Part of why this works is that Paul really is so positive and down for everything that I have no doubt that he would really react exactly like this to All Star.

​@@eggman5106 Not personally, but I've got it on good authority that he's quite dismissive, self-centered, and rude even to those close to him when out of the spotlight. One might say fair enough for a Beatle, but he's just a person at the end of the day.

Probably due to the ‘novelty’ nature of some of their biggest hits & the fact that Steve Harwell doesn’t look or sound like a typical front-man.
