Paul McCartney Names His Favorite Ringo Starr Songs
/ fallontonight
I swear Paul's favorite words are "ya know"
Even in rare Beatles footage he's always said it in interviews
magicman93 I thought i was the only Beatles fan who noticed that.
magicman93 say that to pacquiao
Alot of scousers say ya know its a liverpool thing
It's a Scouse thing
Amy Joyce A new Yorker can not order coffee without sticking a "You know" in threre. Mocca late Frapuccino with carame .. Ya knaw? .. Yes Mr. Gotti
I've always dreamed of this moment, when Sir will give Ringo his flowers.
Paul carefully outlining the importance of Ringo.
Paul is a gentleman and he knows how to keep his surrounding happy.
@JürgenCramer-x9eI can’t believe this but hoping to get a respond soon . Have sent a message right away
No one can do George's accent.. it's too perfect..
Best explanation ever!
it's very Scouse
Jess Harnell is able to do George's accent 😁👍🏻
George had the best accent ever....
George: What a nice fella
It must be exhausting to be a Beatle and be followed by that "let me show you my Paul McCartney impression" energy everywhere
My dad said something about his parents energy level because ringo is so hyper. But he’s been that way since he left the Beatles
Sounds like Fallon knows he is really talking to William Campbell Shears, AKA Billy Shears, and making a sly joke about him doing a good impersonation of McCartney. It’s so obvious when you just look at the pix of PM through 1966, and the incoming BS from 1967. Right in plain sight. That said, BS is an amazing musician in his own right. It would just be great if he quit the charade....
@@nealixd.3011 No-one really believes this do they?
Nealix D. go take your crazy pills.
Nealix D.
So Paul McCartney grew a mustache in 1967. That MUST mean he was REPLACED! Of course! A dead giveaway! In “plain sight”
Guest: "Hi"
Jimmy Fallon: "Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha"
Jimmy fallon: hi
Audience: hahahahahahahaha
he IS giddy. i mean in general not just in this clip. that's part of his charm.
James Hudson it’s really obvious! Just look at any of the SNL skits he’s on
@@fofnifolar what is?
James Hudson that he’s just giddy and excited
Jimmy's interview:
-Question
-Laugh
-Another question
-OH SCREW THE INTERVIEW, LOOK HOW GOOD IS THIS IMITATION!!!
Fallon interviews himself.
Seriously! I wanna hear Paul talk, not Jimmy trying to talk like Paul!
+itai bachar
"But enough about me; what do _you_ think of me, Paul?"
That's a style pioneered by Conan O'Brien, a/k/a the "Anti-Carson".
He gets excited because he is a true fan that's why i like him he isn't stuckup
It seems like he's having a hard time getting Paul to talk, though. It just seems that in all the Paul McCartney interviews, he looks like he doesn't want to be there. He just says exactly what people expect him to say, and no more. He's a very businesslike and private person.
Chris Farley lives.
I don't think Jimmy understands that nobody's watching this for him, we're watching it for Paul. Let the legend speak for God sake.
Nah
jimmy is a scrub. couldn't make it on snl and some moron gave him a show. He cannot even have a show when the writers strike. He's not a comedian and isn't funny. @@nickhueper2906
Ringo was successful before the Beatles, and at 79 is still going strong. I think he is the most successful drummer in history.
phil collins ?
@@srow4302 more than sir Ringo? Maybe.
Charlie Watts
Gene Krupa.
Buddy Rich.
Ringo was "successful" as the drummer of, Rory Storm & The Hurricanes??? LOLOL That's a joke, right??? lmao
Take a shot every time Paul says "You know?" and scratches his nose.
Lol the Beatles come on stones are a rock n roll band zeppelin Beatles were 1st pop group
+ZachTalksMusic 94 LOOOL
Cocain maybe?
And wiping an imaginary tear away when talking about John.
I’m drunk
"He's very famous". lol
Typically Paul british humor...
he's brilliant
he’s very clean
Ringo: Hey guys! I wrote a song!
Beatles: Wow! That's great, Ringo. Let's stick it here on the fridge. 😊
Family Guy LOL
Same with most Harrison material as well
Harrison had the best post Beatles songs. You might have to listen to some before you say that.
brian hardy I agree. Harrison was the best of the former Beatles, at least as far as studio recordings go both solo and with the Wilburys.
brian hardy
I never said he didn't? lol, the comment was refering to how his tunes got sidelined in favor of Lennon-McCartney songs.
Omg. Look at the way Paul FREEZES at the end when Jimmy says "You really are the best Paul McCartney impersonator!!!!"
smalla ss PAUL
DANGEROUS COMEDY Maybe Paul really died 50 years ago and this guy is just a doppelganger
Rolling Rock he did not. There are too many proofs for him being alive, and his genius cannot be duplicated. Check out a channel of my friend called 'Macca Lives'. I also convince a lot of people Paul is not dead, but i'm short on time now. I'll copy one of my youtube comments for you to read soon.
Amit Kalderon I know that he is the real Paul. I just said it because of his reaction in the end
Rolling Rock good :)
I had the pleasure and honor of seeing Sir Paul McCartney last year in concert and it was one of the best things to ever happen in my life.
I had the honor to have dinner with him a couple months ago and it was the most boring shit I've ever had to go through.
1:59 when he said he can’t really do George, I literally screamed “bRacKeT”
Me tooo lollll
he can't do Paul, Ringo or John either
retr0, I don't get it. Can you please explain? 🙂
Oh hell , Fallon calling him the best Paul McCartney impressionist is going to get the Paul is dead nuts going again
johnny foosball That's the joke
Paul admitted to Chris "I am the Walrus" Farley that it was all planned because Lennon wanted to be "more popular than Jesus" again
johnny foosball how are we nuts?
***** Paul isn't dead , John and George are. William Campbell is not Paul or Faul . John admitted repeatedly that the Paul's death clues on the albums were just for publicity.Also and this should even convince the most die hard Faul conspiricist, are you going to tell me that some schmuck who won a look a like contest could write and sing as well as Paul , and be responsible for the best music the Beatles ever made on Sgt. Pepper and Abbey Road
johnny foosball no, i never said that
I never realized til recently how Fallon makes the interviews more about him than the guest.
Was the whole point of this interview just to show how many Beatle impressions Jimmy could do?
What did Paul actually manage to say in this clip?
Well, he could only do four at the most.
He got cut off before he could mention Photograph!!!!!
every interview is just Jimmy showing off his sad little "impressions" infront of his idols and as soon as he gets his fill he quickly deflects to the guest to make it seem it is about them
TokyoKazama I think the whole point of this is so Jimmy Fallon could give the world another clue that The real Paul McCartney is dead
yep, that was the whole point of this little scene
Paul is a living legend. I wish Jimmy had let him speak more. Love you Paulie !!!
I've got blisters on me fingers!
Brenden Robbins ...from cringing over Fallon in this clip.
He said that on the mono version of the white album right?
He said that at the end of helter Skelter
It's hella fun to watch this guy kick ass!
TOYS ARE HELLA SICK
Hella Sick!
I love the little dig at Paul doing a Paul impression, I think that was a dig at the whole "Paul is dead" thing
hola buenas tardes saludito aki en san luis potosi 😘
NO. Jimmy Fallen is to self involved to think of something that clever.
paul is not dead he's still alive
+BerthA Salazar Saludos a San Potosi desde Madrid de un Liverpudlian (o casi Liverpudlian, nos separaba el rio Mersey)
+malarbusto Saludos desde USA. Mexico/España/UK forever
I liked seeing Paul do an impression of how people do a Beatle impression. lol:)
So fucking painful. And this was probably the best interview Jimmy's ever done.
thats a good point there mr.Taliwakka. if we had been 7 years old that is..
stian dovahkiin oh cmon.. That's funny and you know it
ofc it is! if youre around the neighbourhood of 7 years old ;-)
"Ringo is very talented. He always picked up our laundry on time, pulled the cars around after sessions, and paid for the order-out food when it came to the door."
be facetious all you want but that nigga got that laundry crisp clean
steve conn lol
Brings a musical legend on to the show.....does impressions
Yank moment
Impressions were absolute rubbish. What a total disgrace and a national embarrassment 😳
good for Ring o he deserves it long live Ring o and Paul both are so lovable
Fallon always makes himself the center of attention, even when interviewing a legend. We all know Fallon is good with impressions, but this is an interview.
I don't get why Jimmy gave out this silly laugh when Paul mentioned how Ringo is famous. Apparently Paul seems to didn't get it either. Ringo IS famous Jimmy! Much more than you will ever be!
I think that's the joke. Hes a BEATLE.
it's like me saying, Robert Plant is good shrieker.
The joke is that Paul is as (if not more) famous than Ringo.
Because Ringo was to be inducted into the Hall of *Fame*, and Paul was playing with that.
Paul was definitely saying it as a joke. It's a very dry comment. "Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, gotta put in Ringo, he's rock and roll and he's famous." It's just like a Captain Obvious thing to say.
'I can't do George' you can't do John Paul or ringo either
He can do John
I thought Ringo was very accurate 😁
@@aryamansingh08 The only bit close to John was the nasally tone. Everything else’s was WAY off. I don’t know what you’re hearing. I’m from England and live right next to Liverpool
@@bretellis I'm from Liverpool and I agree with you, his impressions of The Beatles (and Scouse accent in general) are terrible
@@StevenTwoTwo They may not be perfect like you, but his impressions are FAR from being terrible. Get off your stupid high limey horse.
I love how Paul says back off boogaloo is one of his favorites when the boogaloo in question in which the song asked to back off was Paul.
+Joshua “Josh” Gill That is one way to see it.
+Joshua “Josh” Gill That is untrue, Back off Boogaloo was discredited as being towards Paul, Ringo himself has said that it was a song that was inspired by Marc Bolan and had absolutely nothing to do with Paul, thanks for spreading lies though! :)
The ol’ Frankenstein monster Billy Shears!
When the Beatles broke up, Ringo really caught fire and he's still going strong!
Loved the part where Paul shares his favorite Ringo Songs! 😀
I never understood why Ringo was the least popular beatle. Ringo was an awesome drummer!!
I think it's the opposite. Probably the first rock drummer whose name everybody knew.
It's because he was the least talented and because drums aren't considered as cool as guitar, he's the one sat down at the back while everyone else was at the front with their guitars
@@Aderin.true. Bass and drums are so underrated. My favorite parts of a song
Loads of girls lives Ringo
@2:05"You do a fantastic Paul McCartney!" Jimmy Fallon
Watch Paul's mouth drop open!
Grab the tin foil hats everyone, the martians are coming!
+missy cat It's not a ridiculous reaction, at first if someone said that to me I think I'd be a little confused. I'm sure it's a bit annoying having a ton of people claiming you are an imposter and your reactions will be analysed in minute detail whenever it comes up.
He hinted faul 😂😂
Just like that Letterman interview. He was put on the spot there. Billy boy would be terrified of his secret coming out now!
Correction, watch Faul's mouth drop open.
Jimmy says Paul does the thing where he touches his nose and paul is like "really do I do that?" Meanwhile, he just did it right before at 0:56 hahah
Paul had to bite his tongue when Fallon said Ringo was the first with hit after hit... Um, Maybe I'm Amazed, Another Day, Uncle Albert, My Love, Band on the Run, Jet... Paul had consistent hits all through the 70's!!!
+The Adequate Gamer Agreed. Jimmy had several Rupert Pupkin moments in this interview, didn't he?
+The Adequate Gamer Maybe I'm Amazed wasn't released as a single. My Love & Band on the Run came way after the initial break-up period that Jimmy is referring too. Through 70/71 Ringo and Paul were neck and neck for hits - amazingly.
+Lynn Turman it's impossible, it's impossible!
+The Adequate Gamer Paul had a longer and more fruitful solo career. But in actualy fact Ringo was the first one to get a string of hits.
I'm pretty damn sure he was being sarcastic, which is why he laughed after
Paul has that much power in the industry. He could just get someone's put into the hall.
Ringo was always my favourite beatle.
Mine too Isaac. He seemed to have the least ego and just wanted to play his drums for the love of it. George had a similar approach to life. Of course, Paul and John were musical geniuses, no one disagrees with that. It's all part of history now.
@@mso4433 yup, thats why Ringo could play along & play it well too, meaning he was not being all flashy, his drumming was creative, at times the rhythm was never heard b4 & just suits the songs that the other members had written, a good accompaniment👍👍he's a happy go lucky, peace & loving drummer indeed😊😊
@2v_5r anyway.
0:51 Paul made a "phhh" sound, I bet he was gonna say Photograph.
Jimmy just wasted 5 minutes of Paul McCartney's life.
Jimmy is a waste of life period.
@@Kacee2 I agree
@@Kacee2 goddamn
...and mine :-/
Calm down. It's as if he just breathes and yall get insulted. Nothing to shout about. Jeez
That's exactly right! Faul McCartney is doing an "impression" of Sir James Paul McCartney! June 18, 1942-November 9, 1966
are you joking?
@@pepsisenpai3312
No I'm not. You must be a young person! I'm 62!
omg that last part caught me off guard😂 paul was NOT amused
Paul loves my two favorite Ringo songs!
I have watched this so many times ---never get tired of seeing Paul with Jimmy. Just too cool.
God when he performs he looks so much younger and his face just brights. I love him.
Leave it to Fallon to screw up what should be an incredibly interesting interview- fail
Nerves. I imagine hes been a fan all his life and probably wants to impress him, who wouldnt?
yeap.... but still... Impress a Beatle? .. It´s like punching Mike Tyson
I like jimmy but that day he was an idiot
Paul's a good sport and still gives his friend a hand in the studio.
Those were the worst Beatles impressions I've ever heard. I also wanted to hear Paul talk more. Jimmy constantly talked and laughed over him; it was a bit rude.
+Katrina Leonard I agree. It's always about Jimmy. he should watch some Carson episodes and learn how to showcase the guest.
They show Tonight Show with Johnny Carson on Antenna TV every night, and every time I watch I can't help but think the EXACT SAME THING. Johnny was a master because he knew how to LISTEN. He was engaging and bright and funny, but it was never about him. It was about the guest. So true. I miss Letterman. Dave became a very good interviewer as the years went on. Not at first. Closest I've seen to Carson/Letterman is Seth Meyers. It's on a little late, but when I have seen it, he's very good. He knows how to fucking listen!
no he does that with a lot of supremely famous guests and it would've been more disrespectful (to Paul McCartney, as well...) to not not do it/treat him differently. and he definitely appreciated it. because he's smarter than you peasants :-D the worst impressions you've heard?! go and eat a diarrhea sock you a hole
his impressions are fucking superb. and I'm from Liverpool, these things aren't getting past me easily
Katrina Leonard
same
It don't come easy is absolutely a great song.
Paul is not amused.
Nevel Papperman john always made him laugh :(
its probably because Paul thought back to the rumors that he is dead when he said you make a good paul impresssion.
John... always made... him :((.... laugh.... i'm sad man
Gui Porto No I reckon old Paul's having a wonderful time man.
A wonderful Christmas time, man
1:57 "George is the tricky Beatle." He's also the Scottish Beatle by the sound of that impression
Paul is my personal favorite :3
This man has such charm and grace! !
When he said he did a fantastic Paul impersonation all I could think about was Faul.
Dude! Way to go on those impressions! That's awesome! And the fact that Ringo will be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame? About time! You can't not have Ringo in there. That's just crazy!
FYI - Ringo had the most Top 10 singles than any other solo Beatle. Paul has the most Top 40.
Really.? Yellow submarine?
Ringo has the best back catalogue, because he played on all The Beatles stuff plus half of George's, John's and Paul's solo work, and has 20 albums of his own.
Ringo DID come out with a string of hits shortly after the breakup, even more than Paul. Everybody thought once the group broke up Ringo would just fade away but he came out with a string of good songs from 1971-74.
He Does a Great Paul McCartney impression & he has been doing it since 1966 . . . Nice One Bill . . . .
omg I love that interview
"I like all the songs I wrote for Ringo, and I liked how he swept up the studio and pulled our cars around at the end of every session, too."
LOL....it don't come easy for most drummers so Ringo only swept up until he was filthy rich. After they were famous Ringo used to tell Pete Best outside the studio to Back off Boogaloo
"Do you think Ringo is the best drummer in the world?"
"Ringo isn't even the best drummer in the Beatles"
Jimmy Griffin My favorite quote.
+Jimmy Griffin yes, this was NEVER said...except by a comedian, Jasper Carrot..it's an urban myth
Ackyman Unfortunately sums up the truth about Ringo in the band.
"Yurr, I really luvved John, ya know." ( wiping an imaginary tear away ).
Aside from the fake laughing, He does a great ringo impression. Hats off to him...
1. Love my Macca but he looks like a candle that's been slowly melting for 73 years! He's such a cute old man! ❤️
2. George impressions aren't that hard: you just have to say "and so, you know" a lot and raise and lower your voice at the right time
The Paul McCartney is Dead conspiracy is still alive. Jimmy said "You're the best Paul McCartney impersonator " lol
i love him
Got to put Ringo in the hall of fame he is very famous lolol
that was double folded sarcasm you wallet
I fucking love Paul McCartney.
I have never bought into the whole "paul is dead and was replace by a double" bit , but it is funny how freaked out Paul looked when Jimmy said, "you are the best Paul impersonator ever." The look on Paul's face was, oh my Lord, I have been exposed!
He probably doesn't like the rumor at all and wants it to be forgotten, I mean, his identity's been questioned for 45 years by the time of this interview and he's probably tired of this conspiracy theory
Can’t fucking believe Fallon said he made the best Paul impersonator. :o FALLON KNOWS.
Jimmy say's to Faul 2:00 'But you do a fantastic Paul McCartney' and Faul is stunned.
this came out on my bday and i love the Beatles
Fallon: is he like the first Beatle to come out with hit after hit really fast
McCartney: He did (rubs nose)
Hahahaha smooth one Paul.
My dream is to just hug him and ringo at the same time for like 5 minutes
There's a thousand Paul McCartney interviews and everybody's bitching that Jimmy didn't let him talk. I actually enjoyed this. I've never seen anybody actually make fun of a Beatle to their face. Come on, this is gold.
He is not making fun of Paul he loves Paul.He is joking!
This is just magical....oh God I want meet Sir Paul... please just once...
Would have been nice if Paul had acknowledged that "It don't come easy" was actually a George song!
'I can't really do George.'
No, Jimmy. You can't really do any of them! Ringo was the closest. John was fucking terrible.
Quite obvious. But for most Beatle impersonators (or people who try) George is the hardest since he has the thickest Scouse accent.
no George and John have the thickest accents. and jimmy fallons impressions are always gobsmackingly good. if they are noticably off, then he intended them to be for comedic benifit
I've never known _anybody_ do convincing impressions of them. Their voices, particularly John's, are so hard to copy.
In the two movies he did, playing John Lennon (Backbeat & The Hours And Times), Ian Hart was remarkable.
I can :)
Paul is the most humble dude ever and he's one of the most famous people ever. I wish he was my grandpa.
Paul is great
Beatles Forever!
Jimmy's impression was spot-on Liver-pool.
Love this interview. Really fun.
Idk if its just me but Paul didn't seem too impressed when Jimmy started doing impressions of John and George
Yeah, it was pretty disrespectful in my opinion, I wouldn't be very impressed either if somebody made fun of my two dead best friends lmao
me neither...
anyone I guess
Paul is not dead....watch old interviews of paul and he use to scratch his face with his middle or pointer finger and he still does that☝️
Billy Shears does a great Paul impression
Lmao
Jimmy s impressions are so funny
worst john lennon impression i've ever heard.
yeah, it sounds like John Lemon
drink your Clorox and shut up! give Jimmy a break...he does their accents pretty well and there are few bigger Beatlemaniacs than myself!
I was watching the "Wheel of Musical Impressions" videos and I was disappointed that none of the videos had them do a Paul McCartney impression. But then I watched this video and got the exact impression I wanted 😊
The Smiths, Joy Division, Deep Purple, Steppenwolf, King Crimson, Kraftwerk, Captain Beefheart and Pixies not in the Hall of Fame, but Ringo is? Sure, he has some good solo stuff, but how the hell is he more deserving than those?
(EDIT: For all the people who are angry at me, Ringo's being inducted into a SPECIAL category similar to sidemen which honours contributions to the work of others, so basically he's inducted for his work on Plastic Ono Band etc., NOT his solo career and I don't have a problem with that, I'd only doubt his place in the hall for his solo work (as mentioned before).
That means the Hall of Fame did NOT induct him for his solo career which also means you can stop writing upset replies telling me that he deserves to be in because he's a Beatle - which doesn't make sense since he was already honoured for that - or that I'm a hater who doesn't appreciate the Beatles (not true) or Ringo's drumming (not true either.).
Agree. Beatles as a group yes. But stone of those bands deserve to be in then the lot of them.
I totally agree with what your saying otherwise (and would like to add Yes, The Moody Blues, Warren Zevon, Chicago, The Doobie Brothers, Dire Straits, Thin Lizzy, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, and many more I'm sure), but he's being inducted as a sideman which is different to being inducted as an artist. He's probably one of, if not the most influential drummers in modern times.
You forgot def leppard ,judas priest, iron maiden and more
Dire Straits?
I have lived my entire life thinking that Deep Purple were in there, what is this black magic.
Paul McCartney is a saint god bless his soul :p
0:52 Paul's look when Jimmy points out that Ringo was the first solo Beatle to have hit after hit 🤣
Billy Shears insinuation at 2:05. Paul's reaction at 2:10.
You do the best Mc,artney impression,SAYS IT ALL!
that's your perception of jimmy fallon that's scewing the sane part of your consciousness. I take it you're American. and an idiot?
I love them all, but George is my fav!
This ...not sure what to call him...host...comedian...has one of the most talented musicians if not the most talented musician right in front of him and who is doing almost all of the talking? Good Lord, American entertainment. 👎
exactly the way Paul likes it I'm sure....... I'm not being sarcastic btw
You don''t like american entertainment? Why are you on TH-cam?
I adore American Entertainment: the Trump / Clinton show which currently offered is propably the greatest entertainment I've ever witnessed.
huk38 it's offered but they don't offer any freebies with it do they? If you buy a watch out of the daily star for just 88 quid they offer free farmfoods coupons (if you buy it right now) what free vouchers do those bastards yanks offer???
It's sort of tragic-comic.
This interview was actually enjoyable to watch.
Was the end of the interview a Faul reference?
Paul is adorable.
PUT WINGS IN THE HALL OF FAME ALREADY!!!
Right? I can’t believe they’re not
