The lyrics to "Helter Skelter" are similar. Want me to make you, don't let me break you, etc.
It's kind of cool when cute li'l "Macca" displays this streak of comic sexual braggadocio. It shows that there's a genuine sense of humor lurking there somewhere.
Sweet Banana! Even a vegetarian can eat one of those!

I don't like any of his post-Beatles music. Wings, or solo, it's just not that good.

NOT CRAP. Was a Beatle...seems that it was ultimately Paul's being a little bitch that killed the Beatles, but oh well. They probably couldn't've been too far from starting to suck anyway.
Great bass player, wrote great songs while he was in the Beatles...great musician...
Lousy, annoying piece of shit otherwise.

It's disconcerting, because no matter how bad he gets i have the sinking feeling that he KNOWS what a sell-out dipshit he looks like. It's almost as if he knows exactly what is expected of him, and so to play it safe he just keeps playing that role.
He's a very smart, very talented man, but for the past 30 years he's been doing the utmost minimum for him to get paid billions, and has made us suffer through his awful mediocre output all the way. That is CRAP any way you look at it.

Macca w/Beatles - Changed popular music forever, recorded some of the greatest songs that will ever be written in the history of humanity for eight years
Macca post-Beatles - Changed nothing in the wake of that, couldn't with slight exceptions pull a decent tune out of his ass for thirty-seven years
In terms of time spent wasting time artistically, Crap
In terms of accomplishment, Not Crap
In terms of "Helter Skelter", Not Fucking Crap Ever
so I guess not crap but only slightly because good Christ does his solo shit suck.

It's the opposite. Let It Be would have never been finished if it weren't for the Paul's insistence on keeping the group together, and Abbey Road would never have been recorded. (I don't know if this is a good thing -- it's shitty human behavior, but it resulted in Abbey Road)
As far as doing what's expected of him -- what about Ringo! I don't feel Paul is being insincere at all; if you look at the way he behaved, composed, and promoted himself while he was in the Beatles, and compare it to now, he's exactly the same.
It wouldn't be fair for me to vote crap or not crap on his music, since I haven't heard anything since The Beatles except Band on the Run and Venus & Mars - both great albums. They have their share of Paul's "granny songs," as John Lennon referred to them, but they're catchy and fun.
A couple of years ago I probably would have said Paul Mccartney is Crap. But I don't think that would fair. I'm sure I'll change my mind later, then change it back, then change it again, etc, etc...

HATE Wings.
But I let Mr. McC. live. Can't fuck with his basslines. Can't fuck with the Beatles when they were in top form. He was able to deal with Lennon without shooting him (AFAIK).
Wood Goblin wrote: But he also moved vegetarianism and animal welfare issues from the fringes into popular consciousness. These particular issues mean a lot to me, and when I look back at the recent history of that movement, one cannot deny that Paul McCartney played the largest role of any animal welfare advocate in the western world.
That too. And he boned an amputee! Shouldn't have dumped her though, not without sending her my way.

Paul McCartney:
Beatles music = Not Crap
Solo Music = Crap overall with one or two exceptions.
Bass Player = Not crap
So not crap, but I acknowledge that his solo stuff sucks and John was my favorite Beatle.
