I hate them.

I love The Beatles.
My favourite album is Revolver and my favourite song at the moment is probably I Feel Fine. My dad bought the new Love CD today. Its brilliant!  |

Bob Dylan once said: "The Stones could of easily written 'Yesterday'. But The Beatles could never of written 'Summer Romance'." |

That's why I like The Beatles. They quit before they became a mockery. |

! Well no, I don't really agree with you there!
The Beatles were the greatest and yes, they split before things had the chance to go tits up. I'm thinking of a certain group called Wings here.
If our boys had called it quits after Exile, then they'd be held in far, far higher regard. |

The new Beatles "Love" is a fabulous new remix of the old love songs, with a modern twist. Its cool. |

The Beatles were gods. Period. Anyone who doesn't know that needs to go back to Rock and Roll 101.
If this doesn't get JB out of the woodwork, I don't know what will. Come on, JB, I know you're getting apoplectic just reading this. You're gonna hurt yourself, kid. Let it out...you know you want to.

cough, cough , so weren't the Stones. Lemme tell you something .... this whole distinction of the beatles being a pop band and the Stones being a "real' rock n roll band is bull shit.
i agree, the early beatles live had an amazing, rhythmn guitar sound.....i wouldn't call it punk but it was full and a little dirty.
they were also a tighter band than the stones in thier early days.
i love all the beatles stuff but my favorite is the meet the beatles/beatles 65 era....those melodies and guitar chord progressions were completely orginal.
anyone who disputes that......hopleless. |

This is how I split the difference: The Beatles were the perfect songwriters. The Stones were the perfect band. |

As I've said earlier, the Love CD is fantastic. Not only have they cleverly mixed songs together, but also the actual remastering itself of the originals is sublime. Get Back ROARS along. Everything is crystal clear and very loud.
I should also add that everything you here is 100% The Beatles. The only extra George and Giles Martin added was a bit of guitar at the beginning of George Harrison’s While My Guitar Gently Weeps

If there is one magical phrase to come from the sixties it is "The Beatles"
Spoken aloud, it lights up the human spirit worldwide and decades on.

Not to quibble (honest), but the new thing on the album is the string section that George Martin scored and added to the original acoustic demo of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps".
And I agree, it's an incredible album.
Cheers. |

Don't worry. You are not quibbling. Thats what I meant. I didn't read the liner notes properly!
The first part of Strawberry Fields is a demo too. It's on Antholgy 2.
Abbey Road is playing on the computer at the moment. If here is a reason to despise Paul McCartney its Maxwel's Silver Hammer. Oh dear

---------------------------------------------------------
So Sgt. Pepper took you by surprise
You better see right through that mother's eyes
Those freaks was right when they said you was dead
The one mistake you made was in your head
Ah, how do you sleep?
Ah, how do you sleep at night?
You live with straights who tell you you was king
Jump when your momma tell you anything
The only thing you done was yesterday
And since you're gone you're just another day
Ah, how do you sleep?
Ah, how do you sleep at night?
Ah, how do you sleep?
Ah, how do you sleep at night?
A pretty face may last a year or two
But pretty soon they'll see what you can do
The sound you make is muzak to my ears
You must have learned something in all those years
Ah, how do you sleep?
Ah, how do you sleep at night?

arguably paul's worst song as a beatle. and to think...one of george's masterpieces that wound up on "all things must pass" could have been on that album!

All Things Must Pass is wonderful.
Yes, Maxwell's Silver Hammer is probably McCartneys worst effort as a Beatles. I suspect he wanted it to be a single! He did with Ob La Di Ob La Da. After his harrasment failed, he gave it Scaffold which incidently (I think) featured his brother.
McCartney is one of the musics mysteries. How can a guy who wrote and recorded classic after classic for around 8 years or so as a Beatle then turns out such mediocre crap? There was the odd flash of brilliance like Maybe I'm Amazed, but that was written when the Beatles were still going.
Another reason to hate Macca is Wonderful Christmas Time. The video was on a music channel last night. Its trurely sickening stuff. |

I just heard that for the first time a few days ago. I almost had to pull over the car and vomit. |
