Hey Mary…your dad is one of the greatest men to have graced our planet. Is easily one of the most talented and gifted songwriters in HISTORY. There will be statues of this man, and his name ranks amongst the greatest artists of all time like Beethoven, Shakespeare, Mozart, Picasso… He is a living legend. And people will speak of him 200 years from now and beyond!! Your dad and family are a gift from heaven. Thank you!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@neeni4]

To her he’s just ‘dad’. Sans the other stuff.

[@AT-yg4nk]

@@neeni4 I know, and that’s crazy that she’ll never look at her dad quite the same way as the rest of the world. Sean Lennon said that he didn’t understand what the big deal was about his dad until after his dad’s passing and he became older. He knew who The Beatles were but he didn’t understand their significance, their legendary status and how truly famous they were.

[@neeni4]

@@AT-yg4nk kids don’t need famous parents, they just them to be there. No one’s parent is anymore special because of fame or money. Same goes for a famous kid. Daniel Radcliffe (for example) has his feet firmly on the ground because his folks and family never tolerated any notion that he was ‘special’. I think Brits and Aussies are generally much better at remaining normal people, whereas Yanks get worshipped to the point of mental illness and drug addiction.

[@leecoryell7282]

1975, Atlanta, GA., USA - WINGS OVER AMERICA - I and my best friend met the band (minus Paul, Linda and Joe) at dinner atop the hotel next to the Omni Auditorium. Later at the concert I vibrated from my cheap assigned seat walked around the floor near the stage and saw a whole aisle of empty seats. Being a curious and knowledgeable Mcgeek I noticed that the filled row just in front of the vacant one sat P & L's whole family+nanny holding future famous celeb designer Stella McCartney. So, I quietly slipped into the empty seat on the aisle just behind the beautiful interviewer you're watching right now. Long comment longer, I knew why the seats were empty and I now had a 'PREMIUM' seat to enjoy the show. Interestingly, Mary had more fun interacting with me than her boring old parents. Of course P & L were watching us. I knew there had to be other body guards surreptitiously checking me out but no one said a word. I was conciously redirecting other fans from the primo aisle I was borrowing allowing full access to Mary and her friend (daughter of Howie Casey, horn player in the band) and rest of the family. "In my green metal suit I was preparing to shoot up the city" but really all I had was my brown velour jacket and pocket camera ready to shoot up the show. The two girls were actively amusing themselves acting out for attention. While I was distracted watching the band Mary secreted the camera from my pocket and began taking photos of me. Some girl heading toward the stage with a bouquet of flowers was stopped before she got to the stage and turned back my way. I asked for one of the red roses but she nicely handed me a pink carnation. I broke off most of the stem and asked Mary if she would hold it in her mouth. Then I asked for my camera back - And if you can't guess what I did then you've either stopped reading or not really familiar with earlier P & L solo work. The photo I got was Mary mimicking the cover of 'Red Rose Speedway'. Believe it or not this is the short version - the best is yet to come. As alluded to earlier, all was being observed. So the first time the bodyguard became visible he quickly asked me to huddle up with ALL the kids, Heather, the babysitter and Stella. Then. . . THEN, he told us all that I, . . . I? was cool? . . . and that he had been called to help clear off a bunch of jelly babies an enthusiastic Beatle freak had thrown onto the stage. The last thing he said to me was "guard them with your life". All I could think was, uh, DUH! . .ok. I don't think I aged a day after that moment. WAIT - there's more! I was now in the super premium VIP section between nanny, Stella and Heather standing on the seat next to me. Mary and her friend were sitting in front of Heather's legs and I was standing next to Heather straddling the arm between seats. Most fans were on their seats by now and I was conversing with a seemingly very adult Heather talking music that she liked and what her favourite Wings song was ('HI, HI, HI'). The same kid that made Ringo laugh during 'Let it Be' was making me laugh as I was guarding her life(?). Really? - how absurd, ironic or, or just a lucid maniacal dream. I mean deep dark and hypnotic.49 years later was I Swiftinized? - whatever - Anyway, I was wearing a unique, demitasse ring a recent love interest had given me so I slipped it off and showed it to Heather. She was genuinely interested and showed sincere curiosity towards it and even tried it on. It fit - perfectly! Of course I asked her to keep it. She was profoundly real about it and showed no discomfort at a random guy hanging with her and her family - GUARDING THEIR LIVES - Not exactly sure whether it was dark or light, but it was magical. It's now 2024 and they're all still alive, so . . . Job well done - unless, I actually fell asleep after watching 'Wingspan' and this was, really, all just a dream. I guess you'll never know - but, 'I Will'. After the trance and concert ended I found my friend and went to the restaurant/bar on top the hotel where we ended the night with most of the adults in the band partying, especially with, now fallen rock stars, Guitarist extraordinair Jimmy Mc. and Denny Laine. Or, maybe ot was an inner delusional fantasy tale I'm spinning while rocking around in a home with other folk rocking around in our chairs who desperately need someone interested in their almost forgotten memories and dreams. Rock on sweet dreamers. Stay 16 - Thanks for the memories Real Cameras and other legends in their own time. Lullabyes in the beginning to lullabyebyes at the end. ∆nonamelee

[@taketwo_duo]

I think anyone can write a song if they tried (as is proven by some of the artists out there) but writing a good song is the difficult part. There is only so many chords, as Paul himself said when looking at the piano, in front of me is all the music ever written. A good melody is the hard part. Paul has a knack for good subject, lyrics with chords and melody and hence he makes it look easy. I don't recall any two of his songs sounding the same.

Have you seen the original long version? It doesn’t feel a bit like that. It’s just that she’s quite reserved and his natural personality is as well. I think she’s trying to be more of a journalist. Not sure why it would need to be rehearsed. Just consider that they are both thoughtful and reserved and you might have a different viewpoint. But definitely this version is too chopped up

This is from a much longer interview which is not chopped up like this. These are nice little snippets. But having seen the long version, it’s strange. That one came up in our feed so maybe I can find it in the history and post it here It really feels much more like a conversation. I think his daughter is just trying to step out and be a bit like a journalist but of course the relationship is so close that …. It actually took a bit of time before I realized it even was his daughter. I think she just has a reserved nature and actually he does too and Linda-even more so.
