I will never stop believing that Paul was the driving force and strongest talent in The Beatles for the subtle complexities in hidden gems such as this one.

[@Manwe_SandS]

Wow. The song is really complex. That’s why the Beatles is not “just pop music”.

[@BritishBeachcomber]

Paul and John grew up in musical families. But their technique grew to a new level when they met George Martin. I believe that he taught them music theory and technique, moving their music up to a new level.

[@lennonladroma593]

When john mastered the clawhammered picking style, paul on the other side creates his prefered hybrid style of it. Such a genius man.

Galeazzo you are absolutely right it is a very complex tune . It sounds like two guitars are playing in this song. A beautiful under-rated song !!!

[@drvee1983]

When Donovan taught John and George " Travis picking " in India, Paul didn't care about learning it. He continued playing with his thumb and other 4 fingers strumming the way he always did. He still plays that way today. " Blackbird" was a brilliant exception. Although he never has read music, his chord structures are complex and unique. Thank you for uploading this. Great job.

[@drmichaelshea]

[@DavidMartins1]

Paul is such a musical genius. Thanks for sharing this.

[@arnesaknussemm2427]

At last , finally, a video which does this song justice. McCartney’s unique style is very rarely replicated as it is here. Even he is on record saying, lots of people play blackbird but nobody plays it right. It’s the strumming pattern in particular which he is referring to.

[@bassesatta9235]

Nice to see we both play the middle 8 the exact same. I think the closest/accurate tutorial was from Shut Up And Play. He plays it very much like you do

Paul is in another league, naturally a complete genius. He deserves more credit, which is a funny prospect considering he's a f***king BEATLE! It's complicated, the massive fame overrides his amazing talent

[@IamMagPie]

This is fantastic! I discovered The Beatles as a child, and fell instantly in love with their music and the band's members. It motivated me in buying my first guitar and learning to play. My goal was to learn "Blackbird" and "Mother Nature's Son", among others. I can do them fairly well, but this video takes it to a whole new level. In my view, McCartney is the greatest musical talent ever, and noticing all nuances and details as shown in this video takes a great ear and a lot of talent as well. Thanks for sharing your wonderful work.

[@ronnienaidoo3249]

AGREE !!! McCartney the Greatest !!!! but then Lennon too !!! Me too, I was hooked to them since I first heard "Love me Do" and the rest is history. My problem is that I always compare everyone else"s songs with the Beatles & obviously there's a big gap. I love listening to the "White Album". Thank you for your comments.

[@markdickens6426]

I've been working on Blackbird for months. Must have played it a thousand times by now, and every time I do, I'm struck by how he handles the complexity with such economy. Never more than two fingers on the fretboard at any one time, yet he produces a masterpiece of harmony and euphony. True genius.

Io aspetto il giorno in cui Paul telefonerà a Galeazzo per chiedergli se gli mostra come faceva Junk. Suono i Beatles da 30 anni. Li suono anche dannatamente benino, grazie a ore e ore di ascolti maniacali con una chitarra in mano. Ma ci fosse una volta in cui questi video non mi danno qualche trucchetto in più... In ognuno viene svelato SEMPRE almeno un trucchetto che mi fa dire " ah sì, questo probabilmente fa funzionare la canzone meglio di come la suono io!" Galeazzo è l'unico da cui mi faccio dare Lezioni di Sua McCartneyità (e di Beatles in generale). Grazie infinite amico!

[@Goralyna123]

It’s hard for musicians of today, to understand the incredible impact the Beatles had on music, thought and society. Their ability to absorb and reimagine what they were learning, as they were exposed to different styles of music, is unparalleled. The fact that they were technically brilliant musicians, singers and harmony singers and musical arrangers, as well as great songwriters, is what really set them apart. They also appealed to a broad spectrum of people. So glad I was there to experience it.

Written in India, but this is the music of the Scottish highlands, ancient songs of Scotland / Northern England. The greys and greens of that sodden countryside ❤

[@martifingers]

In a sense Paul's technique here is a variation of the "Carter Scratch" where Maybelle Carter would play melody along with a strum on the treble strings. She invariably played the melody in the bass of course. I am not suggesting this was his inspiration - probably Donovan was the immediate influence.

[@TheBeatlesVocalHarmony]

It reminds that in some way.

[@drewcampbell8555]

At the end chord Paul plays a D chord on guitar, and the Brass section plays a C chord. . Hence a C in the D chord changes it to a D 7 chord ! A Beatle fact..!!

Let's not forget Donovan. During their trip to Indian, he was able to teach the Beatles about more guitar playing skills. Which lead to majority of the acoustic playing styles we can hear on the White Album.
