What an outstanding and fitting tribute to a musical genius whose music and compositions will no doubt be around for a very long time. Who doesn't listen to these songs and sing along joyfully?
I love how Paul has said in an interview that The Beatles could have taken a positive or negative path, and that they CHOSE positive. The world sings along joyfully because of it. Kudos to all the talented tributes to him, a job well done!
As a musician, McCartney has always been THE reference in creating a song! He in my opinion is, was and still is the best song writer of all time!!! Even more amazing, he is so down to earth!!!
I am fortunate to be born in the era of the Beatles and grown up with their music. I feel sorry for those who came before and after who missed their joyous genius.
The first time someone did not know who the Beatles were I was convinced that either the world was coming to an end or I was getting old. Glad it was the latter.
I agree 💯! I just want to tell him, and not sound like just "a fan," but as a human being who MADE my teenaged years so wonderful! And continued to do so my whole life ❤️
Paul McCartney knows he is loved worldwide, that's why he still performs in front of sell out crowds. It's amazing how all generations love his music, including very young children. That to me proves greatness and the test of time.
I hear you. Paul was my Beatle but I adored George. What a beautiful soul 💜. John and Yoko too. Ringo was like a happy teddy bear.... adorable. The Beatles got me thru some very tough times, as a victim of child abuse.
@@CheyennefromTaos So sad to hear that. I hope you are Ok. I do understand because me too. 😢❤. Do you have a song that speaks to you the most? John was my Beatle until he died but I was also a George girl all the way at heart. I love Ringo and I love Paul. The 4 were so much a part of my youth.
Ah Sir Paul -- I will never forget that night when I (an 8-year-old American girl) first saw you on the Ed Sullivan Show, and my life, and the lives of us all, changed forever. You have written, sung, and performed the soundtrack of my youth and my life. Thank you. God bless you.
When I was a teen in the 60s in Liverpool my brother brought home the album 'Please Please Me' and we proceeded to play it all day over and over again, my dad who was a bit peeved by now said, " I'll give them 3 months" , we never let him forget it.
Sandy, I'm so glad you got to be there and experience that. I'm younger, so The Beatles have always just been part of the world's wallpaper for me, but I wish I had a time machine so I could go back and see what it was like to have been there at the beginning.
I’m almost deaf with 2 hearing aids and a Beatles Fan since the 60’s. Please add English Captions to The Kennedy Center honor Sir Paul McCartney ASAP. Thank you.
Paul is simply one of the greatest gifts to our World, this World has ever seen AND heard. Thank you Sir Paul for all the amazing sounds and the even more amazing feelings you have brought us all!
I asked my daddy at the age of six for my first album- Meet the Beatles. I'm 63 now and the Beatles and Paul McCartney have been one of the major influences in my life..and still are. They have colored my world, and it is a beautiful color! So thanks, gratitude and love to Sir Paul, to brother Paul, to Beatle Paul!!!!
It actually was “ Something New” and was gleefully given to me by Gram Stella, but was immediately scoffed by by evil wicked twin Clara bell. She was such a bully, but I still love her anyway. I ask myself wy. Do you know anyone like that Katey?
The world has always been complicated...look at history...look at the problems in the 1960's...70's anytime you wish to look at. Nostalgia always creates a rosy tint.
I dare anyone to try and not sing along! Amazing...How much joy and pleasure has this one man brought to so many millions and millions all over the world. Thank you Paul!
You touch my 💓 when I was a kid in 1978 I performed a lip synch performance of Long Tall Sally in Junior high school sadly not as good as that man what a truly inspirational genuis and person

@@johnvan6803 thanks again John for your reply all four men are extremely deserving the band wasn't just Paul it's John Paul George and Ringo their like in my humble opinion will never be seen again
@@davidguthrie3105 No I don't think so either. They were part of a HUGE change in popular music, they were a part of a REVOLUTION if you will and no one has such a huge influence as John, Paul, George, and Ringo. I am proud to have been a Beatlemaniac.
I feel blessed to have grown up during this incredible man’s career!!! There is not even a close second to his music & genius. I am unable to even put into words my admiration for Sir Paul McCartney!!
I can't help but feel that this Honor meant more to him than induction into the Rock Hall of Fame. It's like the United States came together to let Paul know just how much we love and treasure him. We still feel that way Paul...💖
The Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame honors were the most important to him. It was the one he and Linda wanted the most. She had already died when he won but he dedicated the award to her.
I was 9 years old when I heard the Beatles. Saw them on Ed Sullivan, and meet them at their Convention Center Rotunda performance in Las Vegas 1964. I found my life’s vocation.No regrets.
There are no words that can express the importance and the impact of the Beatles and their songs in our lives and in our culture. We are blessed to have lived to hear, see and feel. We love you. Thank you Paul.
@@lynnemayer3628 I was born in Brazil in 1967, I would never have the happiness of attending one of their shows, first because of my young age, then because the Beatles never came to Brazil for a show. The experience you went through must have been as fantastic as it was inexplicable. How was the sound, the audience reaction, what year was this show, which place in Chicago,, what changed in your life after this show? Please describe, as you are a witness of the history.
Growing up in the 60s we never really knew how great our music was. Now looking back on what Paul and all the Beatles did for music We were so luck to hear it the first time around
I'm 64 and we just took this music in like we ate breakfast . It was always around. The soundtrack of my youth. I truly didn't appreciate it at the time.
A fitting tribute for a great man. Could not watch it without choking with emotions. Thank you everyone for putting their heart out on stage for our dear Paul.
When I first played commercially in the folkhouses as one of the members of a folksinging band in the 70s, we always included some Beatles selections to please the customersn who were getting drowsy from listening hard folksongs particularly those who don't dig folksongs. We noticed that their songs could entertain all kinds of customers regardless of age and social status. Therafter, I became serious in their music and along the way, I noticed that George creations lately have more depth and artistic approach with nice melodic lead.,
Evey time I see this tribute to Paul McCartney, I cry. That's how importante Paul and the Beatles are in my life. THANK YOU, SIR PAUL, I HAVE NO WORDS TO EXPRESS MY GRATITUDE. I LOVE YOU FOREVER!!❤❤❤
I grew up loving the Beatles. This was just a reminder of how much their music and Paul McCartney’s music is so universal. Just inspired, well-written, life altering music that crosses borders, genres and people groups! And so much of an influence on so many artists.
Amazing. Grew up with Beatles and they are the band of a lifetime. Great to see all these people simply lost in the music and a feeling of love for everyone. I miss that terribly
out of nowhere the tears just keep coming and how you can instantly see what a bond great music brings....one of the best examples ever of how powerful music is...and Paul must of felt he was either at the gate to heaven or among the clouds in heaven. If that doesn't bring you to your feet, nothing will...just so so beautiful.
...and yet... ...Faul remains rather cold and emotionally stunted throughout this performance, just as he did when he was issued the news that John had been shot and killed.
Me, either. It will be absolutely horrible for the music industry. Paul has given us so much great music all these years. I can't imagine a world without Paul McCartney. It will not be the same at all.
one of the best tributes / honors I've ever seen. and how extremely lucky was I to be born at a time (thanks mom and dad) when the Lennon / Mccartney song writing team's composing frenzy blessed us with unforgetable lyrics , melodies , and memories lasting .... forever .
Grew up with Paul McCartney and the Beatles. My first concert was the Beatles I was 9 yrs old, how great was that? Privileged to be born in a great era for music the 60's, 70s. Great tribute Sir Paul. Rock on
been diving into the Beatles' music again, i'm 56 yrs old, listening to the digitally remastered stuff and now actually listening to, instead of just being a background soundtrack to life. The arrangements, production, musicianship...gaining a whole other level of appreciation for, other than just "liking"
I was 12 years old when the Beatles came to America, so I understand how they changed music. I always know there was a special bond between all of the members of the band, especially between John and Paul. But having just watched the Get Back documentary, it's clearly Paul that's the mastermind of the group and the primary force that propelled them to unmatched greatness. Wonderful to see his greatness being honored by his peers.
That was certainly the case in the time after Epstein died but John was the original driving force for the first half. Had they stayed together I'm guessing George could have given both a run for their money
Let's bring this world back together. Far as I can see, love and great music can do it. Let's wipe away this darkness...let love and music be your world...
He has a pretty good resume, drummer for Nirvana, guitar and vocals for the Foo Fights, regularly trolls Westborough Baptist Church and tells great stories.
Watch his tv show on Paramount Plus called From the Cradle to the Stage. Dave and his Mom go and meet other artists and their Moms. Apparently Dave’s mom wrote a book called that and she spoke with the mothers. Dave Grohl is awesome!!!! His music is good too. You will not regret watching From the Cradle to the Stage.
When I saw Paul sing " All My Loving " on the Ed Sullivan Show, I was a Beatles fan. I love his solo career and his " Wings " career. Thank You Sir Paul . Your music is outstanding. 👍👍👍❤❤❤
To live through the Beatles era was just wonderful. I saved up to purchase each album when they were released. My bedroom wall was covered by pictures I’d cut from magazine and newspapers. This was all before we had a television set and the radio was the way to keep up with their career.
Growing up in the 60's saving my lunch money to buy an album. Fell in love with the Beatles then, and never lost it. Saw Paul in concert 60 years later. It was at the top of my bucket list before I died. The music inspires, comforts, moves my soul...excites and gives me a thrill too! Thank you Paul, I believe you are a genius! Much love and honor to John, George and Ringo too!
I have watched this video several times since it came out and every time it reduces me to tears. As a teenager growing up on Yorkshire England in the 60's these songs and all of The Beatles and "Our Paul's" are an integral part of who I am. I am 70 now. (How did this little Yorkshire boy get here!! There are no thankyou's big enough for what you have brought to my life Sir Paul. Love from Bob Mitchell.
you know your music is timeless when great musicians can take it apart ,put it back together , perform it in their own way and it still comes out great
I come back to this all the time to watch it - love love love Steven Tyler's performance and love Paul's reaction to James Taylor coming out; the power of Mavis Staples and her beauty and the whole touching tribute
I do the same, listen to this Kennedy Center award program over and over. I'm loving these performers sing Sir Paul's song, and his response to the artists singing them!!!
Trying to select a FAVORITE Beatles song, is like trying to select a favorite BREATH you take in your day to day life ...... Each one is at once special, natural, and mostly of all NECESSARY for your very existence!!!
There will never ever be a phenomenon like the Beatles this band changed the entire world for the better I'm so sad today that two of them are gone but definitely not forgotten!!
My 29 y.o. daughter took me for my 67th birthday to the Paul McCartney Get Back Tour concert at Fenway Park in Boston on 6/7/22. The whole crowd was bopping and swaying,singing and dancing like this crowd here.We all sang paul a wee bit early happy birthday and were totally exhausted and totally happy after 6 encores!!! Amazing artist.amazing night!
I saw Paul’s show this year and it was just astounding. I’ll love the Beatles forever. They make me so happy. They’ve brought a lot of joy into my life. My youngest son is 15 and plays Blackbird on guitar for me. It’s just the best.
I thank the heavens that the Beatles came along. I cannot and don’t want to imagine a world without the Beatles. There were the Beatles and then everyone who came after!
13:07 Paul mouthing "Is equal to the love you make", you can feel that these words still resonate with him. They never strayed from their Peace and Love message, they live it and spread it through and through. Lots of love everybody!
I was 13 in 1963 & therefore grew up with the Beatles.We in South Africa had them before the USA & even at that young age we knew that this sound was very special. It is the soundtrack of my life.Thank you so much.I said back then that it would be okay getting old because growing up with the Beatles & living through those times was worth it .
Steven Tyler is another one of those that will stand the test of times. He can take any song and turn it into something amazing. I've seen him go crazy and at the same time can take a serious song and perform it to perfection. A true student of music
off the charts and kinda let's everyone know in the hearts how much the Beattles & McCarty are loved from around the World. Very moving, amazing talent, and just a beautiful tribute...and it makes you sad, but so so alive....and it made my day to hear this!
this made me cry watching Paul McCartney's face while they are playing Let It Be and feeling his feelings and his memory of the dream of his mother coming to him which inspired the song.

Well put 👍
We who are over 60 years old are so lucky to have lived in the time of The Beatles.
I agree with you 100%.. I felt very lucky to live during this time.
I don't trust anyone under the age of 30.
I was born in 1958. The Beatles have been my favorite band, since I first heard there songs on A M radio!
So envy you, guys. Golden age of music, culture and philosophical thought.
I'm 66 and they will always be the best band and music ever made.
These Kennedy Center Honors rarely disappoint. They're always classy and spot on especially for the musical tributes.

Just the best combination of talent, optimism, and musicianship ever. God bless all the performers and especially Paul for his creations !!!
I can’t imagine the world or music in general without Paul. The joy he has brought me is indescribable.
Me too! No words can describe the joy this Band and Sir Paul has done for me over the years.
We would still exist, & do quite well without him.
Ditto. A million times over!

That was certainly the case in the time after Epstein died but John was the original driving force for the first half. Had they stayed together I'm guessing George could have given both a run for their money
Let's bring this world back together. Far as I can see, love and great music can do it. Let's wipe away this darkness...let love and music be your world...
They've been the backdrop to my whole life! There are no words, really. What a remarkable phenomenon!
🤍
Imagine all the memories he has , with each of these songs..etc....
Don’t know a lot about Dave Grohl’s music but every time I run across him on you tube I’m impressed by his talent.
He’s a cool guy. Google his story about prince.
Oh and he always gives props to his mom. :)
He has a pretty good resume, drummer for Nirvana, guitar and vocals for the Foo Fights, regularly trolls Westborough Baptist Church and tells great stories.
@@GRedschoen Well if he trolls Westborough, I’m a fan. Lol
Watch his tv show on Paramount Plus called From the Cradle to the Stage. Dave and his Mom go and meet other artists and their Moms. Apparently Dave’s mom wrote a book called that and she spoke with the mothers. Dave Grohl is awesome!!!! His music is good too. You will not regret watching From the Cradle to the Stage.
When I saw Paul sing " All My Loving " on the Ed Sullivan Show, I was a Beatles fan. I love his solo career and his " Wings " career. Thank You Sir Paul . Your music is outstanding. 👍👍👍❤❤❤
Absolutely superb arrangements, interpretations and performances. A fantastic tribute to Paul's work.
My grandchildren fell in love with the The Beatles,
It's AMAZING!
THE SONG WILL NEVER END...
To live through the Beatles era was just wonderful. I saved up to purchase each album when they were released. My bedroom wall was covered by pictures I’d cut from magazine and newspapers. This was all before we had a television set and the radio was the way to keep up with their career.
This was music that you could understand and listen to. If you had a bad day, find the BEATLES, and listen to them and your day would change.
Growing up in the 60's saving my lunch money to buy an album. Fell in love with the Beatles then, and never lost it. Saw Paul in concert 60 years later. It was at the top of my bucket list before I died. The music inspires, comforts, moves my soul...excites and gives me a thrill too! Thank you Paul, I believe you are a genius! Much love and honor to John, George and Ringo too!
I have watched this video several times since it came out and every time it reduces me to tears. As a teenager growing up on Yorkshire England in the 60's these songs and all of The Beatles and "Our Paul's" are an integral part of who I am. I am 70 now. (How did this little Yorkshire boy get here!! There are no thankyou's big enough for what you have brought to my life Sir Paul. Love from Bob Mitchell.
Paul McCartney you have stood the test of time the music today make a stand for always being yourself and rock on baby
It is literally impossible to erase his music from the planet. That blows my mind.
A simple music can make you sing, a simple hug can make you feel better, hope my simple hello will put a beautiful smile on your face
you know your music is timeless when great musicians can take it apart ,put it back together , perform it in their own way and it still comes out great
Hi! Today es august 19th 2021 just found this video and reading your message, absolutely agree with you. My best regards 🙋🏻♂️
Melody. Different singers can work their magic.
Steven Tyler did the utmost grace to Mr Paul McCartney. Fantastic and awesome respect.
Mr. Tyler has Always been a CLASS act
I come back to this all the time to watch it - love love love Steven Tyler's performance and love Paul's reaction to James Taylor coming out; the power of Mavis Staples and her beauty and the whole touching tribute
Mavis Staples was singing the Blues when they were still Teal. For her to push Steven Tyler to the middle says so much about who she is.
I do the same, listen to this Kennedy Center award program over and over. I'm loving these performers sing Sir Paul's song, and his response to the artists singing them!!!
Trying to select a FAVORITE Beatles song, is like trying to select a favorite BREATH you take in your day to day life ...... Each one is at once special, natural, and mostly of all NECESSARY for your very existence!!!
This whole performance is simply amazing. Yes I used that word right. I also love Steven's scatting at the end during Hey Jude!
If you listen closely, him and Mavis both were!!!
The Legend that will always be immortal through his music, one of a kind and never will there be another. He deserved this and more, Congrats :)
You say ‘there will never be another’ and yet the individual they chose to honor has been an imposter posing as Paul for over fifty years on now.
@@vahnscott6019 Yes Vahn, everything you say is true. Does that make you feel better?
There will never ever be a phenomenon like the Beatles this band changed the entire world for the better I'm so sad today that two of them are gone but definitely not forgotten!!
@@vahnscott6019 . . . Dickhead! . . . 🌿🦊🌿
@@iainwood1905 Creatively speaking, I think you may have broken the mold here. 🤗
The reaction from Paul and his wife when JT came on was precious...
A founding Apple alumni, such a great singer songwriter and I believe a long time friend of Paul’s James is just pure class.
Why would anyone give thumbs down to Paul McCartney???????
My 29 y.o. daughter took me for my 67th birthday to the Paul McCartney Get Back Tour concert at Fenway Park in Boston on 6/7/22. The whole crowd was bopping and swaying,singing and dancing like this crowd here.We all sang paul a wee bit early happy birthday and were totally exhausted and totally happy after 6 encores!!! Amazing artist.amazing night!
When you own the Music....... you own the World. Never let anyone tell you that one person can't make a difference. Beautiful.
Fabulous interpretations by some of the best artists of great songs.
One of the coolest juxtapositions of cool jazz and hard rock... Norah & Dave... wonderful....
How is it that this is the first time, today, that I ever heard Steven Tyler sing this tribute??? Amazing!
I saw Paul’s show this year and it was just astounding. I’ll love the Beatles forever. They make me so happy. They’ve brought a lot of joy into my life. My youngest son is 15 and plays Blackbird on guitar for me. It’s just the best.
Hello my friend,how are you doing?
I think Paul was gobsmacked to see and hear these musicians pay tribute to one of their own who will survive the ages. Great presentation
I thank the heavens that the Beatles came along. I cannot and don’t want to imagine a world without the Beatles. There were the Beatles and then everyone who came after!
They saved guitar rock.
A world without The Beatles sounds like a great idea for movie
13:07 Paul mouthing "Is equal to the love you make", you can feel that these words still resonate with him. They never strayed from their Peace and Love message, they live it and spread it through and through. Lots of love everybody!
A miracle we are still enjoying...God bless you Paul!
What a great tribute to a great performer!
I was 13 in 1963 & therefore grew up with the Beatles.We in South Africa had them before the USA & even at that young age we knew that this sound was very special.
It is the soundtrack of my life.Thank you so much.I said back then that it would be okay getting old because growing up with the Beatles & living through those times was worth it .
Probably the greatest musician that ever lived, lives and will live on forever!
but only for Pop music
otherwise we have Mozart , Beethoven , Bach and .. and ...
Wow it’s great to be talking to a great album! Fancy meeting you here!
I mean, I adore Paul and his music. But Mozart, for one, wants a word!
I got a shiver up my back watching this.
Steve Tyler is one helluva performer.
Steven Tyler is another one of those that will stand the test of times. He can take any song and turn it into something amazing. I've seen him go crazy and at the same time can take a serious song and perform it to perfection. A true student of music
Music is the greatest of all the arts. It moves, soothes, comforts, inspires, excites, calms, and thrills us
We are blessed to still have Paul and Ringo still with us.
off the charts and kinda let's everyone know in the hearts how much the Beattles & McCarty are loved from around the World. Very moving, amazing talent, and just a beautiful tribute...and it makes you sad, but so so alive....and it made my day to hear this!
this made me cry watching Paul McCartney's face while they are playing Let It Be and feeling his feelings and his memory of the dream of his mother coming to him which inspired the song.
I remember him talking about that in his Carpool Karaoke with James Corden
It wasn't his mother-- it was Mal the roadie ... he changed it to mother mary as Mal the Roadie DIdnt sound as good
The best songwriter of the last 50 years. No one else comes close.
Only when he collaborated with the rest of the Beatles , on his own he was just another average songwriter.
Beatles were and remain the most iconic group in the last century.♥️

You meant 57 or 1956, right?
Paul… I ❤ you forever for the brilliant lyrics and music you gave to the world and for the ❤️you brought to our hearts
