Maggie, boa noite. Qual dos beatles tem a voz mais bela na sua opinião? RINGO STARR_PHOTOGRAPH JOHN LENNON_STARTING OVER GEORGE HARRISON_GOT MY MIND SET ON YOU

[@nedeast6845]

It is why we love live music, and go to pubs to listen to bands and singers....if they forget the lines, we join in, because it is about having a good time singing a song:)

[@DerekDerekDerekDerekDerekDerek]

Please stop that horrible accent! No one sounds like that! Especially not Paul!

[@deannabayless8025]

And 32 years later, his keyboardist (the bald accordionist here) is still with his band, and the blond guitarist here is with Ringo’s current band. And Paul and Ringo themselves are 81 and 83. They don’t stop making music.

[@bosullivan5462]

That's Paul WIx Wickens!

[@aBeatleFan4ever]

You asked if it was a chart topper... It was released in early December of 1965 and was number 1 in both the UK and the US... as well as Australia, Brazil, Canada, Holland, Hong Kong, Ireland, Netherlands, Norway, Rhodesia, Sweden and Wales. It was a worldwide hit.

[@Frahamen]

I have a thesis about Paul McCartney that, in my opinion counts for him alone (maybe Ringo too, but not really) and it's the following: Paul can walk to any professionally active musician, no matter what style, age, instrument, or sucess level, ask them if they want to make music together, they will say yes. No exception.

[@justarandomveryintelligent8934]

Because its paul fucking mccartney! The man is a living music legend! If he asks you to hop on one foot with one hand playing a cymbal, while playing the triangle with your teeth you fucking do it!

Paul is also incredibly disarming to others he works with. They are usually nervous and say he has them completely relaxed and having fun in a couple of minutes. Then they make incredible music together. He's a truly special guy in so many ways.

[@henrikharbin5521]

I trend a small ELCA Lutheran church where I have been a member for roughly 8 years. Since I'm legally blind, there are some hymns that I don't know some of the words to. What do I do? Don't tell anybody, but I sometimes swap in the words "boing" or "boingy" for words I don't know. I have also replaced all the lyrics in "Joyful, Joyful" with the repeated line, "I am really very sorry, but I just don't know the words", which fits the cadence and melody perfectly. I ding all of it quietly so I don't mess up anybody else or make them laugh :)

[@JohnWSElek58]

Originally a double A side single with Day Tripper, topped the charts in the States and UK and lots of other places 1965. Love John xx

[@aBeatleFan4ever]

Paul's "Unplugged" performance was recorded on January 21, of 1991... so Paul was 48 years old in this video (as he was born on June 18th, 1942).

[@briandonovan1584]

I think you can find this show on KZbin. Its really informal and an enormously good time. Paul is just the greatest and he has always adored the fans. The fun he always has is infectious especially when in front of an audience. Paul has always said performing for an audience is his favorite thing and it shows.

[@Nothin-but-the-blues]

At 8:09 you can see his former wife Linda (the women with the white shirt and the tambourine in the background) who passed away way to soon in 1998 from breast cancer.

[@briandonovan1584]

You seem to care so I won't go to hard but shouldn't you say his "late wife?" Former just sounds like an ex. Rubs me the wrong way but I still love ya.

[@brianfisher6165]

[@Silverbell_TTV]

The man has written so many songs, a lot of times when he takes requests during his performances, he has to say, "Right just uh...remind me how that one goes." xD

[@daletwin1]

I am also left handed but play bass and guitar right handed including this song.which I enjoy playing. It actually was a big hit for The Beatles. I have seen Sir Paul play this song on stage acoustically with no other musicians several times and he got all the words right every time.

[@agnetesorensenelbom5085]

[@peterbooth793]

The reason that Paul McCartney exists is to make beautiful music 🎶 🎵 😍.

[@Proudmommie2005]

He's made mention a few times that many of the older songs are harder for him to remember. He's made so many beautiful awesome songs for so so so long, I don't think anyone could remember them all lol

[@terminallumbago6465]

He also didn’t perform them for a long time before he started again. I remember reading that he had to re-learn a lot of the Beatles songs to perform them.

[@patticrichton1135]

Yes, after all artists that wrote a song doesn't go around listening to their OWN recordings (when they haven't been touring for years OR haven't PERFORMED a particular song of theirs for years, like we fans would play their records. He has often said he watches the front rows at his concerts, if he finds he is having trouble remembering the words, cos his fans (like me) ALWAYS know ALL the words! I LOVE that!

[@NigelT57]

If you go and watch the original 'video' of this, you will see three minutes of one of John's favourite tasks in life - making Paul laugh and corpse during miming. :)

[@patticrichton1135]

Yes that is hilarious! there are 3 versions of that "We Can Work it Out" video and it's the third one that is seldom seen, where Paul completely dissolves in laughter at the very end, it is SO FUNNY! I LOVE that version the BEST

[@ivylasangrienta6093]

I've listened to the Beatles so much in my life that I can remember the lyrics to all their songs. It's a blessing and a curse...

[@i_can_c_u_2295]

I don’t know the words exactly, but I notice if something sounds wrong. I am now 25 and will listen to the Beatles until I know all the lyrics.😂

[@patticrichton1135]

Same for me Ivy!

[@angielofton6372]

The part of the song that changes meter was written by John Lennon. Paul needed a middle 8 and John had a song fragment. They often wrote like that. Also, the Beatles loved 3/4 time, especially John. A lot of their songs even started out in 3/4 time and morphed in the studio to 4/4.

[@markydh83]

Although the idea to change the beat was George’s.

[@daveman_50]

It's not really a change in meter. It's four quarter note triplets occurring over two bars in 4/4 time.

[@B.R.0101]

@@markydh83 Probably, George suggested the change meter also in Don't Let Me Down., but I think at those times, about this song, they were just JL and PM to manage their songs

[@ed.z.]

It’s a chart topper. Paul and Ringo are left handed.

[@BartdeBoisblanc]

That is the thing with the music of the Beatles and other progressive rock bands. It's the creative juxtaposition of different styles and motifs that make it unique. 🐄

@@garybeemer2339 No it's a proper left handed guitar, before he could afford one he would play a right handed guitar upside down.

[@patticrichton1135]

why would that be amazing, since he IS Left handed, it would be natural. What is amazing is the many Paul impersonators in Beatles Tribute bands who are RIGHT handed but take the time and trouble to learn how to play the bass and guitar LEFT HANDED so the illusion is more believable. It just doesn't look right if a tribute band has a right handed "Paul". Looks weird with all the guitars going in the same direction.

[@stanzaloan3454]

Nice time changes, makes the song more than just melodic. Very cool. I admire the confidence to come out and just wing it and not get all up tight about forgetting some lyrics. It makes the whole thing seem more human to me. Robot music will never touch this for authenticity.

"Even Beatles are human." -in the liner notes to an Unplugged compilation CD that my mom has that includes this song.

[@mikenolan8044]

1. And that fortune made without owning copyright to many of his songs (long story and a rather sad anecdote involving Michael Jackson). 2. Early 1990s MTV's unplugged series featured some of most unforgettable and amazing performances from rock artists - (started with impromptu performance by) Bon Jovi, Clapton, Nirvana, Kiss (maybe one of their best shows), Springsteen, Pearl Jam, and many others. Eh... Another great TV program forgotten and destroyed to make room for more plastic pulp. (Tearful sigh)

[@kattyfanclub]

Paul McCartney can work it out! May I present another fantastic singer? 伊卉儿Katty. She has the voice of an Angel. She is so good I had to make a KZbin channel with her music. She sings in Chinese so people won't get the lyrics. But if they just sit back, relax and adjust to her wavelength after a while they will get what it is all about. -Not vocal fireworks, but handling of the softest of tones. If you want to present to the world a unique young artist that "no-one" ever heard here is the chance to do it.

[@patticrichton1135]

NOT true, he didn't forget them on purpose. He has said many times in interviews that he often watched the front rows of people at his concerts when he forgets the words because the fans know the words better than he does. Think about it...even though he WROTE the song, he has not been listening to his own records as much as we fans do, and singing along with them. Plus it is one of those songs where the lyrics are hard to remember WHERE they are in the song. SO he didn't do it on purpose.

Both Paul and Ringo are left handed. Both had to learn on right handed instruments. Paul would, a teenager, turn the guitar upside down and play ... Self taught. Now less than 1 in 10 people are lefties so odds are against a group of four having one left paw. The odds of 2 in 4 AND being The Beatles are mind-bendingly long. Another really unusual thing about the fab four.
