To all the "rock stars" out there, this is how it's done. No ego, humble, witty, friendly, fun, smart.

[@Chavezoid]

Well...you can be laid back when you're the world's most legendary musician...and the richest on top of that.

[@majortom4543]

Pauls music isnt rock. Its a piece of shit. His album sucks.

[@crazyprayingmantis5596]

Major Tom I'm not much of a fan of this new album either, but to say that Paul McCartney isn't a rock star, cmon man.

[@majortom4543]

Crazy prayingmantis I didnt choose the right words, or more like i didnt write my thoughts correctly. , i mean just the album. i know Pauls roots are Rock, in all of the beatles and his stuff in band on the run is great. Im a fan of Paul but i wont listen to all of his stuff just because he did it. Sadly this album really lacks that magic Paul could do to create master pieces.

[@crazyprayingmantis5596]

Major Tom I agree totally, I don't care much for this album at all. In fact I'll probably never listen to it again, there's nothing on it that I want to hear again. But my initial comment was in regards to how a rock star should conduct themselves. He's a class act, no bullshit down to earth human being

Alright guys, break it up. I mean seriously Ramiro? If Taylor Swift ever produces an album to the quality of Let it Be, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, The White Album,. Abbey Road, or Revolver then give me a call, otherwise go somewhere else. You are delusional to think that Taylor Swift is anywhere near Paul McCartney.

[@GretaVanZeppelin1996]

@Ramiro Garcia Look, I'm not slamming Taylor Swift intentionally, I think that she has done some good stuff. I liked 'Shake it off' but comparatively speaking, there is no comparison. You really should do some research on the Beatles and listen to their music and who they inspired. They inspired an entire generation to produce music which is still being played today. John Lennon remains a world renowned figure even 38 years after his assassination. George Harrison's music was recently used in Guardians of the Galaxy, and the Beatles have sold the most albums ever. 272 million albums sold worldwide between 1962-2018. By comparison, Swift has only sold 87 million albums. Look, I don't mean to stand you up, but the Beatles are bigger than Taylor Swift will ever be. The numbers I've just showed provide solid evidence. The Beatles have two albums that are within the Top 50 best selling albums of all-time... Taylor Swift doesn't have any.

I saw the Beatles on August 15th, 1965 at NY Mets Shea Stadium. I was 12 years old, (a month shy of 13 lol) My then 16 year old sister was given the task of purchasing five tickets for herself and her girlfriends. At the last minute, one of her friends couldn't go. She took me! Seats right behind the 3rd base dugout. Insane night to say the least! I remember flash camera's going off all over the stadium, girls screaming, crying just being there. Spray painted bed sheets with all kinds of messages on them.

[@carollipton4584]

I saw them August 23, 1966 at Shea Stadium, a night I will never forget. I was 15. Still have my ticket stub after moving a gazillion times. My BF went to Pelham High with Sid Bernstein's daughter and got us in. I wore my blue dress bell bottoms with a lilac checked button-down gingham shirt. The screaming was so loud you could barely hear a thing except people shut up for Yesterday. Bobby Hebb opened and I think the Ronettes may have played as well. I remember the audience looked like a sea of white eyelet and lace, everyone in their best dress. I ran down as the concert broke, galloping down 6 levels and when I got to the mezzanine, the Brinks truck with the Beatles was pulling away, about 20' below me on the landing. Paul was by the window, saw me and waved and I waved back!

I'll never stop loving Paul, he's a beautiful human being. He makes us cry and laugh at the same time.

[@MonoLith2049]

He comes across as quite down to earth for one who is so legendary

[@dreamweaver1603]

He’s always been that way. He married Linda and stayed with her ‘til death parted them. I wouldn’t doubt it if I learned he never even cheated on her. He just seems like he has great values.

[@TheSnakeboy11]

Quite a clever man, and always humble. His music reflects his character.

[@luanju77]

Two weeks ago he gave a concert here in Buenos Aires. Almost 3 hours, he played the guitar, the piano, the ukelele... Paul, you're my hero. Love you to the moon and back

[@susanb9717]

His concerts are fantastic!!! I've been to a few and it's always close to three hours of great music and happiness. Only problem...no intermission, so watch that beer drinking!! I missed part of Blackbird 😩

[@annabeglarian3439]

I laughed :D

[@elizabethcanales7170]

Audience was clueless....

[@hothemeep1219]

He doesn't expect a laugh track everytime he speaks. Remember he's used to the very old talk shows where the interviews were not about being funny. If a joke didn't fly, it didn't matter

[@vandresv]

Paul is just incredible. You enjoy listening to him when he is speaking as much as when he is singing.

[@Kpictures_NYC]

He’s so incredibly talented. And to be a 1/4th of the greatest band ever is amazing.

[@sbwrocks866]

Paul McCartney forever and The Beatles forever the best band of the World

Sorry but i cant tell if youre kidding

[@gillmacgillechiaran5651]

I was 10 years old on a February evening in 1964, watching the Ed Sullivan show when the Beatles took the stage. My life as a kid in Kansas was at once enriched and illuminated. Memories from before that day are in black and white, and after, they’re in color. I collected all their albums, first on vinyl, later on cassette and CD. Now, thanks to iTunes, I’ve got them all and regularly jack the volume up to ten. I can imagine my dearly departed mom, yelling from the heavenly dimension, “turn it down!”

[@raedeankendall9169]

All his surgeries were made at his young age when this fake McCartney entered to replace real Paul after his car crash.

I agree with Jimmy. I saw Paul McCartney in concert last year, and it was a fantastic experience.

Paul is My favorite Beatle. I went to his show last year and was one of the best shows ive ever been. Such a great positive energy!

Paul came to my country and had a free concert a few years ago. 16 hours of waiting for the show to start were absolutely worth it and I would do it again. I'm so happy I got to see the man play live, now I can die happily.

[@amayacai]

He came to my hometown Nagoya for the first time, it was in 2018 and back then I was an poor university student. I had no money to get a ticket to get in to the stadium so I came close to a door and listened him sing very carefully with my ear on it. When me and a friend of mine was doing that poor stuffs, some old madams came to doors next to us listening him like us, ears on the door. It was a very cold day. Such a wonderful memory he gave to me. Thank you Paul.
