Mull Of Kintyre - Paul McCartney

Song: Mull Of Kintyre
Artist: Paul McCartney

Mull of Kintyre
Oh mist rolling in from the sea,
My desire is always to be here
Oh mull of Kintyre

Far have I travelled and much have I seen
Dark distant mountains with valleys of green.
Past painted deserts the sunset's on fire
As he carries me home to the mull of Kintyre.

Mull of Kintyre
Oh mist rolling in from the sea,
My desire is always to be here
Oh mull of Kintyre

Sweep through the heather like deer in the glen
Carry me back to the days I knew then.
Nights when we sang like a heavenly choir
Of the life and the time of the mull of Kintyre.

Mull of Kintyre
Oh mist rolling in from the sea,
My desire is always to be here
Oh mull of Kintyre

Smiles in the sunshine
And tears in the rain
Still take me back to where my memories remain
Flickering embers growing higher and higher
As they carry me back to the mull of Kintyre

Mull of Kintyre
Oh mist rolling in from the sea,
My desire is always to be here
Oh mull of Kintyre

Mull of Kintyre
Oh mist rolling in from the sea,
My desire is always to be here
Oh mull of Kintyre.

The World Tonight - Paul McCartney

Song: The World Tonight
Artist: Paul McCartney

I saw you sitting at the center of a circle
Everybody,
Everybody wanted something from you
I saw you sitting there

I saw you swaying to the rhythm of the music
Caught you playing
Caught you praying to the voice inside you
I saw you swaying there

I don't care what you want to be
I go back so far, I'm in front of me
It doesn't matter what they say
They're giving the game away

I can see the world tonight
Look into the future
See it in a different light
I can see the world tonight

I heard you listening to a secret conversation
You were crying
You were trying not to let them hear you
I heard you listening in

Never mind what they want to do
You got a right, to your point of view
It doesn't matter what they say
They're giving the game away

I can see the world tonight
Look into the future
See it in a different light
I can see the world tonight

I saw you hiding from a flock of paparazzi
You were hoping
You were hoping that the ground would swallow you
I saw you hiding there

I don't care what you want to be
I go back so far, I'm in front of me
It doesn't matter what they say
They're giving the game away

I can see the world tonight
Look into the future
See it in a different light
I can see the world tonight

Look into the future

I can see the world tonight

See it in a different light
I can see the world tonight
I can see the world tonight

Little Willow - Paul McCartney

Song: Little Willow
Artist: Paul McCartney

Bend, little willow
Wind's gonna blow you
Hard and cold tonight

Life, as it happens
Nobody warns you
Willow, hold on tight

Nothing's gonna shake your love
Take your love away
No one's out to break your heart
It only seems that way... hey

Sleep, little willow
Peace gonna follow
Time will heal your wounds

Grow to the heavens
Now and forever
Always came too soon

Little willow

Nothing's gonna shake your love
Take your love away
No one's out to break your heart
It only seems that way... hey

Bend, little willow
Wind's gonna blow you
Hard and cold tonight

Life, as it happens
Nobody warns you
Willow, hold on tight

Ah, little willow
Little willow

Paul McCartney's concert videos!!!

I'm finally done uploading the Paul McCartney concert videos on Youtube!
Here is two playlists containing them all... The first one is from the first concert, the one from Nov 21st, where there is a sequence of my videos, ending with the last songs and his fall (I don't think I've mentioned it before, but yes, he did fall as he was leaving the stage at the end), going on to a couple of my friends that were with me up front and on the soundcheck (forbidden to record) and then I added some videos of parts that were missing that I thought were good. The second playlist is from the second concert and contains only videos uploaded by me! :) Enjoy!

From the concert of Nov 21st 2010:

Petition Online for a Paul McCartney DVD

Since there has been all this fuzz around Paul McCartney's concert on Nov 21st at Sao Paulo and that it has been one of the best of his career (as atested by himself and other members of his band and crew - click here for more information on the show). We started wondering wether this show wouldn't make a great DVD, MPL was present and recorded the whole concert, as parts of it were aired by a local broadcasting company. A Petition online was started asking for the production of this DVD. If you would like to help and sign it, just click on the link bellow:

Paul McCartney's interview talking about his concert in Sao Paulo

Paul McCartney gave an exclusive interview after his show in London on December 17th, where he talks about the show in São Paulo. Directly from his website, here is the full interview:


At 3:05 of the interview:

Could you pick one live moment of the year as a stand out highlight? It’s been an incredible year… 
It’s been an incredible year, I think you’ve got, I would pick two. I think Sao Paulo, 65,000 people the first show was amazing the Brazilian people love their music and so we love to play to them and it was a stand out show. It was one of our top shows ever, and it was just brilliant, the audience was bananas and we have a great evening. And then I think you know you come down to the East room in the White House, smaller but just as great because of the Obamas' and the guests who were on the show so we had a great evening there too so I would choose those two.

Isn't it truly AMAZING? We had already received other comments from his band and crew, but this is Paul McCartney, former Beatle, 68 years old, that said it was one of his best shows EVER! It was the highlight of his year! His best concert in the year... And I was there! Front row and everything! Brilliant! We are so thrilled!

Calico Skies - Paul McCartney

Song: Calico Skies
Artist: Paul McCartney

It was written that I would love you
From the moment I opened my eyes
And the morning when I first saw you
Gave me life under calico skies

I will hold you for as long as you like
I'll hold you for the rest of my life

Always looking for ways to love you
Never failing to fight at your side
While the angels of love protect us
From the innermost secrets we hide

I'll hold you for as long as you like
I'll hold you for the rest of my life

Long live all of us crazy soldiers
Who were born under calico skies
May we never be called to handle
All the weapons of war we despise

I'll hold you for as long as you like
I'll hold you for the rest of my life
I'll hold you for as long as you like
I'll hold you for the rest of my ...
For the rest of my life

Paul McCartney singing Scrambled Eggs

On the 12th December Paul McCartney was on Late Night with Jimmy Falcon, where he sang for the first time the "whole lyrics" for Scrambled Eggs, sooo funny!

For those who doesn't know, "Scrambled Eggs" was the working title for the song "Yesterday", until Paul wrote the lyrics. The orginal lyrics were supposed to start as "Scrambled eggs, oh my darling how I love your legs, mmmmm" and could involve something like: yesterday I had scrambled eggs, today I will have scrambled eggs, I believe in scrambled eggs, etc. Now he wrote the complete lyrics for fun and performed it live! Check it out!




Edit (02.Fev.2011): Can't believe its not available anymore... let's see if this one from Youtube stays on...

If You Were Here Today

It was 30 years ago today, that a great man who had much to add to this world was brutally taken from us.
Here is a video of a great song from another great man in his honour.


Video made by me on his concert in 21.Nov in Sao Paulo

And If I Say I Really Knew You Well
What Would Your Answer Be.
If You Were Here Today.
Ooh- Ooh- Ooh- Here To - Day.
Well Knowing You,
You'd Probably Laugh And Say That We Were Worlds Apart.
If You Were Here Today.
Ooh- Ooh- Ooh- Here To - Day.
But As For Me,
I Still Remember How It Was Before.
And I Am Holding Back The Tears No More.
Ooh- Ooh- Ooh- I Love You, Ooh-
What About The Time We Met,
Well I Suppose That You Could Say That We Were Playing Hard To Get.
Didn't Understand A Thing.
But We Could Always Sing.
What About The Night We Cried,
Because There Wasn't Any Reason Left To Keep It All Inside.
Never Understood A Word.
But You Were Always There With A Smile.
And If I Say I Really Loved You
And Was Glad You Came Along.
If You Were Here Today.
Ooh- Ooh- Ooh- For You Were In My Song.
Ooh- Ooh- Ooh- Here To - Day.

Here Today by Paul McCartney

Paul McCartney's concert repercurssion

The show was great, and as I mentioned before about the white balloons and its repercurssion, here are some other events:

Paul's head of security talking about the concert:



Brian Ray's Tweet (@brianrayguitar):
"Sao Paulo.. I'll never forget your beautiful smiles and tears.. and 60,000 white balloons!"
Brian Ray's Facebook:
"I'm heading home to LA after 6 weeks away on tour.. Thank you, South America for some of the best times we've ever had in 9 years together.. And thanks for the BALLOONS !! Bx"
And even Paul during the show sang "Give Peace a Chance with your white balloons" or something like that! 
I told you he said "wow" to Paul!
:)
Yey!!! They really liked it!!!

Paul McCartney and more Paul McCartney

I was waiting for all concerts to be over to post here, and it's gonna be a huge post... But... Let's go...

It was AMAZING... Nothing really left to say besides that, everything is else is gonna be redundant...I'm gonna talk about everything regarding the show here, illustrating with pictures as we go, if you want to see them full size, just click on them :) I've made a lot of videos too, but I still don't know what I'm gonna do with them, so I'll let you know!
All Set lists I mention are further down... Let's start from the beginning then... 

The first day was the 21st November, a very beautiful day, it didn't rain and it wasn't too hot, so it was bearable to wait for all the hours we were supposed to.
We arrived at something around 12:30, once inside (it didn't take that long) we received all our souvenirs which included a bag, a cap, the tour book and a badge, besides the two bracelets indicating that we belonged to the "Hot Sound Package", which meant we had sound check access and to the "Pista Prime"   section during the show, the area of the field right in front of the stage. 
We were then lead to a room where we were served lunch, the same vegetarian meal all his crew is served. It was really good, I'm not a vegetarian, but it was a very sophisticated meal with exquisite food, which included green salad with nuts, artichoke and palm cabbage risotto, cheese and leek quiche and brie conchiglione, with chocolate mousse and fruit salad for dessert.
After a while we were able to leave this room and position ourselves in the area we would watch the sound check. It was between the "pista prime" and "pista" sections of the stadium. It was not that close, but we had a pretty good view! He arrived a bit late, but he was able to play around 10 songs, it was great, it was a very relaxing atmosphere very informal, many jokes and all, Penny Lane was a request from the audience and he even joked "I don't know if I remember that one, but let's try!"... Beautiful! The better was that from all the songs he played only one was meant to be on the show's set list, all the others were bonus!
We were then "released" to go to the "pista prime" section and position ourselves for the show... The show that was still 4 hours away, but it didn't matter, we were right in front of his mic! A perfect place! The rest of the people who were waiting to come into the stadium were then led inside...
After 4 hours and punctually at 21:30 the show started! OMG! What an incredible performance, I don't know how he manages to sing for 3 whole hours straight!
I think Paul really enjoying performing this particular concert. He looked touched several times, he thanked the audience many many times and said things as "Ooo Sao Paulo, you are something!" "This song we like people to sing along... but... You are singing every song along, so, let's go!"... Everybody sang a lot during songs, which made him joke back, and we had many moments of interactions and little jokes because of that, we teased him and he responded! He also kept trying to say things in Portuguese, so cute! He made them sound pretty good, amazing! And several long sentences! Congratulations Sir Paul!
Give Peace a Chance was the most special moment regarding Paul-public interaction... We organised per Internet that everybody should bring white balloons to wave, and it worked! The stadium was covered with white balloons, so beautiful! I was really in front of him and I could see that he opened his eyes in an amazed expression when all those people started putting their balloons up, then he looked at Brian, who clearly mouthed "wow" at him! And suddenly the screens weren't showing the band, but a lot of white balloons floating... Beautiful! When the song ended and he went to the piano he kept saying "Thank you! That was beautiful! Thank you! Beautiful!" (*I've read a message from a woman that was standing next to Paul's production staff, and she started talking to one of them, who kept saying how amazing that was, that they have traveled around the world and never saw anything like that and etc... Pretty touching to hear, isn't it?)
The set list was wonderful, but that goes without saying, once it's Beatles' and Paul's songs... Here Today was beautiful... And Something, with George's photographs at the back... So, well, beautiful. I loved that they played Paperback Writer and Helter Skelter, some of my favourite songs, and the ending, besides sad, was just perfect. I cried when Sgt. Pepper's Reprise started... And the Beatles Rock Band video playing in the back! Wonderful! The show was perfect! Everything! And the place were we stood, just the best place of all 64,000 people who were there!


The 22nd November was a rainy day... This time I was standing in "arquibanca especial vermelha" section of the stadium, so I was able to get there a bit later (thank God! I was still tired from the day before!) and I was able to buy a T-shirt! It's far, but we have a good view of the whole, which was very interesting for a second day, after all, on the first day, it was us in the front and him, nobody else, now it's the whole stadium, we could see everybody and everything and yes, full house again, besides the rain!
Another good aspect of going to both concerts was the set list, out of the 35 songs he sang on the 21st, 4 he didn't sing on the 22nd, but he sang other 5. (I'm guessing that this one song was to compensate for the time, this show was going to end sooner than the one from the day before because there weren't all that playing and teasing...). He opened with Magical Mystery Tour instead of Venus and Mars / Rockshow (But Magical Mystery Tour he played in the Sound check), he sang Got to Get You Into My Life instead of Drive My Car, I'm Looking Through You instead of I've Just Seen a Face, Two of Us instead of And I Love Her and he played Bluebird (which he also played in the sound check). Great!
I'm so thrilled I got to go to both concerts and that I went to sound check and "pista prime" on the first day, because of the rain the sound check of the second show was cancelled and with all that rain it was going to be really annoying to be waiting for the show.

No Other Baby - Paul McCartney

Song: No Other Baby
Artist: Paul McCartney

But I don't want no other baby but you, I don't want no other baby but you,
cause no other baby can thrill me like you do.

Got a little woman, lives across the hall, I got a little woman, she lives across the hall
and most every evening she's asking me to call.
But I don't want no other baby but you, I don't want no other baby but you,
cause no other baby can thrill me like you do.

But lots of other women say be my daddy do, yeah, lots of other women say be my daddy do,
but I tell them I don't want no other baby like you.
I said, I don't want no other baby but you, I don't want no other baby but you,
cause no other baby can thrill me like you do.
