Finally the long-awaited Carpool Karaoke with Beatles legend Sir Paul McCartney has been shared on YouTube - all 23 minutes of it! Excitement that the music legend would be taking part in the infamous segment in James Corden's show first started last week, when the official Facebook page shared a photo of the pair with the caption, 'It’s happening! Paul McCartney Carpool Karaoke premieres next week during our four shows in London!'.

Then earlier this week we were treated to a short snippet of the video which showed the pair driving around Liverpool, with Sir Paul even taking to the wheel at one point, as you can hear the engine rev.

Now, we finally get a chance to watch the episode in full and what a treat it is! The video starts with James in the driving seat as he says the lyrics from the Beatles' infamous song 'Help'. "I need somebody, not just anybody," says James, then Sir Paul gets into the passenger seat and offers to show James around Liverpool. Before long the pair are singing along to 'Drive My Car', as the camera shows Sir Paul taking to the wheel at one point.

In the segment they also discuss Sir Paul's songwriting, perform songs in a local pub and of course they also sing some of Paul's biggest hits. At one point in the video they even call in to the singer's childhood home and he gives James a tour of where he used to write with John Lennon.

Watch the full video below.

See some of James Corden's best Carpool Karaokes so far.

Filmed when James returned back to the UK for Christmas, the pair belt out some of Adele's classics including 'Hello' and 'Someone Like You'.


Whilst having a chat about Adele's fellow celebrities, the pair burst out into Spice Girls song 'Wannabe' and even rap to Nicki Minaj!

Ed Sheeran

Perhaps the most anticipated Carpool ever! After his year long break from music Ed Sheeran returned with a bang!


Bringing his guitar into the car, Ed and James performed the likes of 'Shape Of You', 'Castle On The Hill' and 'Sing' and then Ed tried to fit A LOT of Malteasers into his mouth!

Harry, Niall, Liam and Louis joined James before they started their hiatus and to date it's one of our favourites!


The boys discussed life in the band and had perfect harmonies with James to some of their biggest songs.

James also asked Katy about her ever-changing appearance before having a sing-a-long to her catchy hits.

Bruno Mars

Bruno Mars dressed to impress for his episode of Carpool!


The 'Uptown Funk' singer showed he's still got the moves even when he's sitting down when himself and James belted out some of his biggest hits.

Lady Gaga

It wouldn't be Lady Gaga if she didn't show up wearing a totally unique outfit and that's exactly what happened during her Carpool episode!

Best friends Demi and Nick joined James back in June 2016 and they certainly didn't disappoint.


As well as singing hits such as 'Jealous', 'Close' and 'Heart Attack', the pair discussed who's dating who and even got out of the car to make a couple of dollars busking.

Michelle Obama and Missy Elliott

In perhaps the funniest Carpool ever, James visited the White House to pick up Michelle Obama for a special Carpool.


Singing some of Michelle's favourite songs, even rapper Missy Elliott made an appearance!
