Rock legend Paul McCartney is considering re-recording former Beatles hit When I'm 64, when he reaches the landmark in 2006.

McCartney's only surviving Beatle bandmate Ringo Starr resisted the temptation to mark the occasion when he turned 64 in July, but the rocker admits he'd consider "doing something" to celebrate the song he wrote for his father as a teenager and released in 1967 to coincide with his dad Jim's 64th birthday.

He says: "As the date looms ever nearer, I'm not making any particular plans. However, I've got a feeling that I won't be able to get away with it without doing something."
