A lot of the songs that Paul wrote in those days were about his wife Linda. He and Linda we're inseparable. He stayed with her through cancer until she passed away. A true love story. ❤️🥰❤️
They never spent one night of their marriage apart. Paul said why would I get married if I didn't want to be with her every night. (Or something like that) They had Pure Love!
@@lylekatz2482 I first hear that album when I was 9 years old, my dad had the original vinyl he purchased when it first came out. My dad got to see them live when he was a young teen. Abby Road and Revolver are my two personal favorites, but I also like Sgt Pepper and Rubber Soul.
This is about his wife. I choke up when I hear this. His deep love for Linda produced this and other brilliant songs. Paul is a gift to us all. He plays all the instruments on this song and the whole album. Utter genius He does sing like this in the Beatles. Both he and John could sing anything you want. Beatles songs with Paul on lead vocals Long Tall Sally Get Back Helter Skelter Kansas City Lady Madonna Oh Darlin
One thing I love about music is it can take on different meanings to the listener. :) I can see them thinking if it as a love song to their children. Bon Jovi’s “Living On a Prayer” helped me through my mother’s battle and ultimate death to cancer… but the song was nothing about that. 😀
Paul sings on the Beatles HARDEST song that they ever made called "Helter Skelter". He really belts it out on that track. It is a must react for a new Beatles fan.
One could argue over the hardest Beatles rock song- While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Hey Bulldog, Revolution, I am the Walrus and I Want You, She's So Heavy are certainly hard rocking songs. And the instrumental 12-Bar Original had a deep and heavy feel with some great guitar jamming.
You guys are so young it's too cute , you got to understand that there has literally been no other band like the Beatles, you guys could just react to Beatles songs for a month and never come across the same sound twice
Yeah. There's the old saying about fame being fleeting .. the Beatles were for a long time the greatest band on the planet Earth .. the band members the most famous clebs on planet Earth .. and these two youngsters ae going .. "Oh .. he sounds good ..." :)
Yup. All 4 members of the band LOVED music, so their songs cover so many genres. At one point in Hamburg they had something like 260 songs down pat to play live.
Full disclosure here, John was my favourite Beatle but this song is a beautiful tribute to the love of his life, Linda. She died way too young of course but their love was so strong. Joe Garza, I totally agree with you...they are very young but I'm surprised they didn't get that he was singing this song to Linda, not his child. I had the pleasure of seeing Paul McCartney 12 yrs ago, outdoor concert, 30,000/40,0000 people or more and when he sang " My love" , you could have heard a pin drop. It was beautiful ❤ one of the best concerts I've seen !
I'm 70 years old, been a Beatles fan since day one, as well the solo songs after they broke up. One of my favorite songs is Oh! Darling !! Paul did such an absolutely great job on it. You heard the grit he has with this song Maybe I'm Amazed, well buckle up buttercups for shear joy when you finally choose Oh! Darling to react to. Please do. Please do.❤️
Helter Skelter! There's a rockin' Beatles song that actually outdoes Revolution for how hard it goes, as least for the Beatles. I would LOVE for you two to react to that one!
This song is about how his wife Linda helped him through the breakup of the Beatles how she got him out of his depression and told him you have talent without the other guys and got him to get on stage again with Wings his group in the 70s
Funny thing about Linda. I always thought she was just riding on the wings (pardon that sad pun) of McCartney but when looked back on her time with Paul, I found she was such a big factor in his life and in the music after the Beatles. Thanks for that lil tidbit. I never knew that. I just thought it was a song dedicated to her and wishy washy but still good. Wings was a great group-loved their music! She was actually a talent in her own way and a big contributor (in my eyes) to Wings. Such a great woman!
Paul McCartney: in my opinion the most talented person ever to sing, to write and to perform. Vocal genius who does what nobody else can with his voice. Range, tone, pitch, style variety is endless, he can make it raspy, growl, scream, Croon, rock it, he can make his voice do what ever is necessary with ease. The most natural vocalist in the world. As a songwriter, any subject is writeable. He can have several melodies in a 2 and a half minute song and maintain relevance and context like few can. Genres he creates as if he has direct contact with omniscient omnipotence. The king of melody. Lyrical genius, melodic genius, all round musician. The man stands head and shoulders above the rest.
Check out Paul’s songs with his band “Wings” - Band On The Run, Jet, his Bond film theme - Live And Let Die and Silly Love Songs. All great tunes and all so different!
When that first picture of Linda McCartney his beloved first wife who passed away , an involuntary tear rolled down my cheek . She was the love of his life . Though bittersweet , a quote occurs to me “It’s better to have loved and lost than never have loved at all “… RIP LINDA whom this song was about . 👍🏴
One of my moments in life: Was at a David Bowie concert in 1973. I was standing in an open area and in walked Paul & Linda McCartney. I stood 5 feet from them, and as others saw them they approached but did just as I did. They stood around them and we watched Bowie together. A feeling I'll never forget. Had to share.
@@Jackson-jd1um It was amazing. That is one time I wish I had a cell phone or camera. My hubby had the camera at the stage taking pics of Bowie. In my opinion, he missed the best part of the concert. lol
Finding Linda, marrying and having his children helped Paul through the trauma of the Beatles ending, and his crazy level of fame. It was love. Check out this song live.
"Maybe I'm Amazed" is a song written by Paul McCartney, that was first released on his 1970 debut solo album. He wrote this beautiful song to his late wife Linda, since he credited her for helping him through those difficult times of his life. Specially, after the break-up of the Beatles. You can hear in this song the passion and the love he felt for his wife, Linda. 👏
Paul was severely depressed when the Beatles broke up. He’d been trying like heck to keep them together. It was the only job he’d ever known. He felt his career was over. He dove into drinking and would barely get out of bed. His wife, Linda, convinced him he could still write songs and continue his career. He formed his next band, Wings, with her, and went on to a super successful career post-Beatles, becoming the most successful recording artist of all time. This song is about how Linda saved him.
Well, I don’t think so. McCartney released this solo album and trumped John Lennon by releasing a single statement about leaving the Beatles. John actually wanted to leave before Paul, and Paul convinced him not to for the moment and then he did this. This ruined their relationship for a long time. You need to cite a source for your statements, because I have never read this in any Beatles biography. This sounds like a McCartney Fan Club version of events.
@@divaofscience I love his solo career. Also, he wrote a ton of the beatles songs too. He lennon and collaborated, but paul actually did write more songs than john. I like like the songs that paul came up with a little more as well. His melodies were insane. Lennon seemed to wrote the more edgy stuff. I love John too, but Paul is my favorite Beatle. "Silly Love Songs" is a great song from Paul's solo career. I love "band on the run", "my love" and "just another day" too.
Great Song by Sir Paul McCartney❤ Paul McCartney wrote this song about his wife Linda, who died of breast cancer in 1998. McCartney never wavered in his love for Linda, and even made her part of his band so she could tour with him. "Maybe I'm Amazed" was written in 1969 just after The Beatles broke up. McCartney credits Linda with helping him get through this difficult time. Solo..check out Jet, Band on the Run
Paul and Linda never spent a night apart by choice. During their entire marriage, they ony spent 11 nights apart--when Paul ended up in jail in Japan after getting caught with marijuana in his luggage.
Sorry guys, this song is about how much he loved his wife, Linda Eastman. She was an amazing celebrity photographer when they met and she was asked to photograph the Beatles, which she really didn't want to do, but her boss told her she had to. The upshot of that was meeting Paul and becoming the keyboard player in his band and his wife.
Paul is the best - check out the Beatles’ song, “Oh Darling” for more amazing Paul vocals. Paul sings lots of lead vocals with the Beatles and sings all the high harmonies. In “Maybe I’m Amazed”, Paul is singing about his wife, Linda, who got him through the Beatles’ break up. Check out Paul’s solo song, “My Love” also written about Linda.
I second this recommendation. Listen to "Oh Darling", "Helter Skelter" and "I've got a feeling" for heavier side of McCartney. For "Oh Darling" he came in to the studio every day for several weeks to get his voice hoarse enough to nail the song the way he wanted it. Helter Skelter is also considered one of the first hard rock songs.
This is a FANTASTIC song but you are missing out if you don't listen to the live version. It is one of the great ICONIC LIVE SONGS! it is the last song in his concert and you can tell his voice is tired but he lets it all hang out! It will blow your mind!

“Oh! Darling” really showcases his vocal range as a Beatle, and solo or with his band ‘Wings’, I recommend “Band On The Run”, “With A Little Luck”, and “Coming Up”, very fun songs.
From "Yesterday" to "Helter Skelter", Pauls voice is profound. He sang this song about his wife too. Their love was epic but she died of cancer, I believe. They had only been married for 30 or close to 30 years. He loved her.
Yes indeed, I am so in love with Sir Paul and have been all my life! I just love love love his music, his voice, his dedication to music, songwriting, and of course his beautiful family, as on display in this touching video... I love No More Lonely Nights, and Take It Away, they are two of my all times faves!💖 Love the pics of little Stella too! She went on to be a very notable Fashion Designer, I have one of her perfumes, it's just as beautiful as she is. 🥰💖
@@tigger7466 The blonde girl in the video is Linda's daughter Heather, from her first marriage. Paul McCartney adopted her. There are also pictures of McCartney's first daughter, Mary, as a baby. Stella wasn't born yet when this song was recorded.
@@reddoxx4754 Awww man, really?! I've always believed this was Stella hehe Still beautiful like her Mom & Dad...thank u @Reddox X for the correction and background on their daughters. Omgosh, I learn something new every. single. day. God bless u.🥰🙏🏽
as i have gotten oler and continued to listen to Beatles/McCartney, I have really appreciated Pauls vocal ability. His tone and range and style are unmatched. One of my favorite songs that has been covered by thousands, but NEVER have matched the beauty of “Yesterday” when Paul sings it, in all it’s simplicity is perfection
A few solo songs from McCartney and Lennon to consider in the future: McCartney - Band On The Run, Live and Let Die. Lennon: Instant Karma, Working Class Hero. Also, yes, the Beatles had some rather explicit songs that they packaged around some great tunes: Why Don't We Do It In The Road and Come Together.
Guys, have a listen to "Helter Skelter", "Long Tall Sally" and "Got To Get You Into My Life". You´ll know the impressive range of McCartney´s voice. You do a great job! Congratulations!
One of my absolute favorite McCartney tunes! "Uncle Albert / Admiral Halsey" from the same album is an unexpectedly great song. Even John Lennon liked it, which says a lot. ;)
Paul has (had) a 4.5-5 octave range and hisvoice is soooo versatile, I'm always amazed! Paul went into a bit of a funk after the breakup, this song is a tribute to his wife and how she pushed him to carry on. He plays all the instruments on the entire album!
At his peak,he could not be beaten vocally. Even now in his twilight years,his writing ability and musicianship is so strong. Mother nature has diminished his voice but he is full to the brim with musicality.
McCartney has perhaps the greatest vocal range in history. Rock, ballad, metal, Country, soul, R&B, funk, disco, showband, hillbilly, skiffle, music hall, house. You name a style, he's more than likely sung it perfectly and effortlessly.
You didn't think Beatles could get down like that? Lol, you just need to listen to more Beatles, especially their later stuff from the white album, Let It Be, and Abbey Road. They had a wide variety of styles. Enjoy!

Let it Be is one of Paul’s masterpieces, doesn’t get any better. John and Paul combine in “A Day in the Life” one of the greatest songs ever composed, with a touch of psychedelics.
"Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire" Only Lennon and McCartney could get away with singing about holes in a northern town! Along with "I am the walruss" , 2 of my favourite Beatles songs
Paul is a freak of nature. He has it all. His voice has a range like no other. Close to a five octave range, and always on pitch. Who else can scream on pitch like this ? AMAZING !
PS---my favorite song by solo George Harrison is "My Sweet Lord". You may want to check out. Each of the Beatles had truly unique solo sounds. So even though it broke people's hearts when the Beatles broke up, it was also a blessing as we were blessed to hear each of them do their own thing in their own way and even more beautiful music to listen too.
What is truly "amaz-ing" is that Paul plays all the instruments on the entire McCartney" (1) album, all of them on every song. He recorded things on separate tracks and then mixed them together, the guy is incredible!
The entire end section of Abbey Road is a must listen- little songs all strung together that cover the spectrum of styles. Also be sure to watch James Corden’s magnificent Carpool Karaoke episode where he drives around Paul’s hometown , Liverpool- with the master himself- Paul- going thru his amazing songs and shocking the hell out of the locals!
I love that Carpool Karaoke so much! I was thinking, how many people can just walk into any pub and start singing 50+ year old songs, and almost every person in that pub will sing along and they all will know the lyrics to every song. Remarkable!
Listen to Paul sing Long Tall Sally when he was in the Beatles - both he and John could both rip it up & sing the most beautiful ballads - just genius ❤
Another early one to check out (not Beatles/McCartney) is The Nile Song from Pink Floyd off of More (1969, so roughly contemporary with Helter Skelter).
There is a story that Paul was playing "Guitar Hero: Beetles Addition" with his grand kids and was losing to the kids. One of the kids teased Paul about it and Paul responded that he may not play the game well, but he wrote all the songs used in the game.
One of the most honest and sincere love songs ever written...absolutely wonderful...actually he's singing to Linda, his wife who died tragically of cancer...
Some great songs have been suggested by other commentors and I’d like to add The Beatles’ “Got to Get You Into My Life,” “Eleanor Rigby,” and “Get Back.” Also, Paul’s solo and Wings’ songs “Listen to What the Man Said,” “Coming Up,” and “My Brave Face," "Ever Present Past."
This was from his 1970 solo album. So glad you love him, too. Keep going because Paul never disappoints. The pics were of his step-daughter, Heather and his little daughter, Mary
I have been following you for a while now. I am a 61 year old Beatles nut. I co-host a podcast about them for over 12 years. I get so emotional every time I see you get so excited over the Beatles, group and solo because that is how I felt as every song and album first came out. Thank you for helping to spread great music. You both rock.
When John invited Paul to join his band in Liverpool back in 1957 one of the things about John found attractive about this kid who was nearly 2 years younger was Paul's ability to do the Little Richard scream. Both young men were huge fans of Little Richard and when Paul pulled that off John was convinced on the spot to add him to the band.
Listen to him sing Blackbird. Such a deep beautiful song. Written about the Civil Rights movement. Beatles REFUSED to play in any segregated stadiums in the South and had it written in their contract. He can STILL belt it out in his 70's. Man is a world treasure.
I don't know if the area was segregated at the time (I imagine it was, being the South in the '60's) but didn't The Beatles play in Alabama or Mississippi in 1966 under threat from the KKK about John's "Jesus" comment? I remember seeing a clip of McCartney from the era saying something to the effect of that they weren't going to let a bunch of idiots in robes and hoods intimidate them into not playing. And I thought, "God bless him." I agree, he's a world treasure, and he gets unduly shit upon by people who don't know their Beatles history!
@@loosilu Lucie, you are correct!! Kudos to you, fellow Beatles fan. I looked it up after I posted (probably should have done it the other way around) and I saw it was in Memphis. I remember seeing video of McCartney saying they weren't going to let the KKK frighten them into not performing.
@@johnr.8275 That was the concert where someone threw a firecracker on stage, and the lads thought someone had shot a gun. They must have been very much on edge.
4 guys from Liverpool that are simply out of this world together, 4 guys from Liverpool who are simply out of this world individually.The world is just so glad they all got together.
Great reaction! McCartney plays all the instruments on this. Also, if you want to hear Beatles songs with similar McCartney vocals, listen to "I'm Down," "Helter Skelter" or "Oh, Darling!"
Bob Dylan said Paul was a song writing machine and the most incredible ballads just seemed to pour out of him. I'm not big on ballads except for Paul's, they are so good and they really move you.
Don’t forget how much he loved Ray Charles or Little Richard - even composed Long Winding Road with RCharles in mind. He plays all instruments here and on whole album.
After the Beatles split up, Paul was scared and depressed, drinking heavily, and barely getting up out of bed. He credits Linda with saving his life, believing in him and seeing him through his depression. This song was about her and his love for his family, and his gratitude to her.
@@SusanJohnston well this song was recorded in abbey road studios and i think the rest of mccartney I was recorded at his home in london pretty sure that record wasn't made in scotland
@@jonasrmb01 saw it on some interview. Paul was saying how he had to go around the house to find the right sound. Maybe he wrote songs there and recorded them elsewhere?
all his money was frozen. He had no funds available for well over a year, and they lived off of Linda's earnings from photography. In Scotland, basically they were living in a building on the lot of a lumber yard. Finally the Beatles as an entity was dissolved, and his funds were available. Hard year, beautiful memories.
Paul wrote this for his lovely Linda while living in a wee old farm in Scotland he was going through a really rough time feeling lost after The Beatles broke up and Linda helped him through it. We all miss lovely Linda. 💔
McCartney had the best, most versatile voice in The Beatles, and he definitely left his mark on songs written by the others, as well. His solo, and Wings careers were also amazing.
History will show him to be one of the greatest composers and musicians of the 20th century. This song and "The Long and Winding Road" are true masterpieces.
Paul had the coolest rock voice ever. He could be the balladeer and the next thing you know he's a rock'n'roll screamer par excellence - sometimes within seconds, in the same song! I wish I could sing like he can. Btw, the song's about his wife Linda.
The love story of Paul and Linda McCartney is legend. He was very devoted to her, and her death was so sad. I agree with someone else who said to listen to "My Love" the studio version.
Every human needs to do a big old Beatles deep dive. They were so good. They are not my favorite band ever, but they are undeniably the greatest rock band ever, until them, and without them, who knows if we ever even would have made it to here, with modern rock and what came after them. Maybe things would be different. Maybe we would be listening to Big Band instead. They were that big of a deal.
You kinda had to be there. Their music in comparison to other artists in the 60's and how they progressed in the 7 or 8 years that the Beatles played together was phenomenal. I get that comparing them to groups that came after can make them seem less than they were but they were the soundtrack to my childhood. Their experimental influence is still talked about by professional musicians.
@Wilt Chamberlain is the GOAT A scifi time travel book concluded that if there had been no slavery in America, there would have been no such thing as rock and roll. I think they were right, and if we truly could change the past we should change that suffering--we wouldn''t know what we were missing in not having rock and roll. What would the world be like without having had that huge tragedy, and not having had that small wonderful change for the better that was the happiness of The Beatles.
No argument here, Paul McCartney has the best voice of all the Beatles. For range for texture it is without question one of the great voices in music of any era.
McCartney uses this voice in The Beatles' Oh! Darlin'. Lennon gets dirt in his voice in Come Together and in Twist and Shout. They all had the ability to sing dirty from the years they played in the seedy district of Hamburg, Germany, before they became famous, and then later when they opened on tour for Little Richard. As you slip down this slippery slope, you begin to understand these guys were incredibly artists and almost every song from Rubber Soul on sounds different from every other song--Give I am the Walrus or Strawberry Fields a try. But don't (I'm warning you) do NOT listen to the second half of Abbey Road. You'll never be the same again.
I never knew who sang a song unless I saw them perform it. Rubber Soul is what led me to the Beatles. Who sang Norwegian Wood? Ir may still be my favorite.
That came out when I was 15. I will never forget it. My parents had a 17 foot travel trailer parked on the street and they let me sleep in it by myself all summer instead of sharing my room with my younger annoying brother. I took my record player out to the trailer, ran an extension cord out to it and played this album to fall asleep to over and over. It would still be playing in the morning when I woke up. Back in those times, if you moved the control arm all the way over, it would keep going back to the beginning of the side of the album that was on the turn table. Memories.
This is a song from McCartney's first solo album. He recorded it largely at his home in a spare room. Not only did he play all the instruments but he also engineered and mixed the album. It's been called the first indie album by many.
The were all amazingly talented! John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo star. I was born in 1961 and grew up with the best music. I love watching your generation listening to classics
He uses a similar voice in the Beatles song "Oh! Darling" so you might want to check that out. But "Maybe I'm Amazed" is probably his best solo song, at least top 5, so it's tough to compete with. Great video!
Paul had no question the biggest Carter as a solo artist (including his band “Wings”). Check out “Band On The Run”, “Silly Love Songs”, “With A Little Luck” all massive numbers one hits. There’s sooooo many Paul McCartney hits.
George did not actually take anything from James Taylor. He thought it sounded so good when it was first finished that he said he must have because that was the album he had been listening to!
Probably the best singer ever. Perfect vocal range, perfect variety of vocal registers and perfect intensity. Paul McCartney is a perfect pack of unattainable creativity and musical instinct.
A lot of the songs that Paul wrote in those days were about his wife Linda. He and Linda we're inseparable. He stayed with her through cancer until she passed away. A true love story. ❤️🥰❤️
They never spent one night of their marriage apart. Paul said why would I get married if I didn't want to be with her every night. (Or something like that)
They had Pure Love!

Yes they had a beautiful love story.
Yes, Linda was the absolute love of his life
@@user-or1ye3iz6d Not true. Her father and brother were entertainment lawyers. Everyone assumed she was part of the Eastman Kodak family

Paul's masterpiece, a hymn to his wife Linda.
His song to Heather is just him destroying a room screaming in absolute rage.

Was an amazing thing to see... His love for Linda..
@@theelvenwtich I hated when he married Heather, he had the perfect love and should have been satisfied
Paul played every instrument in this song himself. Absolutely amazing.

Il talento strabordante di Paul McCartney non è ancora onorato e apprezzato quanto merita..
Absolutely
He wrote it, sang it, played every instrument, produced it, and pretty much took it all end to end.
If there's a lack of talent in the world right now - Paul took it all!
“Oh Darling” by the Beatles really shows Paul’s vocal strength
If you like this voice, "Oh Darling" from the Beatles' Abby Road album will blow you away.
Listen to Sergeant pepper harts club band. Great album
@@lylekatz2482 I first hear that album when I was 9 years old, my dad had the original vinyl he purchased when it first came out. My dad got to see them live when he was a young teen. Abby Road and Revolver are my two personal favorites, but I also like Sgt Pepper and Rubber Soul.

Loved them together beautiful love story, Yes, this song is his gift to her. Rest in love Linda.
One thing I love about music is it can take on different meanings to the listener. :) I can see them thinking if it as a love song to their children. Bon Jovi’s “Living On a Prayer” helped me through my mother’s battle and ultimate death to cancer… but the song was nothing about that. 😀
Paul’s range is incredible.
Listen to John Lennon's first solo album a song like mother he was doing a kind of therapy with Yoko to let it all out
This song was a tribute to his unending love for his wife and children. It makes me cry every time.
Me too...everytime
Everybody should be loved like Paul loved Linda.
Paul sings on the Beatles HARDEST song that they ever made called "Helter Skelter". He really belts it out on that track. It is a must react for a new Beatles fan.
Great call
One could argue over the hardest Beatles rock song- While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Hey Bulldog, Revolution, I am the Walrus and I Want You, She's So Heavy are certainly hard rocking songs. And the instrumental 12-Bar Original had a deep and heavy feel with some great guitar jamming.
Just listen that
Oh Darlin’ too. Paul can sing his nuts off whrn he wants.
Paul on Helter Skelter and Oh Darlin and John on Twist And Shout and I Want You are probably the Beatles hardest vocal songs
When you realize McCartney played EVERY instrument on the entire album, let alone song is truly astounding!
A man who truly loved his wife and wasn’t afraid to say so. A real love song
Him and John lennon
The song is about his daughter, not his wife. Though it truly was a love affair.

Yes, Paul lets it rip with the Beatles, check out "Oh! Darling" and "Helter Skelter"
I'm 70 years old, been a Beatles fan since day one, as well the solo songs after they broke up. One of my favorite songs is Oh! Darling !! Paul did such an absolutely great job on it. You heard the grit he has with this song Maybe I'm Amazed, well buckle up buttercups for shear joy when you finally choose Oh! Darling to react to. Please do. Please do.❤️
Helter Skelter! There's a rockin' Beatles song that actually outdoes Revolution for how hard it goes, as least for the Beatles. I would LOVE for you two to react to that one!
I agree with this comment 100%.
Those two songs display Paul's true talent best.
Kansas City/Hey Hey, I’m Down, Long Tall Sally
You have to listen to his isolated vocals on oh darling!!! So powerful. Xoxo
You should hear him sing “oh Darling “ he takes his voice to the absolute high level.
Or Monkberry Moon Delight!
❤❤❤ everything about this masterpiece !
He was in his late 20s. His voice was still pristine
This song is about how his wife Linda helped him through the breakup of the Beatles how she got him out of his depression and told him you have talent without the other guys and got him to get on stage again with Wings his group in the 70s
Funny thing about Linda. I always thought she was just riding on the wings (pardon that sad pun) of McCartney but when looked back on her time with Paul, I found she was such a big factor in his life and in the music after the Beatles. Thanks for that lil tidbit. I never knew that. I just thought it was a song dedicated to her and wishy washy but still good. Wings was a great group-loved their music! She was actually a talent in her own way and a big contributor (in my eyes) to Wings. Such a great woman!
Yes, absolutely! She brought him out of the terrible depression he experienced by not allowing him to wallow. Incredible love when you reflect on it.
And they were sure it was about his kid -- the video is very deceiving
Paul McCartney: in my opinion the most talented person ever to sing, to write and to perform.
Vocal genius who does what nobody else can with his voice. Range, tone, pitch, style variety is endless, he can make it raspy, growl, scream, Croon, rock it, he can make his voice do what ever is necessary with ease. The most natural vocalist in the world.
As a songwriter, any subject is writeable. He can have several melodies in a 2 and a half minute song and maintain relevance and context like few can. Genres he creates as if he has direct contact with omniscient omnipotence. The king of melody.
Lyrical genius, melodic genius, all round musician. The man stands head and shoulders above the rest.
Amen John just astern
@@garyspillett7103 Lennon was never as talented as Paul. He knew that and it made him very jealous.
@@michaelshultz1590 yes that's about the size of it let's just say that they spurred each other on to greater heights
@@garyspillett7103 Yes. Lennon was better with Paul than he ever was without him.
Absolutely agree with u!
Check out Paul’s songs with his band “Wings” - Band On The Run, Jet, his Bond film theme - Live And Let Die and Silly Love Songs. All great tunes and all so different!
What a great album! Yes! All of them!
Band on the Run for sure!!!
All Greats!!!!!
Soily live
YES TO ALL!! 👆🏻
There is a Beatles song called, “Oh Darling”’, which features Paul and he brings this same kind of style to the song, it’s probably my favorite.
'Oh Darling' is from the album 'Abbey Road' way back in 1969 ... My favourite Beatles album .... Though being honest, they are ALL BRILLIANT ...
As I mentioned elsewhere on this video, check Paul out singing “Long Tall Sally” live with The Beatles. Great stuff.
Yep, perfect suggestion. One of their best for me and well you can see from my avatar that I'm pretty much lunatic about them
@@albertmateo9792 So am I. Beatlemaniac to the end. 😂
I love Oh Darling
When that first picture of Linda McCartney his beloved first wife who passed away , an involuntary tear rolled down my cheek . She was the love of his life . Though bittersweet , a quote occurs to me “It’s better to have loved and lost than never have loved at all “… RIP LINDA whom this song was about .
👍🏴
Paul can sing any type of music. He is incredible
Paul, a man of a thousand voices!
One of my moments in life: Was at a David Bowie concert in 1973. I was standing in an open area and in walked Paul & Linda McCartney. I stood 5 feet from them, and as others saw them they approached but did just as I did. They stood around them and we watched Bowie together. A feeling I'll never forget. Had to share.
That’s amazing!
@@Jackson-jd1um It was amazing. That is one time I wish I had a cell phone or camera. My hubby had the camera at the stage taking pics of Bowie. In my opinion, he missed the best part of the concert. lol
Truly incredible. Im very jealous!
I would have fainted dead away!!! 😆
@@triryche3 it was certainly an other worldly experience. One for the books. 😀
Finding Linda, marrying and having his children helped Paul through the trauma of the Beatles ending, and his crazy level of fame. It was love. Check out this song live.
He was the Beatles basically, John was second rate compared to Paul.
@@MrRondonmon He certainly made more money.
@@MrRondonmon Me-fucking-ow!
Definitely, live version is much better.
"Maybe I'm Amazed" is a song written by Paul McCartney, that was first released on his 1970 debut solo album. He wrote this beautiful song to his late wife Linda, since he credited her for helping him through those difficult times of his life. Specially, after the break-up of the Beatles. You can hear in this song the passion and the love he felt for his wife, Linda. 👏
Paul was severely depressed when the Beatles broke up. He’d been trying like heck to keep them together. It was the only job he’d ever known. He felt his career was over. He dove into drinking and would barely get out of bed. His wife, Linda, convinced him he could still write songs and continue his career. He formed his next band, Wings, with her, and went on to a super successful career post-Beatles, becoming the most successful recording artist of all time. This song is about how Linda saved him.
Love this one, My Love, and Silly Love Songs but there are so many good ones.
Paul broke the damn band up with his bs. And George was so damn good that he had to break free.
Well, I don’t think so. McCartney released this solo album and trumped John Lennon by releasing a single statement about leaving the Beatles. John actually wanted to leave before Paul, and Paul convinced him not to for the moment and then he did this. This ruined their relationship for a long time. You need to cite a source for your statements, because I have never read this in any Beatles biography. This sounds like a McCartney Fan Club version of events.
Chills from reading this!
@@divaofscience I love his solo career. Also, he wrote a ton of the beatles songs too. He lennon and collaborated, but paul actually did write more songs than john. I like like the songs that paul came up with a little more as well. His melodies were insane. Lennon seemed to wrote the more edgy stuff. I love John too, but Paul is my favorite Beatle. "Silly Love Songs" is a great song from Paul's solo career. I love "band on the run", "my love" and "just another day" too.
5 octave range voice, multi instrumentalist and top drawer songwriter. It doesn’t get much better.
Paul McCartney did not have anywhere near a five octave uncle range LMFAO. That literally requires being able to sing in the whistle register.
Great Song by Sir Paul McCartney❤ Paul McCartney wrote this song about his wife Linda, who died of breast cancer in 1998. McCartney never wavered in his love for Linda, and even made her part of his band so she could tour with him. "Maybe I'm Amazed" was written in 1969 just after The Beatles broke up. McCartney credits Linda with helping him get through this difficult time.
Solo..check out Jet, Band on the Run
I just said wo check out Wings - Jet & Band on the Run also! Great minds do think alike...
Live and Let Die too
It was also about his love for his daughter Stella as well.
Paul and Linda never spent a night apart by choice. During their entire marriage, they ony spent 11 nights apart--when Paul ended up in jail in Japan after getting caught with marijuana in his luggage.
I second Band on the Run! Truly epic!
Sorry guys, this song is about how much he loved his wife, Linda Eastman. She was an amazing celebrity photographer when they met and she was asked to photograph the Beatles, which she really didn't want to do, but her boss told her she had to. The upshot of that was meeting Paul and becoming the keyboard player in his band and his wife.
Paul is the best - check out the Beatles’ song, “Oh Darling” for more amazing Paul vocals. Paul sings lots of lead vocals with the Beatles and sings all the high harmonies. In “Maybe I’m Amazed”, Paul is singing about his wife, Linda, who got him through the Beatles’ break up. Check out Paul’s solo song, “My Love” also written about Linda.
Yup. ‘My Love’ is another great one!
I second this recommendation. Listen to "Oh Darling", "Helter Skelter" and "I've got a feeling" for heavier side of McCartney.
For "Oh Darling" he came in to the studio every day for several weeks to get his voice hoarse enough to nail the song the way he wanted it. Helter Skelter is also considered one of the first hard rock songs.
Yes she did
I’m just a Mexican stoner tryna make it out the hood by doing storytimes & reaction videos 💀💀
Check out Paul in " why don't we do it in the road" as well
This is a FANTASTIC song but you are missing out if you don't listen to the live version. It is one of the great ICONIC LIVE SONGS! it is the last song in his concert and you can tell his voice is tired but he lets it all hang out! It will blow your mind!
Wings over America
Yes Wings over America %100 couldn’t agree more
Yes- the live version might be even better. It’s grittier, too
The entire Wings over America concert was Paul at his peak.

I love how Paul sings in the Beatles song Golden Slumbers/Carry That Weight. That song is so good.
this x100,000 the whole B side of Abbey Road is just astounding really
THE best tribute to Linda McCartney ever. A beautiful heartfelt treasure. Just amazing
“Oh! Darling” really showcases his vocal range as a Beatle, and solo or with his band ‘Wings’, I recommend “Band On The Run”, “With A Little Luck”, and “Coming Up”, very fun songs.
Agree....
We're so sorry, Uncle Albert....
I second this. With a little luck, probably my favorite PM song.
Love the way Paul sounds on "I'm Down" Early Beatles rocker which is well worth a listen.
and Call Me Back Again
Paul McCartney has the most amazing voice. His love for Linda is unbelieveable. We all mourned her death.
A day in the life that was about Paul's death , love you two ,ever listen to Lucy in the sky?
From "Yesterday" to "Helter Skelter", Pauls voice is profound. He sang this song about his wife too. Their love was epic but she died of cancer, I believe. They had only been married for 30 or close to 30 years. He loved her.
One would believe all Paul's music after a certain time revolved around his wife Linda.
She did die of breast cancer, and she's the love of his life.
Yes indeed, I am so in love with Sir Paul and have been all my life! I just love love love his music, his voice, his dedication to music, songwriting, and of course his beautiful family, as on display in this touching video... I love No More Lonely Nights, and Take It Away, they are two of my all times faves!💖 Love the pics of little Stella too! She went on to be a very notable Fashion Designer, I have one of her perfumes, it's just as beautiful as she is. 🥰💖
@@tigger7466 The blonde girl in the video is Linda's daughter Heather, from her first marriage. Paul McCartney adopted her. There are also pictures of McCartney's first daughter, Mary, as a baby. Stella wasn't born yet when this song was recorded.
@@reddoxx4754 Awww man, really?! I've always believed this was Stella hehe Still beautiful like her Mom & Dad...thank u @Reddox X for the correction and background on their daughters. Omgosh, I learn something new every. single. day. God bless u.🥰🙏🏽
as i have gotten oler and continued to listen to Beatles/McCartney, I have really appreciated Pauls vocal ability. His tone and range and style are unmatched. One of my favorite songs that has been covered by thousands, but NEVER have matched the beauty of “Yesterday” when Paul sings it, in all it’s simplicity is perfection
A few solo songs from McCartney and Lennon to consider in the future: McCartney - Band On The Run, Live and Let Die. Lennon: Instant Karma, Working Class Hero. Also, yes, the Beatles had some rather explicit songs that they packaged around some great tunes: Why Don't We Do It In The Road and Come Together.
Working Class Hero is awesome. His true feelings about the privileged elite.
Guys, have a listen to "Helter Skelter", "Long Tall Sally" and "Got To Get You Into My Life". You´ll know the impressive range of McCartney´s voice. You do a great job! Congratulations!
And Oh Darling
Do the song. "OH DARLING". U will not regret it .
Monkberry moon delight
Please listen to Oh Darling!!!
I'm Down.
One of my absolute favorite McCartney tunes! "Uncle Albert / Admiral Halsey" from the same album is an unexpectedly great song. Even John Lennon liked it, which says a lot. ;)
I love this song! It is priceless in talent
Love the full orchestra used in "Live and Let die"
Is (Let it be) still strictly The Beatles? Or, did Sir Paul McCartney buy the song.
hands across the water!
@@joshsmith302 I have no idea, but if they loved "Hey Jude" I expect they will also love "Let It Be." Paul on piano!
Paul has (had) a 4.5-5 octave range and hisvoice is soooo versatile, I'm always amazed! Paul went into a bit of a funk after the breakup, this song is a tribute to his wife and how she pushed him to carry on. He plays all the instruments on the entire album!
At his peak,he could not be beaten vocally. Even now in his twilight years,his writing ability and musicianship is so strong. Mother nature has diminished his voice but he is full to the brim with musicality.
A couple of Paul's voice shredding songs when he was with the Beatles are: Oh! Darling and Helter Skelter. Both are amazing in their own right.
OH DARLING by BEATLES is Paul's vocals at its best
Agreed!
That song is a vocal cord destroyer (and a fucking great song).
YES!!! He WAILS on that one!!
DEFINITELY!
McCartney has perhaps the greatest vocal range in history. Rock, ballad, metal, Country, soul, R&B, funk, disco, showband, hillbilly, skiffle, music hall, house. You name a style, he's more than likely sung it perfectly and effortlessly.
You didn't think Beatles could get down like that? Lol, you just need to listen to more Beatles, especially their later stuff from the white album, Let It Be, and Abbey Road. They had a wide variety of styles. Enjoy!

And if you think John Lennon is only about imagine listen to whatever gets you through the night! That’s fabulous
Right? It's not the best idea to think you know any artist/band and their entire sound after just hearing 2-3 songs.
Let it Be is one of Paul’s masterpieces, doesn’t get any better.
John and Paul combine in “A Day in the Life” one of the greatest songs ever composed, with a touch of psychedelics.
If you react to Day in the Life, please please please make sure to let that final note stretch out to eternity lol. So many cut it off early.
"Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire" Only Lennon and McCartney could get away with singing about holes in a northern town! Along with "I am the walruss" , 2 of my favourite Beatles songs
A Day in the Life is a masterpiece, one of my favourites. Their voices were heaven sent.
Paul’s voice has so many tones and styles. Such an incredible talent!
Paul is a freak of nature. He has it all. His voice has a range like no other. Close to a five octave range, and always on pitch. Who else can scream on pitch like this ? AMAZING !
You don't think about Paul's range until you try to sing along note for note , in the same octaves. Then, you give up.
Yes, Paul rocked it with the Beatles! Check out “Back in the USSR,” and especially “Long Tall Sally.” And as a solo act, “1985” is stellar.
He was the only Beatle who could really belt.
PS---my favorite song by solo George Harrison is "My Sweet Lord". You may want to check out. Each of the Beatles had truly unique solo sounds. So even though it broke people's hearts when the Beatles broke up, it was also a blessing as we were blessed to hear each of them do their own thing in their own way and even more beautiful music to listen too.
He and his late wife Linda were soulmates. He never really got over that loss. This is a love song about her..
One of my favorite Paul McCartney songs…especially the live version! 🎶 💯
What is truly "amaz-ing" is that Paul plays all the instruments on the entire McCartney" (1) album, all of them on every song. He recorded things on separate tracks and then mixed them together, the guy is incredible!
There is a lot of musical genius in those Liverpool Lads! 😍🤘🏽🤩
Paul and George were the real geniuses, Lennon was overrated and Ringo was just happy to be there.
The entire end section of Abbey Road is a must listen- little songs all strung together that cover the spectrum of styles. Also be sure to watch James Corden’s magnificent Carpool Karaoke episode where he drives around Paul’s hometown , Liverpool- with the master himself- Paul- going thru his amazing songs and shocking the hell out of the locals!
The only version of Abbey Road online is an alternate take and not the album version. Not the same unless they have the CD.
I love that Carpool Karaoke so much! I was thinking, how many people can just walk into any pub and start singing 50+ year old songs, and almost every person in that pub will sing along and they all will know the lyrics to every song. Remarkable!
Loved the way they passed the beers to the back of the pub!
Listen to Paul sing Long Tall Sally when he was in the Beatles - both he and John could both rip it up & sing the most beautiful ballads - just genius ❤
Listen “Helter Skelter” by The Beatles. Paul McCartney literally invented hard-rock-punk with that song. You’re welcome.
YAAASSSSS!!!!!!
1st Heavy metal song ever.
yep...regardless of what all the sabbath(who I like) fans say...metal was created here
@@michaelfrazia4569 Whatever his fans say Ozzy says otherwise. He is a huge fan and sites them as a major influence.
Another early one to check out (not Beatles/McCartney) is The Nile Song from Pink Floyd off of More (1969, so roughly contemporary with Helter Skelter).
There is a story that Paul was playing "Guitar Hero: Beetles Addition" with his grand kids and was losing to the kids. One of the kids teased Paul about it and Paul responded that he may not play the game well, but he wrote all the songs used in the game.
Excellent! LOL. Hard to get anything up on Paul.
One of the most honest and sincere love songs ever written...absolutely wonderful...actually he's singing to Linda, his wife who died tragically of cancer...
He was the backbone of the Beatles....pushed them to greatness
Check out the soulful vocals of Lennon in the live version of "Don't Let Me Down" from the Beatles '69 rooftop concert.
Yes!!!
Or Come Together.
Instant Karma...
If you want more of Pauls voice, listen to "Oh Darling!" from the Abbey Road album. Love from Sweden!
And Wings
Don’t forget about Helter Skelter!
Some great songs have been suggested by other commentors and I’d like to add The Beatles’ “Got to Get You Into My Life,” “Eleanor Rigby,” and “Get Back.” Also, Paul’s solo and Wings’ songs “Listen to What the Man Said,” “Coming Up,” and “My Brave Face," "Ever Present Past."
I almost forgot The Beatles’ “Lady Madonna.”
You missed at least 150 other Beatles hits - almost all of them different from one another.
Seriously? Do you really expect me to list 150 songs?
Lady Madonna?
Fool on the hill
Im so blessed to be born in 55 and got to hear such great rock n roll growing up
Imagine being a little kid and Paul McCartney becomes your stepdad… what’s more, he loved and raised her as his own.
Sir Paul Mcartney is one of the greatest singers, writers ever.
J N A This was 1970 .. The 70s BABY Not to shabby
This was from his 1970 solo album. So glad you love him, too. Keep going because Paul never disappoints. The pics were of his step-daughter, Heather and his little daughter, Mary
They were pictures of Linda and Mary or Heather I’m not sure which one of the kids but those are pictures of Linda
I have been following you for a while now. I am a 61 year old Beatles nut. I co-host a podcast about them for over 12 years. I get so emotional every time I see you get so excited over the Beatles, group and solo because that is how I felt as every song and album first came out. Thank you for helping to spread great music. You both rock.
When John invited Paul to join his band in Liverpool back in 1957 one of the things about John found attractive about this kid who was nearly 2 years younger was Paul's ability to do the Little Richard scream. Both young men were huge fans of Little Richard and when Paul pulled that off John was convinced on the spot to add him to the band.
The story is he also pointed out that John's guitar was out of tune.
Listen to "Oh Darling" by the Beatles. Paul really reaches his peak with his voice on that one. It'll give you goose bumps.
Listen to him sing Blackbird. Such a deep beautiful song. Written about the Civil Rights movement. Beatles REFUSED to play in any segregated stadiums in the South and had it written in their contract. He can STILL belt it out in his 70's. Man is a world treasure.
Saw him 3-4 years ago. Such a talent. I bought his Ram album in the early 70's from Columbia House records 12 for a buck. Been a huge fan ever since.
I don't know if the area was segregated at the time (I imagine it was, being the South in the '60's) but didn't The Beatles play in Alabama or Mississippi in 1966 under threat from the KKK about John's "Jesus" comment? I remember seeing a clip of McCartney from the era saying something to the effect of that they weren't going to let a bunch of idiots in robes and hoods intimidate them into not playing. And I thought, "God bless him." I agree, he's a world treasure, and he gets unduly shit upon by people who don't know their Beatles history!
@@johnr.8275 The KKK threat was in Memphis, I think.
@@loosilu Lucie, you are correct!! Kudos to you, fellow Beatles fan. I looked it up after I posted (probably should have done it the other way around) and I saw it was in Memphis. I remember seeing video of McCartney saying they weren't going to let the KKK frighten them into not performing.
@@johnr.8275 That was the concert where someone threw a firecracker on stage, and the lads thought someone had shot a gun. They must have been very much on edge.
4 guys from Liverpool that are simply out of this world together, 4 guys from Liverpool who are simply out of this world individually.The world is just so glad they all got together.
Great reaction! McCartney plays all the instruments on this. Also, if you want to hear Beatles songs with similar McCartney vocals, listen to "I'm Down," "Helter Skelter" or "Oh, Darling!"
If you want to hear a good rocking Beatles song listen to back in the ussr
Oh, yeah! Second the motion for HELTER SKELTER!!!
To hear a different level of John Lennon’s voice, listen to “Don’t Let Me Down”.
He was singing about Linda, his wife. He had a great voice. Try Oh, Darling off the Abbey Road album if you wanna hear some crazy vocals.
Bob Dylan said Paul was a song writing machine and the most incredible ballads just seemed to pour out of him. I'm not big on ballads except for Paul's, they are so good and they really move you.
Don’t forget how much he loved Ray Charles or Little Richard - even composed Long Winding Road with RCharles in mind. He plays all instruments here and on whole album.
He's definitely channeling Little Richard here.
Tom Jones said the long and winding road was written for him but he rejected the song
Revolution from the Beatle’s is an amped up song!! Paul has a huge collection of songs as a solo artist.
True!
After the Beatles split up, Paul was scared and depressed, drinking heavily, and barely getting up out of bed. He credits Linda with saving his life, believing in him and seeing him through his depression. This song was about her and his love for his family, and his gratitude to her.
That’s when they moved to Scotland and he played all instruments in different rooms for sounds. Innovative musician all the way.
@@SusanJohnston well this song was recorded in abbey road studios
and i think the rest of mccartney I was recorded at his home in london
pretty sure that record wasn't made in scotland
@@jonasrmb01 saw it on some interview. Paul was saying how he had to go around the house to find the right sound. Maybe he wrote songs there and recorded them elsewhere?
all his money was frozen. He had no funds available for well over a year, and they lived off of Linda's earnings from photography. In Scotland, basically they were living in a building on the lot of a lumber yard. Finally the Beatles as an entity was dissolved, and his funds were available. Hard year, beautiful memories.
Paul wrote this for his lovely Linda while living in a wee old farm in Scotland he was going through a really rough time feeling lost after The Beatles broke up and Linda helped him through it. We all miss lovely Linda. 💔
McCartney had the best, most versatile voice in The Beatles, and he definitely left his mark on songs written by the others, as well. His solo, and Wings careers were also amazing.
History will show him to be one of the greatest composers and musicians of the 20th century. This song and "The Long and Winding Road" are true masterpieces.
Next Song: *Live and Let Die* by Paul McCartney and Wings
Totally! along with Jet, Band on the Run, etc.
Rob squad you like to brag on the 80s,, Well this was the 70s ,So you wanna give us 70s kids some thumbs up For our GREAT music in the 70s as well
Fantastic song!
Paul had the coolest rock voice ever. He could be the balladeer and the next thing you know he's a rock'n'roll screamer par excellence - sometimes within seconds, in the same song! I wish I could sing like he can. Btw, the song's about his wife Linda.
Also do “Can’t Buy Me Love”, “Long Tall Sally” and “Golden Slumbers”. Those are a few of many that demonstrates Paul’s range and power!
The love story of Paul and Linda McCartney is legend. He was very devoted to her, and her death was so sad. I agree with someone else who said to listen to "My Love" the studio version.
Every human needs to do a big old Beatles deep dive. They were so good. They are not my favorite band ever, but they are undeniably the greatest rock band ever, until them, and without them, who knows if we ever even would have made it to here, with modern rock and what came after them. Maybe things would be different. Maybe we would be listening to Big Band instead. They were that big of a deal.
They are not my favorite band either, but they are just a part of history.
@@olanaowen7320 without the Beatles music wouldn’t be the same today.
You kinda had to be there. Their music in comparison to other artists in the 60's and how they progressed in the 7 or 8 years that the Beatles played together was phenomenal. I get that comparing them to groups that came after can make them seem less than they were but they were the soundtrack to my childhood. Their experimental influence is still talked about by professional musicians.
@Wilt Chamberlain is the GOAT A scifi time travel book concluded that if there had been no slavery in America, there would have been no such thing as rock and roll. I think they were right, and if we truly could change the past we should change that suffering--we wouldn''t know what we were missing in not having rock and roll. What would the world be like without having had that huge tragedy, and not having had that small wonderful change for the better that was the happiness of The Beatles.
@@mollyhall2954 ?
Paul played every instrument on that song and 1st album.. amazing
No argument here, Paul McCartney has the best voice of all the Beatles. For range for texture it is without question one of the great voices in music of any era.
AGREE!!!
McCartney uses this voice in The Beatles' Oh! Darlin'. Lennon gets dirt in his voice in Come Together and in Twist and Shout. They all had the ability to sing dirty from the years they played in the seedy district of Hamburg, Germany, before they became famous, and then later when they opened on tour for Little Richard. As you slip down this slippery slope, you begin to understand these guys were incredibly artists and almost every song from Rubber Soul on sounds different from every other song--Give I am the Walrus or Strawberry Fields a try. But don't (I'm warning you) do NOT listen to the second half of Abbey Road. You'll never be the same again.
Don't forget I'm Down......
I never knew who sang a song unless I saw them perform it. Rubber Soul is what led me to the Beatles. Who sang Norwegian Wood? Ir may still be my favorite.
TrutH GT !
@@barbarahouston634 Lennon sang
@@mariannemabie9274 Thanks!
The entire album Band on the run, is a masterpiece.
That came out when I was 15. I will never forget it. My parents had a 17 foot travel trailer parked on the street and they let me sleep in it by myself all summer instead of sharing my room with my younger annoying brother. I took my record player out to the trailer, ran an extension cord out to it and played this album to fall asleep to over and over. It would still be playing in the morning when I woke up. Back in those times, if you moved the control arm all the way over, it would keep going back to the beginning of the side of the album that was on the turn table. Memories.
ram too.
Yes yes yes! "Oh Darling"...gotta listen to it!
This is a song from McCartney's first solo album. He recorded it largely at his home in a spare room. Not only did he play all the instruments but he also engineered and mixed the album. It's been called the first indie album by many.
Oh Darling is Paul’s best vocal ever.
You should add his song "Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey".
Yes
hands across the water!
@@nedeast6845 heads across the sky
You can really hear Paul influence on Sgt Pepper and this song Admiral Halsey. Its such a fun song. "The butter wouldn't melt in the pie!"
I love that song.
The were all amazingly talented! John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo star. I was born in 1961 and grew up with the best music. I love watching your generation listening to classics
Jay n Amber need to seek out the tmes when songs were released, This was not a 60s song this was 1970 solo
He uses a similar voice in the Beatles song "Oh! Darling" so you might want to check that out. But "Maybe I'm Amazed" is probably his best solo song, at least top 5, so it's tough to compete with. Great video!
Also "Why Don't We Do It In the Road". He belts it out on that one. To get him at his raunchiest, check out "Helter Skelter".
Wonderful. Another song that shows Pauls fantastic voice is "The Long and Winding Road", And, "Oh! Darling"
Paul had no question the biggest Carter as a solo artist (including his band “Wings”). Check out “Band On The Run”, “Silly Love Songs”, “With A Little Luck” all massive numbers one hits. There’s sooooo many Paul McCartney hits.
George did not actually take anything from James Taylor. He thought it sounded so good when it was first finished that he said he must have because that was the album he had been listening to!
John Sang Helter Skelter
@@Gentsyetta no, Paul sang Helter Skelter... similar vocals to some of this song.
Live and let die
@@Gentsyetta No, he didn’t. Paul wrote Helter Skelter and most definitely sang lead.
My favorite song at 15 and at 68 still brings tears. Just lovely.
Probably the best singer ever. Perfect vocal range, perfect variety of vocal registers and perfect intensity. Paul McCartney is a perfect pack of unattainable creativity and musical instinct.
