The world needs to get as much info out of Paul while we still have him. He's a living world historic figure.
Good point
Agreed
This is true
Bill's got his story down pat...The Beatle's in joke was that "Anthology" was called "Mythology"
TRUTH
What makes Baldwin such a good interviewer is that he asks a question and then shuts his mouth and lets his subject speak as long as they want. Howard Stern can't do that. He constantly interrupts the subject.
It takes brass balls to sell real estate.
I personally see Baldwin as not wanting to reveal his ignorance on the subject matter by keeping quiet.
@@watogo7664 if yr still a Trumper after 4 years of the most disastrous presidency ever then you really shouldn't be talking about anyone's ignorance except yr own.
Stern is great too, he gets stuff out that other interviewers won't touch.
I agree. I listened to that Howard Stern interview too. I hate it when interviewers don't let their guests breath, so to speak. But this Alec Baldwin interview is great.
Thank you so much for not interrupting him!
Alec is really a great interviewer.
I am grateful for every story they tell with their own voice. Nothing like a Beatles story from a Beatle
That's a beautiful thing to say, brother.
You do know it’s an impression right?
@@Tom-bd2dj impression of whom?
@@Tom-bd2dj What"s an impression?
@@Tom-bd2dj rhymes with depression, which is what I get after hearing this nonsense!
This is the most honest and engaging discussion I’ve heard from Paul and so confirmatory about John’s relationship with Paul and his position in the group. Paul loves John and I’m sure an 80 year old John would love Paul.
John always loved Paul.
@@jacobadams905 Why did you expect something new?
Paul loves John? What interview have you been listening to? Even if I believed the official Beatles narrative, I'd be hard pressed to come up with evidence of love from this interview. Yes, he pretends to really want to say something positive about John, what a great guy he was etc, but then fleshes it out with nothing but counterexamples that leave John Lennon in a dubious light at best. Almost as in the parts of Billy Shear''s memoirs that I've read. - That said, I certainly don't imagine John Lennon was a working class hero, as some tend to see him. The only Beatle that comes across as an honest working class guy is Pete Best.
Yes, Alec Baldwin not only gets out of the way of Paul’s reminiscences but he is able to make Paul comfortable. Maybe because it’s audio and not video. The many filmed interviews there are of Paul sound guarded and somewhat withholding. But not this one. I think there was love between the two of them. As if they were brothers. But since John’s departure from the group they both experienced a lot of drama, legalities, competition, resentments, and enjoyment of the variety of life beyond the Beatles that put distance between them. So it’s natural Paul isn’t going to be sounding wistful and enthralled about John. Instead he gives a measured account of how inseparable they were (“2-sides of the same coin”) and how much they enjoyed life and music together during their formative & productive years. It was interesting to hear from Paul how John’s broken family life was expressed in his later work which grew increasingly dark and anguished.
If George and John were still alive it would have been a barrel of laughs at John's 80th. birthday bash. I could imagine the four of them getting their guitars and drums out and instead of playing the hits playing the 'Ying Tong song' or old war time standards. Their collective sense of humor was a huge part of their magical chemistry.
It may have been John’s birthday, but we all got the gift of hearing Paul’s recollections!!! 😎
duh
there are just so many questions to ask. What is he supposed to ask? Do you like ice hockey? Do you believe in UFO?
THIS IS AMAZING !😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😎😎😎😎😍😎😍😍😍😍😍
I love how he defended John too for the "bigger than Jesus comment" as if he made it too. That's called not giving an eff about the HATERS and taking it for the team. I'm a new Christian and I got criticized for defending and preferring the fact that people do not get censored! That's why Jesus THREW the tables over!! (none-holy roller signing out here)
John is always considered the off the wall genius, and Paul is the level headed genius. Together, they were like, oh man, phenomenal.
"Off the wall genius". You talk nonsens.
I don't think I talk nonsense. A drug induced written song is off the wall, and when it becomes a top hit, it's hard not to say genius.
@@toddkloster6013 Drug Induced? 🤣 you do know John wrote the majority of Beatles #1 Hits during the “BeatleMania” phase before The Beatles tried drugs... John was a Genius period, with or without drugs. Commercial or experimental, direct or abstract. He could do it all
@@hw343434 Did I say this wrong? I apologise. I get emotional when I talk about him so maybe I didn't say what I meant correctly. I should have said off the charts talent. When he hit his groove, there was nothing like it. Forget what I said. I'm sorry. Love John, Paul, George, and Ringo.
@@toddkloster6013 No need to apologise dude, we all have our opinions on the great man, nothing wrong with off the wall genius. Tomorrow never knows falls in to that category
I could listen to PAUL all day , regardless of if I've heard that story before. He is still the coolest guy on earth. Thank You Paul for all of your interviews over 60 years. We love to get to know you. If I could ask Paul a question, I'd ask this. Paul , could you share with us a time when you or both of you had just written a song that really made you feel the shiver internally that this was going to be a lasting sound of success? A writers high if you will ? An internal excitement. I'd love to hear this, as it has never been asked, and I'd love to know. As a song writer I wonder about the magic of
creation and how Paul feels about this internal excitement.
If i was you i would not confess that easily that you can listen to "Sir Paul" (William) endlessly.
Because once the truth comes out you will have to unlearn everything William have been lied about since he replaced JPM late 1966 "as an already set up affair".
Wasting time on listening to the lies of William is pointless.
@@olskzeri1476 LOL! That's hilarious! Too bad some stupid conspiracy theorists people really believe that! I'm sure you were joking Ölsk. :) I remember Paul laughing about that silly stuff and saying "I am alive"
@@mirrortime He is not joking. He is on hundreds of Beatle/Paul videos with thousands of comments about the "Paul is dead" BS.
shut up nobody cares
@@olskzeri1476 if thats the case “william” done better things than paul
Never get tired of listening to Paul's stories . It doesn't seem that he's tired of telling them but it must get old for him after so many years of endless interviews . The sign of a true professional entertainer .
it's because he's such a nice person, and loves their history.
@today is not yesterday
Were YOU? What makes you think you know better?
He genuinely loves what he does and he’s also humble and knows how lucky he is to have the success he did, but he also knows he’s good at what he does and that’s the truth.
@today is not yesterday stupid comment. They grew up together since they were teens, they changed as they got older like everyone does, they still loved each other, they just wanted to go in different directions, no other band has had such an intense and successful career as they had. That’s life.
I had a friend at work who’s son used to roadie for Paul and I asked him if Paul was really nice as he seems in interviews and he said “absolutely! He’s a really nice and genuine guy who is very approachable”. I was so happy to hear that as it’s just heartbreaking when you meet your idol only to find out that they are not nice people.
We must protect this man at all costs. Worldwide treasure.
@MorbidManMusic Remains well the dude is 80 so what else can we expect. Hoping for many more years but bracing for the inevitable.
Agreed.
We must protect him... from Alec Baldwin lmaooooo
Agreed. Keep trigger happy Alec Baldwin away from him.
Hey, Morbid! Did you ever consider you might go first? No guarantees here. Anybody can go at anytime.
Enjoyed that a lot. Great hearing Paul talk about his auld mucker.
The Beatles were always more than just music. They were, warts an all, beautiful people. The world caught onto that.
@@rikkousa Yes I listened to all of that interview, it was really good. Enjoyed it a lot thanks.
It was nice to hear Paul acknowledge George's contribution on "And I Love Her." You so rarely hear anything about anyone else but John and Paul in these interviews. And hearing his assessment of John's parents and so on is wonderful, tells us so much more about John, and Paul's upbringing vs. John's.
Listening to this interview as I'm reading through the comments and haven't gotten up to this comment yet. Paul has previously acknowledged how George's contribution to "And I Love Her" to his song to another level.
Paul gave George credit for this in Martin Scorsese's Living in the Material World
It was honest of him to credit George with the guitar intro-shame he didn't credit him on the publishing,but I imagine they all contributed to each other's songs at times.
I'm sure that fans know that from late '64-'65 the hotels didnt want to host the group because of the security risk so they actually stayed in some private homes
Would love to have that question asked of Paul or Ringo to hear about those adventures :)
Does anyone know if this was ever brought up?

This just might be Paul's best interview done about John and their relationship.
I never knew Alec Baldwin was such a good interviewer. I could listen to Paul's stories all day. He really is an international treasure. Paul was always such a gentleman. I love how he talks about John. I know he dearly loved him.
Im not sure about how good an interviewer he is , but I do know hes a damn good shot .
Love you John, Paul, George,Ringo
GREAT, GREAT interview. I didn't plan on listening to the entire segment, but I couldn't stop listening. As a 66 year old, their music has been a tangible fabric of my life.
The thing I like about the Beatles music is that it makes me feel good ,40 years later it still makes good.
Sorry to have to tell you this but 40 years ago was 1980
Yeah, I don't go out of my way to listen to the Beatles any more, but I loved them, and what was good about them was that they were light, positive and fun. Today's music is just sick and nothing to listen to. No one would listen to it at all except that they have to brainwash kids to think they have to rebel against their parents with ugly negative music.
Makes you happy, cheers you up and if you play guitar like myself gives me goosebumps
Wow. Everyone who was alive during the Beatles era or who loves their music should listen to this. This is a credit to TH-cam and an opportunity to learn what was.
Blessing to still hear Sir Paul's stories about his an John's historic life moments together, reminiscing all the fond memories.

My best friend Cliff comes from Liverpool and we once hitched from Singapore to Bangkok. We are still in touch 54 years later though I now live in Prague. The wit that Paul mentioned is I believe a Liverpool thing. Cliff is just the same as John Lennon with an acid tongue which cuts through and deflates any pretension - their speciality. :) I often wondered if George wrote all the intros to Beatle songs because if so he was the most memorable intro riff writer of all time as each one is so recognizable when you hear it. So Paul has confirmed at least one. He's also confirming that the sum of the Beatles was greater than the parts.
pauls memory still like an arrow...beautifull
Hi my Beatle Family, I Love listening to Sir James Paul McCartney. His Voice makes me HAPPY & GIVES ME SUCH A WARM COMFORT. AND I LOVE HIM 💖💞❤💋
He has a gorgeous tone to his voice I like his book reading 🙏
I've loved him forever and when Covid hit, I've worried about his health daily. I will always love them all.
@Daniel White Thank goodness. He's a healthy guy, but this is scary all around.

Here's my 70 year old perspective. I was thirteen when I got my first guitar and first Beatles album, Christmas, 1963. I grew up with them, saw them in Toronto and became a professional musician. Being a life-long fan, I believe that John loved Paul and vice versa. They had a deep and profound impact on each other. When Yoko arrived, I think she was jealous of that bond, which caused problems for them and the group. John followed his new path with Yoko and Paul had much success with Wings and his career. The music they all created has passed into history as new generations discover their songs. I am glad they never re-grouped. The swan songs of " Abbey Road " were enough.
James, I couldn't agree more. The Beatles were definitely lightning in a bottle, there was a certain magic there. I don't believe it would have been sustained at the same level if they'd stayed together. I think they drifted at just the right time. John and Paul had a special relationship. It had it's bumpy stretches - what relationship of that depth doesn't? - but in the end, as Paul has hinted many, many times, they loved one another.
It blows my mind to remember that the Beatles from: - Please, Please Me (1963) to Let It Be (1970) - In just those eight years they accomplished writing and recording 229 original songs - many of which are collectively known and loved by hundreds of millions of people around the globe. A rare and exceptional confluence of talent that became a force in musical and cultural developments that are still in play today. I feel privileged to have lived in this time. I would feel the same way if I were a contemporary of Mozart. Beatles songs will still be appreciated hundreds of years down the road.
You are right Darry, not all of us have worked that out, nor have we worked out that wearing tin foil hats on our heads to facilitate an encounter with the flying green spaghetti monster will get us closer to enlightenment to begin resting our fatigued souls of discontentment and frivolous provocations.
Except, that Paul; is a superficial twit, who happens to be a musical genius.
While John; was endlessly deep and fascinating.
It's a ridiculous assessment of Yoko Ono. By the time she and John became an item, the Beatles had pretty much exhausted their creative vision and energies as a band. It's clear that they were soulmates. There's no such thing as a magical circle in which things always remain the same. Life is a progression, people change and evolve, not necessarily for the better. If they don't they're condemned to repeat themselves and stagnate. Lennon and McCartney partied their ways at just the right moment and went on to compose their own music, each w a few hits of their own (Mull of Kintyre, Imagine, A Jealous Guy). But what they accomplished as a band, was solid gold, enough to last them a lifetime.
This is the first honest interview with Paul McCartney. Excellent! Glad I listened to it. Thank you Alex Baldwin.
Paul's right about the age thing i had a mate at 16 who was 17 nearly 18 and i looked up to him like he was a hero. He was witty , confident etc but as you get older things change and level out a bit.
I'm amazed that there were so many school mates of mine that I never spoke to, simply because they were a year older or younger, and they never entered my circle of classmates or friends. Today one year, many years difference is nothing.
Amazing hearing Paul reflect on things and happenings we all knew about. We all have these things in our life, old age, a time for reflection. What a life to live on the world stage. What great people, all four of them. We all miss John so much.
I’ve enjoyed every thing John last week and this weekend and the concerts and Paul and Julian Sean on the radio and now this interview it’s always a treat to here Paul talking this made my Sunday thanks Paul allso a treat to here Alec Baldwin my adrenaline was high and when it was all over l must admit. I cried my eyes out my partner too cried we did not want it all to finish a big thanks to all who contributed to the events over the past weeks 👋👋👋👋🙏
Yes it’s true John was considered to be the leader but Paul was actually the task master. Ringo always said, “we owe it to Paul that we have as many albums because he always pushed us to work”
yea , Paul was the workaholic
John liked the idea of The Beatles reaching the top of popularity, which they (obviously) did. Paul just loved being a Beatle -- he still loves being a Beatle. And that's why all of us who grew up loving the Beatles are listening to this.
I never realy cared for Baldwin but I must say I think this is one of the best interviews of Paul I'd ever heard. Baldwin great job.
It must be weird to be a celebrity and loathed by some ordinary bloke whom you've never even met, much less know.
1:40 There's a clip somewhere (maybe in the ANTHOLOGY) where right after a concert performance of "Yesterday," the other three come back onstage and John gets on the mic and says, "Well done, Ringo."
XD
Fascinating interview. What’s so incredible is that Paul and the Beatles remained down to earth human beings, after all these years.
Thanks for posting this.
We all miss John so much!
Hello, how are you doing. I hope you are safe and in good health.
I just found your picture attractive, hope you don’t mind us chatting sometimes to get to know each other.
Alec’s a very good interviewer, this was great .
Paul is such a generous hearted man. He could have been very negative about Yoko but chose to see her as something John needed, even at the cost of the band.
I still think she had no business being in the recording studio with the band, but John was going to go his own way in any case. And why should Yoko still bug me, when she doesn’t even bug Paul ?
McCartney is a living example of Get Your Attitude Right, for your own happiness as well as others’.
Linda and Heather were in the studio some too
@@waynelawson5707 Aagh ! Boundaries, people, we need to set proper boundaries !
Generous hearted man? You act like John required Paul's permission to fall in love and have a girlfriend. John could do whatever the hell he wanted to do and didn't require Paul's approval for anything he did.
Twice I met Paul (and Linda) in New Orleans when they were recording "Venus and Mars". The recording studio was around the corner from my mom's house. There was only about 15 fans that would wait for Paul (driving) and Linda to pull up in their white convertible to my small neighborhood street everyday. It was Feb 1975 and Mardi Gras season and they were in town with all their kids. Got his autograph and several pictures. Had a few minutes to talk to him too. Man, he was so down to earth - but I was floating!
Beyond awesome! Magneto and Titanium in a white Convertible, down New Oleans..(onthe mainstreet?)
Awesome, love that album!!!
That must have been a treat!
What a lovely bit of nostalgia. Just great.
@@whyyeseyec Indeed it was and still is!

Your so right I’m so glad I’m in the world with the four men 🚶♀️🚶♀️🚶♀️🚶♀️
I saw a 60 sec clip of Paul at s restaurant and he was NOT happy w the photos. He went out and confronted him. U don't c it very often tho
Thank you, Gentlemen!! That was SO GOOD. So pure and relaxed and FUN and informative - about our beloved John and Paul.
John was a person who showed a big heart in all his songs. 🤗
There's a person that, regardless of what you thought, was very misunderstood, fearless, didn't g.a.f. about what the world thought when he married Yoko, and yet for all is faults and mistakes, absolutely, did not deserve to be murdered.
Brilliant interview, one of the best I’ve heard. Paul was just so natural and forthcoming with his memories of John.
John’s death was such a horrible way for such a beautiful story to end.So cruel and unfair.
So horribly sad I don’t think I will ever get over it Love you John Happy 80th Birthday John Lennon ☮️💟😢😥😓😭
It was awful. He had so much more to give the world.
Absolutely heartbreaking.
i think that all the time. John was a very sweet person, did't deserve that cruel end
You know, the late "Joseph Thomas "Coke" Escovedo, former "Santana" Percussionist, once said ~
"You jive and you suffer the consequences."
John and Yoko were the cause of a lot of pain to Cynthia Powell Lennon and John Charles Julian Lennon.
John's murder, and Yoko's witnessing it, was simply bad karma!
John and Yoko treated Cynthia and Julian with utter contempt!
Lennon himself once sang ~ Instant Karma's gonna get you
Gonna knock you right on the head
Better get yourself together darlin'
Pretty soon you gonna be dead
Man! The irony!
Love and Peace To EVERY Beatles FAN!
Paul ought to write a book and narrate an audio book. I could listen to his old man voice all night

It never get's old,I can listen for hours. In my life i loved you more.
I just love to hear you Sir Paul, you have the best recollections of your younger life and the life of John, I was in Germany when John passed, I was devastated , I can’t even imagine how terrible it was for you and I am so sorry for that. Thank you for the wonderful interview with Alec. Thank you Alec for being a great Interviewer. God Bless both of you.
Paul bless him tells these stories a lot in different settings but it’s always fun to listen to them over & over, many new stories in this interview I’ve never heard 👂❤️
Paul does a lot of interviews. Just wish people actually asked different questions for a change
But I think Alec Baldwin tries. It is Paul who always deflects his replies in the same direction.
The first question Baldwin asks him is about how John seemed to be having such a wonderful time in the early days, obviously before 1967, but Paul veers it to : "Ah well.. you know.. we ALL did..".
Paul may be on his guard. Does not want to get into nasty bits. Does not want to discuss the difference in John before and after Yoko.
I start thinking: Baldwin should have placed in front of Paul's eyes some of the numerous spontaneous real takes where John & him have a blast together. When one looks at the footage, it is no wonder The Beatles were so adored. John & Paul, the composers, were magic!
But in recent interviews, Paul flattens everything out to almost boring.
Anyways, to someone who never saw real Beatles footage, the happiness, the pride in it all, or read about the passion in the band's break-up, this interview might be touching.
Well, I think Paul is the one always answering the same stuff. It would be so nice if he really open up in one of these interviews, cause you know, he’s not getting any younger and just imagine how great would it be to have something like that in the Beatles history.
How 'awful' of Paul to preserve the privacy of the people he loved. How 'awful' of him not to say things about people who are no longer here to defend themselves. I think Paul's sanitized answers come from a really moral place.
Whatya expect lol
I know what you mean, and while I partly agree, I think you need to bear in mind that (a) someone might be hearing the answers to these types of questions for the first time (just like there was a first time for us), and (b) not everyone is as knowledgeable about The Fabs as some of us are.
Paul is just so good at telling stories 💙 usually long interviews bore me but with him he’s different
If I interviewed Paul the first question I'd ask is, "do you remember when you were on SNL with Chris Farley? That was awesome."

27:11 "He didn't sail", actually John did sail, he captained a yacht in a storm, after everyone else got seasick, all the way to Bermuda. Said it was one of the profound experiences of his life.
Thank you so much for capturing this from the radio for us all to listen to. This truly is precious for all of us who lived through The Beatles and miss them so terribly. All we need is love.....
Thank you Gissela for sharing these latest interviews with us. Be well and stay safe.
Lovely fascinating interview . One of the best I have heard in a long time as Paul sounds like he really wanted to talk.

I always felt John was the leader of the Beatles before Sgt. Pepper and then afterward, Sir Paul. If it wasn't for Sir Paul toward the end, the Beatles would not have made Let it Be and Abbey Road. Sir Paul held ;them together at the end.
I've always kind of seen it as Paul really coming into his own as a full on arranger and songwriter, John and George wrote some really unique stuff but if you look at where their careers after the Beatles Paul was the most "progressive" and took the most risks musically. They didn't always work out, but he clearly wanted to try more ideas.
John was definitely the strongest personality when they started but it kind of seems like he got tired of that. My guess is a personality like that would resent being put in a box, and it kind of makes sense he would embrace the minimalist art Yoko was doing at the time and work that into his music.
That was in direct contrast to McCartney, who even on the "homespun" Ram album has lush orchestral parts on Back Seat of My Car and Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey.
It fueled a magnificent dichotomy that pushed the last few albums, but ultimately I can understand why it didn't last much longer, especially when the money stuff came in to play.
@Robd1 replies this has nothing to do with yoko, shut up
@@shawnmcvey7789 really? John with tomorrow never knows,happiness is a warm gun?
Then with imagine,instant karma, watching the wheels,jealous guy.
Maca is just about pop,John about art.
John was always the leader. It all revolved around him regardless of Paul's later "producing" John just let him run with it more as John could be lazy. As a matter of fact, John ended the band when it became boring work for him. He then needed to mingle with different musicans to avoid boredom, the reason he never formed another band as Paul did.
Bill Shepherd took over the band in "66 and his first LP was Sgt Peppers. Remember Sgt Pepper was centered on a Beatle gravesite.
WHAT A GREAT INTERVIEW! THANKS GUYS! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
A fine interview. It's touching to listen to Pauls story.🎶🎸❤️
I love this interview. Paul seems so relaxed. Baldwin brings in the acting element to really understand John as a character study. Paul even had a realization: He's an orphan! I felt that moment strongly.
John, seemingly, felt a kinship, with those at the orphanage at Strawberry Fields.
Great interview. Longtime Beatles fan here.
“I’ve Just Seen A Face”. I admire your portrait.
When Paul said that John was "a bit of a reader", I was reminded of Bill Hicks', "Looks like we got ourselves a reader!"
whatcha studyin?
Whatchoo readin fer?
"Somebody, get Ringo. He's in the corner.
He's got a song he wants to sing us.
Something about living in a Yellow Tambourine, or something.
Ooh! Look at him scoot!?!..."
The other British band joke, was The Who-ligans.
"Nobody knows what it's like...
To be a dust bin...
In Shaftesbury...
With Hooligans."
Happy 80th Birthday John Lennon!!!!
So many people knocking Pauls mate Alec.
Can't you all be thankful !!!
Why then listen to it. And move on. So many people have to nitpick anything they see or hear.
Just be grateful Pauls bloody still alive to speak openly about John to a mate for "US".
His doing it for us fans.!!!! 😊 Boy what a great bloke . X
Two fine Irishmen
Totally agree , check out Mary Lou by the Creative Force, amazing
Ok Karen .....
would you like too talk to the manager ??
Alec is a great listener. Hearing Paul's experiences is priceless!
Nope didn't listen.
A great inciteful interview and chat...well done Alex Baldwin and bravo to Mcartney for his honest recollections
Great interview , really enjoyed it very much , thank you xx
I love all these different interviews. The only thing I don’t like is that all of these interviews are, so alike. The only one that wasn’t. Was the interview Sean Lennon did with Sir Paul McCartney. Now that was an interesting interview. You could tell Sir Paul McCartney was even very engaged in the interview.
I really like those type of interviews. Sir Paul McCartney is more relaxed and cares about what he was answering.
Paul even sang one of his early songs to Sean. A song John and Paul wrote in their very early days that was never recorded.
I enjoyed that one too. Sean did a good job interviewing not just Paul about his father but Elton. Not to mention, his interview with Julian reminiscing about their different childhood memories with him. It was interesting to see them talk about both their perspectives of different times in John's life.
@@danielleramos2659 I also really liked Sean Lennon's interview with Paul, felt really open and honest. ++++++
I never ever in all the interviews, clips, tv footage ever heard JL express regret publicly. Or GH, for that matter. Maybe amongst ea other in privacy. I can remember the ED Sullivan Show when I was a baby, rockin out in front of the TV set plus my parents had albums that I wd play on the victrola. I knew how to use it at about 2. Lol And then going to the drive in movies to watch Help! and Hard Days night. I loved them then and I love them now. They were ingrained in us kids of that generation. Now my grandkids love them. ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Thank you so much for sharing this.
Splendid material. Thanks for uploading it.
John kept Paul’s ego in check and Paul kept John sober. Until the Lost week in L.A.
Good job.
Yea and John's ego was supposed to thrive, right? He had just much of an ego, if not a bigger one. But the band kept him grounded. They all kept each other grounded.
Were you there? stop with the BS
@David Mahady your point?
It seems that they were close and what's great they made up before John passed away. 💕💕💕
I think it's starting to dawn on folks that Paul needs to be interviewed as much as possible while he's still with us. The great thing is he doesn't seem to mind. He's a sharp guy so I'm sure he knows what's going on, bless him.
I was six years old sitting in my room when I heard I want to hold your hand on the radio and that changed my life
Very nice interview. Paul sounds very relaxed here.
Well done. Thank you for this interesting conversation.
thank you again ....I love hearing musical heroes/muses stories
I’d love to hear him not ‘on’ I understand he’s desensitised to these questions now and has a pat answer. You can’t blame him he wants to keep his real feelings and thoughts to himself.
And it’s hard when he knows everything he says will be analysed.
Listen to the interview Macca gave to Sean Lennon.
@@adelongis listen to this one. new questions, sweet answers: www.penguin.co.uk/articles/2019/dec/paul-mccartney-nihal-arthanayake-the-penguin-podcast/
I know what you mean, I feel the same! I have found this:
The sound quality here is bad, but this is my favourite ever interview. Paul is insecure here, worrying about how he is perceived:

Thanks people I’ll give them both a watch 🕺✌️
@@LaurenPassarelli cheers man just listened to the penguin interview was good and got relaxed and was genuinely funny.
I could listen to Paul talk all day.
No, what you can listen to is old "Sir Paul" (William) and his standard lies and coverstories.
Hello Kelly, how are you doing. I hope you are safe and in good health.
I just found your picture attractive, hope you don’t mind us chatting sometimes to get to know each other.
Love Paul, and what an amazing interviewer Alec is.
Fantastic to hear Paul tell stories of him and the lads.
Great interview, some new insight, lots of good questions and topics, good stuff back and forth.
An excellent interview Paul and John my heroes 🦸♀️❤️
Nice insights from Paul. I always appreciate it when he sheds light on the creative process. So many songwriters don’t go into it too much, as if looking at the process too closely might somehow cause them to lose their muse. Actually I think the opposite might be true, at least in some cases. Some songwriters do sort of lose their craft a bit as they age, and if they had put more analytical thought to the process when they were younger they might discover ways to keep the creativity going. Anyway, thank you very much Paul!!! Maybe I’ll go write my apprenticepiece now.
Hello, how are you doing and what is the weather like? I wish you a happy weekend.
@@allysonhanks9159 Hi. I’m well, I hope you are too. Enjoy the weekend!
@@davidwollpert5276 Yes I'm fine thank you for writing back David, nice to meet you here.
I so enjoy listening to Paul.Thanks for interviewing him,Alec!
Amazing info revealed. Learned a few things. Great talk!
I like to hear about how good songwriting teams wrote together. I always wished I can have someone to write with.
Writing is very personal but sharing it with people who know you so well sounds like fun.
Maybe it will manifest yet
I heard Alec's favorite Beatle album was Revolver.
Thank you for posting this.
Another great interview........ Thank you
Love listening again you both work well. In a interview I allso like your accent Paul. 🙏
When Alec didn't know about John's mother not being around I knew we were into one of those interviews. Nothing like doing your homework. Sean's interview with Paul is much better
Yes, I thought the Sean / Paul conversation was really great. Even though Paul tells a lot of the same stories we fans have heard a thousand times, Sean's reactions I found very interesting. He seemed really thankful to be getting these first hand accounts about his dad from Paul. Very touching.
Alec is not a teenage girl -- he had other things to do than read up on John in Teen Idol Magazine.
I had the same thought.... "What? An interview with P Mc... and you don't know the basics!!" ...
@Robd1 replies - Exactly. He was probably asking "So did you or John write Satisfaction? I love that one."
I especially loved that Sean wanted to know about his grandmother
Down to earth honesty from a man who knows - thank you Paul
Great stuff Thank you Sean and Paul
