Happy Birthday Paul

Happy birthday to doe-eyed baby face Sir Paul McCartney. A legend, a genius and one of my favorite musicians. I can’t pick which McCartney creation is my favorite, but what’s yours? Actually no, it’s Blackbird, before realizing what the song is about. Just beautifully written, beautifully composed, I can listen to it forever. Simple and sophisticated. Via: Beatles Muses

“Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to be free.”
‘Blackbird’ The Beatles
