NOTE: "I originally cut it on my farm in Scotland; I did a
little version with just me as the nutty professor, doing
everything and getting into my own world like a laboratory.
The absent-minded professor is what I go like when I'm doing
those; you get so into yourself it's weird, crazy. But I liked
it. You know, I heard a story recently from a guy who used to
record with John [Lennon] in New York, and he said that John
would get lazy - but then he'd hear a song of mine where he
thought, 'Oh, shit, Paul's putting it in, Paul's working!"
Apparently that was one song that got John recording again. I
think John just thought, 'Uh-oh, I better get working, too'. I
thought that was a nice story." (Paul McCartney, 2001)
