[5th-beatle]

This is so incredible that deserves its own thread... Paul McCartney singing a Taylor Swift song!

Worst. Song. Ever.

Worst. Song. Ever.

But at least he is relevant to the younger crowd now.

But HEYYYYYYYYYYY it seems Paul plays Rickenbacker? Bass. It's isn't 100% not the Hofner

It's a Fender bass.

Yes, a lefty! Maybe the coolest thing about this.

Thanks for the links. I wish Paul and Prince had played together. http://consequenceofsound.net/2015/02/snls-40th-anniversary-after-party-lasted-till-4am-featured-prince-paul-mccartney-and-taylor-swift-as-the-house-band/ parlance

You're welcome. Here are Paul and Dan Aykroyd... if Chevy Chase were onstage, they could have done "Spies Like Us"

That might be the only occasion where a live "Spies Like Us" could be done right.

Not particularly a fan of Taylor Swift, but she's okay; I like a few of her songs. She can play, she can write, she can sing, and she's doing a lot to raise awareness of the crappy royalties that musicians get from streaming services like Spotify. She gets good reviews; who am I to judge? Probably worth mentioning that Paul's daughter is eleven years old and likely becoming a music consumer now.

Well, that's debatable.

White-washed rip-off of Pharrell's "Happy."

Songs that are worse: What Goes On (The Beatles!) Tiptoe Through The Tulips (Tiny Tim) She Bangs (William Hung)

I'd call it a four-way tie. A five-way tie if you include Scotty McCreery's "I Love You This Big."

He's NOT playing the Hofner. That's the most exciting thing he's done in ages.

As if "Happy" wasn't white-washed enough. What happened to the old Pharrell? :

[admin]

I guess he just wants a new audience and get rid of the old.

[lol_lennon]

I was hoping he and Taylor would collaborate (on or off stage) at some point!
