Beyoncé Thanks Sir Paul McCartney for ‘One of the Best Songs Ever Made’


Beyoncé called McCartney’s “Blackbird” one of the best songs ever made after performing her Cowboy Carter version, “Blackbiird,” in London.

Beyoncé closed out the final night of her Cowboy Carter tour’s six-show run at London’s Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Monday (June 16) with a heartfelt message to fans and a tribute to one of England’s most iconic songwriters. And it is a full circle moment to wear your beautiful daughter’s design,” Beyoncé wrote in an Instagram post, referencing her Cowboy Carter rendition of the Beatles’ 1968 classic “Blackbird.” Her version of the song, stylized as “Blackbiird,” reimagines the original with string flourishes and vocal contributions from four rising Black female country artists: Tanner Adell, Brittney Spencer, Reyna Roberts and Tiera Kennedy.
