IN ISOLATION with the wonderful Paul McCartney .. Thank you Paul 🙏❤️ Riffing with him on all sorts .. what a birthday treat 🙏❤️ Watch In Isolation With... here: / channel
I'm glad to know that both Paul and Ringo are still alive and kicking and in good health both mentally and physically. I hope they'll stick around for a while. I know I'll be all bummed out and depressed the day all of the Beatles will be gone. I will feel orphaned.
@@briankennedy1192 “radiosuck,” what a clever pun that presumes to be. I’ll bet that was the Talking Heads original title for the song too. But I wouldn’t want to be presumptuous
I just watched a doc on all the beatles number 1 songs and seeing a young Paul in black and white during his youth from over a half century ago. To see this icon at almost 80 years old still involved and active in music and culture is mind boggling. Not only is Paul a great musician, but he is a great human being. To remain relevant for almost 60 years in this fast paced modern society is truly something to behold. He was a main cog in the British Invasion , and has outlasted stadium classic rock, punk, disco, new wave, hair metal/ 80s pop, grunge, nu metal, gangster rap, 90s boy band /Britney spears era, and now the complete change of the way music is distributed to the public is almost too hard to make sense of. His navigation of all of these changes has been breathtaking to witness. He is a true world treasure
So true-I love how he rattles off all manner of musical styles: from Beck to Massive Attack and to the great James Jameson…even producers like Nigel Goodrich and Rick Rubin. So much respect for artists who champion and welcome younger acts with curiosity and openness. I always thought David Bowie was amazing for that reason as well.
@@sleedeal8010 Yes indeed something we agree on macca the great. .....seeing him a few years ago in full flight was jawdropping.....enough to make a grown man cry....
Paul mentioning how it can be stressful or pressuring to be "P Mac" was an eye opening insight. It's easy to forget he is just a guy with a back catalog of genius. I never thought about the pressure he might feel in all situations to be the genius we all know, even though he might be a bit off that day, or feeling his way through an idea. As musicians we can't be "on" all the time. Going into a new creative situation might be just as nerve-racking for Paul as it is for the person working with him. Due to the praise he gets all day, every day. He might feel he has to live up to a legend that was made for him. Even though he never sanctioned that legend.
This is the best of these videos, because EOB with great sincerity tells Paul how important and loved he is. It's what all his fans feel and think too. It's so important he gets to hear this. And by saying it EOB elevates himself, unlike the other videos where they're trying to act cool and better than Paul. Paul you're loved, and are the Shakespeare of songwriting.
Ed is the like the social kid in the quiet group at school, like if Radiohead had a project, he’d present the whole thing as the rest of them just awkwardly stood around
Paul's such a super-cool-happy-love-thing he teaches humanity how to be on the top of their game. Find what you love and share it. Show up and be nice. Tune yourself and have fun. Enjoy all you can, keep creating, keep saying yes to yourself and grow. Since 1963 Paul has taught me infinite things about music, life, and optimism. Everything is learned. I can’t thank you enough Paul, for being yourself, and following your bliss. Life is the best that way. T H A N K Y OU !
Hello Ed! Beautiful to hear! I am a musician and luthier from Buenos Aires, Argentina. I play in a Radiohead tribute band. We are very fanatical of their music! Greetings from Argentina !
Brilliant Ed is brilliant and maybe the nicest guy in music Paul, what can you say? The Beatles took over the world, the culture, changed music and society and Paul just acts like it was one big laugh 😂
What great, REAL people you all are! Oona is beautiful! "Maybe I'm amazed" at how Paul is still so darn cute at his age. And of course, Ed, you're handsome as ever. I'm glad you both were decidedly un-British at the end. Love is all you need! Thanks for such a lovely video, and happy, happy birthday to you, Ed!
You can really see what his friends are talking about when they say "he's like a young man in an old man's body" and after a while you forget he really isn't a young man, not physically...because he's so forever young in personality & genius.
I watched prince Phillips funeral yesterday and I’m watching this it got me thinking how the Beatles met him and the other royals these people have such longevity and that’s what Paul’s got I feel so lucky to have these people in my life I never tire of listening to Paul’s stories about his life he’s a humble man considering who he is thanks for a wonderful interview 🙏
met Paul once a few years back now on his land in Sussex.....he stopped to say hello....was very approachable indeed....only spent a few minutes with him but it was a real honour to shake his hand....been a beatles fan since i was a kid in the early 70's.....
Nice story. He probably felt more relaxed than, say, London where I think you have to be more wary. I know he uses public transport and is often seen around.
I can't beleive that this hasn't got millions of views. What a fun conversation to evesdrop on. I was 13 when the Beatles came to America. It was "magic music' . As the British would say ~ "Brilliant!"
Fantastic! Love it when Ed gets out of fanboy mode to nerd out on bass influences. Paul’s just a dude who has tried, with “some” success, to figure out this music thing. BTW, the recent Sean Lennon interview of Paul is super also.
Wow!! This is amazing, Ed!! I saw you guys on your first Radiohead tour of Mexico in 1994, when I was 15, and got to talk to Thom backstage afterwards. Such a cool and so down-to-Earth guy, just like you on here!! Thanks for sharing these moments of your life with us. It's very inspiring to watch you and Paul having this call. Happy belated birthday!!!! :)
How great. Paul is so relaxed in this talking to Ed. He's completely out of Q&A or publicity mode and just having a conversation with another musician.
So great to have one of the most brilliant songwriters of the modern era just on a zoom call, and of course the guitarist from one of the coolest bands ever - both such gents. Thank you UK! I've had a similar experience with my mum as Paul describes at 16:55.
What a casual, wonderfull conversation between these two great musicians. Paul is as ever fresh and down to earth as ever, and Ed (along with his daughter) is great as well. I have been an a Paul run lately watching many interviews and trying at home (and with my cover band Suitcase of Grace) to play my bass and sing like him as well.
Radiohead it's just my all time favorite band and of course the Beatles's music have been part of my life in so much occasions and Paul is really something else ❤️ i am glad i had the chance to see radiohead multiple times and Paul in one very emotional and special time.
What a chat, 2 of my heroes, Paul and Ed. just sitting around and having a chat. Brilliant. Both of them are so humble and genuine. I love the way the tracks sound on the reimagined album. Brilliant idea. Does anyone know how the idea came about. Phoebe, Beck, Dominic sound fantastic.
It's great Paul is mentioning "Pet Sounds" here. If there was anyone in the 60s to ever touch The Beatles, it were Brian Wilson and the Beach Boys. In other news: Paul looks like he's trying to grow himself a Jeremy Corbyn beard.
Ever since I first plucked the Vintage 1964 Hofner Beatle Bass there in a used guitar store (Pittsburgh Guitars ) in 1983 when I was 14 years old, I was imeadiatly hooked. Years later I was very lucky to have bought a Rickenbacker 4001C64 McCartney Signature Series Bass. I love both basses very much. They have very different sounds & feels. Sir Paul, you gotta break out the Ricky again. I know it is heavier than the Hofner. Don't you miss playing it? Please take it out on tour when pandemic is over. Would flip everyone out & time trip back to the 1975 Wings era. Loved this interview. Cheered me up. You all are in my prayers. Keep Rocking Paulie & never stop! You are much blessed. The biggest inspiration in my life.
Thanks you both for this lovely opportunity to see and listen to such great guys! I live in Porto Alegre, BRAZIL, a city in which Paul has sung a lot! We all love him! And hey, EOB, when are you coming here ??? 😍😍
How interesting that I’ve recently been relistening to some of my favorite Beatles records. Rubber soul might be my favorite album of theirs, though that’s nearly impossible to nail that down. The aesthetic and overall sound of the album is so good and it’s packed with great tracks. Michelle is up there in my top Beatles song list. I love the Beatles and Radiohead so much, so this is such a treat. Thanks Ed and Paul!
I think I just now watched this for the fifth time. Dear me. This is a kind of magic. And in the spirit of this interview, I recommended it to my daughter (a few years older than Oona). She loved it as well. Well done. Really.
Oh wow, how freaking cool is this!!! Two of my musical heroes just shootin' the shit! So glad I stumbled upon it! And Ed just seems like a super awesome guy! Very real.
@@topologyrob Yes and actually I kind of envy those who collaborate on writing. I write everything myself. It's really kind of lonely. But now I have a keyboard so at least I can write better songs and having fun with that regardless of the restrictions these days. Oh well. "All Things Must Pass" as somebody else once said and these problems will as well and we can get back to things like Open Mic Nights or Karaoke or just taking the chance of getting up in a public place with an acoustic guitar and "Going For It" which at the age of 60 and not having done that I encourage the younger musicians to DO that. What is the worst that can happen? The audience can't take away your birthday! lol
It wasn't after the army that was the changing factor, but after Elvis' loss of his mother that things changed with him. You didn't edge Elvis out. 🎙 His work is golden. 👑 There's more to that Elvis back story. Ah, let them eat cake! Lol. ☮ 💜
