Paul sometimes finds it hard to concentrate while singing old Beatles songs on stage.
He loves performing for his fans and still
enjoys singing the iconic songs which made him famous. However, as they
are so familiar to him he occasionally realises he isn't paying as much
attention as he should be.
"Don't
ask," he replied, after admitting he sometimes thinks about strange
things on stage. "It's scary, because sometimes I suddenly wake up in
the middle of a show and think, 'Concentrate man! Come on, you've got an
audience here!'"
Many other stars of the 70-year-old's era admit
they tire of performing the same tracks over and over again. Paul sees
that as a way to relive his youth and is often amazed by how talented he
was at such a young age.
"I
do enjoy them! One of the great things now is that I'm reviewing them
every time I sing them," he told Q magazine, when asked about some of
The Beatles' classics.
"I'm looking at myself now, singing it, but
thinking of myself then, writing it. It's like time travel. Singing
Eleanor Rigby and thinking, 'Keeping her face in a jar by the door,'
that's a pretty cool turn of phrase. But some of the other things going
on in my mind are nobody's business."
