    Officially announced today, Paul’s lost 1961 Bass has been found and returned after 51 years. May not have been in a castle somewhere but still a great story and incredible it got back to where it once belonged.

    It’s hard to judge character in a pre recorded interview but Paul seems like a genuinely chill cool guy.
  • I love to hear Paul talk. Hes so interesting and very personable. He's managed to find a way of enjoying his fame whilst truly staying very down to earth.
  • @Diego-sb4br
    "Is Paul McCartney happy?" "Oooh, Yes, at this moment. Don't get me mad !" He's so cute

    "I am Paul McCartney" is the biggest flex of all time.
  • @Durwood71
    Paul McCartney has literally dreamed up some of the most iconic songs in modern history.
  • @Bob-yw7pc
    I worked as a stagehand on a Paul McCartney show. After hours of performing, he stopped on the way out, to gesture to the stagehands, and applauded us for setting up the show. He forever will be the most classy of rock performers of all time. Id love to just hang out with him for a day.

    "When did Paul McCartney join the Beatles?" "I should know that."
  • He is so... idk, pleasant to see and listen to! And so young without playing young. Nice and light hearted humour, interesting history behind the answers. Loved this QA session.
