Paul McCartney has compared Taylor Swift's "worldwide fame" to the fan frenzy of Beatlemania.
The Beatles legend has given his thoughts on Swift's career and admits he can see a "parallel" between Taylor and his band because she has achieved a level of fame comparable to the hysteria which surrounded the Fab Four in the mid-1960s.
"You do see the parallel, you know the fame and the amount of fame and the worldwide fame that Taylor Swift has and that we had," he said during an appearance on BBC show Tracks Of My Years.
Asked if he would give any advice to Taylor he replied: "I don't think she needs any advice to tell you the truth ... If she asked for it, I definitely would. I'm like the older brother to that generation, or more like the granddad, actually."
