Well, now that Paul has his Höfner back, maybe he could concentrate on finding his blue school exercise book again? The one he lost after putting it in his bookshelf and that contains the first lyrics he and John wrote down (another Lennon/McCartney original). And then maybe just publish the whole thing? please thank you

I’ve just listened to the introductory episode of the podcast A Life in Lyrics. It’s going to be an edited version of the tapes that went into making Paul’s Lyrics book. Which is the best thing it could be I think.
Muldoon is doing that awful “poet reading his poetry dramatically” voice in the intro episode, but I’m hopeful that he’ll be talking normally in the conversations.

I just listened to the episode and you're so right op...
»I used to take her out to the country, have long walks. Take her out to Regent’s Park where she would see a duck on the lake and forget that you couldn’t walk on water, so she’d run in and it’d be like a cartoon. That was really nice... And I remember John being very sort of sympathetic to me. I think he warmed to me seeing me with a pet. John was a cat ... guy. He loved his cats.« »And when you say warmed to you...?« »Eh, yeah, I remember, you know, him, I’m just remembering sort of, when he came around and I'd, say, be playing with Martha, I could tell that he … liked it.« »... mhm...«
First of all there really was no objective reason to mention John during the story about Martha at all. And his stuttering when having to explain how he felt John making heart eyes at him playing with his their dog. »I could tell he liked it« ... There's just too much subtext for me to be sane about this.
Side note: At the end of the episode I was a bit displeased with Sir Paul. When he talks about people being praised more for dark / bitter / negative songs than for »silly love songs« he mentions John doing a lot of those and that it often comes from having to put up a shield against life … Well maybe, Paul, John simply had a need to write these kinds of songs, because he felt these negative emotions? He did have problems and he voiced them. I actually thing this is the opposite of a shield, but quite self-revealing. And it’s just as true as love. Pretty sure he didn’t write self-tortured songs just for the fun and recognition.
Anyway ... John loved his cats ...
You can literally hear Paul struggling not to mention John in the Silly Love Songs episode of the podcast and yet he still mentions him several times including in talking about MARTHA…. The way he said John warmed up to me when I played with Martha like… you can tell the other Paul was like.. he wat?… wat does that mean mate?… the obsession was really apparent…
