Paul McCartney & John Lennon


Sir Paul McCartney has spoken out about his relationship with John Lennon and denied reports that they didn't get on. Sir Paul, 66, has revealed the truth about his friendship with his Beatles bandmate, who was shot dead outside his home in 1980. Behind the Fights, the singer denied claims that John had complained in interviews that he had ruined songs by not committing enough creative energy to them. Sir Paul said "Oh, he was on drugs, wasn't he? This is the trouble with history, with journalism. John said so much c**p that he later said he hadn't meant. It's bulls**t." He also told the UK's Radio Times magazine: "The image of John is seriously flawed because he was not the hard, mad man that people think he was. He was a very soft-centered guy and we had a lot more in common than people think. "Whatever bad things John said about me, he would also slip his glasses down to the end of his nose and say, 'I love you'. That's really what I hold on to. That's what I believe. The rest is showing off."
