I haven't heard Beatles music for a very long time. But it was that serene and sweet look on McCartney's aging face contrasted with his very hip and rocking performance in the pub that was so interesting. It seems the Brits love him more than they love the Queen herself.

to help me get through tough or sad times
Deaths, tragedy, National and personal, anger, pain, disappointments…and turned them towards the positive healing.
I am forever attached and indebted to the Fab Four and especially Paul for helping me “Let it Be”.

2019 or so, since neither of them is masked. In one scene, when a curtain in John Lennon's favorite pub is pulled back to reveal Paul and his band, one of the pub patrons springs to his feet looking in astonishment at the stage. His expression reads: this cannot be happening! (But it is.) Great video.

I didn't really know the level of affection the Brits have for him until I watched this.

2018, I think.
