Still going strong, not sure his singing voice is.

At his peak, Sir Paul was for me the greatest vocalist. Post Beatles with the odd exception (Ram album, Band on the Run)) I personally have found a lot of his solo work disappointing. That said I look forward to his performance at Glastonbury next Saturday night and hope he can still do himself justice. Sir Paul, happy birthday.

Possibly the greatest popular music musician ever.

Great bass player

Amazing songwriter and vocalist

Main driver of the Beatles

One of my absolute favourites

His songs have been the soundtrack to our lives. His influence huge on other musicians.

Those people who think it’s cool to write negative comments need to get a life.

Great songwriter but his voice went several years ago and his live act has become a sad parody of earlier times
