Paul McCartney attended the annual Q Awards ceremony at the Park Lane Hotel in London on 4th November, where he was presented with a Best Songwriter Award for Flaming Pie. Also attending the proceedings was legendary producer Phil Spector, who received a Special Q Award. When video clips of some of Spector’s best-known recordings were played on a giant screen, Paul stood up and applauded an excerpt of John’s “Stand By Me” (which Spector didn’t actually produce!), but when Phil took to the stage to make a speech, Paul got up from his seat and walked out.

He could feel the pulse of of the magnetic field around the city. Feel the charge of electricity and power. Feel the others similar to him and their pull on this elemental force, but it was all wrong. This place was alien. The fields, while similar, felt like night and day to his touch. God must have brought him here for reason after Asteroid M self destructed.
