Paul McCartney says The Beatles used performing trick that stood them apart

Tuesday, June 24, 2025

The Beatles used a performing trick to stand them apart from other acts.  Music icon Paul McCartney said The Beatles found ways to stand out from their peers, including using one performance trick that boosted their gigs.

‌For decades since The Beatles took music by storm in the early 1960s, fans, scholars, authors, journalists, scientists, religious leaders, and even haters have wondered what made the Fab Four special.

Everything about them has been documented repeatedly in virtually every single form of media, and while some have come close to encapsulating the reason for their greatness, no one other than them can truly explain their own phenomenon. McCartney, who has never shied away from talking about The Beatles' history, including what made them tick, once tried to explain what The Beatles did to distinguish themselves from their competition.

Along with their own specific skills in the recording studio, he revealed that the band was highly proficient when it came to performing for their fans. However, one trick truly set them above the bar: playing certain covers.

From their early days, McCartney explained, The Beatles made themselves unique by writing their own songs, but they still knew when to pay homage to their inspirations and change it up with a cover. This balance of original and covered songs translated to their gigs, too.
