Paul has so many perfect chord progressions I honestly couldn't guess which this would be before I watched the video. I would nominate "Michelle," "Penny Lane," and "Blackbird" as also having perfect chord progressions. That's just to name a few that I think are particularly elegant and creative.

Some of the simplest sounding ones are fascinating. The chords (and the way they're voiced on the guitar) of "Two of Us" are surprisingly complicated, and John and Paul play different chords that compliment each other, Paul sings the verses and high harmony, and there are lots of time signature changes (4/4, 2/4/ 3/4). But it seems utterly natural. The picking on "Mother Nature's Son" is hard to replicate because there are subtle changes in how he plays the chords and arpeggios that you have to study to get right. Paul, John, and george are underrated as guitar players even after 60 years. They rarely turn up at the top of "best guitarist" lists, but I think they should be.

Another hallmark of McCartney is while he’s playing chords primarily under his songs, he puts in little snippets of melody on the instrument. Not too much, just enough to accentuate in certain spots of the song. You hear this in certain piano-based songs of his, such as Hey Jude and the Long and Winding Road.

I really love these song deconstruction videos. Understanding why I love certain parts and progressions to my favorite songs is probably the single most enjoyable aspect of my guitar journey these days. I've known how to play this song for years, but sitting down early in the morning with my coffee, picking up my guitar, and just following along with you while you breakdown and analyze the song, part by part, is really fun and special for me. Keep up the great work and thanks for the video.

I’m coming on 71 y/o and have heard every Beatle song hundreds and hundreds of times over the years to the point where I just back off for a period of time. I listen to all genres of music from Miles and Coltrane to Country to Metal even hip hop now and then. Yet I always come back to the Beatles every now and then and it blows me away how fresh their music feels, to my ears anyway. Thanks Paul for stoking the fire of the wonder of these four lads yet again.

@@mikaelMMK It really was a special time. Every generation has great memories of the music they grow up with but prior to the Beatles, the pop charts were dominated by teen idol solo acts. When they appeared on Ed Sullivan in early 1964 it was truly an event. That appearance literally kicked the door down musically and a flood of amazing bands appeared seemingly out of nowhere, all inspired by that single event. The rest is history of course but it was clear even then that the Beatles were very special. What they accomplished in six short years is astonishing to this day. I would rate Revolver as my favourite album, absolutely ground breaking stuff. Tomorrow never knows, are you kidding me! When I first heard that cut I was gobsmacked. The progression of their music in a few years was mind blowing. As Elvis Costello said, artists are still trying to make that album today. So many great bands that I was able to see live in Vancouver where I grew up, Cream in 1968, Led Zeppelin 3 or four times, on and on. Keep searching out good music in all genres, it remains one of the great pleasures in my life.

Impeccable video! Shows how great of a melody writer McCartney is, when he talks about writing music I always get the idea he was primarily a "melody-first" writer, so he had the melody already and just had to work out chords to go underneath to support it, the opposite of how a lot of people are taught and how pop is written today. So in the end I feel like it's actually the melody that dictates the chords, and that pretty much all legendary songs were written this way too.
@grandadslads1911 7 ай бұрын
This is undoubtably the case. He’s told the story a few times of how he woke up with the melody one morning and quickly recorded his voice singing it, to the words “scrambled eggs, etc”. Then he went to various friends houses that morning, including John, asking if they’d ever heard the melody and they said they hadn’t. It took Paul a year of jumping in and out of the raw song, before he finished it while on holiday in Portugal.

I tried to get my daughter interested in guitar. I think it would be a good way to relax.

@@NewLifeWithGuitar I still vaguely remember my first learning experience with guitar. When I started you would just learn from friends by picking their brains and technique. Now, today, it's just crazy with all the incredible input. My first big achievement was learning, Needle and the Damage Done, by Neil Young. This was from a buddy who taught it to me, note for note, exactly like Neil played it. Very tough, I was about 4 months in, but there were times I'd play 10 hours a day... talk about sore fingers. I think the thing that always drove me mad, was everytime I finally thought I was the shit, someone would come along and put me back in my place. LOL Like you said and all of us know, we never stop learning. Good luck and pretty soon those calloused fingers feel no pain. I looked at your channel and you're making good progress.

When writing this song, before they had the actual lyrics written, and were just getting the chords and melody down.. The placeholder lyrics for this song were.. "Scrambled eggs, Oh my baby how I love your legs. Not as much as I love scrambled eggs" Not only is this hilarious, considering the tone of the song.. But also genius! The idea of using placeholder nonsense lyrics purely to aid in composition, and then deliver a solid framework for the real lyrics later, is an incredibly effective and efficient writing technique. I have never been a huge Beatles fan, but song-writing is definitely one thing those guys had in spades! There are only a handful of truly great songwriters. And even fewer compare to The Beatles... Bowie is another one, and definitely more my "thing", and he too had a really interesting song writing technique.

I'm compelled to try to understand what's going on. Still, with a song of this complexity, it's difficult to understand exactly what's happening harmonically. So I find this type of analysis to be fantastic as it's true "theory in practice'". I've always considering McCartney to be the king of melody, but wow, those chords are so tasty - just beautiful.
