Michael Jackson Wants to Bury the Hatchet With Sir Paul Mccartney
The King of Pop plans to make peace with his long-time Beatle foe. After a rivalry that has spanned nearly 24 years, Michael Jackson is thinking of giving his portion of the highly profitable Beatles back catalogue to Sir Paul McCartney, one of the Beatles’ main songwriters. McCartney was obviously infuriated when the Gloved One outbid him back in 1985 to gain the possession of the 350 million-pound publishing rights for the entire Lennon-McCartney songbook. Now, he might just get back what he deserved.
Jackson, who is reportedly undergoing a serious genetic lung disease, longs to settle their squabble in case his condition gets much worse. In the latest version of his will, he has indicated that McCartney will have full power over the songbook the moment Jackson passes away.
It has been revealed by sources close to Jackson that he has always felt upset over the feud with the knighted Beatle. One source stated: “Michael is worried about his health so he decided it was time to look at his finances. Most of his estate has been divided up between his three children. But Michael told his lawyers that he was sad as he no longer talks to Sir Paul and said he wanted to make things right.”
The source went on to say: “Michael is suffering serious back and leg pain. He spends a lot of time in bed and a wheelchair. He weighs just over seven stone and is very frail. He’s also had a nasty bout of emphysema and there have been reports he has another lung disease.”
Songs from the Lennon-McCartney songbook include many of history’s greatest pop songs such as “Across the Universe,” “Blackbird,” “The Fool on the Hill,” “Ticket to Ride,” “Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown,” “The Long and Winding Road,” “Here, There and Everywhere,” “I Want to Hold Your Hand,” “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds,” “Let It Be,” “Yellow Submarine,” and “You’ve Got to Hide Your Love Away.” Suffice it to say that classics such as these would garner lots of profits for the person who has control over them.
