So glad he said “ wife” and not “ then wife “ He had to think about it though. Paul, our generation l💖ve and appreciate Linda.She was truly gifted and a gift too
I always thought Junk is one of his best. It isn't just the song itself but rather the way he sang it that made it amazing. Its one of the songs that I still listen to like old Beatles material; it never gets old.
@@elizabethfonseca922 I don't have a source but neither does the OP so it's just a feeling I get. Paul is not a normal dude. Ever read the story where he tried to be "one of the guys" once in '76 sitting in on a card game, then stormed off a minute later because he lost? I do think Paul has that kid-like innocence Vinny mentioned, but the deception part is that he'll only show that silly kid-like side of himself to the world, never the real ruthless music business side that had new Wings members every week because they were all pissed at some point or another.
I agree...I was born in 74...so my earliest music memories was hearing my dad(a bass player himself) playing all the wings stuff in the mid to late 70s...around Xmas 1980 coming up was on the radio in New York constantly and I loved it...it was like pure ear candy...I went back and discovered the beatles albums(my fave band ) and all the solo Paul stuff...mccartney2 has always been at the top for me...I even love wonderful Xmas time which came from those sessions. Special friend is killer also
Great choice Kate. "I long to know all your secrets" a devastating opening line. Co-written with Nitin Sawhney, and never performed live by Macca. Rheena Bhardwaj makes a huge contribution too - breathtaking combination.
He's very intelligent, and constantly learning new things. I love the way he enjoys sharing. He's an amazing person and I believe loving and humble as well. I love him. I hope to meet him some day...maybe in the next life...the spiritual world *sigh*
I am the American Paul McCartney. I learned everything from watching you. You would be tickled to see how I tapped in to your stream of melody’s. I met you the week of my Dad’s death at 7 years old in February 1964. I said that what I want to do. You had me on the first vocal ‘Close’. I have a catalogue of 80+ songs. I took a 30 year hiatus to raise my family. Last year I unpacked my guitars and started writing again. I was surprised how it all came back and I still have all this music coming out of me. I need to publish with MPL. My music wants to come home. Thank you Paul for saving that 7 year old boy with no dad and all sisters.
Thanks Gissela, you always find so lovely treasures for us, Paul's fans ! There, is a very intimist moment between Him and us, from His home.... and as I'm at home too, alone with my cat on my knees, simply sit front of our Dear Paul and listenning to Him talking about McCartney I & II... So cool !
The rhythm and innocence of the lead solo in that original recording of Maybe I’m Amazed has never been matched by subsequent live performances or covers. It’s not just the notes themselves that matter, but the metering of the sequence of them played into one another. For me it makes or breaks the solo.
Is there an artist alive in any idiom who has done more than this guy? What a gift to mankind. We would not be the same without him. Also, totally charming and he can really tell a story.
forgot to mention that I saw him live in Wichita Kansas, best concert ever...almost like I was dreaming, the whole crowd was in awe and so happy. That's how I remember it. You could just feel the good vibes!
I remember Paul McCartney singing “Yesterday” at Suffolk Downs, East Boston, Mass in 1966, it was August 18. Tickets were $4.50, $5.00 and the better seats were $5.75. That was a lot of money back then for a concert for an 11 year old. My first Beatle Album was Mono and cost $1.99. Bought it at the Arcade Bazaar on Revere Beach. Those were the days when a bunch of kids from Liverpool filled the whole world with their sounds and it always filled a void and made us feel something and think something. Seems long ago but it was really Yesterday.
if he was never remembered for his songs , which of course he always will be , he would definitely be remembered for his INCREDIBLE Bass Work with the Beatles which got more and more complex as they made each new record , he was incredible Macca FOREVER!!!!
One of my favorite and most intimate lo-fi albums is McCartney I. It still sounds amazing. A favorite acoustic sing of mine is Every Night. The way he plays that E7 chord is amazing, and it's one of my favorite songs to play and sing.
I remember McCartney II being released . I was only 9 but absolutely loved it . My older brother was still into punk but this changed his perception of what was happening at the time. New Wave , Funk etc . Still sounds so damn fresh
Love Sir Paul. I always call him an Eternal Teenager. His mind is innovative and energetic. Won't catch him not working or doing anything. Always more to explore in life and music. Musical Genius. 💙💙💙👍😍🌈🎶
Check My Machine sounds like a song Gorillaz would do today maybe. The best song on McCartney 2 is One Of These Days; it wouldn't have sounded out of place on the White Album.
I've always thought the same, Loungejay - that One of These Days would have fit right into the White Album - or if he put more production around it, maybe Revolver - though I suppose there's a introspective vibe to the lyrics that might not have been a match for Revolver-era McCartney. It's one of those seemingly effortless gorgeous melodies he's able to put together --> ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zPizFm-2jo8.html As an aside, I've also thought the studio version of Coming Up was a brilliant pop song that only he'd come up with. So quirky and catchy. I remember when it came out - the live version was the hit song -but the album version was almost bizarre sounding, in the best way. It sounded like a cartoon. I like Lennon's comments on that one: "John Lennon described "Coming Up" as "a good piece of work" and, according to McCartney, it prompted Lennon to return to recording in 1980. Lennon later stated his preference for the studio version over the live version that was released as a single: "I thought that Coming Up was great and I like the freak version that he made in his barn better than that live Glasgow one. If I'd have been with him I would've said 'that's the one' too. And I thought that the record company had a nerve changing it round on him, and I know what they mean, they want to hear the real guy singing, but I like the freaky one." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coming_Up_(song)
Comforting to see Paul talking about those two great albums with III being issued soon,and with us just grappling with John's 40th,shall we say,somber remembrance day.
Dear Paul, will You come to Gissela's page, You should ! Really ! What I love so much, LOVE SO SO MUCH with You Dear Paul is Your own Fidelity, Faithfullness to Paul McCartney, well Your own Fidelity to Yourself.... And You know You have our Love for ever !
