OOO Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 U2, then bob dylan, and now Paul McCartney has an iTunes ad. (you may have to scroll down a bit to see it) I'm not complaining. I like Apple Inc. AND Apple Corp. He looks mildly creepy at times in the video though Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tongue-tied Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Here I am listening to Please Please Me on my headphones while watching the Colbert Report, and Paul's commercial comes on. My mind is spinning. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Welsh Rich Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 I thought he was good on Jools Holland last week in the UK, especially taking the piss out of Jools for his piano playing on other peoples tracks... But he has gone to look a bit scary - rumours abound about him having a wig and it's not his own hair! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tjr Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 For me at least, Mccartney peaked at this moment: Chris Farley: Um, hi. Welcome to The Chris Farley Show. I'm.. Chris Farley.. and, my guest tonight is.. one of the.. greatest musicians.. uh, rock musicians. I guess, songwriter, ever. [ Smacks himself ] GOD! That sounds stupid! God, I'm an idiot! I never know how to start these things! Paul McCartney: You're doing great, Chris. Chris Farley: [ hopeful ] Really? No, I'm not. [ hyperventilating ] Anyway.. I guess.. I didn't have, have to say, who you were, because.. man, I mean.. everyone knows who you are. Mmm.. you're Paul McCartney. Paul McCartney: Well, it's great to be here. Chris Farley: [ uncomfortable ] You.. you.. you remember when you were with The Beatles? Paul McCartney: Yeah, sure. Chris Farley: That was awesome! Paul McCartney: Yeah, it was. Chris Farley: O-kay.. Oh! You.. you remember when you went to Japan.. and, uh, and at the airport they arrested you 'cause you had some pot, and.. it made all the papers, and everything..? Paul McCartney: Well, to be honest, Chris, I'd kind of like to forget all of that. Chris Farley: [ smacks himself harder ] IDIOT!! That's so stupid! What a dumb question!! Paul McCartney: No, no, no, Chris. I get asked that all the time in interviews. Maria Shriver asked the same question last week. Chris Farley: Really? [ pause ] Did you know that she's married to Arnold Schwartzenegger? Paul McCartney: Yeah. I've heard that. Chris Farley: Did you see "Terminator"? Paul McCartney: No, I missed that one. Chris Farley: That was a pretty awesome flick. [ pause ] O-kay.. remember.. you remember when you were with The Beatles, and you were supposed to be dead, and, uh, there was all these clues, that, like, uh, you played some song backwards, and it'd say, like, "Paul Is Dead", and, uh, everyone thought that you were dead? That was, um, a hoax, right? Paul McCartney: Yeah. I wasn't really dead. Chris Farley: Right. I think we.. I think we got time for one more question. Uh.. remember when you were in The Beatles? And, um, you did that album Abbey Road, and at the very end of the song, it would.. the song goes, "And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make"? You.. you remember that? Paul McCartney: Yes. Chris Farley: Uh.. is that true? Paul McCartney: Yes, Chris. In my experience, it is. I find, the more you give, the more you get. Chris Farley [ ecstatic, starts to point at Paul and mouth "AWESOME!" ] Well, that's it for this week's show. Thank you, Paul McCartney, thank you, for being one of the greatest.. of rock.. I mean, a living legend. And uh, a legend of rock and roll.. and.. just thanks for being on the show, and.. [ smacks himself even harder ] GOD DANGIT! That sounded stupid! I knew I'd screw up! Paul McCartney: You did fine, you did fine, Chris. Chris Farley: Really? Thanks, man. Thanks. Thank you. [ Outro music comes on, Chris continues to talk to Paul ] Remember.. remember when I was talking to you about "The Terminator"? You.. you should see that movie, it's pretty cool.. [ Paul nods his head ] Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Duck-Billed Catechist Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Don't know if he's wearing a wig, but it looks like he's had some work done. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OOO Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 He definitely had some work done, imho. Also, he's playing for about 500 people today at Amoeba records. I wasn't going to wait 2 days outside for him, and I didn't win the contest for tickets so... poo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Analogman Posted October 18, 2007 Author Share Posted October 18, 2007 McCartney Re-Release I thought Starbucks was supposed to be a whole new paradigm, a whole new way to expose and sell music. An alternative to the big box retailers that don Quote Link to post Share on other sites
