Beatles legend Paul McCartney was awarded a prestigious Doctorate in Music at Yale University today (Monday). Over 1,000 students cheered and applauded as the musician accepted his honorary award.

This is a fair and just award for the man who came up with classics such as Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da and the simply divine We All Stand Together (with singing frogs!). Further proof that McCartney, not Lennon, was the inspired half of the famous songwriting duo.
