Well, one of them. Sir Paul McCartney recounted his life and time with the legendary ’60s English rock group at Yale University on Thursday while celebrating his new book: “The Lyrics: 1956 to the Present.”
McCartney was joined by editor and Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Paul Muldoon and the Neil Gray Jr. Professor of English at Yale Landon Hammer. The trio discussed McCartney’s new book, which delves into 154 songs from all stages of his career: the decade with The Beatles, Wings, and his solo albums.
Fans got a behind-the-scenes look at why certain lyrics were written, the inspiration behind them, and what he thinks of the words now.
