I absolutely love this video. This audience is the most sincerely appreciative audience I have ever seen and the both the audience and the band are just so into it, it brings me to tears when I watch it. One of my favorite Beatles songs for sure.
Hey elfranken, yea your right never be optomistic. The crowd looked just like the crowd that greeted Nixon, Reagan, and all others. They tried and spent billions but Paul just showed up and played rock-n-roll, the universal language. Damn that Paul. Leave this shit to the know it alls. The ever knowing politicians. Your right, sorry.
It is a wonder what a little taste of freedom and a little rock-n-roll will do for a country that no yahoo politician could accomplish in decades. Paul the ambassador. Gotta love em.
It´s in Moscow Red Square, May 24, 2003 for 100.000 people. And if you like Paul I recommend to watch this historical show in the DVD Paul Mccartney in Red Square.
Absolutely brilliant. It brings me to the brink of tears to see people who were forced to live in a cultural vacuum enjoying themselves like this. If you doubt the power of music, just look at their faces.
If anyone could bring two peoples and cultures together for a while, its Sir Paul. Just look at the faces on the Russian people and how much fun their having. I don't see much difference between them and a crowd of concert goers here in Detroit. More good will and understanding came from one Mccartney show than a year full of deceit, lying, and misinformation by our two diplomatic envoys. Paul should receive the Noble Peace Prize for his continuing efforts of cultual understanding.

I would like all humans from the 'west' to look at the people in this audience and see how 'human' they look. I want you all to remember that the next time your government tells you how 'evil' (Russians or Iraqis or Iranians or Brits or Vietnamese) are...you remember that it is your government who is the evil and their real desire is money, not justice. We are governed by psychopaths....they must be resisted.
Wow PeelTower that's a pretty sweeping statement- you could forget that governments are a representation of various interests and say that...or you could just say, "Give Peace A Chance" - Much more powerful- & comes from a very reputable source. :-)
I wonder what's going through Paul's mind at times like these...without John, and George. Ringo could be there if he wanted to. Or if Paul didn't want him It's all still very sad.You know with The Bealtes being gone and all. Give Peace A Chance.
Don't ya'all wish the people who can't seem to make a decision on USA and USSR problems and relations could or would all go to a Paul McCartney concert. He can do more for world peace in 2 hours than these Bozo's could do in decades.
He did do this live one night with Paul Simon on one of his recent tours. Simon & Garfunkel had just started out when Paul wrote this in 1965, it's clearly heavily folk-influenced but whether there is direct influence from Paul Simon is debatable. The sound is folk but the harmonies are very Beatles.
This video gives me the chills. The kremlin in the background and then this former Beetle singing to the men and women of Russia. Just imagine what music and art can do that no other thing can. This is just beautiful.
Love this... but I can't stop looking at the guy playing the tambourine and thinking... This is the psychiatrist from Law & Order SVU...
