He said: ‘[In] lockdown everyone cleaned out their cupboards and did all the stuff they’d been meaning to get around to. So [making an album] was my equivalent.

‘I wasn’t trying to make an album. So suddenly I had these 10 songs, I thought, What am I going to do with these? It was just the 10 because I didn’t know I was making an album.’

Paul went on to explain why he named his album McCartney III, saying: ‘I realised, because I played them myself, I’d done McCartney I and McCartney II in the same vein, that this would be McCartney III. So then it was like, OK, I see what I’m doing now.’

During lockdown, Paul stayed in the countryside with his daughter Mary and her children.

Of the experience, he went on: ‘I was really lucky. I was locked down with my daughter Mary and her family, and then I was able to go to the studio to work, it was a very safe place. We were distanced, we were always being very careful.  

‘I was on holiday in the beginning of the year and then lockdown hit, Covid hit, so I came back and I was locked down in the country.

‘[It] was good as it meant I was hanging out with four of my grand-kids so suddenly that was great.

‘I was able to go in the studio. The government said you can go to work only if you can’t work at home. So I don’t have a home studio, my home studio is 20 minutes away.

‘So then I just started thinking, what about that song I had a few months ago that I never finished. So we pulled that out and I’d work on that’.   

Few places in the world have seen any upside to the Covid-19 pandemic, but St Barts might just be one of the rare tourist destinations to benefit with a host of celebrities flocking to the Caribbean island for a New Year getaway.
