This man is a genius. I love ❤️ this song. Amazing how Sir Paul McCartney never went to any music school or knew how to read music. Self taught and came up with the most romantic songs......❤
Yes one of the best writers in our life time, but his last 2 or 3 LP's are really not my cup of tea. Especially Macca 3. Disappointed that they are leaving 'Suicide" OFF the new "One Hand Clapping" release. I know he's a flaming leftist liberal, but full blown "woke" now? Disgusting. "Suicide" is one of the best numbers from "One Hand Clapping"!!! If they were going to leave a number off, leave "Baby Face" it's a great tune, but he hits the wrong chord during the number and has to correct himself!!:-)
Sat down and learned to play this on the piano pretty easily. Not complicated, sounds just like the original. Then I tried singing along and it sounded like shite... Lol. Very few people can equal Paul's vocals. He's one of the greatest singers ever.
Paul McCartney’s solo work is a whole world you can lose yourself in. It’s so varied and surprising and (often) fabulously weird - it wouldn’t be nearly as fascinating and endearing if it were more studiously consistent. It’s great for those of us who’ve had to endure so much mockery for defending it to finally see the tide turning a bit.
The best rock singer of all time. He has so many voices, all different, all pleasing. They mock this musical genius for all the wrong reasons, and they refuse to consider his body of work, so many great compositions that --- so sorry --- did not get put on the radio, so that makes for a lot of poor judges of this fabulous musician.
@@yakamarezlife Well if we are going play favorites, then I will take Jim Morrison. I guess the fact the Doors music is superb gives Morrison the best of stages on which to perform.
Sir Paul’s work from 73 to 75 was Gold for me. Band on the run and Wings over America were so fun, my neighbors and even people in traffic must have hated me.
There’s no doubt that Paul was the musical/promotional mastermind of the Group. It’s evident given the complex production/arrangements of the latter Beatles albums where Paul was directing the band, as opposed to the earlier ones when John was in charge. Still gotta have all 4 to be The Fab Four, however.
@@lextownes1042 True, but Paul was destined for music stardom with our without the Beatles. Music and performing was in his blood. Being with John and the other two certainly enhanced his talents one hundred fold but as I said, even without them the guy was going to be a star. He was born for it.
Seeing and hearing Paul McCartney screaming like here is still more spectacular than seeing many current singers dancing and hearing them singing. Macca's so powerful and amazing.
Just a voice and a piano is enough for a monster musician-composer-singer like Paul McCartney. This masterpiece shown once again the altitude of his genius. The second part with that crescendo and orchestra arrangements, is marvelous.
I had the white album on cassette growing up, and my copy didnt have "Martha My Dear" on it, and I just never ended up hearing the song. Just didnt know it existed. 20 years of fandom later, what a treasure it was to hear a Beatles song for the first time again, and an absolute masterpiece as well.
@@levothy Lol! I have! But that was different. To me he was acting like a singer like he was acting the other parts. This video he’s just being himself.
The 'Coming Up' music video is just miming to the studio track like any other music video, not like this promotional film where he is genuinely doing the vocals live. I literally can't think of another time where I've seen Paul perform like this either. And holding and taking a drag off a cigarette the entire time. What a BOSS. This is a masterclass performance captured on camera
When Paul is gone, his death will surpass every musician's death I've ever loved in my 52 years of playing guitar and playing in bands. Edward Van Halen is the only one I mourn for now. Who knows maybe I'll die before Paul. I love your music and voice Paul McCartney.
For me, it’ll be Paul and Roger Daltrey. I can tell Roger is getting close to the sunset. I will miss these wonderful men and forever cherish the wonderful works/memories that they gave me.
This song is for me. The most interesting thing Macca has ever made. I don't think even Paul gaves it the credit that the song deserves. Nobody said a thing about this track. The only comment was.. to him, as he refers the song « A piano thing» just that. Why is that special for me? 1º His voice. He sings wilder and almost unrecognizable. The way he spreads his talent in a thrilling crescendo at the end...Top! 2º The piano riff [1:45 - 2:05] just amazing, fresh piano rock for that time. Even now, kick you inside with that power... 3º And when you think..okey! that's the song..now repeat it with a little variation one more and finish it. He creates a brigde [2:06 - 2:24] As I like to name it 'The Edward Scissorhands Magic Bridge' Where does that variation comes from? I've been playing guitar for 17 years and when I was learning and playing the song by ear I flipped in that part..I've never seen this pattern before in any song o_O' Sounds weird, magical the first few times you hear it...but later it becomes essencial. 4º Synthesizers. It's like C'mon! I'm watching 'A Clockwork Orange' or what? I just can't imagine hear this piece in 1973. I wish I could to blow up my mind!! The future is coming!! 5º Clarinets after a guitar solo. Who saw that coming?...amazing mix It's a pitty they didn't sound higher with greater prominence. I like to fantasize imagining John rabid for paul have been able to make a record as good and a song as innovative as this was and it actually is.
Chuck Banjomon when you do it your entire life , it wouldn't be for you. as a musician and composer, it isn't the hardest thing either, its around like 3 chords for the main thing, it sounds complex because of the rhythm and the bassline, but once you've been writing music for a while, it comes pretty easily
i can't stop watching this, especially the part where he's singing only. what i live for is paul's screams. his voice is something beyond this world. he makes it seem SO DAMN EASY and it's probably easy for him and that's why he's a genius. oh god i love this man so much
I am so grateful for what this guy gave us all in music, a complete all rounder. Someone says the word music, the first thing that pops into my mind is Paul McCartney. The guy lived and breathed music and I think this video is a great example of that. An inspiration to all. Just sit back a minute and think where we would be if he never walked the earth...what would music be???
Gawd look at him in '74. What a star. He still breaths the music, doesn't he? He admits to producing some 'stinkers' but the bulk of his career is astounding.
I dont know why people didn't think this was brilliant at the time, because its definitely fucking brilliant. Im glad a lot of Pauls solo work is being rehabilitated now.
I really fell in love with this song way back when, even though I wasn't a big Wings fan back then. RAM was a solid album, but I was more fond of John Lennon in the post-Beatles years. Crushed me when John died, but Paul certainly has bounced back, especially in the 21st century. He is a natural performer, and can still write great songs. Glad this gem has been rediscovered, but the Lennon/McCartney catalog is like Cole Porter, Rodgers/Hammerstein, Shakespeare, and Mozart. It'll never go out of style. Beatles are still in the top-10 for most played tunes on whatever platform you choose today. Fifty years after they split up. Nuff said.
I dont think Paul knows how good he is, he comes across in interviews as he is trying to prove himself - we dont need more proof Paul 😊 you are a genius
I blasted this song on my boom box outdoors at midnight in San Pedro, California when some high school friends and I rang in the New Year in 1985. This song always sounded a bit apocalyptic to me (the melody is haunting), and I thought, "Wow, we made it to 1985." We all graduated high school later that year and went our separate ways to college. I adore this song, but I always feel a twinge of sadness whenever I hear it.
That is something he did that some singers with an extreme vocal range didn't do. I think it is because he is just a genius composer. He rarely used his whole vocal range in one song. Very rarely. He suited his range to the song that he wrote. So it wasn't flashy or show-off-y. While I love Freddie Mercury, he made his range obvious by writing songs with ranges that flew all over the octaves. Paul's taste was to use one or two octaves per song, but he could sing almost four octaves overall. Amazing talent.
An exception to this is "Don't Let it Get You Down.' Goes from low range to high range in that song, very effectively. But it suited the music he wrote for it.
Paul wrote this song and incorporated an orchestra to make it better because it was not about him. This is a keyboard version. If you look at the orchestra version he had 3 drummers and a horn section when he put it together. Brilliant mind behind music.
If you are talking about the album version Mccartney plays guitar, bass and drums, and he's the only drummer. I sometimes wonder how people can put total crap on the comment section.
That's a wonderful choice of song, I just learned this, a few minutes ago I would be able to play it! I wish you the best of luck with it! You're watching pianojohn113's tutorial? Cause if not, I can strongly recommend it, he's clear as can be!
That's fantastic you just learned it! It's the type of song you can play on repeat and never get tired of it. Thank you so much for the tip, I will look at pianojohn's tutorial and surely be able to play it :) .
Tiff, I just commented that. I just applied for piano lessons and I am 62 years old. I am old enough to remember the Beatles when they came on Ed Sullivan's show. This is one of my favorite songs.
@@leahdoc19 Just go to TH-cam and type in "The Beatles" on the Ed Sullivan Show. It's kind of funny how all of the girls in the audience would be screaming and crying. Crazy!
The arrangement of this song is utterly spectacular... playing that first two minutes unaccompanied (but carrying it brilliantly on piano) is one thing, but bringing the band in on the middle eight break is inspired... and that ending...
He is EXTRAORDINARY just like John said. I think he’s a musical genius. I notice in watching some of his works in progress that he goes into a trancelike state, another place almost and it’s not an act. Look at his eyes.
well said. I don't want to say the music possesses him, but it seems to flow through him from somewhere else. I'm not a religious person but Paul McCartney is surely magical. There is something otherworldly about his gift.
Oh my god I know exactly what you're talking about, I've noticed it so many times too, even watching Get Back, when he was absolutely not stoned whatsoever
If Beethoven were alive today he would likely be amazed by this masterpiece and be sitting, tapping his foot with a big smile on his face. 'Just like us'.
The quintessential Paul Mccartney. People should aspire to expression at this level and keep such a positive take on the whole thing. Words fail me. Love this guy.
Incredibly talented musician. Watching him play that piano - wow. His love & passion for music comes through for sure on this video. Wow just wow. His passion - all day every day. Thank you, Paul, for your love of music & the resulting artistry has made the lives of many more enjoyable. Rock on.
B side treasure I found listening to Band on the run.. when I was 10 yrs old. The first being.. I saw her standing/ a side.. got to get you into my life.
Wow I remember this as a kid the 70s music gives me chill I was only 11 at the time and the stones and Beatles were always on the radio now you hardly hear them
My favorite of his solo work. Although I do like the video where Linda is shooting the album cover that included James Coburn and Christopher Lee. Still great 50 years later.
Macca, proves just what a great performer he is when he really cuts loose on a vocal, as Darryl alludes to, he lives and breaths music. Had the pleasure of seeing him perform in 1990 @ NEC and he didn't disappoint. Heard many Beatles numbers for the first time 'live' in his two and a half hour, high octane performance. Paul never was a side-man. Lennon knew from the off that this man would push him all the way and together, they were simply magical.
This guys talent is beyond words. Fuck man, this all came out of his head. As in, he just happened to think this one up. This is the first time I've seen him sing solo like that with the improvising. Sometimes when I watch him perform, I always wonder who in the world could do that, or has done that, better than him ? Nobody, no how, no way. Not even close. He's a virtuoso. And it seems like he's not even trying. Think about this, if you compare him and his other stuff, to any rock band in the world, he's on a different tangent. Best part, I'm really high. It's great weed music.PJ in Vancouver

So true
That and “Oh Darling”. Vocal masterpieces

@@siroswaldfortitude5346 Sure. Paul has several gems where he gives it his all.

I cant even begin to express how much I love this man. Always my favorite Beatle.
J. B I saw him in 2010 at Hyde park absolutely awesome 2 hour 40 mins
Musically and Vocally, Paul was hands down the best Beatle. The man was a master of his craft and loved it.
was? ...is.*
100% - in You Never Give Me Your Money he has about 4 different vocal styles - all in just one song.

He's one of the greatest songwriters, composers, musicians of all time. That's just a fact.
No. That’s an opinion!
Incredible vocal range Paul had...Pure musical genius!
Yes, he even screams in tune!!
There’s nothing better to me than hearing a song for the first time that’s almost 50 years old. Now this is my fav song. Beautiful.

@@JerryLeeHowell2 That cassette would’ve hurt my soul, “Martha My Dear” is my favorite Beatles song! 😭
He still has his Monkberry Moon Delight voice in this version.During the late 60s and early 70's he's the best singer I've ever heard
Had not heard MMD until recently! He couldn't have sung it much as it's so taxing on the voice!
I think this is the first time I've ever seen Paul singing while actually holding the microphone. Pretty cool.
Take a look at coming up haha
@@levothy Lol! I have! But that was different. To me he was acting like a singer like he was acting the other parts. This video he’s just being himself.

yes, Paul and for me too, Jimmy Page...I just can't even..ugh.
Deep comment. And I agree. As a 26 year old, I dread the day Paul and Dylan pass on. They will be very difficult and important moments in my life.
For me, it’ll be Paul and Roger Daltrey. I can tell Roger is getting close to the sunset. I will miss these wonderful men and forever cherish the wonderful works/memories that they gave me.
His voice was the greatest instrument of all time.
If anyone is unsure of the adoration of Paul McCartney..... Here you go!

One of the most versatile voices I have ever listened to.
From 2:23 it is just raw power.
He's got many voices in him
love the shedding of his voice..one of the best screamers ever....check out monk berry moon delight...amazing he still has a voice left
His voice NOW, is quite poor. But, in concert he is still a true showman
How could Lennon hear that voice & not chose him?
It truly is raw power even to this day with him being past 75 it’s still amazing
Paul is such a brilliant beautiful badass.

He is EXTRAORDINARY just like John said. I think he’s a musical genius. I notice in watching some of his works in progress that he goes into a trancelike state, another place almost and it’s not an act. Look at his eyes.
He was also quite stoned and STILL incredibly amazing Just love this piece A very talented, accomplished musician 😊
well said. I don't want to say the music possesses him, but it seems to flow through him from somewhere else. I'm not a religious person but Paul McCartney is surely magical. There is something otherworldly about his gift.
Oh my god I know exactly what you're talking about, I've noticed it so many times too, even watching Get Back, when he was absolutely not stoned whatsoever
A super talent unlike anything the world has ever seen!
Greatest song writer of the 20th century.
I guess you never heard of Hank Williams, Kris Kristopherson or Sam Cooke to name a few.
@@jamesdavis6036I guess you never heard of opinions
BRILLIANT is the word...and this only in-rehearsal as Paul strips his vocal-chords and nervous system...
If Beethoven were alive today he would likely be amazed by this masterpiece and be sitting, tapping his foot with a big smile on his face. 'Just like us'.
him playing the piano and singing by itself was incredible
The look on his face, priceless. It's like he knows something about something.
The quintessential Paul Mccartney. People should aspire to expression at this level and keep such a positive take on the whole thing. Words fail me. Love this guy.
Incredibly talented musician. Watching him play that piano - wow. His love & passion for music comes through for sure on this video. Wow just wow. His passion - all day every day. Thank you, Paul, for your love of music & the resulting artistry has made the lives of many more enjoyable. Rock on.
Always loved this song
There’s so many things that make Thw Beatles perfect and one is McCartneys voice
ate devoured and overall served, he is a amazing vocalist and this raw performance is absolutely iconic imo!!
Self taught on every instrument, amazing
Man, that's better than the record.
This is a great song, and his voice is a beast here. I hate to admit but I really miss Paul in 70s.
Oh my gosh so much talent. I love Sir Paul McCartney.
B side treasure I found listening to Band on the run.. when I was 10 yrs old. The first being.. I saw her standing/ a side.. got to get you into my life.
Paul is the greatest songwriter of the 20th century (in my opinion).
…Always loved this song. Glad it played on the radio for a short stint so I could learn about it. Love this version, thanks for posting
This should have 73
million views. If he were 25 years old now or something like that, he would get that many views.
I really love the chord progressions in this and you can tell Paul does too!
the best , a monster genius
Wow! Just saw this amazing video for the first time and that just proves that Paul is a genius. THE BEST!!!
IMHO paul was the best talent in the beatles.this is pure brilliance
One of the best raw recordings there is, this is so good to listen to
Paul is really fantastic. I love him forever and ever.
amazing piano skills too. Paul is the great one.
Genius at work 😊
My favorite piece of music EVER!
Wow I remember this as a kid the 70s music gives me chill I was only 11 at the time and the stones and Beatles were always on the radio now you hardly hear them
this song should have been # 1 for the entire year of 1985
They NEVER played it. No air time. Who makes these decisions?
I love that raspy voice! "Shake it don't break it!"
Incredible song - one of Paul's best rockers ever!
Always loved this song. Great video. His stance at the end and then he makes his Band on the Run album cover face . Makes me smile.
My favorite of his solo work. Although I do like the video where Linda is shooting the album cover that included James Coburn and Christopher Lee. Still great 50 years later.
How is this man not the greatest ever?? His success confirms it.
My father was the coolest MfEr ever and he would tell me how much he loved McCartney
Rest in peace Denny. Proud of you my fellow Brummie
Macca, proves just what a great performer he is when he really cuts loose on a vocal, as Darryl alludes to, he lives and breaths music. Had the pleasure of seeing him perform in 1990 @ NEC and he didn't disappoint. Heard many Beatles numbers for the first time 'live' in his two and a half hour, high octane performance. Paul never was a side-man. Lennon knew from the off that this man would push him all the way and together, they were simply magical.
This guys talent is beyond words. Fuck man, this all came out of his head. As in, he just happened to think this one up. This is the first time I've seen him sing solo like that with the improvising. Sometimes when I watch him perform, I always wonder who in the world could do that, or has done that, better than him ? Nobody, no how, no way. Not even close. He's a virtuoso. And it seems like he's not even trying. Think about this, if you compare him and his other stuff, to any rock band in the world, he's on a different tangent. Best part, I'm really high. It's great weed music.PJ in Vancouver
Dude Paul's not human...a talent on a level very few mortals understand
All of the other Beatles had worthy moments in their solo careers -- and a few truly brilliant songs -- but none of them could do this.
Just tracked this down after hearing it on the radio...would never have guessed it was Paul singing wow
