Interesting paragraph about half way down.. KPVI NewsLast night we introduced you to Sunny bingo, an Idaho woman whose music has inspired Rock and Roll legends such as Paul McCartney and Mick Jagger.
And while in the past her songs have helped make people famous, she now hopes her words can bring people hope and comfort.
Ty Perry reports.
After being born cross-eyed and raised in poverty, Sunny Bingo turned to music.
One day she started humming a tune, and that tune lead to a Rock and Roll sensation.
Sunny Bingo: "It's about a man walking up, you know, twenty flights of stairs."
At the age of 17, Nelda Sunny Fairchild Bingo wrote the song "Twenty Flight Rock. But at the time it was difficult for a woman to make it in the music industry, especially as a song writer. Sunny needed a pen name.
"Neddie -- Ned was my nickname. So I used Ned Fairchild, it was easier for a man to get a break."
Sunny began performing across the country, and her "Twenty Flight Rock" caught fire.
"And it became a smash hit."
The song was covered by rock and roller Eddie Cochran, and he played it in the movie "The Girl Can't Help It."
But the song had even more Rock and Roll influence. Paul McCartney credits Sunny's Song with getting him into the Beatles after he sang it for John Lennon at a garden party.
Paul McCartney, YouTube.com: "So I said why do they want me. Well you knew the words to Twenty Flight Rock.' This is true genius, you know, at work. So that got me in the band and I've never looked back."
"All of the big artists around the world have done it, from everywhere, Australia, Japan, everywhere. It's a standard now."
Besides writing songs, Sunny has also spent her life writing poetry and painting. Recently, Sunny compiled a book of poems and drawings that she has created over a lifetime.
"I live my life on paper now, a marginary scrawl, along the typeset pages where memories footnotes fall."
And after inspiring the likes of rock royalty, Sunny hopes her poems and her story will inspire others.
"Someone may find this little book and read how I was battered blue and left to bleed, if another weep in sweet release of pent up griefs that overwhelm them so, cries across the years I know, I know, your pain is mine, this somehow gives me peace."
Her words, a reflection of a life well lived.
"If there is such a thing, it makes me humbly proud."
Sunny continues to sing and perform her hit song "Twenty Flight Rock" and others she has written over the years.
Of course now her audiences and her stages are much smaller as she plays at church houses and retirement centers in her hometown of Ashton.I just wonder.. is he doing the usual retelling of old stories as if he were there, or is this how it went down for real?

That's a good question, Jo. What we need is vintage information as to whether that really happened between Paul & Johnny. Something that was written before late 1966. I'm working on that right now.

LINKA man has been arrested and detained under the Mental Health Act after forcing his way into Sir Paul McCartney’s home.
The unnamed man reportedly drove through the gate to the former Beatle’s Peasmarsh home in Sussex, then across the grounds of the mansion in an attempt to get the house.
A source tells the News Of The World, “He drove down the drive past security at speed and was shouting out a lot of things. But he made it clear that he wanted to get up to the house and to Paul.
"Luckily the guards managed to close the last security gate before he got up to the main house. He just shouted at them about wanting to get in.
"Then he tried to drive around that over the fields. But the cops turned up and that forced him to flee."
Fortunately, Sir Paul was lunching in town at the time of the incudent, but police have confirmed the man has now been placed under custody.
A spokesperson for Sussex Police says, “We received a call from a security officer at Peasmarsh and later arrested a man at his home address.
"He was initially arrested on suspicion of criminal damage and failing to stop when challenged by police.
"He was later detained under the Mental Health Act and is not facing criminal charges."
Sources add the security measures stepped up after Sir Paul’s former bandmate George Harrison was stabbed at his home by a deranged fan in 2000, will now be tightened even further.

LINKWeird scenes going on with the "strange fans" camping out by his houses, and the stalker with the blacked out car windows.. I dunno, something seems odd to me. While this guy is most likely highly disturbed, what is it that compels him to say "I must get to him".. A CRAZED fan broke through security at Sir Paul McCartney's home, recalling attacks that saw Beatles John Lennon murdered and George Harrison stabbed. When security finally got close to the man he kept screaming, "I must get to him."
McCartney's guards feared an assassination attempt was taking place when a speeding car crashed through security on Friday.
He then had his path blocked after the guards activated a security gate, before turning his car and tearing across McCartney's fields and gardens.
He was finally stopped by trees and a fence just metres from McCartney's home.
The terrifying attack brought back fears of attacks similar to those on other former members of the Fab Four.
Lennon was murdered in 1980 when crazed fan Mark Chapman shot him outside his flat near New York's Central Park.
Seven years ago Harrison was forced to fight off an intruder who managed to stab him in the chest after he had broken into his home.
McCartney beefed up his security after both attacks.
That the attacks happened at his family home where he and late wife Linda raised their children had added to fears.
"This was the most frightening incident they have ever had at Peasmarsh," an insider said.
"Everyone was terrified that the guy could turn nasty.
"No one knew if he was armed or whether he wanted to attack someone.
"They were worried that this madman could come face to face with Paul."
McCartney was expected to be home at the time of the attack but had stayed later than thought to finish lunch with friends at a nearby pub.
After being halted by the trees and fence, the man turned his car around and sped away from the McCartney farm as police arrived.
They chased him through country lanes and eventually arrested him after he gave himself up in a neighbouring village.
"He was initially arrested on suspicion of criminal damage and failing to stop when challenged by police," a Sussex police spokesman said.
"He was later detained under the Mental Health Act and is not facing charges."
A string of strange fans have been camping outside McCartney's houses in recent months, while two weeks ago Sussex police investigated a man who spent four days trying to follow him in a blacked-out Volvo.

Harrison had one of the best security systems money can buy, and the guy still got in. If someone wants to...... They'll get McCartney too, just a matter of time I think.
As what what compels the guy? Obviously it's "GOD" telling him to do it, just like Chapman and Abram.... Right.

Hmmmm......actually, to me, the real God NEVER tells people to commit these kinds of crazy acts. Only some destructive inclination either inside the person, or coming from some mysterious outer place, would be "telling" the person to do these awful, terrible things. Just my two cents. I vote for positive thinking and positive vibes on this point: may all Beatle personnel be safe from any such senseless acts of evil and violence. May they remain free from annoying harassment from deranged, unbalanced people. May Ringo, Sir Paul, Sir George, Neil, and all others be continually in a bubble of protection from those with intentions of evil or just plain nuisances. Amen. The guy who thought he had to "get to McCartney", (??) hmmmm, couldn't he have just tastefully passed along a message if it was like, all that urgent? Sad, sad. I hope he receives quality treatment.

Agree, there's been enough tragedy, it has to stop. Whatever his purpose was, now that he's being treated as someone with mental health issues, he won't be heard from for the foreseeable future. Wonder if he wanted to deliver a warning?

I haven't yet figured out why, but I think there's something to this next article that's just published ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul McCartney: 'Elvis influenced Sgt Pepper' Macca reveals how the King shaped legendary album 17.May.07 10:13am Paul McCartney has declared Elvis Presley as one of significant influences behind The Beatles 'Sgt Pepper' album. After the release of the 1967 record the band chose to stay at home rather than tour, and McCartney explained they got the idea from The King. "We had this idea that we'd make a record, and the record itself would go on tour for us," McCartney told Rolling Stone. "That came from a story we'd heard about Elvis' Cadillac going on tour. We though that was an amazing idea: He doesn't go on tour, he just sends his Cadillac out. Fantastic!" The record has since been hailed as an influential classic, responsible for helping to develop the album as an artistic format rather than just a collection of songs, although it didn't impress The Beatles drummer Ringo Starr enough to be his personal favourite. "You cannot put down 'Sgt. Pepper'," Starr admitted, "but as a musician, I preferred 'Revolver', and I preferred 'The White Album', because we were back to being musicians. It was like everybody got the madness out on 'Sgt. Pepper', so it served that purpose." www.nme.com/news/the-beatles/28403

LINKPaul McCartney has criticised George Bush saying that the American President has taken away the true meaning of ‘freedom’ post 9/11.
Talking about his song – also entitled ‘Freedom’ – which was written in the wake of the terrorist atrocities in America, McCartney blamed “militant” connotations behind his decision to remove it from his current set list.
The Beatle said: “I thought it was a great sentiment, and immediately post 9/11, I thought it was the right sentiment. But it got hijacked. And it got a bit of a militaristic meaning attached itself to it, and you found Mr. Bush using that kind of idea rather a lot in (a way) I felt altered the meaning of the song.”
McCartney then went on to reveal the true meaning behind the song. He said: “It was written from the point of view of, as I say, someone coming from a repressive, like let's say, European Jew coming to America. He just got away from Hitler. That kind of thing. Or that - in all its forms. That particularly happens in America. It happens here in the UK, but America I would reckon is global target of people escaping oppression.”
The singer did add that he hoped to include the song on his set list when he tours America again next year, but displayed reservations due to the association with the President’s current policy.

Good for him. It bodes well that he makes the distinction, and keeps his distance from the A-hole in chief.

He was played by his Illuminati handlers (ie Heather)? None of it was his fault? After 35 years of the shit he went through you'd think he be able to see it was a scam.... Whatever...

He is making as strong a statement as he is able.
Maybe he reads whats being said here and there, and took a timid step forward.. But he's well aware of what it is.

Yes, I think the underlying motivations and unethical things going down in high places in leadership (especially in America) will soon be seen and understood for what they are by much of the world. It is only a matter of time.
