That's only part of the story. Paul was offered the songs for $20m, but he felt bad about owning them himself because they're Lennon/McCartney songs, not McCartney songs. So he rang up Yoko to see if she'd split it with him 50/50, and she wanted to try to work it down to $10m. Well... off the back of Thriller, Michael Jackson had the money to buy all the songs for himself for $50m...

@@martygough Actually, Paul and Yoko were negotiating it at the time, Michael Jackson just had the money to snipe them for nearly 3x the price of the initial offer behind their back.

Well Paul, he told you. He was being up front! You thought it was a joke, but he was serious. Don't be mad at him!

Okay seeing this take pop up a lot, so I just feel the need to set the record straight. Paul was offered the songs for $20m, but because they were Lennon/McCartney compositions, he didn't think it was morally correct for him to own them all himself. So he went to Yoko to split it 50/50, and she was certain they could work it down to $10m. It was during this time Michael cam in and bought the songs for $50m. At first, Paul actually believed Michael would be a good fit to hold onto and protect the songs, that he was historically placed to give 'The Beatles' a good deal. But then Michael started licensing them out to advertisers for use in commercials. The Beatles never ONCE sold out to advertisers in their entire history, even turning down MASSIVE deals in 1964 or later when Apple was hemorrhaging money. It was only then that Paul McCartney took issue with the ownership and tried to talk to him about how he was running the company. But... Michael would repeatedly blank him on it. When he was finally able to talk to him about it, Michael told him "that's just business, Paul" and brushed him off. What Michael did was sneaky, underhanded and in no way defensible.

Just like a Jehova witness without a birthday party or a call Christmas 🎁. Not a a wonder Mike Jackson turned out weird. No birthday party or anything else that they celebrate with gifts for holidays. Jehova witness don't believe in giving gifts for your birthday party or Christmas. I would have slapped him on the face, instead of on his back. Then he would have ran home and got those cup publishing rights and ran all the way back crying. And then he wouldn't sell the Beatles member the one of the riding members is published songs back to him at market price. And I never felt that pissed at Michael Jackson before because I knew that is Dad Joe Jackson was a strict and unrelenting father with no real love to share to his children. All he wanted was to make money off his singing and dancing children. I still don't know what I think about the whole molestation thing. Maybe the families did it for money. God only knows what people do for money nowadays. I guess Michael learned it from the best his dad Joe Jackson. But it still galls me to think that Michael Jackson would not sell his music publishing rights back to the original Lennon & McCartney the greatest songwriters of ever known except for maybe the classical Mozart and Bach but whop who listens to that? You should have ran his butt home and got the the music and brought it right back I hope all learned his lessons about taking pot into Japan and also dealing with a Jackson concerning a money deal with music 🎶

So naw that the man change his mind, It's Michael's fault?! Like he did business with a child?

Utter bullcrap, it’s been noted by multiple sources that the catalogue was offered to Paul and Yoko and both of them were too cheap to buy the catalogue, which included music buy other artists.

Paul was offered the catalogue first, but he and the Lennon Estate tried to get them to bring the price down. He and John were also offered - what would have given them a majority in - Northern Songs way back in the day. But funding was an issue. To be fair, McCartney wasn’t going to exploit the songs - let them be used for ads, etc, so back in the 80’s it didn’t seem as stupid not to buy the catalogue, as it probably does today. Still, it must be painful for him not to own the rights. He could easily have bought the rights by himself in the early 80’s. As I understand it from more than one article I read many years ago, the money involved would have represented little more than what he made in a year at the time, so the deal probably fell through because they tried to negotiate the price.

Macca is just pissed of MJ outdone him.

What's crazy is that it sounds like he's mad because mike brought the publishing .It sounds like of anybody else would have brought it, it wouldn't be such a big deal because after all his publishing's was up to be acquired so what's the the reall problem,no body talks about what's really bugging them.I wounder why?
