@Stevesk0011 The one that's supposed to be himself is way over the top. He overdid it, like if Shatner was doing the pauses and drama faces on purpose, and at 150% output.
Oh wait, wrong Paul McCartney Coming Up. Uh, yeah, that's not the same bass he started with.
I love him and he's over 64! LOL When he did that song all those years ago it seemed so old "When I'm 64" ♥♥♥ Now I'm turing 60!!! YIKES! This is one of my favs! Comin Up Like Flower!!!
HOW THE HELL DOES MACCA CREATE THE BRASS FOR ' COMING UP' IN A LIVE SETTING LIKE THAT LIVE IN NEW YORK ON TOP OF A BALCONY? I'VE ALWAYS BEEN A HUGE FAN I DO APPRECIATE LENNON AS WELL BUT REALLY LOVE MACCA WHEN HE DOES NUMBERS LIKE 'COMING UP' & 'GET BACK' ETC ETC
@walker55able It was done with synthesizers. Which is how Paul did it on the studio version on McCartney II in 1980. In the original live version, there was an actual horn section playing on stage with Wings in 1979.
John Lennon cites this song as one of the reasons he wanted to record again,he really digged it.If you listen to," I dont wanna face it." by John shades of influence there.
I don't understand how things work in america... You can see cars and cabs passing 50 meters far from the stage and they seems don't know what is going on.. anyway.. this will live forever..
@fcastro04 yeah i was thinkin the same thing some people are just stupid i mean they are in front of the living legend .. and the most amazing successfull musician in histyr and they are like ..w tf is going on??
DO IT BABY PAULIE! PETER GUNN IT NEAR THE END! I couldn't have said it better myself at the very end..."THERE IS NO OFF POSITION ON THE GENIUS SWITCH!" OW OW OW! YAAAAAYYYYY UH!
@snoogans999 Some of Dave's bigger name musical acts who are so inclined will perform several more songs after the show taping is over. The performance is recorded and put on the Late Show's web site in a section called "Live on Letterman".
It's not just the music, anyone who lived through the beatles era must also point out that life was different, it was so humane no nastyness to one other,that is what people of my age remember and love.
Paul is using his 1963 Hofner bass which is the same one he used on the Ed Sullivan Show in this same theatre.....over 4 decades ago. Amazing! Rock on Paul!
Paul you still put on a hell of a show.

I'm convinced that this band he's had together for the last decade is THE best backup band to EVER play behind him.

From a distance that could pass for the original bass, but up close, it's not.

look at his bass playing at 2:14, great version of coming up because it's a little bit different compared to other live versions.
