JOHN 1980: 'That's Paul.
Apparently he was under strain at that period.'PAUL circa-1994: 'I'm generally quite upbeat, but at certain times things get to me so much that I just can't be upbeat anymore and that (the tensions leading to the break-up) was one of those times.
'Carry that weight a long time' – like forever! That's what I meant… in this heaviness there was no place to be.
It was serious, paranoid heaviness and it was just very uncomfortable.'

And in the middle of the celebrations
I break downBoy, you're going to carry that weight
Carry that weight a long time
Boy, you're going to carry that weight
