Default Yesterday

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they’re here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Suddenly, I’m not half the man I used to be,
There’s a shadow hanging over me.
Oh, yesterday came suddenly.

Why she had to go I don’t know she wouldn’t say.
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday.

Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play.
Now I need a place to hide away.
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Mm mm mm mm mm.

People who arent seeing Paul McCartney during his upcoming US tour are, in some way, joking.

Discuss.

honestly I have very little patience for old musicians who try to rock it like they used to. I know the nostalgia market is huge, but come on.. have some dignity. mick jagger screaming "I can't get no satisfaction" when he might not even be able to get it up is just a sad and pity-filling idea.

my sincerest sympathy, RYL, but..

consider this thread hijacked.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

Amazing.


FWIW... this will be my second time seeing Paul (first time only a few years ago), and I would say it is most defintely worth it. Despite the loss of voice, he still does put on one hell of a show.

I havent seen the stones, but I can see the old thing putting quite a damper on them. The whole young badass thing was a bigger part of the stones' image than the beatles.

FWIW... arent some of the sex pistols doing a reunion thing now?? lol.

Tsk tsk. That would ring truer about Mick if people hadn't been saying it for 20 years. And Keith can still play fine.

A lot of music is about the strut, but even if you get creaky old hips, if the music is there, it doesn't matter. Guys like Frank Sinatra started out as teen sensations, too, and they were allowed to grow old like every other human being without having to disappear off the face of the earth.

When the voice goes bad, it's another thing. I can hear McCartney's is definitely not as good. Haven't heard Jagger's lately myself, but his voice was never beautiful anyway, so if it has decayed much, I'm not sure how much that might matter.

Anyway, I'd rather hear an old Mick Jagger than a young Brittney or almost all of your average yearly run of pop music.

if they were making new music and whatnot, that would be all right. but I think jagger was just screaming the same [awesome] songs he had written like thirty years ago, and hasn't come up with any new stuff (has he?). to me, rock and roll is about youthful (usually sexual) energy, which is really hard to do much past 30.

it beats spears and [censored] acts like creed and theory of a dead man, but I still don't like it.

He was still coming out with stuff in the 80's and 90's. I don't know what he's been up to lately.

You know guys like that are always being pestered to do their old stuff whether they want to or not. People are so crazy for the old stuff that it's hard to do anything new.
