An incredible, hilarious revelation about music history! In this 2021 interview, Paul McCartney reflects on "Yesterday," which has been covered 3,000 times.
But the best part? Paul noticed that music legends like Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley subtly changed the famous line "I said something wrong." Why? Because they didn't want to admit they made a mistake! Paul laughs, admitting they changed it to "I must have said something wrong," making the error someone else's fault. A brilliant, humble, and funny look at the egos of rock and pop royalty.
Which version of "Yesterday" is your favorite? (And did you notice the lyric change?) Tell us! ????
