The pop star said the 1968 track made her fall “in love” with Paul McCartney.
Sabrina Carpenter couldn’t help but gush over The Beatles’ 1968 song “Rocky Raccoon” and the track’s primary writer Paul McCartney on Thursday.
The pop star — in an interview with “Late Show” host Stephen Colbert — revealed that her father, David Carpenter, played her the song for the first time when she was “very, very young.”
“I was so mesmerized by that song and the songwriting of it that I fell in love with Paul McCartney. I was convinced that was my husband, my future husband” said Sabrina Carpenter, who has been nominated for six Grammy Awards including the “Best New Artist” category at the 2025 ceremony.
The “Please Please Please” singer added that McCartney, who was age 56 when she was born, was “quite old” but she was “so young” when she heard the song so she didn’t understand the difference when she looked at photos of the music icon.
The pop star, who achieved a feat on the Billboard Hot 100 chart this year that was once uniquely held by The Beatles, has previously showed love for “Rocky Raccoon” and included it in a playlist for Teen Vogue back in 2018.
