, would you give him a stone? If your child asks for rock & roll, would you give him a Pat Boone record? They waited on the docks and we waited outside the record stores on release dates or ordered those 3-band albums (Chuck Berry, Clyde McPhatter, Mickey & Sylvia) from Nashville. Our parents were glad we had good taste. Thanks, Mom.
So glad to still have you around Paul!
Sir Paul McCartney and Brian Wilson, the best composers, ever... Définitivement, Paul McCartney et Brian Wilson sont les meilleurs compositeurs contemporains qui aient jamais existés.
I just saw Paul in Pittsburg and he was amazing---it's not the first time I have seen him. Any person who is 72 is going to sound older, but last Monday night--his voice, energy, and musicianship was excellent. I love this song as I do the New album-he performed several songs from it. I have read many books now about how John and Paul, got together and so yes, they were greatly influenced by American music-and introduced us to some we didn't know. The Beatles and Paul will be going strong for many more years. I have loved him for 50 years and hope to see him perform many more times until he's no longer touring.
Paul McCartney I love you, you're such an inspiration to me! Everything you do is amazing! You will live forever!!
I can't stop watching this video, it's so beautiful and I keep picking up on something new every time. As far as the details go, this is what I came up with: The Paul character is the boy with the hat walking towards the gang of boys with his guitar case. The John character is the boy sitting on top of the lorry with his guitar. They are introduced by the boy with glasses (maybe a composite of Ivan Vaughn/Pete Shotton?). They shake hands and start playing guitar at each other, one right handed, one left handed.
There is no George character here. The boy with glasses and the drummer are the rest of the "band" but I think they are not as important as Boy 1 (John) and Boy 2 (Paul). You notice these two walking around town with guitars, eating ice cream, running through fields, sharing records... John and Paul, you can't miss them! :)
I think the funeral scene is a memory of when Julia died. It was the time when Paul and John bonded even more because now they both had no mothers.
You are amazing Paul...A musical genius There will never be another like you and music will never be forgotten from me to you "Maybe I'm amazed"
The creativity just keeps flowing, stay young Paul, stay young!!
Oh Paul. This video is beautiful. I love the concept, the images, everything about it. The John and Paul characters are so adorable and sweet. Watching their friendship unfold made me cry while listening to the song. You must miss John so much.
Amazing! Paul McCartney. ...God's gift to the world 👍😉
I love Paul McCartney so much, he is a LEGEND. I hope to meet him one day if I'm lucky enough.
Yo lo vi en Quito - Ecuador, lo máximo...!!! I saw him in Quito - Ecuador, the best of the best, thanks Paul for your music and all four from Liverpool...
May sweet memories of friends from the past
Always come to you, when you look for them
And your inspiration, long may it last
May it come to you, time and time again
These are good luck words for me.
Thank you very much, Paul.
Actors:So I'm appearing at a rock and roll video clip , how much are you gonna pay me?
Director:Paul McCartney is on it
Actors:How much do I have to pay?
Best singer of all-time Sir Paul McCartney! Love it!
Beautiful! Thanks Paul. No one can take those memories from you :) We love you all.
wonderful song / video brought tears to my eyes .
PEACE AND LOVE
"Here's a song I wrote about the Beatles! Just when we were growing up, ya know... I'm Paul!"
--Paul McCartney, 2014.
He's Paul!
Gorgeous! Sir Paul You always surprise me, everything you do is great. Your show was the best I've watched in my life. Thank you.
Luv you, Paul! NEW is a special album.
You are very importante in my presente and in my early days. Thank you, Macca.
Best singer of all-time! Long live Sir. Paul McCartney
Great video . Great message.
Songs came from the the heart of God's people struggling and toiling in the daily routine of life. . Lifting their voices up to God and being given the Gift of song.
I see Love......I feel warmth.....I touch lite.... You touch my heart...You see my pain....You set me Free, in my mind...You are in my dreams...You know the way...so come home...to me..
yaay it's about him and John i'm sobbing !!!!
Getting myself sick from crying. x
Yeah. Me too.
God bless you Paul!! My favorite song from the last album, so melancholic and nostalgic, so beautiful... Thanks for existing Paul, hope you come to Argentina someday cause I never saw you!! Take care Sir!
So completely real. Love the man to bits.
I lived through those early days🎶
💓Beatles Forever
Such an emotional song. Makes me think of Paul and John as kids and how much Paul must still miss him.
This is a great short film, and may be more personal to Paul's life than people understand. It seems some people are hung up on Color, but all of our stories on love and lost are universal. It takes a great artist like Paul to help point that out.
I concur!
Very beautiful... thanks Paul!
Hug from Brazil!!!
This video has all the "early days" references. Two boys are introduced by a mutual friend. They both have an instant connection as they play guitars to each other - one right handed, the other left handed. They develop a bond over music, guitars, life. A parent dies, they grieve together. They form a band. The friendship grows. It's about John and Paul. Thank you Paul and everyone who worked to make this video a work of art.
John and Paul with "two guitars across their backs" ... "seeking someone who would listen to the music" that they were writing down at home: how magnificent is it that even 60 years later there are millions who would do anything to listen to them? What a beautiful video, what a wonderful song about friendship, music, emotions, life, this is why I love Paul! :)
This song brought tears to my eyes. Beautiful in words and music. Long may you continue to create, Paul.
my favorite singer/songwriter/composer of all time. even if age has affected his voice, his followers including myself, would still love to hear it. Most successful singer/songwriter of all time by Guinness World Record!
Make music until you can no longer. Thanks for continuing to inspire, Paul.
Perfect song. I love it, and I love the voice of Paul.
Love it Paul! It's kinda combination of Blackbird and Mother's Nature Son. LOVE LOVE LOVE!
I hear All Things Must Pass. The ascending progression is very similar.
Yeah, I heard mother nature's son too.
I heard Plastic Ono, f--- you both.
Big! Bi
Thank you for all, Macca!!!
I am on bus so I can only cry inside but this song...!!!😭😭😭😭😭😭Macca always make sad song with delighting melody, like, always warm you and break your heart at the same time❤️💔❤️💔
Maestro !! This song means so much.
An absolute masterpiece !
Beautiful!! Just beautiful... thank you for your wonderful music over all these years.... You helped me through it.
absolutely phenomenal work from Paul!
long live the kings!
Beautiful, touching and sad song that only another Paul McCartney masterpiece.
Awesome as always, love the falsettos. Keep rockin' Paul !
This song is beautiful. Reminds me off my best and only friend, Lydia. R.I.P. I understand why people don't like this, it's because they don't understand it. Love Paul and his songs. (:
Paul used to say that apart from all the fame, the fighting, the craziness that seemed to follow them later, what he remembers most fondly after all those years were him and John ditching schools, walking home down the street in liverpool, two guitars across their backs, hiding away to write songs and spend time together
Retire? He's lost it? Man, I wish I had a sliver of what he has right now. He can sing and he can write and he can play until the bitter end, as far as I'm concerned. He deserves it. And we are lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky we all had him give us his music. He could have turned another corner and there would have been no "Hey, Jude," no "Yesterday," and no "Early Days." Paul, thanks taking your path and sharing your gift to the world.
Best musician of all time.
P.S. Happy Birthday Ringo! :D
*****
meow
***** Cats? ... ohhh but...of Wich country are you?
I wouldn't say the best musician but more like the best singer/songwriter
Yes, but please, let us not forget, John, George and Ringo. They were the best also.,...
***** i subscribed to u cuz u like the beatles. u go mate
Paul has so much respect for the whole Beatle thing. John, Ringo, and especially George didn't. It's like when they looked back on it, they hated it or something, which is sad. Nice that Paul realizes the magic that they had. When I first heard this song, holy choke up. Great song and the best from the NEW album (which is a good album, btw).
Not true, look up "In Liverpool" by Ringo. It's the same sentiment.
Well Paul is Faulll or whatever...haha.😎
But I believe Ringo too, don´t know much about them, but the basic.. he was the one who keep the friendship with the other three without a big/public controversy.
Especially George didnt? Incorrect. If you haven't, you need to listen When We Was Fab by George. Also watch the Beatles Anthology if you haven't. They don't hate it, not even a little bit.
why put any of them down? you don't know. don 't let your love for one make you forget there were always 4.
Great video.
great song Paul!! thanks for all the great music through the years. Can't wait to hear Egypt Station....
It's great! so beautiful shooting so beautiful song!
Thank you, Paul, for this matter!! I so glad to see it...)
(Russia)
I'm glad Paul McCartney shows he can still make a great album when he puts his mind to it. Not too many people who were thought of as creative are still actually creating. I believe Paul McCartney would be writing songs even if no one was listening any more; I believe he still writes because he has to. Plus, it's a cheap buzz for him...
Too bad we can't travel back in time. the Beatles music makes you want to try, though. Those days are gone except in our memories, which are so precious. One day we will lose Paul and Ringo, so we have to make the best out of the time we have with them. I was 5 yrs old in 1963 when they came and I still remember that moment in history. It will be a tragic day when they're gone. Rodger
rrhone I wish I experienced it😔
Thanks for your music Paul, you are fantastic, I love you so much!!! Kisses from Uruguay.
Pd: Happy Birthday Richard!!!
Paul is sounding his 70+ years now, but still gets it right. The man is a Beatle after all.
I miss his beautiful voice, his music is as good as ever!
Why do you miss it? He's on tour right now.
I think they're implying that Macca's voice is getting on a bit now, but his music is still brilliant.
LOL at peole being in denial about his voice getting older. It's okay to be a fan of someone but you still gotta see what's true and real.
Am I the only one here who notices Lennon glasses all over the video? Especially at the end. A discrete way to remember the fab four. LOVE IT
+Rosen Bar Well, the two leads are John and Paul; Paul is in the hat and John in the newsboy cap. The other (white) boy -- George? Could be Ivan Vaughan as he makes the introductions of John and Paul. I'm honestly note sure about that one though. The death is that of Stuart. The girl is likely Cynthia Lennon.
+Bee V I think the one who died was John's mother Julia? The other two in the band obviously are ringo and george
Could be George and Pete
Always so very proud to have seen the Beatles,and Paul solo...
Never stop creating Paul! Never stop "BEING"! I tend to reminisce in the "DAY" to much. It's a ''NEW" day and you just keep on truckin.........
Another superb mini-movie. Paul and Vincent nailed the sentiment perfectly. Bravo!
I was crying throughout the entire video. we miss you, John..
Belles images en noir et blanc , rien à redire sur le Grand Paul , voix magnifique, jolie balade ...
Very moving, thanks Paul, God Bless both,you and John.
Love John. Love Paul. Love George. Love Ringo....what more can I say? Their music changed my life forever! I love Paul's new song. Early days. Thanks Paul
Mine too. Even saved it, I think. x
Paul McCartney...Maestro of Music
This man makes men weep, for all the right reasons ! Such good lyrics bringing us pastward (my word for looking backwards into our past).
Beautiful song. You're the best Paul
So beautifully done. Thank you.
Thank you Paul.
most meaningful song I've heard in the last few years
best rockstar who ever lived.... love this song so much!
Anyone else notice how one of the kids is playing the guitar left handed like Paul? And then the passing of one of the kids mother? As the song tells the story of John and Paul, so does the video.
Beautiful video, made me nostalgic for Paul and John, friendships built long ago that may not be anymore but we will always have those early days. favorite song on the album. RIP John Lennon ❤️✌️
Bravo!! Another great song & video! Thanks Sir Paul!
Time to get wistful, but still providing hope and inspiration to new generations of bandmates and songwriters. Music is the hope of the world. Thanks Paul.
Beautiful...so amazing!! I cried, it remind me of old friends who are not longer here! Salud Paul, por la amistad de anhos y la buena musica :)
I believe there are many was to interpret this video. what I got from it was toward the end when they all had the glasses on (like john wore) was trying to say there are many amazing musicians out there all like john, they can be any race or colour, and they can all be talented and inspire people. It was about his and john's story and the lyrics always bring me to tears. amazing video once again paul, one of my favourites!!
I' m from Ecuador and four months ago i had the the greatest moment of my life because i was in Quito watching his concert.
I can rest in peace after that....Thanks Sir Paul McCartney
It's perfect. I love you and your great music. You are always in my heart.
Thank you for you, Sir Paul McCartney.
Good luck! 3
I am crying so much
I'm crying, this is beautiful
Sir Paul McCartney, you are the guy, "MAYBE I!M AMAZED"!!!!!
Thank you Paul for yet another great Song
