He has been, still is and will always be one of my favorite people. He is where my name McCartha came from.
I was so obsessed wity him in high school someone just started calling me McCartha and as you know I have claimed that name for my writing and everything I do on the internet.
And yes, I was obsessed with him and still have a lot of love and respect for him despite our 55 year age gap.

The first and most important being this the man that made me fall in love with music. Maybe one of these days I'll publish my college essay on why he's so important to me.
He just is. Sure its weird to some people but no joke, he's up there with Brendon Urie and Dalon Weekes as someone who helped me survive high school. The first albums I bought were his. I own three of his albums in CDs and I own 4 ORIGINAL Beatles vinyls. Because I am a rat.

I won't lie. I am, as the kids would say, trash for McCharmly. I hope to one day see him live, but I'm not holding my breath.
He is such a talented artist. I mean the man was a Beatle. They're considered the greatest band of all time.
If it wasn't for Paul I probably would not love music as much as I do. This blog would probably not ecist and I most likely would have given up on writing a long time ago.
Every year on his birthday since 2013 I have spammed him on my Instagram @drink_to_me. My username is taken from a Paul McCartney and Wings song "Picasso's Last Words (Drink To Me). I used to be @yespaul_idroveyourcar. No joke.
Anyway happy birthday Paul! To many many more birthdays!
