Paul sabotaged John's songs?

prudence1964:
If he sabotaged those songs he did a really bad job of it.

He'd be hurting his own self had he done such a foolish outlandish thing. And the band, and the Goddess Music which he served so brilliantly and continues to worship and adore

John could certainly be insecure. But so could Paul. He was just better at hiding it. In defense of Paul, I don't think he ever sabotaged John's songs. But he was likely to care a bit less or put a bit less effort into someone else's song than his own. But that is just human nature. And for John to complain that Paul would take a more experimental attitude toward his songs is strange, since John did the same thing with his own songs (Tomorrow Never Knows, Strawberry Fields) and had more that penchant.
Except it was McCartney who created and recorded the background tape loops and driving bass to that track, not Lennon. While Lennon often had the vision, it was McCartney who had the musical acumen and technical expertise to turn an idea (vision) into reality.
I didn't say anything to the contrary. Furthermore, it was George Martin who brought Lennon's vision to reality, not McCartney.
