Video: Paul McCartney - A Day In The Life (Live At Anfield) 01/06/0

Para criterio de muchos (me incluyo), "A Day in the Life" es una de las mejores canciones que fue hecha por The Beatles .

Interestingly enough he fluffed his own part (the onset of senility?) but who really cares when thousands of adoring Liverpudlians (and Yoko Ono) are looking on in awe.
