This is the best McCartney interview. It's rare an interviewer can show how funny and playful Paul is, like this. Conan does the perfect job of, despite being a massive fan, still talking to him like he's a person and not putting him in the awkward position of total deference and fanning out. (Looking at you Fallon.)
Exactly. By treating him normally Conan gets to see more of Paul's personality than Conan would if, like Jimmy Fallon, he just kept saying "you are so awesome" over and over.
Conan is a truly gifted interviewer, who can riff with the best of them. They both just explode with charm. Can't help but like and appreciate these rare talents.
Sad to think that this was shot just a few months before Linda died... Paul must have had a lot on his mind, but was still able to be incredibly witty and gracious with Conan.
@@kryptonitespider-bitedynam7305 I agree with ya buddy, Linda was such a good person, She fixed Paul and made him happy again after the bands problems, while Yoko is sitting on Johns hard earned money... Dumb Broad.
Conan reached out to Paul’s wittier side, which I haven’t seen anyone else do since the early Beatles when they were being witty just by themselves. It’s great to see Paul open up like this, haven’t seen him crack these type of jokes in a while.
At birth. He wasn’t funny at all - annoying, in fact. He wouldn’t stop crying and he didn’t crack a single joke. In fact, Conan, so traumatised by birth, didn’t say a word for over 15 months after that.
It’s amazing how Conan manages to make everything funny even back in the 90s with a younger Sir Paul MCCartney who seems he really enjoys being there and following conan jokes.
Knowing how big of a Beatles fan Conan is I can't believe how well he kept his cool (and quick wit!) in that interview. McCartney actually seems to enjoy talking to him! Granted, back then he hadn't given up pot yet, but still. Incredible! Come to think of it, he'd also make a fantastic guest on Conan Needs A Friend.
I remember a video clip of him REALLY PISSED at a restaurant. He came out and ripoed into a photographer. He then went back and finishef his food. Never saw h THAT pissed 😡❤️🌹
McCartney is a true gentleman and along with his musical talent could be one hell of a funny guy. So humble yet so great. One of the best interviews he has ever done.
03:40: the timing and the delivery of the "No" and the whole anecdote itself, just perfect! Also the bit about him writing a song during the interview, love it!
When you play in a band with Lennon (who never suffered fools and had a sharp wit), and you’ve been one of the most famous people in history with 60 year career longevity, you can hold your own with even the best interviewers. Conan is excellent here but Paul is fantastic. The best interview I’ve seen with him in years
Paul McCartney legitimately seems so comfortable talking to Conan. In some weird way I could picture Conan slipping seamlessly into the “Get Back” footage as a 5th Beatle. Like they’re just so silly together it’a amazing.
This interview is 9 months before Linda McCartney's death and 4 years before George's death. Paul has this aura of authentic happiness about him. Has anyone dealt better than Paul with being a massive celebrity?
I remember reading somewhere that he grasps the impact he’s had, the depth of his legacy on the music and cultural norms of the 20th century and the “normal” family life that he and Linda created and because of that he is able to be relaxed in interviews and performing. He doesn’t have to prove anything any more or be needy for love from strangers. He knows who he is and what’s important to him.
I can see Paul likes Conan humour.. this makes me want to see Paul in person more. And also, what if John Lennon was still alive and be interviewed by Conan? I think it will be disaster 😂 ( saw past Beatles interview, they are really quick-witted )
Incredible to watch the humor back and forth between these two guys. I believe one of the things that made The Beatles (outside of the music, of course) was the comedic interplay of the four of them. In that way, it can be very tough to keep up with Paul McCartney. I believe it's also very difficult for some people to keep up with Conan when they're sitting across from him. So, again, watching these two giants in their fields interact was a real treat!
This is probably one of the better interviews he ever did....hats off to Conan for not boring him with typical questions. Instead he was able to get him relaxed and a bit goofy.
love that album! Jeff lynne plays on it and I think helps produce it. It's the only Sir Paul's solo albums I've ever heard. I didn't;t really love 'WINGS', except for band on the run, oh and live and let die.brilliant man. He's so engaging, and funny. I really do like Conan, I'm from Australia, so I haven't seen much of him except for you tube, and he is clever, entertaining, and self deprecading, which is nice to see, I'm not into the two Jimmy's, I don't find them funny. I did love the Sir Paul's Carpool karaoke with James Corden, that was a lovely trip down memory lane, and if you haven't seen it, do watch! Love the surprise in the pub! I love Liverpool. been a few times. cheers mate!
I also had a little chat with Sir Paul. It was in the mid 90s 6. I co-owned a environmental and animal rights newspaper. I caught the eye of Ingrid Newkirk, the co founder of PETA She was impressed with our newspaper and e deavors for animals and she introduced me to all of her celebrities so that I could interview them. The ONLY time that I was ever starstruck was while intervieing Paul and Linda MCartney. They were both so nice and sportive. They gave me several interview's and Linda gave me recipes that she never published for her cookbooks to use for my holiday editions. They were, he IS so incredibly down to earth and all around nice humans. God Bless
A pleasure from beginning to end. Paul was every bit Conan's equal in the humor and comeback cleverness. A wonderful exchange between the two gentlemen. Worth seeing over.
I never was a big fan of Paul, but lately I’ve rediscovered his music. He is an amazing artist as well as a human being. He is so down to earth. What a genius!
I think they've been uploading a lot of the old stuff now that the covid is happening, to keep up the high quality content (i.e. things other than two people sitting on their couches at home)
I don't think I've ever seen Sir Paul being so naturally funny! I think I've laughed more at Paul's jokes than at Conan's ones! It's like Conan opened another chakra in him!
This is such a good interview. A YOUNG Conan (my age now - 33/34). I’m sure this was a huge moment for him interviewing Sir Paul. Super cool. Thanks for posting
Paul enjoyed this interview a lot. You can see he's in his best mood here. Conan is really terribly underrated as an interviewer. He got the funny side out of McCartney.
McCartneys hilarious responses to conans questions and comments are so fluid and instantaneous which makes it even funnier. His mind is as sharp as possible. Conan was so relaxed and funny and an interview mccartney probably didn't expect as all the others were the same boring typical questions. Definitely the most entertaining one I've seen with the great sir Paul mccartney!
Love this! Everyone always asks him the same stuff but Paul has such a great sense of humor. If an interviewer can play into it, they’re seemingly able to win him over
You can really see how Paul genuinely liked Conan here. Although he must be starstruck like other interviewer, Conan's not overtly nice and he managed to break through that barrier of the 'fan admiring interview' and instead just treated him normally and even made jokes about him. He brought out the witty side of Paul that only his close friends must've seen, it's a new fresh side of entertainment!
I could watch Conan and McCartney talk for hours. The conversation is just so funny and fluently. There’s no room for awkwardness. Conan is a genius. Paul as well ofcourse.
Yes i agree of the idea that conan is WAY better then the jimmys, but fucking stop writing these meaningless comments. Just comment of smthing related to the show.
I've loved Paul since I was 12 years old in 1963. He's still SOO beautiful AND FUNNY...oh my god. People should really listen to the old John Lennon Paul McCartney interviews....their humor WAS ALWAYS as good as their music. Pure genius both of them. 💛
Paul doesn’t get enough credit for being as funny as he is and has always been. People are very quick to attribute the humor to John because it was that legendary sardonic wit, but damn-all them Beatles were hilarious
This is amazing chemistry between Conan and Paul. Paul got and went with every joke. Other than maybe David Wigg, this is my favorite McCartney interview.
Conan brings out the best in everyone he interviews. So natural. First time I've seen this and feel as if I've seen Paul in his most natural element, wicked smart both of these gentleman are.
It's weird how Conan was just another late night host for years, and now his segments are eternal history. he travelled FAR more than Letterman and could put guests at ease more, ESPECIALLY outside of studios on their own turf. Now Conan's segments may be the most popular of all late night appearances. This is definitely one of the more in depth and light hearted moments with Paul. It's one of the best.
Thank you Conan for not asking any questions about The Beatles. Almost every interview has the same tired questions. The only time they were mentioned was by Paul and he shared a funny recollection. Paul enjoyed the interview and played off on Conan’s comedy and as a result Paul never zoned out and went flat. If only other interviewers would follow this example of how much Paul has to offer other than talk about The Beatles. The Liverpool came out strong when he said, “That’s where I got ‘em.” The accent and humor spot on. 😂
Two geniuses. McCartney is an all-time great without question. Conan's all-time greatness might or might not be all-time, because his predecessors were pretty groundbreaking and brilliant at the most difficult approach to comedy (clean comedy).
Huge fan of Paul McCartney here. You know something, you listen to interviews of him now compared to interviews of him when he was younger, his Liverpool accent has thinned out considerably. I don’t know how to feel about that. It was something of an icon for the man.
Mc Cartney is totally in his comfort zone in this interview. The riffing was excellent between them. Imagine that Conan would have been nervous before the interview and thinking to himself - geez how this gonna end up - well it ended up perfect!
This is the best McCartney interview. It's rare an interviewer can show how funny and playful Paul is, like this.

@@patrickscottwalsh What lol. I guess any interview would be memorable if there's fellatio involved
Conan's interview with Paul was great. But this interview with Paul remains the best ever done: ua-cam.com/video/6M_N2eeR338/v-deo.html
Conan is such a great interviewer it’s unreal. No matter who he speaks to he gets them to laugh and open up. What a talent.
If you haven't seen when Howard Stern interviewed Conan, I highly recommend it for Conan fans.
Except Jordan Schlansky
@@Chicomite Howard sucks eggs now
@@WorldsWorstBoy yes, yes he sucks eggs now. Not fun anymore
He could also crack up Harrison Ford. Thats when I knew Conan was the one
holy smokes, paul mccartney is a master comedic improvisor in addition to a master musician
He is good at the "yes and".
otherwise Conan makes it really easy for people to shoot back and fourth with him
Eat shit Cliff
Now have you ever heard of John Lennon? If Paul's any good at being quick-witted, John dwarfed that
@@althealligator1467 ua-cam.com/video/rGtVJbi5Rn8/v-deo.html
Great thing is, they never talked about the CD
I guess "anything else" came up!
It's actually a really good album. One of McCartney's best solo albums, IMO.
Right? What kind of interview would that be?
@@chipmeans380 probably the last really good album he made. Been s bit downhill ever since. And Ejit Station? Oh dear! Let's not go there.
They mentioned his biggest hit from the album, Waterski
I've seen thousands of Paul's interviews and this is one the best!
I agree. Paul was very funny in this interview with Conan !!
love your vids man
That's amazing.
It helps than Conan is a MASSIVE fan.
How long ago was this interview?
Sad to think that this was shot just a few months before Linda died... Paul must have had a lot on his mind, but was still able to be incredibly witty and gracious with Conan.

@@benson1914 And now please tell us how Yoko cursed John in the first place?
"Well, I'm finished with you Conan", has to be the most threatening yet comedic line ever spoken.
"I think that's it, love..."
McCartney refuses to be outsmarmied or outwitted. Hilarious.
Great comment.
Yes, indeed. My thoughts exactly. It's everything Conan can do to keep up with Paul
Beat the Meatles
Ikr
Conan is visibly starstrucked, also remember Paul was able to keep up with Lennon legendary wit
The balls conan has to have this much sarcasm with Sir Paul 😂
Sir Paul took it well
British humor was always sarcastic & dry.
They both know exactly who they are....which is "very cool"
Music Studio They shake hands at the very end.
i think it's more to do with of how comfortable you feel around someone they seem pretty good friends in general
This is the most I've ever seen Paul McCartney laugh during an interview. Expertly conducted by a young Conan!
omg Their dry humor fits together perfectly. Never realized before.
I think it's the Irish wit they share...
Honestly,
You can see Conan holding back the sheer joy of speaking to Paul McCartney. It's like he's looking directly into the light.
especially in the first clips where they shake hands conan is BEAMING
Ud b picking me up off the floor 🌹🌹❤️❤️
Conan reached out to Paul’s wittier side, which I haven’t seen anyone else do since the early Beatles when they were being witty just by themselves. It’s great to see Paul open up like this, haven’t seen him crack these type of jokes in a while.

Probably why Conan was a writer on the Simpsons and the others weren’t!
Matt James yep, best writer ever to
Conan had a dangerous Catholic priest stalker (David Ajemian) who was in love with him. That wasn't funny.

"be so"?

When did he give up pot?
@@semihrodrigue8579 when he became a grandpa
And Paul did become a guest on CONAF!
I've always thought Paul McCartney does the best job ever of being a celebrity.
What a great comment! Spot on
He always credited his upbringing for being so centered.
I remember a video clip of him REALLY PISSED at a restaurant. He came out and ripoed into a photographer. He then went back and finishef his food. Never saw h THAT pissed 😡❤️🌹
John Lennon used to say Paul was the best PR Man he ever saw.
He hates paparazzi and will not sign anything you give him.. but man is he a quick wit.
Dude the best part of this is seeing how quick, witty and funny Paul is that he doesn't even skip a beat with Conan!
this truly is the best thing of this.
This was so enjoyable... Their chemistry was perfect.
McCartney is a true gentleman and along with his musical talent could be one hell of a funny guy. So humble yet so great. One of the best interviews he has ever done.
Coca Cola and McCarntey. Both fulla saccharine
Love how Paul rolled with all Conan’s jokes and was funny in his own right. Very cool
03:40: the timing and the delivery of the "No" and the whole anecdote itself, just perfect!
Also the bit about him writing a song during the interview, love it!
"Nobody may be seeing you again". LMAO. Paul is hilarious in this interview.
When you play in a band with Lennon (who never suffered fools and had a sharp wit), and you’ve been one of the most famous people in history with 60 year career longevity, you can hold your own with even the best interviewers.
Conan is excellent here but Paul is fantastic. The best interview I’ve seen with him in years
Conan brought out the great sense of humour Paul has in this interviewer better than anyone else. You can tell Paul enjoyed it and he likes Conan.
Good chemistry. Conan's deadpan sarcasm here was perfect. Quite similar to George or John's style. So was relatable to Paul.

Actually John Lennon had come to Conan's show and he wad time traveling from 1965
You should listen to Conan's podcast, the episodes with Dana Carvey. They are both massive Beatles fans and they do a back and forth as John and Paul.
Interesting thing to imagine in my head. Conan interviewing John. My goodness!!
Hopefully soon there'll be a Beatles reunion. Only one more left to go.
Yea these guys have great chemistry

Conan is 1000 Time better than Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel.
👍👍👍
You're wrong. Conan is 10000000 times better than Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel. :D
Kimmel interviews people like they're kids. Watch any of his interview and you'll know what I mean.
Combined...
i am much better than you. my cat is better than your.
I also had a little chat with Sir Paul. It was in the mid 90s 6. I co-owned a environmental and animal rights newspaper. I caught the eye of Ingrid Newkirk, the co founder of PETA

Please forgive the typos. I did this post on an Android.
Loved this story
Paul bitting back with Conan is incredible. Never seen an interview like this where Sir Paul has been so comfortable.
The more you watch Conan, the more you realize how bad Kimmel, Fallon, and Corden are
Haha. Paul is as funny and quick as Conan.
literally the best late night host ever.
I've seen multiple McCartney interviews and this must be one of the best.
maybe not "bad" but man, nowhere near the same level.
When considering Paul's interviews, only Colbert comes close to this one.
A pleasure from beginning to end. Paul was every bit Conan's equal in the humor and comeback cleverness. A wonderful exchange between the two gentlemen. Worth seeing over.
I never was a big fan of Paul, but lately I’ve rediscovered his music. He is an amazing artist as well as a human being. He is so down to earth. What a genius!
I have never seen Paul funnier. This is making my morning.
Paul seems like the most down to earth genuine person. Never seen someone SO famous be so cool and easy- and funny.
Can't believe that my favorite late night show host did an interview with one of my favorite musicians of all time🥰🥰🥰🥰
This was brilliant. I can't believe I have never seen this. Is this up because he is interviewing him on the show or podcast soon??
I hope so!!!
it's probably because back then this was done as a promo for Flaming Pie, and now the album is getting reissued. but let's hope for an appearance!!
I think they've been uploading a lot of the old stuff now that the covid is happening, to keep up the high quality content (i.e. things other than two people sitting on their couches at home)
It's up because he need to sell more Flaming Piles to remodel the kitchen in one of his English manor homes.

Never saw this interview before. Classic! Paul is a natural comedian.
The Beatles had massive charm and wit waaaay back when and I’m happy they kept it through the years. You can’t outwit them, many have tried.

I've watched 100s of McCartney interviews and I'm pretty sure this is the only one where he legit laughs. Thanks you, Conan! You're a legend
this is one of the best McCartney and one of the best Conan interviews I've ever seen. I can't believe it's the first time I watched it
I haven’t seen Paul be this at ease with an interviewer - ever. I feel like Conan’s humour really gels with a lot of people, in a fascinating way.
Paul is so sharp, gotta love him
This could raise your fanbase to 5 or 6.
Hes just so good
“And then you start writing a song about waterskiing - which ends the album, and is very good, by the way.”
god damn this man's wit is quick as hell, it's rare seeing anyone that can keep up with Conan's antics
