Losing my mind over the version of Let Me Roll It playing during the end credits of Man on the Run, wdym this is the 2010 remastered version, it is CLEARLY NOT. I have never heard this chorus with only Paul's vocals, WHICH VERSION IS THIS I NEED IT 😭😭

On my way to the Bootleg Beatles. Happy birthday George 🤍

Watching footage of Beatlemania, you can see in the fans’ faces that the euphoria and intensity sometimes turned them into true portraits of “scream queens” from horror cinema. Here I play with what would happen if I took that idea to exploitation movie posters, using song titles from the band and twisting their meaning.

Paul Mccartney on the terrace of the Albergo Duomo, June 24, 1965

[undying-love]

"John was really my only male friend,"

"John was my first friend who wore glasses."

"Whenever other people [take off their glasses] it always reminds me of John."

"John was the only person I knew with an aquiline nose."

"John was a very different kind of guy to the other boys I knew."

"Back then, chocolate was really something. Most boys would break off a little square, but John gave me half his bar.”

"John was the greatest man I have ever known."

"No matter how anyone reminds me of John, they’re not John."

"I love him and always will."

Q: Who is your hero? Paul: John Lennon.

do u think he even realised he did this

i saw a post once pointing out the similarities between the two songs and theorising that that "let me roll it" might be a response or reference to "I wanna hold your hand"

i can’t think about (just like) starting over for too long or i will legit start crying because if that song really was about paul and a rekindling of his and john’s (creative/romantic/whothehellknows) partnership, which really all signs are pointing towards being the case, this makes the context of john’s death at that point in their relationship even more painful. if there is ANY truth at all to the sandford bio anecdote about paul locking himself into his studio after john’s death and listening to that song on repeat it would simply be devastating beyond comprehension

[wearing-raincoats]

everything that happened to paul after john’s death in the 80s is fucking mind-boggling in terms of its sheer scale of psychological violence, like imagine your complex ex-lover-still-soulmate being gunned down in the street, then having a camera shoved in your face about it and being dragged through the mud for saying something weird while in shock, THEN having the entire rock journalist world erase your contribution to the partnership and frame you as coworkers who barely liked each other, AND being asked disrespectful questions about his sexuality at a time when such revelations would effectively destroy both of your reputations, oh and also having to justify your own existence because people are straight up writing that you should’ve been killed instead. if any of that happened to me i would literally start killing everyone and then myself like there would be no one left alive after my swift and brutal revenge i’m so serious

growing up is realizing the beatles r as good as everyone says they are
