"That is one self-confident performer." You do realize you're talking about Paul, right? The only other Paul I can think of who's had a bigger impact on the world wrote alot of the New Testament. lol
Paul McCartney, no way he forgets the words. He's too much of a perfectionist for that kind of a slip up nor was he drunk or stoned. He was just working up the crowd to keep it informal.

@@uncledavesfrontier6846 It does, and it happens to the best of them.

It’s actually ridiculous just how complex his songs are. People who don’t know think most Beatles songs were three chords, could not be further from the truth, epic epic songwriting
He’s so different when performing for a British audience. More like a small group of old friends just hanging out and singing some songs. Says a lot about the world.
No other pop or rock group comes close to The Beatles' brilliant body of work . Lennon and McCartney were master songwriters , and George Harrison wasn't too bad himself . Best band ever .
The 4 Beatles were a Miracle. Their Lyrics, Music, and Recordings Pushed Music to New Levels. They Pushed Their Ow Music to New Levels Never to Be Matched in Quality and Certainly Quantity. How Did 4 People from Liverpool End Up Together and then Accomplish the Impossible? Beyond Imagination! What a Gift to Humanity for Eternity!
Yes!!! Nailed that one superbly in a classic Beatles track. Great seamless transitions in major/minor and tempo variations! Gretch tone great for Beatles music. Unique and brilliant band! Loved it! 🎸👌
@@justiceforjamespaulmccartney I remember when that idiocy was happening, McCartney let it ride. It's extra publicity he said. I didn't think there were idiots out there who still believed it.
@@68blues I just told the truth. Idiots are those who cannot see or accept the truth. And they are many. The real Paul McCartney did not need extra publicity, for God's sake.

PS:( I always knew he did this in D major.) Peace
If only it were so. Paul can't and won't tell anything that resembles the true story of The Beatles and many people in the know have said it. He also hasn't been able to sing for at least the past 10 or 15 years. But undoubtedly, he and John were the very best thing to happen to pop music ever. And Paul did have the best voice with the most unique character in all of pop music. They changed my life and saved my life. But Paul - being the most sincere person, who can still sing his songs in their original key- I respectfully beg to differ.
Paul could hum or wistle the damn melody and it would sound fantastic..and a million times better than most of the crap around today. thank you SIR McCartney
TOTALLY understand missing it once but never thought he'd muff it again and even in the final. Good on him for stopping and trying to get back on track. Imagine having to try and remember ALL the songs he knows and plays!!?? Even non-Beatles songs!! I can barely get through Mary had a little lamb..
I’m so glad he is still with us. While his song writing isn’t what it used to be (although he’s earned the right to do whatever the f~>* he wants), the fact that at his age he can still perform as long and as strongly as he does is just incredible, and the world has been blessed with (but not really deserving of) his presence for all these decades and is a fa better place because of it.
If only his presence was the single thing the world was not deserving of. We've also had to endure a half century of his really, really forgettable compositions.
We know them better than him..because we listen over and over while he's making a ton more songs:) Tho, gotta have John singing with him on this..that voice with Paul is so missed!❤
He still got them wrong even the final time around LOLOL!! I only find this highly amusing because I sing this is an acoustic duo and my guitarist was busting my chops for flip flopping the lyrics before I got them wired in. Because the lines are very similar and thus hard to remember. So God Bless Sir Paul for doing likewise, I feel so much better now!😊
Solos o en solitario da igual..siempre es un placer para los oidos oir sus canciones llenas de buen gusto y melodia. Gracias por existir . bravo Beatles 👍💚😘😘
I was never lucky enough to see the Beatles festival on Mathew Street 3 years on the trot and it was magic . Merry Christmas Paul and good luck in 2022🎸🎧⭐💓🌲✌️
@Joy Stinson What's interesting and somewhat sad IMHO is that after the Beatles broke up he never, ever sang live "I Want to Hold Your Hand" or "She Loves You." Both classics.
Its because John always knew the lyrics :'( Its 2021 and I fucking love the Beatles. Ill do my best to make sure they are never forgotten. Whos with me? Rip John and George.
