Paul McCartney has revealed he and his fellow former Beatles bandmates discussed the possibility of a reunion, only for the plans to be curtailed as the desire for a return was never strong enough.
“There was talk of reforming The Beatles a couple of times, but it didn’t gel, there was not enough passion behind the idea,” McCartney told Rolling Stone.
“More importantly, it could have spoiled the whole idea of The Beatles, so wrong that they’d be like, ‘Oh, my God, they weren’t any good’.”
“The reformation suggestions were never convincing enough. They were kind of nice when they happened – ‘That would be good, yeah’ – but then one of us would always not fancy it. And that was enough, because we were the ultimate democracy.”
Paul McCartney released his new studio album ‘Kisses On The Bottom‘ earlier this month, achieving top 5 places on both the UK and US charts.
