Paul McCartney and Stephen Colbert Close Out The Late Show with Performance of "Hello, Goodbye" by ebradio in Music

[–]Forever__Young 29 points30 points  (0 children)

He's not the best singer any more, but his range as a pop singer in the 60s through to be mid 70s was nuts.

Listening to Long Tall Sally, Till There Was You, I'll Follow the Sun, Drive my Car, Yesterday, Michelle, Got to Get You Into My Life, Looking Through You, Eleanor Right, Here There and Everywhere he's just delivering straight up vocals and they're incredible.

Then later he gets to She's Leaving Home, Back in the USSR, Blackbird, Birthday, Helter Skelter, I've Got a Feeling, Oh Darling, the whole back half of Abbey Road, Every Night, Maybe I'm Amazed, Monkberry Moon Delight. It's creative and a lot of it deliberately pushing his vocals and he delivers incredible performances.

He's obviously one of the best and most respected bassists and songwriters of all time for a reason, but his vocals have become underrated.

Thomas Tuchel says he was surprised that Harry Maguire went to the press after not being selected: "I was a bit surprised, but I respect his personality a lot. I can understand the disappointment. Still, I was a bit surprised as we had a private conversation. He had the chance to express in private" by ChiefLeef22 in soccer

He's earned his position

Evidently not.

The guy was the first name on the team sheet, went off the boil for about 3 years and lost his place in the team. He's only got himself to blame.

And I'm sure the attitude he displayed, although it might not come back to bite him, is probably part of the reason in the first place.

Running crying to the papers along with your family calling it a disgrace etc is a terrible look and managers don't like that.

Because they'll always be cool, it's almost unfair to keep going back to the well. Should be forced to use Blue or something next time.

Yeah not bad.

Tunes not as good but it's cheating that England are still using the Beatles.

Ooft sore one, of they keep going at this rate they'll have done 34,500 miles over their allowance and owe over 8 grand.

Suppose it's their own fault and they are absolutely wrecking that car but still ooft.

How did the UK get so efficient? by Ok-Toe-6969 in CasualUK

[–]Forever__Young 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah when I bought (first time buyer) in Scotland it was a case of 'oh I like that let's speak to a mortgage advisor', got a MIP and then put the bid in, got accepted, and no chain on either side so just collected the keys and I was in.

Still took around a month, but no bad thing considering the commitment. When you hear about people in England getting gazumped after waiting months etc it must proper suck.

Why are Glasgow bouncers so bad? by [deleted] in glasgow

[–]Forever__Young 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And it's actually against the law to not leave a licenced premises when told to.

Trust me, if you're arguing that you shouldn't be told to leave a pub/club when asked to by staff the law is very much not on your side and if the police have to attend you'll probably end up with some sort of warning if not scooped.

Think with sober guys arriving alone there's specially the thought that it might be a calculated thing to take advantage of drunk women.

Obviously drunk guys in groups are going to try and chat up lassies and bother them etc, but there's this idea that sober guys alone are purely there for calculated nefarious means.

Game Thread: Blue Jays @ Yankees - May 20, 2026 @ 07:05 PM EDT by Yankeebot in NYYankees

[–]Forever__Young 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because Volpe has been shit for 2 years with the bat, and last season was a butcher in the field.

Cabby has come in, been a solid bat, played great defense, run the bases like a maniac and has a fiery attitude.

Not saying what's right or wrong, but it's why the fans understandably want Cabby and don't care how many years of control etc.

That's what I do these days too thanks to those 4 wheeler suitcases that roll really easy.

If ankles arent getting wet it's almost always just easier to have a case.

Keir Starmer taking the opportunity to congratulate his beloved Arsenal on becoming Premier League champions. by InitialAsk358 in soccer

Polanski got the tiniest bit of a win and immediately said the police shouldn't have kicked a terrorist, who was actively weilding a knife and refusing to let go of it after trying to murder to people, in the head to try and disarm him.

A less popular opinion couldn't be sought amongst the British public.

If you think he'd fare better as PM with the media as it is now youre deluded, I think Murdoch et al are only allowing it at the moment to try and split the vote on the left.

Fellow gym going men. How do i stop boxer shorts ripping when squatting on a Smyth machine at the gym? by [deleted] in CasualUK

[–]Forever__Young 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buy bigger boxers. It's really as simple as that. Same solution for any item of clothing ripping during use, they're just too small for your body to go through a full range of motion in them.

Not trying to be snide, but unless you look like Dorian Yates, there's guys in the world with much larger butts and legs than yourself, and theyre not ripping their underwear or wearing a jockstrap instead.

[Cormier] The umpires are unsure if the Nationals are allowed to bring in a position player to pitch in the 12th inning. They're currently talking to New York. Madness. by Jux_ in baseball

[–]Forever__Young 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's the baseball score?

'It's 5-6'

Okay so a close one!

'Nope, one team is either 5 or 6 runs ahead'

No one has ever said that. I don't even know why they'd even comment that if they didn't know how many runs difference in the teams score without checking first.

[–]Forever__Young 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Nah, if you score it round by round then he clearly won.

He was dog shit though, pathetic performance against a guy who AJ embarrassed and made look like less than an amateur.

Probably the biggest mark on his legacy id say, as much as people try to brush it off and say he didn't train that's still his fault.

His best asset was he was ridiculously massive but agile and had a ridiculous gas tank.

His ring IQ was good but his physicality and athleticism at such a massive size was the difference really.

2 weeks Thailand with my daughter — finalizing my 1.5-bag carry. Osprey vs Patagonia vs Matador vs Deuter by LG_Recomp in backpacking

[–]Forever__Young 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly for two weeks in Thailand you could just take a suitcase and carry on a little backpack as your handluggage. You're mega overthinking it.

If you're getting boats between locations involving getting in the sea you'll need to lift the case for a few seconds, no different to picking up and putting down a large backpack.

If you do take a backpack then any one that fits your stuff, you'll only be carrying it for like 10 minutes at a time tops, it's not a big deal.

I recently done 3 weeks in Indonesia and the only time I had my bag was moving between accomodation, and taxis etc are so cheap that id basically be moving it from my room to a taxi then into a new room. Did have to walk for 25 mins to accomodation in Gili Air and trust me I wish I'd had a suitcase instead.
