The Beatles - When I'm Sixty-Four
Από το Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band των "The Beatles" [1967]
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
When I get older losing my hair,
Many years from now.
Will you still be sending me a valentine
Birthday greetings bottle of wine.
If I'd been out till quarter to three
Would you lock the door,
Will you still need me, will you still feed me,
When I'm sixty-four.
You'll be older too,
And if you say the word,
I could stay with you.
I could be handy, mending a fuse
When your lights have gone.
You can knit a sweater by the fireside
Sunday mornings go for a ride,
Doing the garden, digging the weeds,
Who could ask for more.
Will you still need me, will you still feed me,
When I'm sixty-four.
Every summer we can rent a cottage,
In the Isle of Wight, if it's not too dear
We shall scrimp and save
Grandchildren on your knee
Vera Chuck & Dave
Send me a postcard, drop me a line,
Stating point of view
Indicate precisely what you mean to say
Yours sincerely, wasting away
Give me your answer, fill in a form
Mine for evermore
Will you still need me, will you still feed me,
When I'm sixty-four.

Paul McCartney & Wings Band on The Run
Από το Band on the Run [1973]
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
Stuck inside these four walls, sent inside forever,
Never seeing no one nice again like you,
Mama you, mama you.
If i ever get out of here,
Thought of giving it all away
To a registered charity.
All i need is a pint a day
If i ever get out of here.
Well, the rain exploded with a mighty crash as we fell into the sun,
And the first one said to the second one there i hope you're having fun.
Band on the run, band on the run.
And the jailer man and sailor sam were searching every one
For the band on the run, band on the run, band on the run, band on the run
Well, the undertaker drew a heavy sigh seeing no one else had come,
And a bell was ringing in the village square for the rabbits on the run.
Band on the run, band on the run.
And the jailer man and sailor sam, were searching every one
For the band on the run, band on the run, band on the run, band on the run
Well, the night was falling as the desert world began to settle down.
In the town they're searching for us every where, but we never w ill be found.
Band on the run, band on the run
And the county judge, who held a grudge
Will search for evermore
For the band on the run, band on the run, band on the run, band on the run

Paul McCartney - No more lonely nights
Από το Give My Regards to Broad Street [1984]
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
I can wait another day until I call you
You've only got my heart on a string
And everything a'flutter
But another lonely night might take forever
We've only got each other to blame
It's all the same to me love
'Cause I know what I feel to be right
No more lonely nights
No more lonely nights
You my guiding light
Day or night I'm always there
May I never miss the thrill of being near you
And if it takes a couple of years
To turn your tears to laughter
I will do what I feel to be right
No more lonely nights (never be another)
No more lonely nights
You my guiding light
Day or night I'm always there
And I won't go away until you tell me so
No, I'll never go away
Yes, I know what I feel to be right
No more lonely nights (never be another)
No more lonely nights
You my guiding light
Day or night I'm always there
And I won't go away until you tell me so
No, I'll never go away
And I won't go away until you tell me so
No, I'll never go away
No more lonely nights

Paul McCartney - Ever Present Past
Το 1ο single από το πρόσφατο lp του P.M. "Memory Almost Full " για τις Η.Π.Α.
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
I've got too much on my plate
Don't have no time to be a decent lover
I hope it isn't too late
Searching for the time that has gone so fast
The time that I thought would last
My Ever Present Past
I've got too much on my mind
I think of everything to be discovered
I hope there's something to find
Searching for the time that has gone so fast
The time that I thought would last
My Ever Present Past
[Chorus:]
The things I think I did
I do, I think I did
The things I think I did
When I was a kid
[Bridge:]
I couldn't understand a word that they were saying
But still I hung around and took it all in
I wouldn't join in with the games that they were playing
It went by, it went by, in a flash
It flew by, it flew by, in a flash
[Guitar solo]
There's far too much on my plate
Don't have no time to be a decent lover
I hope it's never too late
Searching for the time that has gone so fast
The time that I thought would last
My Ever Present Past
The things I think I did
I do, I think I did
The things I think I did
When I was a kid
The things I think I did
I do, I think I did
The things I think I did
When I was a kid, when I was a kid

Μερικοί άνθρωποι πάλι ότι χαζομάρα δεν έκαναν στα νιάτα τους την κάνουν μεγαλώνοντας (εννοώ τα γενικότερα ξεκατινιάσματα με τις bimbos που βγαίνει/ παντρεύεται/ διάφορα χαζά από τότε που έχασε τη Linda), αλλά τι να λέμε τώρα για τον Paul -ό,τι ακούω σήμερα βασίστηκε πάνω του! Στην solo καριέρα του σχεδόν τίποτα δε με άγγιξε βαθιά, αλλά είχαν τρελή χημεία με τον Lennon, μιλάμε δεν υπάρχουν δυο ίδια τραγούδια των Beatles, είναι απίστευτο! ΥΓ1: Είσαι από τους λίγους που ξεχωρίζους τις χροιές -έχω φίλους που δε μπορούν να καταλάβουν ποιος Κατσιμίχας απ' τους δυο τραγουδάει, όχι ποιο απ' τα Σκαθάρια! :) ΥΓ2: Ι love "when I'm 64"!
ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήΑν και το no more lonely nights μου αρέσει πολύ - μου θυμίζει beatles...
ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήΝαι μετά το χαμό της Linda χάλασε πολύ την εικόνα του. Στη σόλο καριέρα του δεν είχε πράγματι πάντα δουλειές ανάλογες της αξίας του, αντίθετα με το Lennon του οποίου οι καλές στιγμές ήταν αναλογικά περισσότερες. Πάντως είναι σίγουρα πολυγραφότατος μουσικά και σε κάποιες στιγμές όπως το Νo More Lonely Nights δείχνει το ταλέντο του.
