Sir Paul McCartney just revealed what he would tell his The Beatles members, John Lennon and George Harrison.
When he was asked what he would tell both his deceased friends, McCartney simply replied, “I would say I love you, because growing up in Liverpool you never said that. You never told a guy you loved him, unless he was like your brother or something, and they were brothers.”
This sentimental snippet of an interview is featured in the Beatles ’64 documentary that was released on Friday, November, 22, 2024, exploring the sixties’ Beatlemania and how it grew sensationally across America.
McCartney continued, “When we came America had been in mourning. It was quite shortly after Kennedy had been assassinated, maybe America needed something like The Beatles to lift it out of mourning and just sort of say, life goes on, the joy you see in these audiences, is like being lifted out of sorrow.”
The iconic rock star is then seen looking at a photo of his own childhood home at an exhibition where he mentions, “Me and John (Lennon) could just sit around writing stuff, we’d written the song She Loves You in the next room, and my dad was in the other room, so we came in to play it to him, for the first time. She Loves You, yeah yeah yeah, and he’s at the end of it, he said, ‘boys it’s very nice but couldn’t you sing she loves you yes, yes, yes?’”
