At 41:36 he starts singing Blackbird. He messes it up twice. Twice he bounces back in the most endearing way possible. (I know this song, I wrote it!) Also, I love that he still goes out and does this song, just him and a guitar, even though his voice is admittedly (perfectly understandably) not what it used to be. I love him so much I could cry.
P.S. I love Egypt Station, I'm not sure we talk about it enough
I’m gonna vent here, so the short version is: Barnes & Noble is trying really hard to put itself out of business with terrible customer service. Long Version: I got a gift card for the holidays and it has been burning a hole in my pocket ever since. Paul McCartney announced a wildly overpriced Egypt Station re-release which I normally wouldn’t shell out for, but after using the card, it would only set me back $13. The drawback: The nearest B&N stocking it is an hour away. I live in the heart of the music industry—NYC—and none of your stores carry it? OK, I’ll get it from BN.com. So I ordered it and it showed up all busted up. The photo doesn’t begin to do justice to how creased up and bent this thing is. Sigh. OK, I could probably exchange it at that B&N an hour away, right? I call up to make sure they still have it and NO, you can not exchange items bought on BN.com at a store, only return them. OK, I’ll return it to the local B&N. NO, the store has to stock the item for you to be able to return it. B&N’s only answer is that I have to mail it back—making a huge deal to me on the phone about how they’re doing me a favor because I won’t have to pay for shipping it back—and oh, it’s out of stock at BN.com too, so we’ll just send you a refund instead. That doesn’t even go into how their garbage website made me reset my password twice then locked me out of it because I supposedly got my security question wrong (Look, B&N, I KNOW my father’s middle name; clearly you do not). All of which is an hour of my life wasted over this. I guess it doesn’t matter if I’m locked out of the account; I don’t intend to use it again.

Listening to Egypt Station, the new Paul McCartney album that’s out today, and so far, the rumors are true: It’s a really strong record. I picked up the limited red vinyl edition at Barnes & Noble and it’s playing in the background as I work, spooling out some of his most concise, melodic songs in a long while—hummable, personal and with a minimum of self-indulgence. It’s made for a nice surprise this morning.
