That was just way to cool. I still remember exactly where I was and what I was doing when the news came on the radio that JL was shot dead… It's just like years later when I woke up and came into the living room. My now, late wife, Julie, told me to look at the TV. They were announcing that Mr. Steve Irwin was killed by a freak accident while shooting an episode to his series.
Two very different people but very much the same and pioneers in their field. Losing just one was horrible to think possible, but losing both in a single lifetime was a terrible tragedy in my opinion. I grew up with the Beatles and started playing the drums by listening to Ringo when I was 8 or 9. I also had a keen interest in snakes when I was 7, (1963), and the first book I ever bought was on snakes, when I was 8. My first book report in Junior high was on Carl Kauffeld.
I continued to study these animals through books and in the field up to this very day. All through my early years and well into my late 20's, I would go out on one or two-day excursions to catch, photograph, and release snakes every chance I got.
It was sometime in the mid or late 80's that I first saw a TV show on a Public Television channel with a young guy named Steve Irwin. I couldn't believe there was someone else out there that was actively trying to change the poor reputation that snakes have had to endure. Steve Irwin was showing the true facts about these beautiful, important animals and proving that the way they were depicted on TV was wildly misleading.
From a young age, even I would try to educate anyone who would listen about these animals and then here I am, watching this Steve Irwin guy doing exactly what I had been doing! Well… John Lennon and Steve Irwin may not seem to have much in common to very many, but if you take the time to listen to what they were both saying, you may find that they carried the same message and they both managed to get it across to a lot more people than I ever could. FWIW, Rich
Absolutely awesome! I wish I was there for those performances. I wrote a book for Paul's Birthday, "Chasing Rock History Treasure" It's a fictional offering about a team on a mission to locate and recovery the famously stolen Demo Tapes for Band on the Run. It's published on Amazon but I can't figure out how to get it to Paul.
Am I imaginng this: I know Paul is left handed but his fingers don't seem to match the music. This song is predominantly A-D but I don't see anything he is fingering to match that. Theres a post keeps geting in the way and it's hard to see but look from 1.04 to 1.09 for example. His fingers don't move. He seems to play the semitone scale at 1.14 but so does that guitarist at 2.10. Which one are we hearing?
William Shepherd was working with The Tavistock Institute and Theodore Adorno. "Paul" was an adequate musician, John a passable guitarist. Neither great, George Martin liased with Adorno. Having talked to various boyfriends, manager Epstein was suicided to keep it quiet. The Stones and the Beatles were helped and enhanced to effect societal change by a Fabian think tank, The Tavistock Institute. There was always too much political capital to be gained in popular music, particularly in reshaping society. The CIA promoted and invented rap to exacerbate gang culture in the US
God this song is so incredible. A 1968 John Lennon poem (essentially) combined with Paul McCartney's sheer bloody force of nature. Their final act of combined genius.
the little wave he did before Johns image disappeared was so heartwarming. He finally got to say a proer goodbye to his best friend, after all these years. RIP John and George. Long life to Paul and Ringo ❤️
Still trying to get my head around this… the bloke performing here is 80 years old. Watched it on BBC Iplayer last night, was in tears come the end. A phenomenal performance.
I've seen clips of this part of his show dozens of times now, even got to see it happen in person on this tour, and it NEVER gets old.
So many emotions wrapped up in a single performance: joy to see Lennon and McCartney get as close as they'll ever get to singing live together again; the sobering thought of John not only having now been gone for almost 42 years, but the fact that Paul is now literally twice the age John was at the time he was murdered; amazement to see one at 29 years and the other at 80 years side-by-side.
I can’t even describe how emotional it was to be in the crowd. I was in the queue for coffee the next morning and just started crying when I remembered this from the night before.
With John Lennon. Poor bloke died in !980. Listen to I Found Out, a track on Plastic Ono Band. Lennon's first album, one of the lines is I've seen religion from Jesus to Paul. Check it out and research. There might be a lot to question, especially in the world we live in now.
The "Ive Got a Feeling Take 1" on the Rooftop is my favorite, and one of the greatest live performances of all time. Paul's vocals are unbelievable. John, George, & Ringo are all killing it per usual, and Billy Preston adds so much with his keys.
To hear Paul still crushing this song, at 80 nonetheless, is so amazing to me. 53 YEARS LATER
I bet Paul would do anything just to duet with his friend one more time for real, this is the next best thing we have. Thank you Macca for being a living legend, and rest in peace John and George forever in our hearts.
Que momento más lleno de nostalgia y de sentimiento. Los más grandes John y Paul. Por siempre y para siempre lo mejor de toda una era.
Que lindo homenaje a su amigo John
What the fuck, this is amazing
I got a feeling!
Wow.. Hermoso… 😢
Actually 80 yo….??
I hear this song because manga called Beck
Amazing Paul!!

Apenas regreso a internet y Paul McCartney ft John Lennon
Cuánto tiempo pasó? Lol
Te amo Paul
Te extraño John
We miss you John (George too) but Thanks God for keeping Paul and Ringo alive, we're blessed

He brought his old friend with him to play glastonbury🤗

Paul McCartney could walk out there and proceed to shit on a plate and I would be in awe. He's literally a music God.
Amazing!!! Brought tears to my eyes!
Fucking hell this is awful 😆😭😂 he’s always been an overrated singer/musician, but it’s definitely time to retire now.
I think they should form a band.

Madonna ma come ti sei ridotto

No. I'm not crying. You are crying.
I love you Paul ✋🧡
The best duo in pop history.
This 80 year old man has spent his entire life bringing us beautiful music about peace and love.
It's missing but it's John. We have this. We will always have this.
If I am even breathing at 80…pure gold for my man Paul.
Paul sings and moves better at 80 then I do at 24

Meanwhile, Biden who's 79 can't string a sentence together without saying something completely absurd.

The best song writing partnership ever

This was fabulous 🎸
Dang, I wish he was coming to my area!!

For those who tragically died before they see the greatest tragedy of humanity. Rest in peace. ✌️🕊️🙏
80 and still doing it. My remaining uncle is still inspirational. Those people were born when we (they) were at the top. So let's do it now.
Aku tak sanggup membayangkan bagaimana rasanya menjadi Sir Paul … SANGAT MEMBUATKU MERINDING !!!
Emotionally hit to tears by Johns appearance. (What A loss it was to all of us that he was assassinated).
The "Ive Got a Feeling Take 1" on the Rooftop is my favorite, and one of the greatest live performances of all time. Paul's vocals are unbelievable. John, George, & Ringo are all killing it per usual, and Billy Preston adds so much with his keys.
