Mccartney Quotations

'I Want To Hold Your Hand' is a great classic by Paul McCartney and John Lennon, I sure love that song. I did like the classic version, a rock-oriented song, then someone heard me do it with the Grant Green approach - Grant Green and Larry Young did it, with a bossa nova beat on the funky side.

One of my initial memories of being taken over by music was watching Paul McCartney on TV play a tribute to John Lennon. He was playing piano by himself and singing 'Imagine,' and I remember feeling an anxiety and shortness of breath.

I have a Stella McCartney Adidas sports bra. I feel like I'm totally comfortable running. No problem. I have support where I need it.

I would have loved to record with Paul McCartney on some of his early solo recordings, wonderful music. Playing some lovely organ, perhaps. I would have loved to record with John Lennon. He was a dear friend. I had lunch with him just two days before he died.

Paul McCartney and The Beatles in general are my idols. And I love Sting. I got to meet Sting. That was really cool. Dustin Hoffman is my favorite actor. Also, I think of Magic Johnson as an idol.

Lennon and McCartney have the best catalogue of songs ever produced. It will never be surpassed.

I taught myself to play the guitar by listening to Paul Simon records, working it out note by note. He is an incredibly intelligent musician. He's not someone who has a natural outpouring of melody like McCartney or Dylan, who are just terribly prolific with musical ideas.

I don't want to interview people. I want to have a conversation. I want to talk to Paul McCartney about the bass sound on 'The White Album.'

We are potentially looking at tens of thousands of pounds. The Hirst and the McCartney are star lots.

McCartney and the Stones alone really helped drive up ticket prices.

I can also report that it is raining in Victoria and Balham. What we need is some weather control to ensure the rain reaches the Oval. Where's Paul McCartney when you need him? If he zapped a few clouds for a stupid concert he can certainly do the same when there is sporting glory at stake.

I don't usually get star struck, but I met Sir Paul McCartney randomly on Sunset Boulevard a few years ago, and I lost it! I couldn't breathe, I couldn't think, and I didn't know how to speak. It was crazy. He was nice enough to talk to my family and me for 10 minutes, but I remember babbling away about nonsense.

I think it's entirely possible to have a career in fashion and raise a child. Stella McCartney is on her fourth child and remains both a fashion icon and a great mom.

I support the McCartney family. I support their demand for justice. I think that there is an onus upon everyone who can help, to help. So good luck to them. And when I go back home I will continue to work on their behalf.

I support the McCartney family. I support their demand for justice,

Paul McCartney would be the end all, be all. To work with Paul would just be amazing.

Stella McCartney is just the coolest show to do. I love the collection. I love the setting. All of her stuff always feels so fresh.

You don't normally see three huge acts like that out touring in the same year. McCartney and The Stones alone really helped drive up ticket prices.

With Paul McCartney last year in Jacksonville, the decisions had all been made early, he'd rehearsed it many, many times, and as a result, it was a very clean kind of coverage. Here, it's a very different kind of group. You don't necessarily know what they're going to do. There's more moving around, more raw energy, more unpredictability. There's no question that's going to make my job more difficult.

And though people think about Lennon and McCartney as sort of the A-list of Beatles and George as filling in a spot, he was remarkable guitar player, tremendous songwriter, and he really shaped a lot of the direction of where the band went,

I've been around a lot of celebrities, and I've been fortunate to be around great artists. It's extraordinarily rare that someone is who you want them to be. Paul McCartney is that person. He's the guy we all dreamed of meeting.

A few nights ago, we catered a private party for Paul McCartney and his road crew 40 pizzas.

They're trying to tell our family: Shut up or this is going to happen again. The McCartney family opened a lot of eyes in Belfast.

A lot of people outside Ireland are seeing the message sent home to Sinn Fein is that it's not just the McCartney sisters expecting justice, it's the whole world.

I told McCartney he'd needed me all the time,

I love Stella McCartney because she's timeless and classic, and I love Isabel Marant for wearability - you don't need 'an occasion' for her clothes.

A lot of young artists don't realize that it is a business. But the acts who survive over the years are the ones who take care of the business end of performing. Mick Jagger does it, so does Paul McCartney and Bob Dylan. They know how to sell and promote themselves and their music. They understand the financial end of this business.
