Nah. "Looky over yonder--comin' down that railroad track" is better. Or "If you don't love it, leave it,--let this message that I'm singin' be a warnin. When you're runnin' down our country you're walkin' on the fightin' side of me". That's a good one to teach your children. How about the entire song "The Battle Hymn of the Republic"? Have a nice day.
I don’t know. Harry Chapin (Cat’s in the Cradle), James Taylor (Fire and Rain), Kenny Rogers (The Gambler), CSN (Teach Your Children), and Buffalo Springfield (For What It’s Worth) all have phenomenal lyrics too. Just to name a few songs that also carry potent advice.
I love how proud Paul looks and so he should be, the master songsmith. I also love how he always shows respect to his fellow artists. Great job by Steven
The 1st generation not to dress like a small version of their parents when they left school . The best time to be young and alive , the hair , clothes and music just reflected that change . The air crackled with the optimism we held for the future . I'm ages with you and wish I'd croaked about 10-20 years ago , it's so sad and life sapping to see what it's become .
@@laurencesmith2199 that was a powerful response you wrote. I agree in a way. I think all that is happening in this country and the world and I think why it could not of come after I left this planet.
STEVEN TYLER can take a classic...written,performed, & made into a hit by the legendary PAUL McCartney.. and breathe new life into it. ST is now a legend himself!!
1:53 imagine being that guitarist, finally you get the opportunity to play one of, if not the best beatles guitar solos of all time in front of Sir Macca himself, only to be barely audible in the mix. He looks so excited while doing it too.
MrRude333 I thought it was rude of him to even think it’s a ballad that Paul wrote with a lot of emotion, That’s what I think I would hold my breath too
I'd hold my breath for an awful rendition. Out of all the musicians in the world, Tyler's the best they could do? It wasn't for me. Look up 'Goodnight Saigon' by Garth Brooks when he honored Billy Joel, now that was a proper tribute.
lmao you're completely making this up, I don't see him holding his breath or anything. Looks like he's thinking "interesting take on that song, he does XX differently"
Not even top ten anymore. They were a pop group from 1963 ...they long since ceased to be relevant to nowadays and....they are seldom played in reality.
I grew up listening to the Beatles and I’m 58. I remember playing their singles on our turntable, throwing them on, I was probably a bit less careful than I should be, but I played when my sisters were at school and my mom often slept in, LOL… So I had a great time listening to music!!! 😂😂😂 What a great band they were and still is, we’re so lucky to at least have their records to enjoy now!!! ❤❤❤
@@ggabriel3d exactly... as a singer i heard him NOT have his voice yet.. and then screamed it out and voila!!!.. nice crazy good voice for the rest of the song!!.. easy!!.. haha..
Whenever I feel I need a lift, I watch this video from Steven Tyler's part over and over again, just love it. You can feel the emotion he has for Paul in his performance for sure!
you can tell You can tell from his face at 0:38 that this song MEANT so much to him............as it has done so for so many of us 50 years on !!!!!!!!!!
What's so douchey about it? If you like good music, then chances are the Beatles are inspiring. Conscious awareness of one's self isn't going to change that.
To have written this and know people started music because of you, they love you, their entire lives have been shaped to you and used your music as a soundtrack...the feat of four men who soared to fame on a nighttime talk show. The Beatles will never die ❤️
It's like when you remember something so big that you feeñ all the nostalgia you can get in one second. I'm 27, never really listened to the Beatles. Yes, I arrived thanks to the Peter Jackson Documentary. I'm still trying to figure out how legendary is the band.
The exhale of a man looking back at his life and saying "yeah, I contributed something of worth to the world." (and that's a massive understatement!). And yes, Steven was superb.
@@billboggs6641 If I was Nancy, I'd be pissed off that Oprah was sitting next to my husband instead of me. How does that woman always seem to make herself a part of everything?? I find her insufferable!!
So lovely the way Paul's wife Nancy embraced him from behind to offer emotional support! Sniffle, sniffle. So happy for both of them that they found love again.
There was pure, raw emotion coming out of S. Tyler as he delivered this to Sir Paul and the world. He hit it out of the park and everyone, including the inductee knew it.
Went to IU in the late 80s when we was a huge part of the Mellencamp band…then he even crushed it more with his stint with the BoDeans Check out the live You Don’t Get Much video
Wow, better listen to Dream On right now! lol One of the greatest rock ballads ever and vintage Tyler at the height of his powers. Here, one of the greatest performances of it of all time. czcams.com/video/EbKvBT9F0Vo/video.html
Owned the vinyl lp. One of the greatest album sides of all time. The flip side wasn't so shabby either. Thanks for the timeless tunes, Paul. They've meant a lot to us over the decades. (Wow. Is that ever an understatement.)
Knowing Steven Tyler only from older Aerosmith songs, I clearly underestimated his singing abilities (no, I do not think he is a bad singer or anything, just that I never heard him sing like this). This is quite different from his renditions of "Crazy", "Walk this Way" etc. and I can totally understand Sir Pauls reaction. Great work here by Tyler, who clearly enjoys singing this classic.
Such an excellent salute to Paul. It was wonderful. The only people that could have played it any better would have been the Beatles themselves. If only John and George were still alive, how different might things be? I do not look forward to the day we lose another one of them. Luckily, their music is eternal and will span the vast corridors of time like that of other great artists from our history.
I was 6 when the Beatles performed for the first time on Ed Sullivan. My life became so exciting from then on because of them and how they influenced other musicians. No one sou dedicated like them at that time. Such a great time to grow up along with rock and roll.
He was best on the middle part but honestly I forgive his weakness on the ballads just for the pure joy he showed in getting to sing this. I always think it's cute when famous people fanboy over other famous people.
...he failed the tone at the very first phrase, that's why he screamed and then smiled (like saying "I got this...!"). Besides the energy liberation, for sure it served him to go to the next phrase with more confidence and strength. He was visibly nervous, which is understandable, as well as a great-to-see moment of humbleness for a super star like him.
did you have a new one someone told me you had grandkids! thanks Steven Tyler and cool be safe in a world of chaos and when the church comes around or celebrations of life for others I will praise be to my family with some differences too. And wait for my husband too getting back for the stuff he has to go though and my ma and family too. Mwah a kiss on the cheek!
once there was a way
YEAH
to get back homeward
+Ken Cox I wish more people would sing like this... with actual emotion.
+Cameron Atkinson with sweet emotion
exactly
+Ken Cox 😀
that YEAH, holy shit balls, so good
'and in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make'- one of the greatest song lyrics of all time.
Nah. "Looky over yonder--comin' down that railroad track" is better. Or "If you don't love it, leave it,--let this message that I'm singin' be a warnin.

@@sharpenflat6002oh,go away!
Not one of, but the greatest
There were times in my life when those lines kept me going.
I don’t know. Harry Chapin (Cat’s in the Cradle), James Taylor (Fire and Rain), Kenny Rogers (The Gambler), CSN (Teach Your Children), and Buffalo Springfield (For What It’s Worth) all have phenomenal lyrics too. Just to name a few songs that also carry potent advice.
Golden Slumbers might be considered one of the greatest song ever if Paul had just doubled its length
I believe he said it’s his favourite song, if you watch when it’s sang it it means a great deal to him
But that's why we rushed out and bought the record
he said multiple times that here there and everywhere is his favorite song
Thank god for Paul Mcartney
Think Paul did A Cool Extended Version Of Golden✨🌛 Slumbers with Other Great✨💜 Rockn Artists!💜 Muses Fabulous🎉 Cheers! 🎉
💜🌟🌝🌟🌛💜
Watching Paul listening and mouthing the words puts a lump in my throat.
indeed.
After all those WERE his words when he wrote and sang the song.
I love how proud Paul looks and so he should be, the master songsmith. I also love how he always shows respect to his fellow artists. Great job by Steven
The exact opposite is that look on the face of obamas boyfriend Mikechelle. He/she looks like it just had a very smelly and very wet fart.
Proud? That is nothing short of desperate hope, the price he paid for his soul would be paid back! Anyone really believe that loser wrote a song?!
. WHAT????
Even tho John was an abject scumbag and hopefully is rotting in hell, Paul was second fiddle in the song writing duo
@@debbie9929 ARE YOU HARD OF HEARING??
You can tell that this brought Paul back in time for a little bit.
Oh yeah
I’m 71 but I love the fact that I grew up listening to the Beatles and the majority of people in that audience didn’t. Money can’t buy that.
Money can't buy me love

STEVEN TYLER can take a classic...written,performed, & made into a hit by the legendary PAUL McCartney.. and breathe new life into it. ST is now a legend himself!!
Have you seen George Michael’s performance of Long and Winding Road for Linda McCartney’s celebration of life/fundraiser? Oh my word. Gorgeous.
Ever classic, cheers 😂😂🍷🎉
Yes! I adore them both!!!!
XOXXOO

GangstaPotatos he was probably shitting himself before the show
This pissed me off
That dude is an ace. He played the solos, they just edited them out. The tv broadcast is awful. They chopped up Stairway to Heaven, too.
That’s Shane Fontayne. Toured with Bruce Springsteen’s “Other Band” in 1992/93 on their world tour. Great guitarist.
It was a condensed version.
Paul is holding his breath not to get too emotional at this performance.....its simply briliant what Steve did
MrRude333 I thought it was rude of him to even think it’s a ballad that Paul wrote with a lot of emotion, That’s what I think I would hold my breath too
Me literally crying right now 😭😭
I'd hold my breath for an awful rendition. Out of all the musicians in the world, Tyler's the best they could do? It wasn't for me.

The Beatles = the greatest that has ever been and ever will be

True. Along with the Bee Gees ♡♡
Leeds.. gross..

Not even top ten anymore. They were a pop group from 1963 ...they long since ceased to be relevant to nowadays and....they are seldom played in reality.
Beyond stunning. If you don’t feel this one in your bones, you don’t exist.
!!!!!
I'm 75 and this song brings me memories of the late 1960s.
Me, too..will be 75 this year...! ✌️❤️🌴
i'm 42 and i'm immediately transported back to my freshman dorm room and discovering the b-side of Abbey Road ... life changing
Wow lucky you to experience one of the best eras in music
❤ Steven Tyler in my opinion did an excellent job with this song love it
Paul looks like a music teacher watching his choir do a great performance
I grew up listening to the Beatles and I’m 58. I remember playing their singles on our turntable, throwing them on, I was probably a bit less careful than I should be, but I played when my sisters were at school and my mom often slept in, LOL… So I had a great time listening to music!!! 😂😂😂 What a great band they were and still is, we’re so lucky to at least have their records to enjoy now!!! ❤❤❤
Stephen Tyler putting his own touch on the song, but keeping it real. YES!!!!
Doing much better than Paul.
Nobody did it better than The Beatles.
I love it when he screams after "once there was a way..." is like if he coudn't contain his emotion.
well... he really screamed because his voice failed him at the start. 💁🏻♂️ I'd have screamed too. 😅
@@ggabriel3d exactly... as a singer i heard him NOT have his voice yet.. and then screamed it out and voila!!!.. nice crazy good voice for the rest of the song!!.. easy!!.. haha..
That was a warm-up, not a scream
He does this during Aerosmith concerts also.
What a performer Tyler was, easily America's greatest frontman and certainly in contention for the greatest ever, period.
I think he still IS! 🤗💜
😅😅😅. Yeah right. Lay off the drugs "giant Lucad....".
@@sald1639😂
He’s still kickin’
No greater front man than Freddie for me
Such a touching tribute! Tyler killed it! And Paul loved it!
“And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make.” Perhaps the greatest lyric to music message of all time.
Ken, could not agree. It has always been my favorite line, of any song, ever written.
I love Nancy's reaction: "MY HUSBAND WROTE THIS. YOU'RE HIM!"
And in the end, the love you take, is equal to the love you make.
Words to live by .........
I think a better ending would have been ”The love you take is sequel to the love you make.”
And that's why you aren't Paul McCartney.
The most true words said by a rock group
That means I ain't getting any.
Paul's face at minute 0:49 is incredible. Like 'was the lyric like that?'
nah he realised how hard he made it...
Naw, I think that chick behind him is annoying the hell out of him, trying to grab some attention for herself.
@@stuckiverse yes it is
@JON ROBI RAMILO Well then, it's the wife being annoying, ha ha!
@@todosassd1855 the Nancy one? His wife?? Haha

I do, too!!!
Steven Tyler doing beloved Paul McCartney tunes. We're not worthy!
A Paul McCartney masterpiece
Abbey road was released when I was ten. Il remains the biggest musical shock in my life.
Tyler is perfect. Paul’s appreciation of that is all over his face.
He is perfect
you can tell
You can tell from his face at 0:38 that this song MEANT so much to him............as it has done so for so many of us 50 years on !!!!!!!!!!
The Beatles were an inspiration to him when he first started pursuing a musical career
I'm pretty sure they were an inspiration to anyone with taste.
Victor Kong
What a douchey thing to say. Get yourself some self-awareness.
What's so douchey about it? If you like good music, then chances are the Beatles are inspiring. Conscious awareness of one's self isn't going to change that.
@@IAteFire I mean he’s not wrong. U hear Beatles in everyone
To have written this and know people started music because of you, they love you, their entire lives have been shaped to you and used your music as a soundtrack...the feat of four men who soared to fame on a nighttime talk show. The Beatles will never die ❤️
Imagine being there but having started out in hard scrabble post war Liverpool.... the memories in one man's life!
❤❤❤ well said
When they showed Paul at "Golden Slumbers" I lost it... Too many memories of that amazing band
Anyone else in tears watching this?
NO, iT SUCKS WHEN THEY CUT CARRY THAT WEIGHT
Damn straight . . . .
Chills. Steven is so talented! He just killed it! ❤
stevens voice is simply unbelievable
I can’t believe how bad it is. It is unbelievable.?😮
Paul’s exhale at 2:36 tells the whole story. Simply lovely, Steven.

I believe Steven Tyler did a good job of honoring Paul McCartney by his performance! With the choir in the background, it is beautiful!
I just turned 50!:)🥳the Beatles are my most favorite 🥰thanks for sharing this video 😍Steven Tyler did a great job..that was phenomenal ✌️💖🤩
Love how the camera zooms in on Paul and Nancy! ♡

really very good, beautiful intro and melodic ending, I really enjoyed it
I'm not surprised Sir Paul looks moved--imagine how few times he has been in the audience, watching his songs performed live!
This was love elegance and beauty
So lovely the way Paul's wife Nancy embraced him from behind to offer emotional support! Sniffle, sniffle. So happy for both of them that they found love again.
Thanks for the memories....beautifully expressed💓💓💓💓
Steve Tyler is a TOTAL ROCK STAR ❤
of course!!!!!!!!
Never been a big Steven Tyler fan but that was really cool
HW CNA SING ANYTHING BEAUTIFULLY. I LOVE HIS ACOUSTIC SOLOS!
How fortunate were we to live through The Beatles era .... WOW !
One of best KCH performances of all times!
Steven Tyler have hot voice and cool performance!
And I respect Paul and John, George, Ringo made these greatet songs at 47 years ago.
Very nice Steven.
I liked it. I think Paul liked it.
Thank you
PAUL McCartney looks ENTHRALLED! INCREDIBLY NOSTALGIC!
✨Thanks for A fascinating eclectic version ❤Of Golden🌟🌜💛✨ slumbers🌟💛🌙✨🎉^_^🎉✨❤CHEERS!
I was pleasantly surprised..And it was awesome to see Sir Paul enjoy it so!
There was pure, raw emotion coming out of S. Tyler as he delivered this to Sir Paul and the world. He hit it out of the park and everyone, including the inductee knew it.
Kenny Aronoff blows me away every time I hear him on drums. Nice job by Steven Tyler

Who would have thunk Steven Tyler would be able to pull this off? Fantastic.
Paul loved the resonance of that last note. it's so strong.
OMG I've never heard him sing a ballad. Amazing ❤
OH, I HAVE,AND THEY JUST TEAR YOUR HEART OUT!!!!!
Wow, better listen to Dream On right now! lol One of the greatest rock ballads ever and vintage Tyler at the height of his powers. Here, one of the greatest performances of it of all time. czcams.com/video/EbKvBT9F0Vo/video.html

Just Beautiful.

"Uh" - Paul McCartney
More like "woah"
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Damn, I have never seen that. But was terrific, Go Steven
ELEVEN YEARS LATER--STILL WONDERFUL, AS ARE BOTH MUSICIANS!!!!!!!
This Rendition is truly amaying..
Oprah's glance at greatness...says it all
Incredible, can't stop listening this
Golden slumbers,
Fill your eyes
Smiles await you when you rise
Steven is absolutely amazing!!
It got the master's approval listening to see if the version was OK...well done Steve.
didn't see that, just saw a guy blown that all those people would sing his song(s)
I love the ppl singing right along with Steven .Pauls awesome! Steven can mess up any song!
NOPE STEPHEN ELEVATES EACH SONG HE SINGS!
Owned the vinyl lp. One of the greatest album sides of all time. The flip side wasn't so shabby either.

So so so perfect in every way...LOVE this!
Great job of a great song!
Damn! That’s was GREAT!
Genius! This just gave me goosebumps for real ❤❤❤
Amazing job Steven!
Probably my fav. part is Tyler just yelling YEAAAA off mic. near the beginning. you can tell he was totally digging this moment.
Probably a personal life high-point that he got to sing a favorite song in front of its author, one of his heroes.
...he failed the tone at the very first phrase, that's why he screamed and then smiled (like saying "I got this...!").
Besides the energy liberation, for sure it served him to go to the next phrase with more confidence and strength.
He was visibly nervous, which is understandable, as well as a great-to-see moment of humbleness for a super star like him.
1:43 makes me laugh everytime. Dudes just gettin into it lol (as he should be).
It's Bill Irwin! (I think)
@@mattmayhem33 it's Christopher Reeve who played Superman who's now paralysed.
good job.....delightful 😊
ugh I love this song! and this man!
Always Love watching the Kennedy Center Honors. Great performance.
just got all teary & goose bumpy as soon as he started singing...
Golden Slumber touch me
i was far from my family to work abroad for their better future
i miss them a lot!
What can I say? Love my Steven and what an awesome job!!
The best lyrics EVER!
That was fantastic! tyvm 😊
That is a hard song to sing! I give Steven respect for even trying!
the level of awesomeness of this tribute can be only reached by few people in the world
Steven Tyler is one of those
This was so nice to see
MAGNIFICENT!!!!!
Holy cow!!! That was fantastic🎉

This did make me cry, and I don't know why, it just did.
Energy at critical points in the song is crucial. Well fucking done sir.
This is and will always be Paul’s song
