AIBU?

To think that Paul McCartney is unbearably annoying?

He is isnt he!

The peace signs make me want to tear my own eyes out.

But today I read the he said it was great to have 'hung out' with Michael Jackson

No one over the age of 20 says 'hung out', and even then it is an annoying phrase!

YANBU, and his music is so over-rated. I do like Stella McCartney though.

Oh me too, the "peace" sign, the whole wide-eyed schoolboy look, everything .... musical genius? What, the frog chorus?

Each to their own and that, but no thanks.

Had a lot of time for Linda though - I think her veggie recipes were fab and use them all the time.

YANBU

But Ringo Starr is as bad these days. Everyone used to like him, back when he was Thomas the Tank Engine and general loveable scruff. Now he's a grumpy old man.

He probably has reason to be cheerful though hasn't he... he'll get the rights back to his songs now!

Ringo Starr is annoying too - the whole 'Dont call me by my stage name' and dont ask for autographs

YANBU - it's the fishy little mouth that does it (Paul not Ringo)

Sorry but YABU. What the hell has PM ever done to anyone? And he is a musical genius - if you're old enough to remember! He's in his 60s now - he is not required to be "cool"!

I got DH some tickets to see PM at Earl's Court in the pre dd days and he cried! It really was fab! When he did "Yesterday" and "Hey Jude" I was overcome and went mad at "I saw her standing there". His new stuff is not so fab though. Maybe that was HM's poisonous influence....

Couldn't agree more, the only person more up his own his own self righteous arse is Bono. That whole meat free Monday lecturing and hectoring. Who the fuck are you to tell me what I should eat and when I should eat it?

I can't bear PMc - so supercilious. And I always got the impression that he thought he was 'superior' to the rest of the Beatles.

And he was vile to Jane Asher when they were engaged...

Hang on a minute:

"... musical genius? what The Frog Chorus?"

Are you forgetting

Back In The USSR
Paperback Writer
Eleanor Rigby
Yesterday
Hey Jude

?

He's annoying, granted, but to sneer at his music is ... just ... well ... really fekking ignorant imo.

How many million albums have any of you sold? jeez
