    Did Paul McCartney's predictions come true?

    Some people round here, who seem to have an encyclopedic knowledge of pop lyrics, may recall a Beatles number "When I'm 65".

    Now the surviving beatles _are_ at least 65, I was wondering if any of their predictions came true.

    You'd better ask his overly ambitious gold digging wife, I believe she's holding all the press conferences these days...

      Oh so near and yet so far. It was "When I'm 64". I'm afraid you are no longer at your peak.

      Why is it that the Beatles that most deserved to die early are the ones still around, and the interesting ones are dead? What is the point of Ringo Star? We deserve an answer.

        Prefer Ringo to that drivelly peace and lovey John Lennon anyday.

          Did any of McCartney's lyrics say "I'll still be writing songs but I'll be a right nob"?

            I'm not sure he had such foresight.

                And now a much cheaper scouser.
