Paul Williams was a true genius. And he set the tone for the 70's.

Paul Williams is the shit and definitely a star (then AND now). Despite what some people (*cough*) have to say about him, he’s laughing all the way to the bank. There’s a reason Daft Punk sought him out for their very own ‘swan song’. There’s a reason he’s the president of ASCAP and there’s a reason he was such a huge TV/movie personality in the 70s/80s--he’s that damn funny and talented. God bless him, we need more Paul Williams in life. My mission, Pinky, is to clone him and take over the world 😎✌🏼💕🌹😈

Pretty sad world back in the day that shorter people were harassed and beat up over something they had no control over. Sometimes I'd like to go back in the past when things were simpler, the music was better, and future looked bright but not under those circumstances. Props to Paul for overcoming that bullshit.

He was an effective and successful songwriter, but calling him a "star" is kind of a stretch. He never had a hit as a singer, and his top selling album peaked at #95 on the charts (around the same time as this interview). He did manage to get a lot of acting roles for a year or two before that dried up too. One of those guys who were only suited for the early 1970's, and could never have made it any other time in history.

Maybe. Being a "star" as in musical performer and actor was kind of a side gig for him. He made stars. I think he's still making couple mill per year just off fans. He's a star to me.

@@cheayunju Maybe I am a critical, educated person? I dunno. I don't deny his awards and wealth, but when I think of "70's star", I think more of unstoppable hitmakers like Elton John or someone like that. Williams wrote about half a dozen songs that were hits for other people, which is an achievement. But by the end of the 70's he had become as obscure as Gilbert O'Sullivan. If people are personally offended that I don't call him a star, then go ahead and call him a star. As another 70's flash-in-the-pan wrote, "everybody's a star..."
