The Bontee brothers is me. Well, no, that sounds wrong… they are they, and I am me, and we are all together…

What I mean is I was, I think, the one to start referring to the two accounts as the Bontee brothers. Never thought anyone would think the brothers were real.

The twins are both figments of my imagination, as are you all…

I thought i heard somewhere that the different accounts each belonged to a different brother roughly 4 years apart, i guess i was mistaken.

Since we’re on the topic, i wonder what’s under those apples.

Ha! I’ve done things like that before. Usually I borrow from whomever is sitting next to me.

moving this convo from the “You know you’re a hardcore Beatles fan when…” thread

The Hole Got Fixed said
No. 

To name a few: Breathless, September, basically all of the ‘Sounds of the Season’ album, American Girl… and that’s not counting the stuff she does live.

All the songs you listed are 1. covers (not written for her by somebody else and not her songs) and 2. not on any of her studio albums. And then you’re talking about a Christmas album? Most Christmas albums are filled with covers of Christmas songs. And what songs does she do on her tour that she doesn’t have a writers credit for? I saw her this summer and she didn’t sing one song she didn’t write.

There are plenty she does live she doesn’t have a credit for. I can’t be bothered getting the list up, but I remember seeing the Jackson 5 song I Want You Back.  

Basically, my point is, while yes, she wrote or co-wrote a massive proportion, she hasn’t done every single one like you claimed. You can’t claim covers don’t count – otherwise some very, very famous recordings cannot exist.

I was talking specifically about her studio albums though, not songs she just sings on tour (and as far as I know she didn’t perform any covers during her Reputation tour) or a Christmas album. 

The post I was replying to was implying that she doesn’t write her music anymore and has people write it for her. A cover song doesn’t count because that’s not her song. It wasn’t written by somebody else for her. There’s a difference.

It’s been ten days since I discovered this website…

And I have 82 posts so far!

… I’m not sure if that’s an achievement, underachievement, or just me being really bored the past ten days.

It’s been 51 days since I discovered this website and I have 853 posts. I can relate. paul-mccartney-thumb_gif

I don’t know about you, but for me it’s the third one. Except instead of ten days it’s like a month and a half.

As you can tell, I lead a very exciting life.

Personally, I don’t believe that whole theory anyway. I simply won’t believe it. I can’t accept it.

I mean, it’s stupid. Hey PID people– go listen to Let It Be and Maybe I’m Amazed and Hey Jude and all of Paul’s amazing post-66 work and tell me, with a straight face, that that is not Paul.

HELLO! Sorry I’ve been so absent, Chorus has been keeping me busy. But i have good news: I FINALLY DID IT! I’m successfully getting someone into the Beatles. I made a deal with my friend that I would learn about a band he likes if he learns about a band I like. So far he’s impressed. ahdn_john_08_gif
