The Beatles: Paul McCartney doesn't think Fab Four success could happen again

18 April, 2021 - 0 Comments

Since The Beatles made their way onto the scene in 1962 a number of bands have been compared to them. Most recently, the likes of One Direction stirred up the conversation again after becoming one of the best-selling bands on the planet. Since their debut, 1D have sold more than 36 million records and counting. They never beat The Beatles, however. The Fab Four have sold more than 600 million records worldwide since their debut. This is the kind of success Paul McCartney is not convinced will ever be recreated in the music industry.

Speaking to Esquire in 2015, the singer and guitarist was asked if the success they reached could ever be hit again, or if they were a product of their time.

Macca replied: “We don't live in that culture any more, that's true. We came out of a very rich period. But let's not forgot, those four boys were f*****g good.

“It wasn't just to do with the period. You name me another group of four chaps, or chapesses, who had what The Beatles had.”
