Sir Paul to stand in for Kurt Cobain in Nirvana reunion

Well McCartney was IMO the hardest rocking of the Beatles afterall. Lennon wanted to be Allen Ginsberg and McCartney wanted to be Little Richard. It's obvious to me which is the more desirable in a Rock and Roll context.

I'll be damned and go to Hell before I refer to actors and Rock and Roll stars (or anyone else) by titles of nobility, it's unfitting for Americans to do so; as an American I recognize no titles of nobility.

Most of us here have no regard or respect for the things that other nations and cultures hold high. It's the "American Way", right?
 
McCartney said: "I didn't really know who they were. They are saying how good it is to be back together. I said: 'Whoa? You guys haven't played together for all that time?'

"And somebody whispered to me: 'That's Nirvana. You're Kurt.' I couldn't believe it."

What? Is McCartney fecking senile?

Perhaps. But I hold many aspects of foreign cultures in high regard and hold British culture in particularly high regard. But not the noble titles part. And I also have a regard for that part of my own culture that disdains such titles.
 
"McCartney said: "I didn't really know who they were"."

Where was he during the '90's?

That singer/guitarist in Seether or Chris Cornell would fit in well with Nirvana.

Kurt Cobain had an amazing dynamic voice. I don't know how he didn't blow his voice out. Check out some of the VH1 Behind the Music or newer Nirvana documentaries.
 
I for one (am probably the only one) who would like to see Ringo sing the Nirvana songs with Dave and Krist instead of Paul... I know, but I think Nirvana as Brit-com might work, and I think Kurt might actually smile if he saw it.
 
Wow. Watching Springsteen at the Sandy concert. Am I the only one who just finds him exhausting to listen to? Full throttle vocals that are always at the top of his range just kills any melody in the songs. I had to switch the channel.
 
Guys. When Paul said "I didn't really know who they were" he didn't mean NIRVANA, he meant Smear and Novoselic. He obviously knows Grohl from previously playing with him; he just didn't recognize the other members of the band. Not a crime, considering most people can only name Cobain and Grohl. Geez.



And their collab sounded pretty good.

Yup.

Shades of 'Helter-Skelter' with a certain grunge sensibility. Not bad for a one-off. :thmbsp:

Too bad Fuse is being all bitchy about not allowing videos to show up.

-D
