Sir Paul McCartney's career was celebrated by some of rock's biggest names as part of the 33rd annual Kennedy Center Honors. Macca was recognized alongside TV giant Oprah Winfrey, country legend Merle Haggard and others by President Obama at the event.
McCartney was treated to a rendition of 'Hello, Goodbye' by No Doubt and a duet of 'Maybe I'm Amazed' by Foo Fighters front-man Dave Grohl and pop singer Norah Jones. Later, Aerosmith's Steven Tyler, who was asked to perform by McCartney, did a medley of songs from 'Abbey Road.' James Taylor and Mavis Staples closed out the show with 'Let It Be' and 'Hey Jude.'
December 5, 2010.
My mom was in a retirement home, they had a section where the folks stayed that had dementia. I went in there one day and I heard the Beatles playing, and, those folks were dancing with joy and abandon. The nurse told me it was their favorite part of the day. I could have cried 😢 😭.
I am an ex-drummer. Ringo has been my hero for over 50 years. I have dementia too. One of the side effects of dementia is heightened emotions. As I watched this, the tears were streaming down my face. How lucky we are to have lived in this era !!!!
That is gonna be me in the old folk home when I hear a Wayne mixtape song! Gonna get called to judgement hype to Weezy!
That's great may she always remember!!
@@campbellarmstrong2134 may God bless you!!! Stay strong!!! Praying for you!!!
All my loving! Stay strong...I lost my husband to bone cancer 30; yrs ago ..Gog bless the survivors!
As much as I adore Queen and Freddie’s voice. I am absolutely convinced with all the melodies that Paul was the 20th century’s Mozart ❤
Amen
Now and then 2023 * * * *
@dunewalks5988, when I was college I took a course called The History of Western Music. It covered all the classic composers. The last person studied was Sir Paul.
He really was the voice of our generation, no other musician grew and got so much better with age.
She came in Through the Bathroom Window, the groupie anthem.
11 years ago!!!! 2024. Im watching and am blown away.
Yesssss ❤❤
Me too
I’m here in 2024. This grand performance gets me every time. Perfect, classic, elegant, Paul.🎶❤️🎶
Me too❤
Today
Paul McCartney has brought more happiness to more people than anyone who ever lived, and the music he made will live until the end of time.
Paul Mcc and The beatles and Wings is so f..... good and al that music he and Al the band Paul have play with is stil playing in al radio and al new streaming system in the wold, Itäs a maising howe he have make al wonderful songs, and i agrre with u abuot happiness, thats so f..... right. :)
I can think of 3 men who brought plenty of happiness, too. The BeeGees.
Man, McCartney and Lennon wrote masterpieces, probably never to be matched again, but that Golden Slumbers medley is one of my all time favorites, and Steven Tyler absolutely, flat out, owned that stage and nailed it!
Yes. Fantastic performance.
Golden Slumbers is probably my Beatle´s song, Tyler rised to the challenge!
Oddly enough, Lennon thinks the Abbey Road medleys are garbage...
@@MozTheBoz Lennon was good for the group until 1967 then.......a disaster.
@@robertoamenabar9970 LOL, stupid comment of the year!!
Damn this has me sobbing. I genuinely feel privileged to be living at the same time as Paul McCartney. One of the most talented and influential musicians to ever grace this earth
agreed
Of pop music. But the world, popular music, has forgotten Mozart, Beethoven and the hundreds of masters of centuries past who theorized and created music ITSELF, who pop artists would be nothing without.
t the moment I can think of 2 pop artists who have not forgotten 2 of such classical Masters. Barry Manilow and Lady Gaga. I do hope you know which of their songs included intros of classics.
Carlos composto it’s called “getting better” :)
Kevin Zhang no one has forgotten Mozart or Beethoven mate.... the fact that you can say those names and everyone knows who you’re talking about proves that they’re still plenty relevant in our society.
Dave Grohl absolutely sang and played beautifully. Steven Tyler felt every note and kicked everyone's butt! James Taylor and Mavis were the icing on the cake!
Tyler felt the pure energy and soul of good music.. Great music.
Yes, have watched it often as I tend to do with Kennedy Honors, this is my personnel favorite second is Adam Lambert singing BELIEVE, to cher!
It doesn't matter whether it's The Beatles Wings or solo Paul McCartney is just simply a genius musician songwriter. Genius legend icon.
Sir Paul's face when James Taylor was introduced.... respect...
he was James Taylor's mentor
True! One of them: George Asher became his manager. George Harrison played (uncredited) on “Carolina in My Mind,” in which James sings of a “holy host of others standing around me" - the Beatles. George’s “Something” was inspired by James’ demo song “Something in the Way She Moves.” (End of trivia. Sorry.)
@@eduathever getting better

@@salicemccool9186 good stuff!
Sir Paul McCarthy,
I'm 62 and I have stage 3 Cancer. I'm not looking for sorrow, I'M fine.. thanks to You ,Ringo John and George...God bless them! Your music helps ease the pain cause I was 5 yrs old watching Ed Sullivan. Brings back happy times...my 2 older sisters playing their 45 records Great memories . I've given up my last rights to my Lord and savior. God bless you Paul... love this part
And in the end... the love you take is equal to the love you make.💖
Richard, how are you now?
lots of love to you, Richard ❤️
@@Ariel-T-Friesner i asume dead
Bless your soul Richard, may you always have peace
How are you, Richard?💗
No matter how many times I watch this, it never gets old. Lifts my spirits.
Oprah looked like she'd rather be _anywhere_ else.
Why can’t it be like this? People coming together singing happy joyful? Why does there have to be so much hate? I see this and I am just filled with joy.
You are not alone, by a long shot.... keep the faith..Cheers.
Wow Steven Tyler brought tears to my eyes with that medley.There is no greater living legend than Paul McCartney
Sunking 2424 I know that’s right !!!!
So right Sunking
Steven Tyler brought tears to eyes because he is an amazing singer. Paul wrote beautiful, meaningful lyrics but he can't sing as good as ST. Paul's lost his voice (2020) but ST can still sing his heart and soul
@@TheGreatPresenter Paul is 80 yo. Most men won't even reach that age lol..
@Sunking 2424 Bob Dylan is tough competition tho
Why don't they put this on TV around the world, way better than watching the Golden Globes or Oscars or MTV Music Awards.
Dee Zee I don't know about around the globe but my wife and I watch all the Kennedy Center honors on TV. Just google it to see when it is on, usually about a month after the actual ceremony.
They televise the Kennedy Center Awards.
Usually between Christmas and New Years
Does it usually air on PBS in the US?
Dee Zee..... YES!!! I agree........
Man. This is so cool. Steven Tyler nailed it. Tears in my eyes.
Golden Slumbers,etc, is a "waterworks" song
I agree, I was worried he would not do a good job with Beatles songs but he did a great job. You can tell by the look on Oprah Winfrey's face she wasn't enjoying it. Facial expressions tell her everything, it's obviously not her type of music.
Muito lindo ❤
Como se llama la canción que interpreta STEVEN TYLER
Como se llama la canción que canta STEVEN Tyler en el minuto 14, 05
I'm crying right now.Noone lives forever but this man has a long and winding musical history that cannot be matched.Love you and thank you for blessing us with your gift,Mr. Mc Cartney.
A penny for Paul's thoughts when he looks upwards with eyes watering during Let it Be. So blessed to be on this planet at the same time as this musical genius.
He probably thought of his mother. The song is about how she visited him in a dream.
I had the pleasure of watching Paul live over ten years ago and even though Let It Be was never my favourite Beatles song,I found myself with tears streaming down my face mid-song. It’s a powerful song.
blackbirdflyyx, it is. It’s funny how sometimes a song never resonates with you until you’re just having a certain kind of day. And then you just get it!
Let It Be was written about his mother Mary,,, she passed away when he was very young, he once said as a Beatle, She would be so proud to see our success, I believe he was looking up at her thinking, For You Mom....
Too bad Paulie was surrounded by all these dark demons
IMAGINE PAUL'S MEMORIES ...THE DAY TO DAY, DETAILS OF THE BEATLES.......AMAZING..NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW...
Except for Ringo...but I know what you mean...
@@pixiewings21_9 Lol.
Paul was replaced
Maybe a book - or 20 - of his will one day be published. But he has given quite a few interviews, at least.
JeremyB No, he was not replaced. C’mon, enough of that delusional bullshit, FFS! !!!!!!!!!!!
I haven't watched this since it was first broadcast, but still, I'm in floods of tears. The Beatles' music was my era and I loved them. Never managed to see them in regular concert BUT I was on the street when they performed on the roof in London above their Apple company offices on Savile Row. I worked around the corner and when the music reached our offices, we thought it was someone with a large transistor radio (it was the '60s after all) but someone came into our office and screamed "The Beatles are playing round the corner". We thought he was kidding but when he screamed "Let's go" - we all ran and I still cannot believe it. Thanks to all four of The Beatles, but thanks even more so to Paul as "Wings" was just another continuation of brilliant music for my 20s. 💜💜💜💜
Oh my gawd, thank you so much for sharing that memory! I've always wondered what it must have been like for the people on the street, and how long it took them to figure out it was the Beatles (since none of the songs had ever been heard before).
ya ya ya tear flood!
Beautiful Paul. Beautiful beautiful Paul. "And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make." 💐🙏🏽❤️
Thank you, Mr Steven Tyler, for nailing it! 💐🙏🏽❤️
NAILED IT!!! I agree. Not quite the same without his performance; the crowd gave him a standing ovation and he deflected it to McCartney
@gdaniel5508 Yeah - I thought that was pretty classy. It was a great performance. I don't know how Paul wasn't a ball of sobbing tears. I sure was. 😢
14:50, even Paul MaCartney is a fan to the point that he couldn't resist but sing along to his own songs.....GOD BLESS HIM.
I love payl
Mavis Staples singing "Let It Be" is a full circle moment. Paul McCartney wrote the song after his mother (who had died 10yrs b4) visited him in a dream sensing his stress & told him everything would be ok just "Let It Be". Chills. Great story Sir McCartney. ✌🏾
Sir Paul
I was to 14 years of age when I first saw, "The Beatles", on the "Ed Sullivan Show,"...1964...such a long time ago, and it STILL makes me cry!!
I'll turn 73 this June...
She actually died more than 10 year before he wrote "Let It Be".
@@mrfester42 14 years. so what.
@@johnmoreno7664 I watched them on Ed Sullivan in ‘64, as well. It was a healing experience for me as a kid after 11/22/63. That little B & W TV brought the world in.
I LOVE this presentation to Paul McCartney! I've watched it a million times! Steven Tyler is outstanding! Thank you Paul for being the music we live by!!
I'll never be able to let you go, Sir Paul. I've loved you since I was twelve years old, I'm 72 and a half. Stay with me Paul, you can't imagine how important you are! Your music reaches into my heart, my soul, and every fiber of my being! And, I don't want to let go! When Steven Tyler sang tonight, the tears were rolling down my face. I wish Linda were here! You are a true man, Sir Paul, you loved your wife, all your children and your very dear friends. And, the World wants to love you back.
Hello dear, thank you so much for that lovely comment. What's your name and where are you writing from?
Man... i'm gonna cry my eyes out when Paul is gone ...
I know I will too. Music has been such a huge part of my life and Paul ranks right up there as a favorite!
Don't even think about that. BUT 'in the end the love you take is equal to the love you make' - imagine HOW much love he will be taking with him - all the love he made for us...
He will NEVER be gone.... He has sorted that out !
me too!
I can't imagine a world without Paul.
Every single person in that audience has personal memories of the Beatles' music. That, in itself, is remarkable. When they were catapulted to world wide attention on the Sullivan show, nobody knew the impact these four young men would have in five years time. They changed music, fashion, youth culture and inspired countless creative people to embrace their collective muses. There never was, or ever shall be, a phenomenon like the Beatles.
Hello my friend James, nice comment but with a bit of flaw. You said that the Ed Sullivan show catapulted them to world fame is absolutely wrong. They invented something which No American artists could have down. Before they came to the US they were already famous all over the world. Even tiny countries as Nepal were listening to their music and African tribes were dancing of the music of the Beatles. But it is true that in America they faced RACISM because of stupidity which still today are thriving. I remember when American youths burned records or magazines about the Beatles. “God if they would know “ what we Europiens knew already. Sorry to say, but in the US they had only misery, Lennon was killed, but Paul could manage to draw almost two million people to the Red Square in Moscow or The Rolling Stones did the same thing in Cuba for free! See the difference? Metallica did a concert there to and become rich after that event.in the American mind the first point is, how big is the profit. Music or other art is just secondary. That is my own life experience about the US because I live there.
@@bubamaranovichok4901 Chill...
So funny 🤣😆
0:00 well said
@@bubamaranovichok4901I think you’re confused about a few things. The Beatles weren’t facing racism in the United States, they were facing some self-righteous, religious groups who were furious with John Lennon because he compared the Beatles to Jesus, said they were more popular than Jesus. It had nothing to do with John or any of the Beatles being full of themselves. Beatles records and albums were burned. I’m 69 years old and was a fan from the moment their music was played here in the United States, and then hit the Ed Sullivan stage. And there was enough greed to go around, not only for the Beatles, but many bands. Beatles were hit especially hard though.
Just. Pure. Joy. That's All.
I owe my 50+ years as a hardcore music fan and musician to the music of this man. So much inspiration, love, joy, sadness. Thank you Paul.
How can our world be such a mess when it is filled with immensely creative beauty as this? Makes my heart soar, music does.
Music will save the world one day ,you watch
❤
North America, Europe, Oceania, Japan... Maybe WE could get along?
Because we all thought looking for easy ways to go through life. Now we have AI telling us how to be human lol funny isn't it😢
I can imagine this must have been very emotional for Paul, he's watching a reflection of his life going from his childhood to where he was then in less than 5 minutes. He's a legend, my biggest hero and the reason I picked up a guitar :)
1964 was a GREAT year for the WORLD...!!!
I was thinking he must be longing for Linda to be there with him at that moment.
@@johnmoreno7664 1963 was a great year for the world, with the first two Beatles albums and several spectacular singles. The US discovered the magic of The Beatles a year later, but better late than never.
OK, so I cried through the whole thing. I've loved Paul since I was four years old. What a gift to the world.
I have loved the Beatles forever and I still do. Baldwin gave a great tribute. A beautiful moment.
James Taylor has the most mellow, melodious voice. Paul obviously loves him, and when JT starts harmonizing with Mavis, Paul lights up with a smile, what a wonderful tribute, no one deserves it more.
Paul and the Beatles have a long history with James -- James was signed to the Beatles record label Apple Records in the late 60's. He had a song called 'Something in the Way She Moves' from which George was inspired to write 'Something' using that line.
This had me crying like a baby. What Paul, George, Ringo & John have done for us can't ever be thanked enough. The Beatles music is so strong that a tribute this great or an interview which takes the time back to their years, gets me heavy hearted. I couldn't breathe for a few seconds while the few parts especially Carry That Weight. I can only say *THANK YOU* to them! ✌️❤️
I've seen lots of concerts
The rolling stones clapton ac/ dc kiss eagles you name it
I saw the stones and they blew everyone I saw away
Then I saw Mr. Paul Mccartney
I cannot put that experience in words, a reporter was outside of the venue. The stories, the talking to the crowd.
The rolling stones need to call themselves the greatest ever
Others call the beatles the greatest ever
There is no question about it. The beatles are the greatest ever
you got me tear up, this music show me how love and humanity must defeat the demonic monsters who rule this world
❤
I hope you enjoyed the remarkable bittersweet music video of the last new Beatles song, "Now and Then". It was, indeed, their final bow. I weep every time I hear it.
@@ibeetellingya5683 I find the song very touching. Those lads are everything to me.
I'm so Blessed to have seen Sir Paul and Sir Ringo in concert. I am a flower child and baby boomer, so I was one of those screaming girls each time I watched the Beatles on tv, or listening to their lp's. Thank you for changing the world with your songs and music.🎶🎹🎸🎸📻📽📺☮️🌻✌️🇬🇧

Watching in 2024. One of the best Kennedy Center Honors shows and it’s for Sir Paul McCartney! Well-deserved indeed!
Steven Tyler is the ultimate frontman! he ROCKED this!
@Alden Buyer Nope. He nailed it. And everyone loved him.
Alden Buyer...get a clue...Steven Tyler DID rock the house, and Paul loved it...you could tell...anyway...who are you, some kinda music critic!? And, by the way...Gwen Stefani was fabulous...just ask Paul...
*PashasMom Meezerlover* ~ you got that right! Everyone sitting was rockin' in their seats, which by the looks of things, they were itchin' to leave!!
*bill stahlhood* ~ Yeah!
He killed it
"The love you take is equal to the love you make." - that says it all right there.
Nobody's ever said this truth more simply, sweetly, or better.
Tattoo worthy, my friends.... 🎸
And he ends his concerts with The End which is so appropriate and breathtaking live!
Love love this set of performers!
It doesn’t get any better than the Beatles geniuses
I’m coming 76 and unfortunately well on my way to the exit door but as I listen to my 60’s and beyond soundtracks of Beatles favourites it takes me back to happier times and I am comforted. Thanks boys.
Look at Paul mouthing the songs, didn't know he was a Beatles fan.
Good one!!!! Lol
They had provided lyric sheets to all the folks in the balcony.
good observation....
That's funny, cos John Lennon thought Paul was a fanny
Mattattack 501 You don’t know what John thought. They were like brothers and brothers do occasionally fight.
Steven Tyler... What an absolute BOSS. That's a performance.
Paul McCartney has always been special to me since I saw him on Ed Sullivan's show!! That was 1963!! I am now 65yrs old & still love Sir Paul McCartney!!!!🤟🤟🤟👏👏👏👏💗💗💗🕊🕊🕊
Thank you so much for the love and support. What is your name and where are you writing from?
What an incredible tribute to a man who changed the world, quite literally.
"Na na na na na na na..." Right there in that moment, there are no politics, no separations or injustices, just one beautiful song uniting everybody.
This is the great power of music!
The best feeling I’ve ever had
Same
The Gift of peace and of a strong goverment. The Beatles were from one of the poorest areas of the UK. If Britian had followed the US to Nam then they would have all be drafted and instead of Nah Nah Nah, it would napalm, napalm, napalm. Thankfully the UK goverment at the time had the sense not to follow the US into War, unlike recently!
hiraethchild What a Meaningful Comment
Steven Tyler is one of best performers of all time, he is one of the best singers of all time and he can sing anything at anytime, he is phenomenal and he never disappoints and I love him, he is the best.
if that's right then why he's never been honored at the kennedy center honors ?
@@nemlou It's a travesty that he hasn't been honoured. He is amazing and multi-talented
You're right!
Steven deserves his own HONOR. He's just GREAT!
When he was introduced, I was hoping he would sing exactly what he did. It was just amazing.
So, you're saying you like him? Yeah, he's great!
God bless America🇺🇸 making such an incredible effort to give such respect to a lad from Liverpool🇬🇧
One of my favorite singers Sir. Paul McCartner, I just saw this publication from 11 years ago and, as I was overcome with emotion, my eyes cried, it is an honor to have in this world a Genius Musician-Singer-songwriter like Paul, and for Him all my respect and admiration!!!👏👏 👏
I first saw the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan show when I was 15. I was hooked!
My friends and I learned all their songs in 4 part harmony. I went in to teach music forty years, using many Beatles’ songs on my programs. They changed my life fir the better! Thank you Paul. I admire you more than I can express.🙏🏼
I saw them on Ed Sullivan when I was just three years old. Their music seemed to race at me so fast that I knew right then and there that I wanted to be a singer and musician so badly I wanted to burst! It hasn’t dimmed to this day. I’m still playing clubs and I’m a happy guy.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

The Beatles were the beginning of another music era in history that will never or can be repeated
End of story.
If you grew up on or about that era of time,you know what I mean
So true. This is fake America Bull shit. But the Beatles sold their souls themselves. Pity.
The Beatles are Europe.
The USA has other musical traditions.
All is left are the recorded original Beatles songs.
Dean Osterman spot on.
Dean Osterman. I was 12 when they were on Ed Sullivan. The world changed forever.
If there was a R&R Bible, the Beatles wrote it, every word and every note. No group will ever even carry their guitar cases. You have to be a hard core musician to understand. They just took that music, still in it's infancy and said, "here's how it's done", now go forth and multiply it" and the music world was never the same.
Oh I did. And yes, I certainly do know what you mean.
I was at a dorm party at Penn State in the late '70's, and they were playing Beatles music. Everyone was singing along, except me. When asked why I wasn't singing, I said, "I don't know the words." I was 5 or so when the Beatles were popular, and living in Germany. My parents listened to elevator music, even though they were only in their early thirties. Many years later, while out one night, my dad said, "Boy, that's a really great song!" I had to tell him it was the Beatles, and the song we were listening to was written by Paul. We both ended up missing something really special, earlier in our lives. Glad this music will last forever.
I CANNOT WIPE THE SMILE OFF MY FACE…THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES!
wow cant think of a more deserving rock star, never any drama or criticism of him. truly a great singer and writer of all time. so loving, fun, and giving of himself...….love u Paul
itschallenger Well, I wouldn’t say that, literally after The Beatles broke up, Paul was framed as the person who broke up the band... along with Yoko of course😂 Then he fell into a depression, but Linda helped him get back up 😂😂😂
@@milesdelis that's how I heard it, true or not. Thumbs up
@@milesdelis Yeah Paul was wrongly framed as the bad guy, when he wasn't one and had bias against him. What OP said stands true. He's never really had an real criticism thrown at him (that wasn't biased) and he never speaks bad about people.
You’re doing something right when your own music, sung by someone else, can bring a tear to your eye.
Fantástico incrível meu ❤esta muito feliz com a homenagem a Paul McCartney 🎉❤Orós CE 🇧🇷
Paul McCartney is a GLOBAL treasure! I love his music.
The way they held on to that B flat chord at 19:27, with a backup singer wailing above it, and then just thundered into Hey Jude... Goosebumps. Powerful performance.
Yeah, that got me..
That wasn’t a backup singer that was mavis staples singing …
@@nico114334 I mean the note that begins at 19:31. Mavis is not singing that one. It's the backup singer in the back.
B flat right into F major. Awesome performance..
how outstanding was Dave Grohl's vocal?
It was great and that song is incredibly hard to sing well !!
Mad respect!
@@bobdiepold2122 How many people know that Norah Jones is Ravi Shankar's daughter?
Maybe I'm amazed is his most beautiful love song for linda
@@donnaone1nine don't forget her sister Anushka.
With George Stevens Jr in charge of this production, it could NOT go wrong. He was founder of the American Film Institute, creator of the AFI Life Achievement Award, and co-creator of the Kennedy Center Honors. He has also served as Co-Chairman of the President's Committee on the Arts and Humanities. His father, George Stevens, was the great film director of films like Gunga Din, documentary on Nazi concentration Camps, Giant , a Place in the Sun....Shane, Diary of Anne Frank...
There are certain people and musicians, whom the word Legend does not even come close to describing them. Paul McCartney is one of those people and musicians. Along with John, George and Ringo, Paul changed Music and, in many ways, the world, for the better. If you had a bad day at work, or the world was dragging you down. All you have to do is listen to Paul McCartney and everything seems right with the world, for a few minutes. He is the architect of modern music. Almost every genre of music today, must pay homage to Paul McCartney and the Beatles. Thank you, Paul.
I was one of the kids that happened to be watching the Ed Sullivan show the night that my music world changed forever . It is mind boggling that the songs Paul has written. It is amazing to me that one man can have as much talent to touch everyones life as he has done with his music .Im am so blessed to have been born in the generation of Paul and the Beatles. Pauls music not only changed the music world but changed the worled with his incredible music .There never was, there isn't now and never will be another Paul and the Beatles. Thank you Paul . People who were there know what i'm talking about
BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Me too. I was 11, wanting to become a neurosurgeon. Watched all 3 weeks. Since then I've had a life of music and production, my own music as well as others, and to this day, I have the honor of playing some of the best music ever in my L.A.-based Beatles tribute band, The Beatunes. I wholeheartedly blame The Beatles for vaporizing my medical career, and I couldn't be more grateful!
Charlie Francis. I was 12 years old when the world changed forever. Never forget it.
My sisters and I were 8, 9, & 10 years old. We were sitting 2 feet in front of our big b&w tv so excited. Nobody knew we were watching music history. Love you, Paul!🏅
R G. It was more than the Beatles The DC Five were great. Ma and Pops with great music.
I think many people overlooked Alec Baldwin here.
He made a hillarious speech yet so beautiful and captured the moment.
Kudo's to the writer and Alec for amazing introduction.
Yes LOVED Baldwin's good-natured, slightly irreverent and hilarious intro!
I was just thinking the exact same thing Dalfi lol
I disagree with you, Alec Baldwin is an embarrassment, plain and simple. The speech was well written and for sure not written by AB - he's incapable of it, the clown.
Alec just another liberal idiot in that industry
“The plain. old. Beatles.” Bahahahahahahaha.
Paul is lowkey the greatest musician of the 20th century. A prodigy in bass, composer, vocalist, musician
It's hard to disagree. He's played over 40 different instruments on record, and plays each one of them in a uniquely melodic and original way - even playing the stringed instruments often upside down and back to front! People will still be studying and listening to his music hundreds of years from now.
Watching this in 2023…you’re not human if you’re not moved by Mavis’s version of Let it Be!
Unbeliavable how one single man came up with so many legendary songs. Paul is the same room with Mozart, Beethoven, Lennon, Elvis, MJ, Bach, Dylan, among others.
I think you will find that Elvis didn't write any music
Paul, John, Bach, Mozart and Beethoven
The greatests muscians mankind has produce
I think you forget to mention George Frideric Handel
Elvis 😅😅😅😅 what the hell did he write? Great singer yes,charm,charisma, looks and a fantastic voice BUT he never wrote anything, can hardly be called a composer. Elvis isn't in the same room as the others
You were doing fine until Elvis and MJ. They were not about the music, they were about stardom.
Dave Grohl................pure class...................
+Keith “Mr. Binary Options” Mann all of them there to pay homage to a Rock God.
Absolutely, and eventually became good friends with Paul, as well. Watch Dave Grohl's documentary "Sound City" about the revered L.A. recording studio, and you'll get a taste of what a talented and intelligent guy he is. AND there's a great jam session in which Sir Paul comes in to play with him! If you appreciate Grohl you'd LOVE this documentary!
Norah and Dave just work so well together. They should do an album.
Goosebumps listening to “Hey, Jude.” Thank you Sir Paul for all the tunes through the years.
At 19:07 he looks up to the heavens, I can sense a lump in his throat. There was in mine
absolutely
Probably remembering his mom during Hey Jude which be wrote about her
@@bill2527 No Hey Jude was written for Julian after John and Cynthia's divorce. Let it be was inspired by a dream wherein his mom showed up and told him the words"let it be."
@@PhilipIsTheNeym yeah your right
@@bill2527 he wrote hey jude about julian lennon when John and Cytnhia broke up, let it be he wrote about his mother
Everyone was good but Steven Tyler was epic.
Agreed! I wasn't expecting a lot of him but he blew the back door down. Just great.
He is still awesome. I saw Aerosmith 2 years ago, and for a bunch of 60 year old guys, they still rock
He's also an UglyMFEr
Yeah well he's old. We can't stay beautiful forever. He's still a terrific entertainer.
oscar angel Who cares if Tyler's odd looking...he was magic!
Nothing but the best for Sir Paul McCartney! Stellar ending! ❤🎶🎵
Paul McCartney is something magical. Pure and simple.
The only thing missing here is Ringo Starr. They should've honored them both.
Damn straight.
That's correcto!
He deserves it
Agree❤️
Yes they should have dont get why he wasnt there..when they did Zeppelin all 3 surviving members were present.
I was and still am a Beatles fan along with millions more. I feel so blessed to of heard their music. A huge part od my life! When I hear their music, I am again 13 yrs old! What a blessing!!😊
Steven Tyler killed it. Thank the gods. Only performance, for me, that lived up to what Paul (with Wings or the Beatles) could do in terms of intensity, commitment, & sheer, raw talent.
This homage concert always gets me! No one deserves this more than the great Paul McCartney! All our loving to him!
The singers blew me away, but they certainly put together a MONSTER band to play those tunes. Now, THAT'S what I call a COVER BAND - "THE REAL DEAL." Beautiful tribute to Paul McCartney.
Love , Love , LOVE , LOVE
Paul is awesome and he had " a little help from his friends" RIP John and george
And Ringo
Lesley Brooks Hes not dead
The performance from Steve Tyler, band, and Choir has to the best ever cover of McCartneys classic songs.
Agreed💯
I'd like to give a million likes to this seeing the joy on Paul's face getting back for just one night all the beauty and love he gave us in our lifetimes. God Bless You, Paul.
Sir Paul, you are the gratest! I had the pleasure to attend to one of your concerts in Chile a couple of years ago and it was fantastic! The best! ❤❤❤
Paul McCartney/Beatles is the greatest of all time. The music they wrote and played reached throughout all generations. Paul is part of history that will never be duplicated again. The music is timeless. That's why I say music from my generation will never be matched again. Peace & Love, Rick Ryan
+Rick Ryan you got that right mate.
2nd best would be john lennon
+Rick Ryan With all due respect to the songs he wrote in Wings and as a solo artist, i'd say that about 90% of the reason for his current standing in musical history and the esteem he's held in is based purely on the incredible 5 or 6 year period of work he did as part of the Beatles.
+Rick Ryan absolutely!!!
+godriczimmerman 5 or 6 years? John and Paul met back in '57 or '58, so...
WOW! The music created by the Beatles knew no boundaries. Mavis Staples takes us to church with her vocal and then the ultimate world mantra of ' Hey Jude ' brings everybody and every culture together in joyful voice and loving affection. A finale to blow your socks off!
Loved the Beatles and the Album Band on the run with Wings. So much talent and geniusness you possess
Tell Paul to play Tarkus by ELP
Im 10 years younger than Sir Paul, but listening to my Beatle albums makes me feel like a teenager again❤❤❤
Paul's miraculous music is in the DNA of all of us, how not to cry, HOW? :') And by God, Steven Tyler is THE BOSS!
Almost 7 years later, this still gives me chills. There will never ever be a one two punch of genius songwriting as Lennon and McCartney. Sir Paul, you have shared so much of your life with we public. Thank you for such love. You're amazing.

Almost 8 years later, same goes for me. Thanks Paul! God bless you!
Paul Simon!
Never say never
Tears of happiness down my face!!! Thank you sooooooooo much!!!!!!!!!!
I just sent a link and a text to my brother, who I might add is 11 years older than I am. He introduced me to this sound. Was there ever a time when this sound didn't exist? Clearly, there was. The kids when I was growing up said things like, "why do you like that old stuff?" And here I am, as someone else said, with a tear in my eye. The best music of at least one generation, and possibly three. Keep it up, Macca. We're all rooting for you.
I hope Paul and Ringo live to be 120 years old and that they outlive me. I cannot bear the thought of being in this world without them! They have been my life since the age of 8 in 1963!
I can't conceive of a world without them in it either and they've been a massive part of my life since the day I was born.
Oh God, me too! I loved them since I was 4 years old. John was my favorite to be honest. Just shattered me when he was shot. Esp since it was so unexpected & brutal ss he just sang & stood for love & peace. Couldn't listen to any of the music over a year or I'd just cry. Now, I love listening to it as it brings back fond memories. Might not be as bad w Paul but then again it might as it'll signify even more, an end of an era & my generations music. Although, my 19 year old daughter loves that music too.
steve tyler rocked this!!
Paul Mac Cartney
Although I enjoyed the video; what really got my heart, was the several comments made from people all over!
I was 10 years of age when we first heard the Beatles and we sung our hearts out with their beat; but I must be very honest with myself to say that it took me many years to really realized how big they were!!!
Definitely the best musical group and Paul Mac Cartney one of the best musician that have ever lived!!
May God Keep you around for many more years to come !!!
Thank you for the Music !!!
Paul and the Beatles songs just pull you in and fill you with joy. If the world would start replaying all of these songs, I’m sure it would be a better place
“Ladies and gentlemen James Taylor”
Paul: “OMG”
Steven Tyler nailed it & Sir Paul approved - EPIC!
Tyler was like some magical wizard taking the song to the level of incantation
@@carollipton4584 Yes he did ! and the whole band followed. they nearly knocked me off my chair they were so powerful !
Steve put 100% into it.
Sir Paul asked Steven to perform that song.
I have watched this so many times! Steve Tyler ❤ And the joy in everyone’s face, singing “Hey Jude”!!!
Can’t this man live forever? He helped write the soundtrack of my life! I love him almost as much as Jesus. God bless him always! ❤❤❤❤
And in the end the love you take is equal to the love you make. When I see all those people crying and singing along I myself cant help but crying. He is a miracle that happened to us - Sir Paul McCartney.
did anyone else tear up at Steven Tyler rendition of Pollythene Pam and / Carry that weight/The End. wow those vocals were so on point I couldn't help but tearing up
KAIOKEN ELITES He didn’t sing Polythene Pam, which was written by John Lennon. Aerosmith did the last four songs in the Abbey Road medley, She Came In Through The Bathroom Window, Golden Slumbers, Carry That Weight and The End.
How COULDN'T you? Every performance of every iconic song so many of us grew up with, was truly beyond amazing, doing justice to maybe the greatest songwriter of all time. And now, at age 76, his new album "Egypt Station," opened at, and is spending time at #1 on the Billboard charts. Absolutely RIGHT. Sir Paul is a true inspiration to anyone with even a passing appreciation for music, even introducing millions of people to it who otherwise would never have has a clue. Well done, and THANK YOU, Paul!
Woosie
Yes I teared up also💦...So good,.. Great even!💞
Polythene Pam rocked! But he didn't even come close to Paul on the others.
