Our greatest living songwriter and arguably the greatest songwriter ever.

Now whisper words of wisdom and Let It Be while you hear the blackbird singing in the dead of night while you dream about yesterday and love being such an easy game to play.

Happy birthday to the living king of music.

Saw him when he was 75. Old man put on one of the best concerts I’ve ever attended.

The real Paul McCartney has been dead almost 60 years.

No love. Down voters must be Ringo fans.

There is no end to what we can do together
There is no end
The willow turns his back on inclement weather
And if he can do it we can do it

That solo stuff made my early years beautiful.

The story behind this seems very plausible

I've always maintained that the day we lose Paul from this realm will be the day that the music truly dies.

Going to see Ringo in North Little Rock this fall. He turns 83 next month and looks in better shape than most 33 year old travel ball dads.

Seen him 4x over the years.

You’re gonna enjoy it. Ringo brings a a lot of energy and his All-Starr Band is always going to be made up of people you want to see.

Calm down. The world didn’t stop turning when Chuck Berry or Little Richard died.

Saw him last year on tour. To quote the last words he sang that night:

“And in the end
The love you take
Is equal to the love you make”

True.

But Paul is different.

No he’s not. Actually the Beatles probably wouldn’t exist without those two.

Brian Wilson is a legend.

He's not in Paul's tier, though. Nobody is. Paul is in a tier all by himself.

And Dolly Parton is America's greatest living songwriter.

Berry was a huge influence on both Paul & John I'll give you that.

I think they still would.of been around though. Maybe not to the level(greatest band ever) that they reached but still viable.
