St. Vincent: Paul McCartney is absolutely charming

Sir Paul McCartney has been hailed "absolutely charming and genius" by St. Vincent

The two musicians talked about her remix of a recording he’d made for his “McCartney III” album. McCartney also revealed he’s working on something new with Andrew Watt and discussed film projects.

The Beatles legend asked the 39-year-old singer - whose real name is Annie Clark - to feature on a remix of his song ‘Women and Wives’ for the 'McCartney III Imagined' compilation this year, which boasts new versions of the songs from the third self-titled LP in the trilogy. (Music-News)

And the 'Pay Your Way In Pain' musician has revealed what it was like working with the 79-year-old music icon.

She told Nashville's Tennessean: "He's absolutely charming and absolutely genius.

"I guess you could call it a milestone but not even because it's so out of this planet. It's one of those things where you go, 'Oh man. I made a lot of mistakes but I must've done something right somewhere if Paul McCartney is calling me.'"

Vincent also revealed she found it "inspiring" how The Beatles were able to take a "good idea" and "hash it out and make it great", as documented in the Peter Jackson-helmed Disney+ docuseries, 'The Beatles: Get Back'.

She added: "Of course, I saw the Beatles doc but what I loved about it so much was ... I think a lot of people who don't make music think about it as magic — and it absolutely is.

"But I found it so refreshing to watch how they could come in with a good idea and hash it out and make it great. That was the most inspiring thing about it."

Meanwhile, despite being "Beatles all the way", the Grammy-winning artist revealed she fell "deep" in love with The Rolling Stones while making her most recent LP, 'Daddy's Home'.

She told the publication: "That's another band that I feel into that trap as a kid — Beatles or Stones? And I was Beatles all the way. I always liked the Stones, but I started loving the Stones in a deep way making 'Daddy's Home.'"

- Dr. Dre (Andre Young aka Dr. Dre) has lately shared a photo of him with Paul McCartney, and called the former Beatles “one of my heroes”.

This isn’t the first time the pair have posed for a selfie either, with McCartney having previously shared a snap of him and Dre at the post-Grammy Beats Music Party in 2014.

Last week Paul McCartney’s bass broke a world record. The guitar, which was used on the road and in the studio with Wings, became the most expensive bass ever sold at auction. It fetched £374,905 for the charity Music Rising,

Last week, Dr. Dre's friend and music executive Breyon Prescott posted an Instagram photo of the mogul posing in front of a balloon decoration that read, "DIVORCED AF."

However, Battlecat could have been referring to the six new songs that Dre released yesterday (December 15) as part of GTA Online’s expansion The Contract. The tracks included collaborations with Eminem, Anderson .Paak and Snoop Dogg while the storyline of the game saw players trying to retrieve the “lost” Dre tracks.
