Paul McCartney's son James has made his live debut with band Light in the UK.

"Interestingly, John is the main answer for people who never go to church."

“When we first came here we'd never seen this kind of thing. TV studios in England were always on one floor - but here it is like an apartment block. The memory of being here is great.”


McCartney revealed one scary moment, which was when a floor manager reminded him how many viewers would be watching him perform a solo song.


“I had to do my so .....
