I had the pleasure to meet James a few years ago after a show. He was down to earth and a pleasant young man.

[@ili626]

He has a pleasant matter-of-factness about him.

[@lindaschuler9888]

I think he sounds like his dad and that’s amazing

[@ata5855]

his music seems to have a 90s vibe

[@SuperQuater]

He's not a slob he's a nice person and he may be on the spectrum which can make people seem aloof

[@kayjorgensen6489]

I think he is on the spectrum

[@militzamadrid462]

...he Is just a real person, probably looks are not so important to him.

[@Black.Sabbath]

Still loathsome. He could make an effort.

[@RJLKMRD]

McCartney's song ""Glisten" is a masterpiece!! There will be a rediscovery of this man's material, he's too good!!

[@RJLKMRD]

my opinion here James is the most talented McCartney kid... and other than Julian, in my estimation, he's the best songwriter of any child of the Beatles

[@suechun8871]

He like his Dad has his mother watching over him and I am sure she is so happy for you...Let it be...you are such a gifted person

[@ritorto]

This boy needs to crack a smile

[@yell50]

I get the impression he don't like people much.

[@Black.Sabbath]

​@@yell50I get the impression he doesn't like anything much.

[@yell50]

WOULD you crack a smile when you are trying to promote your album only to be asked about your dad it does nothing for your own self worth.

[@allymayful]

@@Black.SabbathJust wondering if you heard his music???? Maybe l am wrong, but l have a feeling he really likes music - and that he really likes writing and singing it. Cos he does it pretty bloody well wouldn’t you agree.

[@Black.Sabbath]

@@allymayful Nope.

[@RJLKMRD]

hey James, I promise you you're going to be extremely successful at some point, in your own way, a couple of your songs are extremely good they're going to be rediscovered, I can tell, that "Ballerina" song is spectacular off of your album "BlackBerry Train" and the song "Angel" is going to be rediscovered too, a bunch of your stuff is going to be rediscovered

[@gabbyflores7416]

Sweetie and in his on style of music his fingers moved and he just kept talking, didn't know he had his group need more advertising💝

[@therealgrapesoda]

i hope he does more interviews like this. very respectable.. his last few interviews have been awkward and have sounded a little rude even though i don't think that was his intention

[@tosinmcboy]

James he is my favourite person

[@lizking385]

Looks like Vivian Stanshal, one of his Dad's previous identities.

[@ralex3697]

Hard act to follow. Music would not be my first priority if my dad was Paul McCartney Good on him though, seems like a nice man

[@dmlevitt]

hmmmm. weird.

[@yoya4766]

There is a paradox here, for 30 years he was kept out of the media and here he has to promote himself on it. His formative training is to be guarded. So he looks uncomfortable in every interview, has no enthusiasm, gives brief answers and rather snotty with Krishna GM. Painful to watch. I think its sad for him, but also the other talented people who don't get his exposure. He acts entitled to have prime time national news channel interview him. Paul doesn't have this attitude, he is very giving, highlighting the difference between a self made man and their entitled offspring. That said musically James is a genius, he just needs a bit of energy/enthusiasm/spirit/oomph and he'll rise to the stratosphere.

[@Black.Sabbath]

Agreed with everything up until the last sentence.

[@allymayful]

As much as l would prefer not to discuss it publicly - did it ever occur to you that James is probably autistic - cos you described it perfectly - in your ignorance.

[@tanyafrida7380]

Trying to live up to the Fab Four? No one can do that. It's best to do you, Boo.

[@Black.Sabbath]

3:55 I wonder why

[@barbaralies]

I suppose musical genius is not hereditary. James seems nice, but not ultra-talented. There was such absolute magic when the Beatles came together. I don't know if anything like that will ever happen again. It certainly won't in my lifetime.

[@yoya4766]

You said it when you said the Beatles came together. James is solo which is very different and difficult. He has immense god given musical talent and guts too. The amount he does just out there on his own, is astonishing. Furthermore he's a peaceful silent soul. So he does a lot with no fanfare.

[@RJLKMRD]

his voice is spectacular, if he just used it.. it seems like his vocals are understated on purpose in contrast to his father

[@sorenutube]

Sons should get together, just for the fun of it. Don´t forget the suits!

[@dedrajade5394]

And take that bow in the end… what are these sons waiting for?!!

[@Black.Sabbath]

Depressing

[@raquelmorales774]

Honestly,between a guess""and some other ,chit chat,I don't get him nothing like his father,sorry🙄

[@captklaw6246]

WOW!!! He is so exciting!! Very outgoing! Far from being a snob!
