Carpool Karaoke With Paul McCartney

[soundboy]

From The Late Late Show with James Corden

This is a MUST WATCH for anyone of our generation and even those younger to youngest. So very cool to see the public reaction to a 70+ year old musician. The magic never left. It's amazing because I was a huge Beatles fan but I never listen to the stuff anymore because I am so burnt out on it, but watching this made me realize what an impact these guys had on me and the rest of the world.

What a trip.

Coincidentally, in Friday's mail, I received the 3 disc DVD boxset The McCartney Years.

James Corden is one of a kind. Some of his shows ARE brilliant and this one was NO exception.

Love Live Paul.

Loved it. Paul and the Lads meant so much to the world for the past 50 plus years. They brought so much happiness and great music to an astonishing number of people. Now, where's The White Album in surround?

To be honest, the Beatles were a little bit before my time. But the way I listen to music has always been chronologically backwards, so the Beatles has become one of my favorite bands of all time. I have also been listening to the Beatles Channel on XM Sirius radio during my daily work commute, and the more I listen, the more I am interested.

My mom and I were watching Paul's Carpool Karaoke segment last night, and despite the fact that she's suffering from dementia and don't even know her own name half the time, when she saw Paul on the TV she went, "Hey! He's one of those four guys with the guitars!" LOL

Absolutely wonderful (tears in my eyes). Thanks for the post!

His voice may be starting to go, but Sir Paul's still sharp as a tack. God Bless Him.

The very fact that Sir Paul is 76 [b.1942] and that he's still touring is something of a miracle.

Wonder if he ever had throat surgery [like SO many of his younger peers have]?

Keep on truckin' Sir Paul. Your fans still adore you

Paul just turned 76....I hope he can stick around for another decade...even though the Beatles greatness isn't disputed...the fact that Paul has been so active since the group disbanded.... has kept the Beatles legacy intact...and even spread to younger generations....I don't think he gets enough credit for his post Beatles work...Wings was a pretty good band..plus his solo ventures...that video says it all...the way he interacts with people...but more importantly how they show their emotions when he sings....yes his voice isn't as strong...but people just don't care...and when you see all ages singing along and some crying that's the strongest endorsement any performer could ever hope for...

Paul will always be 'the cute Beatle.' A cute story: an artist friend of mine who attended school with Paul's widow, Linda [nee Eastman] was walking down the street in Manhattan when a limo pulled up. The door opened and Linda asked her old high school chum to step inside and she was thus confronted with Paul sitting next to Linda in the limo. Flabbergasted, my friend said My God, it's Paul Mc.....to which Linda hushed her up and said Paul hates to be fussed over.

That very same humility was aptly on display when Paul returned to his Liverpool roots on that fantastic James Corden carpool karaoke video the other evening!

It's been a very long and winding road for Paul but he's always managed to walk the straight and narrow.......

This was so fun as my wife and I took a trip to Liverpool last September and signed up with the National Trust (yes the same one mentioned in 'Happiness is a Warm Gun!') and got into Macca's childhood home. So fun to see it again on the video. They told us that he and John would sit near the fireplace and that is where they wrote over a hundred Beatle tunes.
