The Beatles – I’m Happy Just To Dance With You

Also Paul disliked some Beatles songs.
It’s difficult to pin down Sir Paul McCartney. The magnetic songwriter and serial creator, has never felt comfortable under the glaring eye of the media. Though he shows his face when promotional material is needed to bolster his latest release, he approaches them differently to his ex-partner and former Beatle John Lennon. The bespectacled Beatle was abrasively honest whenever he was interviewed by the music press — never flinching at the opportunity to have his voice heard; Lennon was as happy to promote the work of The Beatles as he was to trash it. McCartney is a little savvier.
Today, we would say that McCartney was media-trained but, the truth is, he likely operated with a sense of self-preservation. Lennon was always happy to cast himself away from the Fab Four while McCartney, despite being the man the public assumed broke up the band, held are far closer affinity for the work they created. He has since treated the songs he made alongside Lennon, George Harrison and Ringo Starr as his children, all 200+ of them. It means, very rarely has he made it known the songs he doesn’t like.
The Beatles songs Paul McCartney disliked:
‘She Said, She Said’
‘Revolution 9’
‘Yer Blues’
‘Across the Universe’
‘Little Child’
‘Hold Me Tight’
‘I’m Just Happy To Dance With You’
‘What You’re Doing’
‘Tell Me What You See’
