Paul McCartney on James Corden Carpool Karaoke
Paul is so famous. The most famous. So famous that James Corden (and anyone else who has ever interviewed him) has to let down his own cool factor. You can’t out famous Paul. You can’t out cool Paul.
And with that, James turns into me, he turns into you. James is all of us and Paul is Paul McCartney. So we’re basically watching ourselves do carpool karaoke with Paul. What a thrill. And it’s so joyful.
That’s what Paul trades on now: joy. He’s the master….and you can’t help but be changed by joy.
So this isn’t a lesson on how to give joy to your fans and make money and build a career and write the next Hey Jude (although I hope you do)…it’s a reminder to simply receive the joy.
