      Most Beatles songs don’t have that much or complicated chords. But they did it in such a special way that only they could do. The Beatles aren’t my favorite band, but they sure were the best band in the world.

    My wife and I have been fortunate enough to see Sir Paul three times, so for those of you that have seen him live you know this totals somewhere between 7.5 - 9 hours of live performances. And we still haven’t heard all the songs we’d love to have heard him play. How many other musicians have a catalogue that deep? It’ll truly be the end of an era when Paul joins John & George on the other side.

      His keyboardist Paul Wickens pulls a lot of heavy duty stuff behind the scenes. He runs a lot of stuff through his keyboard loops to make the band sound bigger than they are.

    I remember David Crosby of the Byrds saying with admiration that this track was beyond the Byrds' capability. I think he meant the vocal arrangement and the Byrds were famous for theirs. It's certainly one of my favourites. I can play over 60 Beatles songs but I don't do this one as it's so hard to play it with the riff and sing it on one guitar. I think Paul found it easier to play rhythm than bass live. It'd be like patting your head while rubbing your stomach - though he manages it on so many. Genius.

All the times I have seen McCartney criticized for his 'music hall' [which all The Beatles grew up with and loved] but he was the only Beatle who was ever criticized for it....and then you take it back to 'Minstrel', accurately in my opinion. What a great comment.

Joni Mitchell a REAL musician called Dylan fake and a plagiarist.. The Rolling Stones REAL musicians regularly disparaged the Beatles Ginger Baker a REAL musician basically said all rock drummers specifically Moon and Bonham sucked. Being a REAL anything does not mean you understand anything about other peoples talent or worth. Usually personal opinion form everybody's opinion rather than anybody's expertise. Many great musicians believe the Grateful Dead are groundbreaking amazing musicians while many others feel they are just mediocre musicians who just diddle around on their instruments.With REAL musicians on both sides of the argument who is right. Also people who have never played an instrument in their lives can have just as valid and relevant opinion.I think your opinion is based on the fact that you consider yourself a REAL musician whatever that means and what people to believe your opinion is of more value to others instead your comment makes you sound like a pompous clown

    I have sneaking suspicion this guy has sung this at least once or twice before.
    I could be mistaken though...

    I was around when the Beatles came in 1964 and I am a musician from then to now. This is Paul, he did not die. You can not fake his voice. All the Beatle cover bands have tried and it can't be done.I suppose you think John is still alive living with Elvis.

      I have been looking into the PID thing for about 2 months now, and I have come to the conclusion that it's not true that Paul died in 1966 nor was he replaced at anytime.
