Crying sobbing shitting on the floor
“As I continue to write my own songs, I’m still very conscious that I don’t have him around, but I still have him whispering in my ear after all these years. I’m often second-guessing what John would’ve thought - ‘this is too soppy’ - or what he would’ve said differently, so I sometimes change it. But that’s what being a songwriter is about; you have to be able to look over your own shoulder”
“ I have to do this by myself these days. And if anyone asks me what I was like to work with John, the truth was it was easier - much easier, because there were two minds at work. Mine would be doing this, his would be doing that, and the interplay was just miraculous. And that’s why people are still listening to the songs we wrote. They didn’t just go away like your average pop song. The climate that the two of us created in writing wasn’t a soppy pop song climate. We created an environment in which we might grow, try new things, maybe even learn a thing or two.”
“John is gone I can’t sit around sighing for the old days. I can’t sit around wishing he was still here. Not only can I not replace him, but I don’t need to, in some profound sense.”
- Paul McCartney in his new book ‘The Lyrics’ 2021
