  1. For two main reasons I tend to believe the original Paul did die: 1) I didn’t follow the Beatles back in the sixties, I liked most of their music, but couldn’t joint the hysteria. I happen to have exceptionally keen facial recognition and I remember watching Paul some time in the late 60s, thinking „is that still the same guy“ without knowing anything about any accident, and I asked a friend who was a big fan if something had happened to Paul. He didn’t think so and I forgot about the whole thing until today, watching this video from „WF?“ and decided to find out – and I think I did:  2) The accident was late summer 1966, right. Well, there’s a very good VEVO Official of Paul introducing „Yesterday“ from 1965 with closeups during performance and an equally good one from Germany live November 1966. Now „Yesterday“ fitted Paul’s voice perfectly and he sang it with great confidence and ease when he introduced it in 1965.  But the latter performance is shockingly different if you compare end to end. The timing and punctuation is distinctly different, Paul is now struggling in the low notes and his voice has a new sharpness (and clarity) in the high register. This is so obviously a different man – who nevertheless turned out to be highly gifted musically as well, but is lacking the humorous quirks and surprising associations which were Paul I.  In short, Paul II is much more pedestrian than Paul I.
