What Paul McCartney Taught Me About Songwriting

Today I'm talking about how something Paul McCartney said in 2002 dramatically shaped how I've been writing songs my entire life. I call this "Writing Unlockable Songs."

The clip is actually from "Back in the US," because I couldn't find a clip of the "Party at the Palace" performance - though this clip is from the same year.

* Apologies for the out-of-focus camera, but out camera is at Mark's so we were unable to film this as we normally do.

You'd think that people would've had enough of silly love songs.

Educational now too, love it. Right I’m off to listen to The Beatles.

Nobody knows who I was a year ago, and they still don't.

I personally perfer the sONg
BLUE BIRD when Paul McCartney, AKA Billy shears, was with WINGS.

It's WAY more ROMTIC and lovely
to listen to. I NEVER liked black Bird
I don't care for the chords I find it to be boring it does absolutely nothing for me.

As to compare to BLUE BIRD.🐦
