Happy Birthday, Sir Paul!
"Paul McCartney was never cool. Obviously. When he was a Beatle, he was really only cool by association with John, who was born cool. George was another kind of cool. Even Ringo was kind of cool. Paul was always off by a step (go watch A Hard Day’s Night). But he was the hardest worker, and he was also the real artist, the real craftsman. He was why the Beatles weren’t just cool. He was why they were the greatest thing that happened to music in the second half of the 20th century (at least). He was the finisher. And the fact that he was so unrelentingly not cool while being so unbelievably good is what makes him such a fascinating pop figure, to me anyway. I keep listening because he still delivers good songs, and always has the potential to write the perfect one. He’s done it before, many times."

С днем рождения, сэр Пол! 65 - это серьезно.
