An incredible, humbling confession from the music master! In this July 1980 interview, Paul McCartney is asked if there's a "lack of talent" in the world now.
Paul immediately rejects the idea, praising contemporary songs like Art Garfunkel's "Bright Eyes" and Billy Joel's "The Way You Are." He then shares a shocking truth about his fame: the new generation already exists, and many kids "only know me as Molly and Tyra" (references to his animal life). This clip is a beautiful testament to McCartney's humility and his constant respect for new talent.
