craziest beatle interview ive ever read (playboy)
okay i'm high as fuck right now and have been rewinding Paul saying "What's the matter John, love, Blue Meanies?" at the end of Yellow Submarine over and over. also right after the way they make direct eye contact and paul instantly breaks after seeing johns face...
I think about this interview frequently.
Just a meme I made in honor of my new mclennon fanfic lmaoo 💗
Paul McCartney, backstage in 1976
by Harry Benson
-
Lennon's jealousy has found himself showing aggression towards McCartney's various girlfriends over the years.
Peggy Lipton: John snarled at her when Paul brought her to dinner with the Beatles.
Jane Asher: John has clashed with on multiple occasions.
Linda McCartney: John, in 1971, publicly declared was not, in his opinion, “particularly attractive."
-
In 1986, Paul recalls John asking him to not sleep with Yoko Ono.
PAUL: "I mean, he warned me off Yoko once. You know, “Look, this is my chick!” ’Cause he knew my reputation. I mean, we knew each other rather well. And um, I felt… I just said, “Yeah, no problem. But I did sort of feel he ought to have known I wouldn’t, but.. You know, he was going through “I’m just a jealous guy”. He was a paranoid guy. And he was into drugs. Heavy.”
-
Robert Rosen, who read the diaries in 1981 after Dakota employee Fred Seaman stole them, was shocked to find that Lennon wrote about Paul "almost every day."
ROSEN: "Obviously I knew about the rivalry with McCartney, and the jealousy, but I think the extent of it... how often he thought about McCartney, and how jealous he was... I found that pretty shocking."
-
PAUL: I understood what happened when he first met Yoko. He had to clear the decks of his old emotions. He went through all his old affairs, confessed them all. Me and Linda did that when we first met. You prove how much you love someone by confessing all the old stuff. John’s method was to slag me off.”
John slagged Paul off to.. prove his love to Yoko?
-
In regards to Lennon’s early-70s defacement of Paul’s McCartney’s wedding photo,
PAUL: “Well, I mean, I think that starts to show the sort of pain he was going through. I think… […] If someone took your wedding photo and put ‘funeral’ on it [as he did on that manuscript], you’d tend to feel a bit sorry for the guy. You’d think, wait a minute.”
-
I was dreaming of the past,
and my heart was beating fast.
I was feeling insecure,
you might not love me anymore.
PAUL: [John] wrote ‘I’m Just A Jealous Guy’ and he said that the song was about me.
John: [about his haircut] I've had it on and off for five years. Paul: Yeah. You should've seen it off.
John lives AU
In his seventies, Paul finds RPF about them. Despite being horrified at first, he gradually starts reading more and more, and learns to understand himself and his relationship with John.
He explains to John and they have sweet old-man sex about it.
