Paul McCartney & John Lennon 1968 Full Interview

[vashna3799]

Significant about this interview it was John's last Pre-Yoko moment , a month later they hooked up and he changed for good

[letslennon]

gawd i laugh so hard when larry asks to Paul about LSD and John was like ''oh!'' hahaha

[HEARTHEANGELSVOICES]

I DON'T BELIEVE THESE GUYS LIKED "LARRY" VERY MUCH DO YOU?

[MercuryWest]

baked

[gleicirib]

How I love them!

[beatlesaregod1964]

Ohh when Paul says "it's a drag" at 4:04... my heart kinda broke.

[kirbygene]

I notice in these old clips how often John cracked Paul up. "They go to a company and get shown into the waste-paper bin" John is just whip smart. Interviewer: "is he on the level?" John: "I don't know what level he's on"

[AnnieKCleary]

ugh... my heart broke a little when they brought up assassination.

[vveeeeee1]

john lennon is hilarious in this video omg

[CtrlRm]

This interviewer is a typical prick cocksucker.

[sirmelancholia]

@CtrlRm That typical prick was good friends with John and Paul.

[TELEVISIONARCHIVES]

They had no idea on how to run a business. They almost went broke because of Apple

[MrsRhythmNation]

Have they done the White Album at this point? Or working on it perhaps?

[Bummelumm]

@MrsRhythmNation I think this interview was done on May 13, 1968. They started recording the album on May 30, 1968.

[MrsRhythmNation]

@Bummelumm Thanks for the info!

[juicyjeas]

paul @ 7:49

[mindtoonz262]

lol Larry

[lilmizzallyfull]

My heart dropped when assassination was brought up.... I only wish at 6:56 the reporter didn't cut off what John said... "assassination is..." We will never know his thoughts on the matter... :'C R.I.P

[applegirldi]

They keep it increadibly real.

[therealalexanderslit]

this was after the break-up ^

[Quarrymen69]

Awesome! They are high as a kite.

[TrollFredrik]

"The journey was terrible... But the trip was alright!"

Yeah I bet it was.

[general18089]

the Beatles wernt men, they wernt musicians, they wernt famous, they wher your older brothers. John was the jerk who would always be cooler than you, but once and a while he'd persuade mum into letting him take you out on the town at night. George was the clever, distant one who knocked on your bedroom door for your headphones. Ringo told you your first dumb pick up line and played drums up stairs and kept you up all night. Paul was the one you hugged.

[Talisman09]

@general18089 Ringo was the one who bummed you senseless

[LermanProductions]

@general18089 You don't know anything about The Beatles besides the caricatures made by their movies. John Lennon gave a wonderful interview about people who thought of The Beatles in the way you do and he explained how misrepresented each one of them was. You should reconsider your analogy.

[letslennon]

@general18089 ''Paul was the one you hugged.'' oh yeah, and then he takes you till bed yknow

[dtbllover14]

when paul winked at the camera i died

[vmackey11]

I love it, how many times did John say Larry in this? It's like he's doing it on purpose.

[scob62]

john protects paul

[SetantaCovenant]

Lennon tries hard to be 'funny Beatle' John but it's Paul, with his comment at 7.30 who is actually funnier, in a Pythonesque sort of way.

[chillerized]

They sure did get another fella John

[thechicat]

Who is the guy interviewing them? it's not Larry King? is it?

[1northampton]

@thechicat It's Larry Kane.

[TheWelshCelt]

lennon is awesome!!

[jaokguy]

gosh i never realized how much lennon needed to get a laugh.

[marguitar1]

Two geniuses right there!

[curtismoff]

john lennon was always so quick witted after his deportation hearing in NYC when asked by first reporter a simple question john said " time wounds all heals " I remember getting on the school bus 10 grade and hearing Lennon was murdered in front of his home I cried along with many others.The Death of my Hero Elvis affected me the same way I had just seen him in june I think with my Aunt who was more like a mother Indy 1977 I think I was 14 She had seen him many times sung his heart out always

[wings4ever]

Pau Mccartney has writen the music of my life ...l

[Talisman09]

@wings4ever No, Lennon wrote 'in my life'

[SuperNevile]

Ah "Magic" Alex ~ total scam artist.

[ilsy74]

When the media man asks a question its a drag... when john dies its a drag.... Paul you are a pepperpot. Not a real person.

[douchecock427]

"yea we just got a friend of ours whos in electronics. ill tell you about this jim. he was called alex. and hes great hes a great fellow. hes invented incredible things. so, uh, thatll be big." -Paul McCartney.

[powergirl901]

What's the matter with Sir Paul's lip?

[Piggisization]

@powergirl901 Car's accident !

[MountainsOfHate]

John Lennon is kinda unintelligent man wow

[douchecock427]

@MountainsOfHate u realize he was fuckin peaking in this and every interview. you try doing that shit on acid. see how u do.

[ricman3]

NILSSON!:)



[M1t20]

How big will it be?

John.. "we're just blowing up the baloons" hahahaha

[luvablerukel07]

Appppppllllllllleeeeeesssss

[susie96mjfan]

I think...they got HUGE ..I mean amazingly HUGE and they just couldn't get bigger with four different visions.

[maccalex]

John's sideboards are uneven.

[mdunct]

Lorne Michaels (producer of Saturday Night Live) approached his audience with an address to the Beatles. He said the producers of SNL were prepared to write the Beatles a five thousand dollar check if they agreed to perform a few songs. The joke being - why would the Beatles even bother for five thousand dollars. John and Paul were watching that episode and thought it would be funny to take them up on that offer. If they had, it would have been their last live performance.

[PaulyWally4576]

I love how paul says "and its sometimes painful"! So cute! :))) 3:35

[EMBpodcast]

thanks Ignazio2693 for posting this! 

[cocacolacriminal]

It's so funny that they keep calling him by his first name: Larry.

[Lmusik00futL]

-How's Ringo? How's George?

-Lovely

-Very healthy

... lol hahahaha looks like they didn't had any interest in this interview

[audiotrax2000]

Worst interviewer ever. The guy could make any conversation fall flat like a lead balloon. How did he ever get into that line of work? John and Paul are trying their best to do his job for him here.

[dcanjura123]

does anybody notice the scar on pauls lip becuase of surgery

[thechicat]

@dcanjura123 Yes, it's from a moped accident.

[WanagiAkicita]

27. He only has 13 years ahead of him. So tragic.

My gut feeling is that the Beatles would've put out an album in the mid-80's, long about the time of the "When We Was Fab" kick, and in 1990 would embrace the inevitability of their Beatleness, to work together fulltime, like the Stones. What awesomeness did we miss? We can't know.

I read about what they're talking about here, in the Schaffer book, They got so many submissions, they couldn't screen them all, so had to chuck them. Ironic.

[impassable]

Hawkeye Pierce and B J Honeycut

[1080portal]

why is one sitting on a higher level than the other? rivalry? or retarded chair

[Nagsworth]

charming lads ain't they, and high as kites to boot. wonderful footage.

[beatlesbabe27]

how ironic is is that they are talking to john about assassination?

[KhalDrogo76]

they were on speed and a mild psychedelic for this trip to the states from what i've read

[Wendz61]

Love to see any kind of live film of John & Paul speaking together, before the breakup....

[fromjuanotojohny]

This is kinda trippy

[seeker6087]

some ppl don't like other ppl bc they're not the same. WOW! WISDOM! :)

[seeker6087]

so much love btwn the 2 :) i can feel it!

[seeker6087]

sooo lucky to still have 1.

[SaintJorge304]

9:06- 9:16 : John looks at Faul very peculiar while Faul seems very unrelated to the past moment that John was referring to in France and Faul replies weirdly: "That's what happened, that's what happened" and John with a look of hate and pain on his face says: "It was just sort of getting a foot-hold in the market, but not getting your whole head right in sort of way". Yeah. Also look at Faul's hair part. It's on his right side of his head hear when he from a child and up to 1966, was his left.

[BigCroak419]

@SaintJorge304 you can tell that John has no respect towards him and its supposed to be his best friend. I know Paul died. When I was weird I could never tell Pauls voice, thats cuz it was different. When i watched Paul is Dead dvd it blew my mind. I listend and looked at everything. theres only one conclusion. RIP Paul, it says it in Magical Mystery tour booklet. Also look at a clear as day picture of faul in that booklet

[jonesrebel]

haha, oh god, I fucking love John.

[Leofox94]

@jonesrebel But god doesn't exist lol, no need to mention god I guess. I love john too.

[Farquharson64]

two stoned scousers start a firm.....

[MitchellQuinn1]

I love these guys, they refuse to take half the questions seriously!

[middleschoolrules180]

Reporter: "What do you see in the years ahead?"

John: "Apple!"

[thevillainable]

Good to see Paul high, enjoying himself.

[scottslaught]

Insightful. thanks for the upload!

[vashna3799]

they were just the complete foil for each other ,one a biting sardonic wit ,the other a breezy optimistic charmer

[1dominic1000]

@nintend0productions2

Paul died yeard ago man, his soul is not in the same place as it was in the 60's during his time with the Beatles. Its like he forgot all he learnt about the world and the universe through making music, and taking lsd and smoking pot, and making music (yes said it again)...if only Paul could see what he left behind

[EMILYLEAH100]

@1dominic1000 he hasnt smked pot for a long time and hes older now hes 70 he just needs to settle down abit now he physically can not manage much more he goes on a few tours but not much because he cant he needs to settle down hes done his fair share of good music now its someone elses turn now

[TheMeanSgtPlaysPiano]

@EMILYLEAH100 In this age, Paul has still yet to be replaced.

[EMILYLEAH100]

@TheMeanSgtPlaysPiano true but there is some really good singers aswell

[dahMusicDude]

Nothing that Pauls says here really means anything, and John is incredibly unpleasant.

[KNels1114]

I love the way John and Paul laugh

[Hockeyplaya4567890]

Paul is high as fuck xD

[douchecock427]

@Hockeyplaya4567890 they both are..... they always were....

[thegigonroof86]

Is John saying "Wonderwall" at 4:04??!?

[did13frico]

Lennon/McCartney, c'est juste la plus grande paire d'auteurs compositeurs du XXeme siècle... What else?

[omarkaya42]

Love John's reaction to "just people from Liverpool," at 7:48. The interviewer is, in his own word, "on the outside looking in."

[magpieeye]

The Bubble will NEVER burst!

[kkkaatiee]

He only had 13 years left to live

[childintime12]

@nintend0productions2 The Beatles are the best band of all time. Im just telling you that Paul died after Help album and was replaced by the fool or should i say Faul in this video. Look it John despises this guy. He is an idiot. He sings bad and has plastic surgery. Look into it yourself. RIP PAUL

[TheSarna8]

@childintime12 och really ????????? idiot it was lennon , !!!!!!!!!!!and idiot maybe is you , so consists that Paul is thousand times normal , than lennon , lennon was totaly freak !!!!!!!! Faul you !!!!!!!!!!and RIP LENNON !!!!!!!!!, and such is the fackt , faul for you , and RIPLENNON , Paul always be one of the most important artist in music history and you are ordinary gray man ,which does not grow him to heel !!

[isa0ber]

The Beatles should be immortals, you know, since they're basically gods.

[1dominic1000]

@isa0ber they are immortal man, they will live on forever. through all of their music and art and everything else they are and stood for

[1dominic1000]

they are immortal man. they will (and have) liived on forever through their music, their art, the way they (especially George and John) presented themselves to the world and the reasons they did. The Beatles , and every other great artist (Jimi FKN Hendrix for example) are immortal... their soul, their essence lives on forever by what they left behind (aka music and art). In the words of John and it is still true to this day: The Beatles are bigger than Jesus.

[isa0ber]

@1dominic1000 That comment there was awesome, surely from a true Beatles fan :,)

[childintime12]

go listen to Oh darling and why dont we do it in the road once and if you think thats good singing i will smack you with my virtual weiner

[HTprods]

@childintime12 Why is there this arguing about John and Paul? If you don't like the Beatles, get off a Beatles video. Paul's singing in Oh! Darling is brilliant, actually.

[childintime12]

@HTprods maybe you should listen to his terrible screaming in the middle of it.

[HTprods]

@childintime12 That's a real rock voice. You are missing the point completely. As I said, if you don't like the Beatles, stop commenting on a Beatles video because you're going to face alot of opposition.

[childintime12]

@HTprods No its bad. Listen to Paul before 1965 and then after 1966. ALl of sudden Ringo became a better dsinger than him. ALso watch this interview he acts like an idiot and John does not respect him. If you knew anything then you would know Paul was cool but now he isnt. RIP PAUL

[RonniLane]

@childintime12 youd act stupid too if you were higher than a kite

[iClubMidgets]

I'm trying to figure out who's the asshole here. I think it might be John. But fuck Larry. I don't know. Paul seems kind of opinionated. BABY YOU CAN DRIVE MY CAR!

[childintime12]

Look at this fool on the hill. Paul is really dead. Look into it.

[vmanbeatles]

@childintime12 go die

[TheSarna8]

@childintime12 you is totaly moron , it lennon is dead , not Paul ,Paul is life !!!!!!!so stop fucking !stop fucking all the quit ,!!!!!!! idiots !!!!!!

[Lovemyselfidoes81]

7:55-8:11 when The Beatles were together Reporters would ask them "hey you ever think about going out on your own and braking up" and when they Broke up the question was always "When are the Beatles getting back together?" fuck man you can't please the media

[ixdfromme2]

Are they Scottish they have an accent. . I mean other than regulate bittish

[goldendome10383]

The discussion of assassination is eery

[tpstrat14]

john lennon seems like a douchebag of sorts... fabulous musician though..

[h44512]

OH MY GOD I WISH I WAS ALIVE IN THE 60S D:

[Wade3Brad6TV]

I love how quick-witted john was! He could cut you up with a click of the fingers! Happy Birthday John!

[readingandwriting]

Wow that part when they said "no we're beatles" That's just so...Q~Q

[efyfe]

I like this Paul the best.

[cmcgarth1O]

the journey was terrible...but the trip was alright

[matchbox555]

apple was the first internet

[manni62]

"we were manufacturing it." ha ha haaaaa John was a pisser...

[Albert18264]

I always wonder if Paul is going to wake up one morning and go WHAT THE FUCK I'M PAUL McCARTNEY , because in all the years he's been a super star he has never let it go to his head .

[twodudets123]

Paul doesn't seem all the way there haha....

[TaserTracks]

John comes off as really annoying because he refused be serious no matter what question is asked and he hogs the conversation, constantly cutting off Paul and interrupting him. I felt like saying "come on, John to knock it off". John could be a jerk at times.

[Ghoopty]

@TaserTracks It's because the interviewer was such a conservative, staid individual and John was impatient with him. But yeah, John could be wonderful and awful, sweet and sour, direct and evasive, mellow and violent, yin & yang.

[cocoskanin]

I want to spam 'I love you I love you I love you I love you' but no one will ever understand how much I love them anyways. (Even though there are people who love them just as much as I do, it's so weird.) When Paul winks at the camera, and John's laughter after that... I can't do anything else but cry. How can some people be so amazing!?

[Mashulik95]

"We've got TV back home now" - I love John's humour

[fizzyclown]

Paul's laugh makes me smile :)

[KenzieLynnCovers]

@JoyNoelle8H hahaa. absolutley not.(: John's hilarious, and Paul is very sexy. <3

[shadowshart1]

paul, dont ever die.

[daftpunk4908]

Pauls wink made my whole day!!! -3

[lmos26]

hah paul looks high as fuck

[mothafuckajones666]

@lmos26

he looks faced as shit

[TheSarna8]

@mothafuckajones666 maybe it lennon looks faced as shit !!!!!!!!

[sheltiepaws1]

@JoyNoelle8H , I also enjoy his humor:)

Very intelligent man:)

[MICHAELJACKSONISGOD3]

But like all the profits wont go into our pocket, they will go to help people. But not like a charity. Oh, you hipsters you. :)

[grevejp44]

i'm not a gay man nor am i a woman, so i can't say paul is sexy. but his music is.

[WaY2CoNfUsEd13]

I like how Larry asks, "Do you miss the big crowds?"

And John says, "No, I dont miss them at all Larry. Five looks quite big to me nowadays. Me eyes are going 20/70 now."

[MokieKaiba11]

Paul looks sexy when he's stoned btw(;

[cocoskanin]

@MokieKaiba11 Name one time he's not sexy.

[Beatles4ever9]

frankly i like the part were the dude says kinda like th christ situation and john looks away like i have no idea what ur talking about

[Beatles4ever9]

@JoyNoelle8H hey i laughed too did u notice how paul made his eyes real big

[MokieKaiba11]

'It's a drag' Says Paul-333

[TheMelissabf]

Its more noticable paul is way more stoned than john in this interview

[wizardsudoku]

Mark those words ladies and gents. Mark those words...

[AaronBuzzer]

paul said in anthology that he was high on grass here, but he still did very well

[hnjowilliams]

It's a drag, says Paul

[m88m88m88]

Does anybody out there have the 1968 David Frost Interview/ Paul Hosting the Show ? I saw it as a child when it aired but never online. I only found one reference to it in the David Frost Archives. And it's not the Beatles Performing Hey Jude either, it was Paul alone in a Sweater talking to Guest..., In Color.

[HIGHTOP2345]

Money kills everything

[spacemeddle]

I think they just might be high

[vandoren59]

Love these guys!

[soxas5675]

they are high as fuck

[susieinthesky98]

i love the way paul laughs

[Albert18264]

@ 7.47 In all the time you've been Beatles before you were just people from Liverpool , lol John liked that one too .

[21joedaddy]

is this larry king??

[Catlovertea4]

This clip makes clearer the intensity behind John's statement at time of break-up when he said, "I want a divorce." And although he, ay have wanted a change, I still don't think he meant it.

[Catlovertea4]

6:49 - 7:07... eerie.. but then, so was Lennon's, "Free As A Bird." Miss him. Miss them together.

[ccaarroolliinnee1000]

I loved Paul's suit. it's just amazing, and he looked so sexy in it...

[scEOIN]

I got chills when John talked about assassination.

[dwoac6595]

"you know"... oh paul

[CookieRocksTheWorld]

@dwoac6595 It's so cute when he says that! :)

[Butown]

their prime

[Zimnyification]

Why didn't they just say, "WE HAVE TO MAKE THIS COMPANY BECAUSE THE CUNTS IN PARLIAMENT WILL TAKE ALL OUR MONEY." and be done with it?

[54321nicolaskurtf]

"the journey was terrible but the trip was alright" lololol!

[nickjjismyhusband]

I wish i was alive in the 60's.

[Quarryman99]

They're so great together. :D

[MsStrawberryfields1]

Paul totally winked at me...
