Paul McCartney admits taking LSD (Interview from 1967) Best Quality 

Err, HELLO!! He told the "truth" to a newspaper. That's a NEWS!! paper. The sole job of a ahem!! NEWS paper is to Actually print NEWS!! News papers are not in existence to keep NEWS a secret. Paul was naieve to think a NEWS!! paper would keep that info a secret.

@@wanderer1955 If you’re interviewing the man who just wrote most of the songs on Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, and the best question you can come up with is “did you take LSD?” you’re a terrible interviewer. And he wasn’t expecting them to keep it a secret; he was expecting them to not act like a bunch of children and create some dumb narrative about him being a villain for having taken psychedelics.

@@th3gps223 In those days ( and probably today as well) finding out one of the most famous ppl on the planet is a drug taker was far more interesting than anything on Sgt Pepper. Paul was naive to think they would keep it a secret. He shoulda kept shtum.

@@wanderer1955 Agreed! Lennon said Himself that Paul should NEVER have admitted Publicly to taking that ! John, George and Ringo had taken it Waaaaay before Paul and said nothing!! But thank you Beatles for the Love that you brought to the World through your Music, Ideas, and Life in General!!

@@JamesBond-ml3zp 👍

"Paul"

That's not Paul. This is William Shepherd.

@@NaaHva who

The old Paul or the New Paul?

@@kenrose3464 Shut. The fuck. Up.

Tony Saldana, I agree! I hate when people believe that stupid theory.

@@thewheekly8 yeah Paul Mccartney isnt dead

@@mr.kevinamponsah7410 Or is it?

Well listen to a John and a Yoko interviews. Especially Yoko says “you know” dozens of times. Very annoying.

And it seems he still does this now 🌝

@@davidarmstrong1624 lmao what are you talking about?

@@davidarmstrong1624 bro I was joking lmao, there's a running joke in the beatles fandom about how Paul says y'know a lot and we all love it, that why I said quality content

@@someone9687 I apologise. I'll try and delete my comments and thanks for clearing this up.

for schoolchildren of the USSR in the 70s the guys from Beatles was Gods my father is over 60 years old and for him John Lennon is still an idol

Started in 1967 and finished later.

Nor have they seen other photos of early Paul and compared them to post-1966 Paul. I have TONS of photos that prove it’s the same DAMN genius we’ve been amazed by for 58 years.

Also, can i mention the time where i talked to “Paul” in 1984 in a pub? The guy was the same height as me, i’m 1.88 meters (6’2), meaning that “Paul” magically grew 3 inches? I shook his hand and the encounter lasted for about twenty seconds. I also noticed that his face was full of latex and fillers. He had a filler in each cheek, a latex prosthetic around his temple. The truth lies far beyond what the youth thinks dear. Paul McCartney is dead and is buried in the standing stone on Paul’s farm in Scotland…

So when you say “eye for detail,” it’s pretty clear to me that you don’t know the power of photo reconstruction. Every photo you see of “Paul” is reconstructed. I mean look at every video verses a photo. Different features. One last thing, green verses brown eyes? Pointed nose verses round? Wavy verses straight hair? Voice, mannerisms, style and height.

@@unknown-in9ft hey luv i’m all for conspiracy theories but this is down right deluded. i’ve seen paul up close myself HECK i even work for his daughter every christmas in london. he’s exactly how he was back then. just older. what exactly do u gain from believing this bs

sha What do I gain? I’ve gained knowledge from studying this rumor because i didn’t believe it myself at first. Which daughter of “Paul’s” do you work for?

That Paul McCartney cartoon avatar that you've got is cool!!!

I've uploaded it on the comments section of this upload today January 24,2020. McCartney first made a quote to a reporter at Britain's "Queen" Magazine and then "Life" Magazine, in the United States" printed his admission in an article on June 16,1967. Britain's ITV Television went out to McCartney's home to interview him on June 19,1967, a day after his 25th Birthday. Please look above and scroll to "Read More" and you see my upload.

So how do we find the link? It's not clear.

Because he literally looks the same ad he ever did, he just changed a bit phyiscally, ffs John looks like a completely different person in 1967 than he did in 1964 He lost weight and grew his hair far out, also started wearing his iconic round glasses.

Paul is dead. This is William who had surgeries in Kenya. End of story.

@@NaaHva i suppose the earth is flat too right?

No bloody way the real Paul died in 1966 this Paul is a tool arrogant cocky the real Paul was nice gentle nicer personality obviously they got a intruder with a longer head everyone is so stupid for believing this and the old Paul the old Paul his personality is an absolute tool lol😂 just watch Paul with his round head and personality in the 1964 interview you will know what I mean

Also Mal and Billy did some voodoo hoodoo there@@NaaHva

Lol

Because he's a clown

who?

I'm not so sure that's Billy, looks like another double

he didnt use wigs

william did feel guilty playing a dead man

Not true according to the Memoirs@@skibidi-i2g

memoirs?@@user-fu2mi1nd5l

It’s clearly a different person wtf how do people still believe it’s him

That's steve McDonald. Paul mccartney body double from 1966 to 2002.

@@mirkoamicizia4258 so who is Paul 2002-present?

@@I....l....I it is him wtf

who?

You must be insane if you don’t.

you must be crazy to believe he isn't

Wow, you're SO right!! I'm so happy to finally see Billy the-Walrus Shears in person, my life-long ambition! No, it doesn't sound or look like Paul at all, does it? Good grief April - did YOU take LSD?? Ha, I think so!! Click UP if anyone else does!

And you think his family, for example his parents, would accept another Paul? Don't think so. He grew up, lost weight, used drugs... OFFCOURSE he was a bit different.

@@Flippie123 the initials "LSD" is yet another 'clue' isnt it. Lies, Secrets, Death...

@@Flippie123 : Jane Asher didn't like the new Paul obviously.

What's really striking is to watch the David frost interview from 1964 and then immediately watch this one it really hits you hard the difference in their voices, how they speak, mannerisms. I notice that when Paul speaks his lower lip kinda curls at times when he says certain words like the 2:11 mark if you freeze it and you see that Paul in this interview his mouth doesn't even form words the same.

I can't quite believe how this rumor is still around and believed by many people, including you...

Macca's bird They believe it because they want to. Because it’s a fun thing for them to believe. The truth is too boring for them.

You know, Paul McCartney's physical features do mysteriously look a bit different from the McCartney who accepted the Melody Maker award on September 13,1966 along with Ringo Starr. After that, I noticed Paul began to comb his hair from right to left and didn't possess the full baby face he was had. He now had this elongated thin face. Creepy! He also didn't possess that wholesome personality from past interviews from the past but was now a bit arrogant and seemed bothered and annoyed being interviewed.

Could be fr drugs that he looks too or acts different, aren't yall forgetting lsd can literally change a persons perspective or personificatily. It's rare but could of happen who knows

The Dark Lord You know, the last time Paul McCartney actually resembled himself was at the "Melody Maker Awards" on September 13,1966. If you go onto Google and enter "Elena -The Beatles Pics" you'll see what I mean!!! First of all, McCartney has his hair parted from left to right as was his custom. He also appears like the full faced Paul McCartney we are accustomed to seeing. That McCartney innocence is quite evident. The McCartney being interviewed regarding L.S.D. has his hair parted in reverse - from right to left. McCartney continued parting his hair this way, at least, until the breakup of The Beatles. His face is also thinner and elongated. There's that McCartney innocence that is missing that is evident in the McCartney being interviewed regarding L.S.D. He has a sorta arrogant demeanor. It is quite disturbing! I remember the Autumn of 1969 just after the release of Abbey Road when the rumors began to circulate about McCartney's death and the death clues. I was in my first year at Pacoima Junior High School in Pacoima,CA and we were fascinated with this rumor! There was a Television Special on, I believe, Channel 9 in the Los Angeles area where famed Attorney F. Lee Bailey played the role of a judge and the death clues were presented, by the Disc Jockey that began the controversy, and a verdict, I believe, was rendered but I just don't remember what it was! Mysteriously, this Television Special has never re-aired!!! Lord knows what became of it!!!

"ashamed of himself" calm down fgs. Paul had used LSD, he just didn't bow to The Beatles peer pressure to do it with them and instead used it with his friend Tara Browne. He was also using cocaine heavily during this period, LSD was not the only drug available to The Beatles in the 1967. He wasn't out there pretending to be an expert on LSD or saying he was tripping everyday and new the meaning of life. He was asked and answered honestly that he had used it a couple of times. The only Beatle with the balls to tell the truth, which is really why the others were mad. Because they wouldn't dare but typically Paul just did whatever the hell he liked.

suzy 155 McCartney is all about publicity and promoting himself. John, George and Ringo were responsible men and didn't want to influence their fans into trying LSD! Paul announced HE was no longer going to work with John, George and Ringo in April, 1970 in an insert which was included in his first solo album "McCartney". The headlines, on April 10,1970, read that Paul left the band when it was actually John Lennon who left The Beatles just prior to his appearance at the "Toronto Rock And Roll Revival" concert on September 13,1969! Paul and Apple persuaded Lennon not to make the announcement for the meantime for contractual reasons. John was very bitter with McCartney for double crossing him.

@@raulmacias1311 "double crossing him" lol I don't need a Beatles history lesson thank you, I have read enough about it know the sequence of events. I also know that it was a bitter and messy fall out from which none of them escaped unscathed or with their honour fully intact. When John told The Beatles he wanted a divorce in 1969, Mal Evans confirmed that he had to drive Paul home and that Paul went into his house and cried for hours. This is Paul who is notorious for not showing emotion, he was that devastated by the way things were going. They were all hurting and hurt people make messy decisions. But you are correct, the insert in Paul's album was petty and unnecessary. As was George and John writing a letter to Paul telling him (not asking him) that he had to move the long agreed release date for his solo album and then sending poor Ringo round with the letter. So that he and not they would cop the flack. The other Beatles reneging on their long standing "all of us or none of us" pledge when it came to making decisions for the band, to try and pressure Paul into signing with Klein against his better judgement (and we all know Paul was right about Klein) could also be described as double crossing. As could Paul buying a small number of shares in Northern Songs without telling John. Something that upset John greatly. I don't think for one moment that John ever intended the band to split. He was testing Paul and seeing how far he could push him. But the more he pushed the more Paul dug his feet in over Klein and it all spiralled out of control. One of those awful situations where you act on impulse and emotion and that you replay in your mind over and over for years to come how it got so far and wondering what you could have done differently. I always find this from an interview with John in 1971 illuminating (bearing in mind going to court was the only way to dissolve their partnership) Reporter:I asked Lee Eastman for his view of the split, and what it was that prompted Paul to file suit to dissolve the Beatles' partnership, and he said it was because John asked for a divorce. John: Because I asked for a divorce? That's a childish reason for going into court, isn't it? So he asked for a divorce but was indignant when he was given a divorce. Tells me everything I need to know about how serious John was about leaving. Unfortunately Paul believed him. They loved each other and they hurt each other and in the end lost each other. Stop turning it into a contest.

suzy 155 Paul McCartney's LSD quote initially appeared in "Queen" a United Kingdom - based magazine. The quote was then reprinted by "Life" magazine in their June 16th 1967 feature, "The New Far Out - Beatles: They're grown men now and creating extraordinary musical sounds by Thomas Thompson." Quote by Paul McCartney ~ "After I took it (LSD), it opened my eyes. We only use one - tenth of our brain. Just think what we could accomplish if we could only tap that hidden part. It would mean a whole new world. If the politicians would take LSD, there wouldn't be anymore war, poverty or famine."

@@raulmacias1311 He does indeed sound like every other pretentious eejit talking about LSD in the 60s.

If he had said "off the record" everyone would have know that the answer was yes. So, what would have been the point in evading the question?

NOMADdaf false

True

Beatles are top 3

No artist has evolved to the degree the beatles did and been successful

what the actual fuck is your problem
