Live Q&A Paul McCartney with Tim Minchin announcing new OneOnOne tour

[@debradunn109]

Paul McCartney still turns me on more than any other musician in the world. I still love this man for over 50 yrs. I know I'm not alone in this ladies.

[@weez246]

No, you're not...he was the first guy I ever felt the hots for lol!

[@keepinitkawaii]

Is it weird that I'm 23 and agree with you???

[@fionaforder767]

Paul McCartney is left handed like me, he restrung his guitar because of it.

[@thanosforever]

I'm 29 and I love Paul Mccartney! He's absolutely charming.

[@thesilvershining]

I love Paul McCartney more than myself, lol.

[@Ghost-m23]

He's such a strong man! He's lost Linda, John Lennon, George Harrison, George Martin, his mom and dad, and he's been through so much through The Beatles and Wings! He's still going! No one is still going at this rate and age! Love you Paul ❤️

[@shernizaahmad9423]

Queenie Bear that what people don't realize about him. im always so proud of him, im a younger fan from a younger generation. i've always liked him being professional and brave. and ppl just misinterpret it.

[@igormeltser4446]

Darth Wrengar stones still going

[@vincenzobonadonna4556]

This was years ago, and is still true

[@jackwhitbread4583]

Sir Barry Gibb still going strong despite the fact the majority of his family is gone, his youngest brother Andy. The Gibb twins Robin and Maurice, he only has one sibling left and still he goes on. The Bee Gees were just as much of a giant than Sir Paul, they wrote Barbra Streisands biggest selling album and they wrote the biggest selling country song of all time.

[@MoonLight-np4wx]

@@eljohndoe6109 And we all handle it differently. Some people don't handle it well, especially when you've lost as many people as Paul has. And I think it's respectable that Paul has indeed handled it well.

[@patriciaburke2401]

I am 68 and have loved Paul since the first time I saw him. He is such a gift to all countries. I love him even more today. He is so talented and just as handsome as ever. He is just as beautiful on the inside and so real. God bless our Paul!

[@soinorman]

'Unbelievable' Tim........ Some nice answers.........keep going Paul, you are a world treasure.

[@ColoredBars]

soinorman The world needs him to keep going. One of the few things that makes me happy is knowing that both Paul and Ringo (and even Pete Best) are still out there.

[@thesilvershining]

@@ColoredBars Same. Paul recently said he feels like he’s 25 again so I hope that’s a good sign! I don’t think Ringo has aged a bit in 20 years LOL

[@RossG257]

You can tell how much Tim loves Paul in this, puppy dog eyes and giggling like a school girl haha

[@mokamo23]

yes, but he was so unorganized in his questions.

[@PianoDanny]

Yeh he should've had the main ones ready at the iPad so there weren't the awkward silences. Still, great interview...

[@gardensofthegods]

What's really interesting is I think he looks a bit like Paul's grown son.. sort of even the same coloring if I recall.

[@JekaterinaZyryanova]

Yes, he's fanboying :D

[@girlfromgermany]

@@gardensofthegods James looks like a young Paul with blond hair. And a rounder face than Paul himself. So it's completely different than Tim Minchin.

[@markyparky967]

Lovely interview! Tim is obviously a big Beatles fan and is loving talking to Paul but he's so intelligent that his comments and questions are valuable.

[@siberianhuskyaussieadventu3308]

This was the most refreshing McCartney interview I've seen in years. His interviews are usually the same ole, same ole. Great work

[@davecostello560]

One of the better recent years interviews I've seen with Paul. It helps to have some interesting questions and Tim's humour/ musical perspective to keep McCartney engaged and off autopilot!

[@annmarie8483]

i can't get enough of Paul's interviews. i know the answer to almost every question because he's asked so many same questions and he always tells the same stories but that's why I'm kinda surprised why I'm still interested to hear them for 48383 time. he's just so charming, magnetic. you just can't stop looking at him and listening to him.

[@olskzeri2723]

If you want to listen PAUL interviews listen to interviews before december 1966. Every interviews that comes after that is William. He knows NADA about the early days.

[@gabrielal1364]

@@olskzeri2723 I think you're wrong. He has talked about his early days in Hamburg and everything you need to know about his early days. I recommend you buy The Lyrics when he tells his life since his childhood to nowadays. Stop spread misinformation.

[@annanikia7949]

You said it!

[@NaaHva]

​@@gabrielal1364The publishing house who published "Sir Paul's" 'The Lyrics', are the same who published 'The memoirs of Billy Shears'.

[@stevenmckenzie2741]

Paul does look much better letting the hair go more natural. Such a down to earth person. This Tim person I don't know of but I will be checking out his stuff. He not only was in awe of sitting with Paul but came across as so respectful and knowledgeable to Paul. A nice young man.

[@papercup2517]

I agree about the hair. Yes, do check Tim out - a lovely, ridiculously imaginative and musically talented young(-ish) man.

[@weez246]

Yes, Tim is a very decent guy with a very strong social conscience. He's also a phenomenally talented musician, composer and satirist.

[@bronwyntully6058]

Steven, Please check out Tim Minchin, unless you're strongly religious!

[@robyngleason7971]

I love Tim Minchin!!!

[@SeasonsChange14]

Once you discover Tim Minchin, it is all too easy to become obsessive whenever he sings, acts, or does a comedy/piano routine. The man is magnetic and charming.

[@mayemcdonald9111]

This was a wonderful conversation. Thank you for sharing it. Paul is so sincere and down to earth. ♥️🙏🏻💋

[@mark4262]

My respects to Tim .. I know he is unique yet he is interviewing someone he respects which makes this interview unique. Wow huge clap.. well done Tim and Paul at his best.. well done to both 👏

[@deborahstanley7901]

I love Paul McCartney and his music. He is such a fine person that warms so many hearts with his songs 💕

[@brez9091]

This kid has a promising future, for sure. The boy on the left, wearing the white shirt.

[@brez9091]

Adrián in the middle I never said a word about the guy on the right. I couldn't be bothered. He said more than enough himself.

[@TelecasterLPGTop]

I used to not like Paul way back when there was the John vs Paul crap. I guess I was influenced by the media and their beat ups but now I think he's really great which comes I guess from just listening to him in interviews such as this one. I'm getting on , I'm in my sixties and Paul really impresses me, hell he's in his seventies and apart from a few wrinkles he's better now than he ever was, while I'm falling apart, too much having fun but eventually we pay the price.

[@mmb1572]

The Beatles were the greatest and most influencial band in the world.

[@mmb1572]

How amazing, 50 years later, and generations later, that people are still so amazed by them.

[@FilmflickerCinema]

"We were a great lil' band" - Paul McCartney haha. So humble, yet aware of his history.

[@olskzeri2723]

"humble" should not be applied to that man.

[@allymayful]

@@olskzeri2723 Absolutely it should be. He takes nothing for granted.

[@RudiKelle1]

Thanks Guys ... best open up I've ever heard from Paul . No promos , no bullshit , just pure musicianship . The gift of Music has no equal - for the writer and for the listener . Long Live R+R .

[@annanikia7949]

This is a fantastic interview with an icon of songwriting and performing. So many of us just can't get enough of Paul McCartney! He represents the highest level of artistic talent and beautiful, positive human spirit.

[@thesilvershining]

Honestly. He’s such a brilliant fascinating man!

[@Deliquescentinsight]

Always good to see Mr McCartney, a man of true talent and natural charm- being from his part of the U.K myself & growing up with The Beatles I feel as if I know him, I know, deluded really.

[@Deliquescentinsight]

Good on ya mate - thanks for the reassurance, yep what a band, what a decade the 60's were eh?

[@spinoviosion]

living legend and an inspirational artist and human being!

[@gabrielal1364]

It's really moving when Paul talked about the most emotional experiences of fans. You can notice how his voice shakes a little bit so you can understad his stories are true and the experiences were very touching for him. It's really precious he appreciate his fandom and you can watch a thankful Paul with everybody who is still support him. A very wonderful conversation, you can get tired of listening Paul's stories. I could listen him hours just talking. He's really a wonderful human being in all sense and i appreciate living in the same period of time with him.

[@monicamiguez3134]

Paul....I will always love you..for the rest of my life....

[@annmarie8483]

Tim looks so in love here (17:48) and that's the exact facial expression I'm watching this interview with

[@MorbidBatwing]

Awwwwwwwwie 🥰

[@MusicMan73790]

We all understand his GREATNESS, words will never be able to frame it properly--but for Paul to be so humble, year after year, question after question, tour after tour, only puts an exclamation point on how incredibly unique and special he is. His solo material is unbelievably amazing. Only Paul, George, John and Ringo, could follow an act like the Beatles...it figures. Generations from now, people will be studying The Beatles and Lennon/McCartney/Harrison songs. THANK YOU!

[@SavageSPK]

Great one. I can't imagine my life without his music. Those boys were a gift to the world, that can only be repaid with "the love you make.."

[@GlennGuyTravelPhotographyGuru]

This is incredible news. I saw Paul perform at the MCG last time he was in Melbourne and I'II definitely be front and centre for his December gig in Melbourne later this year. He's the best and I feel so fortunate to be able to make the show.

[@DylanBrisbane]

Got my ticket today for Melbourne! 3rd row!! So overwhelmed honestly, never thought I would get the chance to see Sir Paul, especially since the last time he came to Australia was before I was even born.. Can't wait! Good luck to everyone else getting tickets :)

Admirable to see history through the eyes of Paul MacCartney. The serenity with which he talks about the past is lovely. Photographs transport us, they are a direct connection with the emotions experienced. wonderful

[@catladycb814]

My favorite McCartney album is the solo album the one with the cherries on the cover. It means so much to me. Also, the White album and Ram. My husband and I were at the show in Miami. It was so incredible I will never forget it!

There are some beautiful songs on McCartney (1st album) - such a sense of warmth and love pervading it. I love listening to it.

[@jeffstratton6503]

Tim Minchin seems in awe of Paul, and who can blame him !! ……Macca is probably just a ‘rock music dinosaur’ to some young folk, but he must be the ULTMATE rockstar dinosaur because it was he and three other Liverpudlians who inspired so many impressionable teenagers to take up an instrument, to sing and to perform, and of course to compose. Interesting also to hear Tim praise Paul’s lyric writing because TM is an exceptional songwriter himself. And it was so refreshing to hear many different questions to the usual boring ones I’ve heard ad nauseam before. Much of Paul’s success is surely due to his easy-going diplomacy (taught to him by his father), his humour and his genuine respect for his fan base…..Ringo is also a really down-to-earth character who is brilliant in interviews with his charming wit. In fact, the VERY BEST interview I’ve ever seen with any of The Beatles is this 51 minute on-stage interview (kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKXNcqJpq5l5n9U) with Dave Stewart which is fascinating because the questions are from one muso to another muso, and Ringo’s recollections and funny inside stories are compelling for anyone who is an ardent fan of the Fabbers !!

[@dedevidal1209]

Sorry but Paul is not a rock dinosaur...he's still roaming the earth ;)

[@jackwhitbread4583]

Tim is no slouch either you know, composed two major Broadway musicals, successful musical satirist, his own TV show which he wrote, directed and starred in,voice actor, master of the piano and an incredible activist

My mom's innocent crush and mine talking about so many things which we both loved (She was a professional musician (amazing drummer!!!) and I inherited no talent from her but the love). She has been gone for five years but I can hear the conversation in my mind that we would have regarding this interview. Brilliant and makes me smile.

[@brucetowell5208]

He'll be 76 in a couple of weeks, he needs to get his hair cropped short for God's sake. Folks in their 70's do NOT look young again with long hair, infact it ages them.

[@sratus]

Bruce Towell Don't worry about it Bruce, folks can do what they want

[@olskzeri2723]

His NATURAL self has nothing to do with Paul McCartney. N O T H I N G. The reason he stopped dye his hair, is because when he became whitehaired he didn't need to dye his hair anymore, like he needed to do in the past because he didn't have the same haircolour as JPM.

Thanks for putting this up as I can't get the Facebook video plug in to work on my old PC. Having gone to college with Tim, I'm well aware of what a huge Beatles fan he is. This would have been a big thing for him and he handled it well. McCartney usually drags out the same old stories and we got something a bit different here for a change.

[@weez246]

Yes, there was a bit of banter between two musos who clearly respect each other - and both share a laconic, deadpan sense of humour that shines through this chat

[@yes2day100]

He drags out the same old stories, because they ask him the same old questions. Tim asked some fresh questions, so he got fresh answers. :)

@@yes2day100 ^ Exactly.

[@dogmatil7608]

Rubber Soul is my favourite Beatle Album

[@papercup2517]

Seems you're in good company, then! :-) Funnily enough, I didn't like it that much when it first came out, and although charmingly melodic, it always seemed to me like a slightly lame halfway house between the early brilliant rock n roll/ pop sounds and the later brilliant, increasingly psychedelic/mind expanding stuff. But I guess now with distance, I can really appreciate it, in part for those same reasons, - I mean because of its transitional nature. (Hope that makes sense.) :-)

[@keithnewman8280]

Memories from Australia. Surprised Paul didn't mention the Norman Gunston interview from the Wings tour. Linda was wetting her pants with laughter. A pity he's skipping Adelaide where the biggest public turnout in the day, EVER for The Beatles, outside Adelaide town hall.

[@ceedoubleyou]

geez. I hope I'm able to buy tickets for his Auckland show, saw Paul when he last came in '93 and again recently in Paris in '15, where he performs for 2hrs solid. There was a DJ who opened the show for approx an hour who played all Beatle and Paul's solo songs, my wife commented that if he is on any longer, he would play all of Paul's song. During Paul's live performance, he didn't play any one of the songs that were on prior to his show for his whole 2hrs.

[@gardensofthegods]

cee doubleyou Was it boring.. the part with the DJ.. it sounds as if you were a bit disappointed
