Paul McCartney on Songwriting
Paul McCartney is my favorite musician ever.
When I was 16 or 17, I wrote a song about not believing I was in the same room as Paul (note: this never happened - I wrote about what I thought it would be like for me to be in the presence of Paul) called "Mr. McCartney." It still makes me smile when I think about it. And I still hope that it happens someday.
While I can't recall the entirety of the song (and it's for the best as it was not one of my best), I stumbled upon this wonderful interview with Paul about his songwriting process and thought I would share it with you. I hope you enjoy it.
