@prabbit68 Wrong definition. Genius is a gift, can be a lethal burden, as Jung put it. But Paul is good at the supreme art : living. And still on stage after so many gigs, beloved by his staff, respected by jazz musicisians who use his compositions as standards. Reset.

[alonzopajo]

@prabbit68 You don't know much about Beatles. Paul, John and George composed separately. The singer, the writer, except for Getting better. Toughest part in composition is not orchestration and arrangement, that you can learn, but writing a good melody. Some would kill to write stuff like Yesterday, Here there & e, Got to get you, Eleanor Rigby or Penny lane, all from Paul alone. If you had ever tried to compose, you 'd know some songs are pure genius, with a lot of work to complete.

@rushfanatik1 Wrong Beatle.

Terrific guitar arrangement - still sounds fresh today

@alonzopajo No they didn't all compose separately. You ever heard of a lot of Beatles songs wrote by Lennon/McCartney. Just scrapped your Beatles theory. Seems like you don't know much about Beatles ;)
