@BeatleSoul confessed
My confession is that I’ve been talking to imaginary John and George in my granny’s house for about a month now and I like to believe they do hear me although they’d probably be laughing at all the nonsense I say.
Hope you don’t mind my asking — in English or Italian? And no, I don’t think you’re crazy. I talk to myself all the time, at least you’re talking to someone else (even if they’re not there). 
I also find myself singing bits of Beatles’ songs when they’re on point in a certain situation like “I’m Only Sleeping ” when I don’t want to wake up, etc.
Don’t we all? 
As for non-Beatles music I used to be a huge fan of Nirvana during the first years at upper secondary school and mostly progressive rock and grunge stuff anyway. Dad is a huge fan of Pink Floyd so I have a thing for some of their songs as well.
SOMEONE SAID PINK FLOYD 
That’s how I got Floyded, as well — my dad is a fan, so I sort of got brainwashed; then, once I started exploring their stuff for myself, I became an even bigger fan than he is.

Offline Its partly the longevity of his career. Since the mid-sixties he has been one of the premier guitarists, and consistently puts out good music. His easy going style combined with his technical skill have gained him a lot of fans, who really love listening to him play guitar.

I talk to myself lots of times automatically when I’m alone. It’s awkward when someone comes in the room and asks who you’re talking to… I’ve started to pretend to be singing a song to myself when someone walks in…that seems a bit less mental.

I talk to myself a lot of the time at work as it helps me remember what it is I am doing otherwise my brain goes down another track and I only remember 10 minutes later.
They’ll think i’m odd enough as it is so a bit of talking to myself wont make any difference.

We all might all be wiser and better off if we were to talk to those two more often. I think of it like “what would Geroge or John say” in this situation. Paul even still “talks” to John while composing songs.

I don’t have any of that, as I think it’s stupid to talk to people when you could walk your ass to their house and if they’re far away, call them. There are 2 reasons I think of this site differently from Myspace/Facebook/Twitter, You guys are complete strangers and all share a common interest in The Beatles.

Eric Clapton is an overrated guitarist that rose to fame with the band Cream, most notable for their songs Sunshine Of Your Love, White Room, and their cover of Robert Johnson’s Crossroads. During this time, he also played lead guitar on the solo for While My Guitar Gently Weeps and was in the music video for All You Need Is Love . After Cream’s split in 1969, Eric Clapton formed 2 short lived bands, Blind Faith (which you could say is Cream, as 2/3 Cream members are in Blind Faith) and Derek And The Dominoes. After that, he became a solo artist and began to make bad songs, such as the Bob Marley cover I Shot The Sherriff and the god awful ear bleeding Tears In Heaven.
Maybe you should try posting more.

Offline Wow. Um, what if I happen to do both? I appreciate social media when used the right way. I don’t see this forum any differently than any other social media. We talk about our common love of the Beatles here as well as other topics.
Eh, I don’t mind Clapton. He’s been pretty brilliant, imo. And Tears In Heaven doesn’t “make my ears bleed”. It makes me cry. It reminds me of my brother who passed away at 22.

Clapton’s cover of ‘I Shot The Sheriff’ is atrocious. ‘Tears In Heaven’ is ok without ever wanting to actually here it. ‘Wonderful Tonight’ is so saccharine. ‘Father’s Eyes’ is the only other song I can name off the top of my head and its terrible. Fail to see the appeal of Eric as a singer.
