Offline I’ll get the ball rolling:
1.Your Favorite Beatle? George 
Daww he’s so cute
2. Favourite Beatles song: Hard to pick but Dear Prudence , at the moment anyways
3. Favourite Beatles movie: A Hard Day’s Night
4. Favourite Beatles quote: “There’s a woman in the United States who predicted the plane we were
traveling on would crash. Now, a lot of people would like to think we were
scared into saying a prayer. What we did actually–we drank.” -Ringo. Always gives me a little chuckle
5. Beatles Song that Makes you Cry: Here Comes The Sun , mainly because George sings it and it’s so beautiful and his little voice cracks at “little darling”, my heart aches whenever I hear it.
6. Beatles Song that always Cheers you Up: Any Time At All or any of their early songs really.
7. Beatles Photo That Makes You Happy:
Poor Paul8. Favourite Beatles Album: Rubber Soul , they were getting into their own and had some brilliant songs from start til end but then again you can say that for any Beatles album.
9. Beatles picture makes you angry or sad: 
10. Favourite Beatles outfits: I love the black suits with the skinny ties.
11. Favourite Beatles era: Look wise: 1964-1965, music wise: 1967-1969
12. A Beatles Song you know all the words to: Well, I know the words to all of them so I’ll pick: I Want You (She’s so Heavy) that took me a while to learn.
13. Least Favourite Beatle Song: I don’t really have a least favourite, so Revolution 9
14. 5 Things you would change about the Beatles: Nothing they’re perfect just the way they are. Well if I had to pick 1. More movies 2. More Beatles cartoons 3. After the break-up if they had closer contact with each other. 4. If they’re CDs/Vinyl were cheaper, not really their problem but still €15 for one CD, you know I’ll buy it but damn you anyways 
5. That John and George’s passings were easier especially in John’s case, George was prepared and knew he was going to die, John’s just came Out Of The Blue and he didn’t get to say goodbye to anybody.
15. Favourite Beatles Books: I haven’t read a lot specifically on them, more strictly on one person Paul, John etc so The Beatles Anthology
16. Favourite art drawing: 
17. Favourite Beatles wife: Olivia or Linda but that’s a very hard question. 
18. Least favourite Beatles wife: Aww that’s mean, picking your least favourite person but Heather Mills, *cue boos*
19. Favourite Beatles Child: Dhani Harrison, his band thenewno2 and Fistful of Mercy are amazing and he’s so cute *silently fangirls*
20. Least favourite Beatles album: That’s hard, I like all of them but Magical Mystery Tour …I guess, I love all of their albums.
21. Beatles song you listen to when your sad: Once again Dear Prudence
22. Favourite Beatles instrument: George’s 1962 Fender Strat, Rocky 
23. Favourite Beatles tribute band: I don’t really listen to tribute bands but Bootleg Beatles are good from what I’ve heard.
24. Favourite staff member of The Beatles: Mal 
daawww Mal
25. Favourite Beatles poster: I have no idea where half of my posters are from because they’re from an unofficial calender 
26. Favourite Beatles moment: February 9th 1964, the Ed Sullivan show, my sweet Lord it’s amazing, I just can’t….*explodes*
27. Favourite Beatles Concert: Shea stadium, the atmosphere is amazing although the screaming girls are annoying I don’t blame them, I’d probably be the same 
28. Favourite Beatles hairstyle: The ’64 moptops
29. Favourite video: Slightly bias but them in Ireland: Ringo realising nobody is listening to him and talks about his mac is adorable
30. Least favourite Beatles concert: I don’t really have a least favourite but the rooftop concert in ’69, mainly because it was their last concert although the performance was amazing it’s bittersweet
Lordy that took yonks to type, so what about the rest of ye

Offline Allright, you twisted my rubber arm.
1.Your Favorite Beatle? Paul Effing McCartney!
2.Your Favorite Beatles song? “She Came In Through The Bathroom Window “
3- Your Favorite Beatles movie? Help !
4- Your favorite Beatles quote? “What a great f*****g band we were” – Paul McCartney
5- A Beatles song that makes you cry? When I hear “Golden Slumbers ” I tear up. I went with my spouse to see Paul McCartney last November. After the concert he made a short film of it (from us getting the tickets up until coming home from the concert). Just the way he filmed it, with that song playing from the concert, and in the video we are going “back home”.. gets me every time now.
6- A Beatles song that always cheers you up? “I Saw Her Standing There “
7.- A Beatles photo that makes you happy? This one is pretty good for cheer:
8.- Favorite Beatles album? I always say Sgt Pepper … but I really love Abbey Road … I guess it’s a tie for now.
9.- A Beatles picture makes you angry/sad? I wouldn’t say it necessarily makes me sad, but it’s kind of a gloomy picture: 
10- Favorite Beatles outfits? Without a doubt:
11- Favorite Beatles era? Magical Mystery Tour /Sgt Pepper
12- A Beatles song you know all the words to? A large percentage of them. If I have to choose one just for the survey I will say “Yesterday ” because I have known it the longest.
13- Your least favorite Beatles song? “Run For Your Life “
14- 5 Things you would change about the Beatles? Not a thing.
15- Your favorite Beatles book? The Anthology.
16- Favorite art drawing from or of the Beatles? Fiona Fu is amazing. A lot of it is slash but whatever, it’s so good. I am using her drawings for a tattoo next week. Here’s an example (of a tame picture):
17- Your favorite Beatles wife? Lovely Linda McCartney, all the way. She’s my hero.
18- Your least favorite Beatles wife? *blech* Paul’s second wife…. I’m not even gonna type it.. 
19- Your favorite Beatles child? I would say Stella McCartney because of the cruelty-free influence she has on the fashion world.
20- Your least favorite Beatles album? I hate answering these ones, they are all good… but if I have to choose I will say “With The Beatles “… but it still rules! Just for comparisons sake..
21- A Beatles song you listen to when your sad? I guess “Eleanor Rigby ” would be suiting.. or “Yesterday “. That was a go-to song for me in high school when I was sad about something (usually a boy).
22- A favorite Beatles instrument? I do love that Hofner bass.
23- Favorite Beatles tribute band? I can’t pick I don’t know them well enough.
24- Favorite staff members of the Beatles? Mal Evans. Just seemed like a big teddy bear!
25- Favorite Beatles poster? I will also go with the White Album poster. Naked Paul and other randomness? Yes please!
26- Favorite Beatles moment? When they did the “All You Need Is Love ” broadcast across the world.
27- Your favorite Beatles concert? Shea Stadium I guess.
28- Your favorite Beatles hairstyle? Collectively? Then I would say Rubber Soul /Revolver era:
29- Your favorite video of the Beatles on youtube (could be anything, interviews, them goofing, whatever)? It’s really hard to chose, but probably this Shake spear Play they did:
30- Least favorite Beatles concert? Nope.

1.Your Favorite Beatle? All of them.
2.Your Favorite Beatles song Norwegian Wood
3- Your Favorite Beatles movie A Hard Day’s Night
4- Your favorite Beatles quote The one in my sig. If it has to be Beatle-era, then I guess it’s John’s “…the rest of you just rattle your jewelry.”
5- A Beatles song that makes you cry A lot of their songs give me chills, but they don’t make me cry. Maybe as a kid “Yesterday ” did.
6- A Beatles song that always cheers you up You Know My Name (Look Up the Number).
7.- A Beatles photo that makes you happy Anything from Mad Day Out, but especially this one (I see Egroeg Evoli and I chose similar ones). Especially given the fact that things had gotten tense for them. It’s nice to have a record of them looking like friends and brothers that summer.
8.- Favorite Beatles album Depends on the mood, but it’s between Rubber Soul and Revolver
Number 9- A Beatles picture makes you angry/sad
They look so unhappy and awkward, and John’s turning his back on Paul.
10- Favorite Beatles outfits
Just about anything 67-68: Sgt. Pepper Release Party/Our World/Mad Day Out
11- Favorite Beatles era See 10
12- A Beatles song you know all the words to You Know My Name (Look Up the Number)… joking… I know most of the lyrics to the early ones because of the cartoon singalongs.
13- Your least favorite Beatles song Run For Your Life
14- 5 Things you would change about the Beatles
a) John’s, George’s and Brian’s deaths
b) The horrible way they broke up.
c) On a related note, Apple Corps
d) That George would have been regarded as more than a “junior” member.
e) That I would have been alive and old enough to see them in concert.
15- Your favorite Beatles book
Revolution in the Head by Ian MacDonald
16- Favorite art drawing from or of the Beatles
Like LHL, anything by Fiona Fu. Also Beatles Rock Band art:
17- Your favorite Beatles wife Cynthia. She’s been through so much and gets so little credit for it.
18- Your least favorite Beatles wife I was going to say Yoko, but Heather really does beat her out.
19- Your favorite Beatles child Dhani. Julian’s a very close second if only for “Valotte.”
20- Your least favorite Beatles album Let It Be
21- A Beatles song you listen to when your sad Don’t have one.
22- A favorite Beatles instrument Paul’s tape loop machine. *g*
23- Favorite Beatles tribute band Fab Faux
24- Favorite staff members of the Beatles George Martin
25- Favorite Beatles poster Solarized Avedon:
26- Favorite Beatles moment “Can’t Buy Me Love ” in AHDN
27- Your favorite Beatles concert First Ed Sullivan appearance, if that can count as a concert
28- Your favorite Beatles hairstyle Magical Mystery Tour
29- Your favorite video of the Beatles on youtube (could be anything, interviews, them goofing, whatever) The interview where Paul slipped up and say they were just “w*****g.” And this dubbed video of Paul’s LSD interview never fails to crack me up:
30- Least favorite Beatles concert The first of the Budokan concerts where even they said they were sh*t (see Tony Barrow’s book pp. 183-184)

Offline I’m going to get around to doing this, and stop pulling people up on where they’re wrong, but the ’66 concerts where they heard themselves and thought they were s**t were the German gigs a few months earlier. They were quite happy with the Budokan concerts, just felt that the security services kept the audience from showing their enthusiasm. They practiced playing live after hearing how bad they were in Germany though, and I think the Budokan’s are great.

Offline 1.Your Favorite Beatle? Sir Paul McCartney !!!
2.Your Favorite Beatles song I’m not really sure; either Yesterday , Here, There And Everywhere , Hey Jude , or Happiness Is A Warm Gun , though it might not even be any of those.
3. Your Favorite Beatles movie Probably A Hard Day’s Night , but Help ! is a really close second.
4. Your favorite Beatles quote “They became the closest friends I’d ever had. I was an only child and suddenly I felt as though I’d got three brothers. We really looked out for each other and we had many laughs together. In the old days we’d have the hugest hotel suites, the whole floor of a hotel, and the four of us would end up in the bathroom, just to be with each other.” –Ringo Starr
5. A Beatles song that makes you cry None of them make me cry. If I’m in a particularly intense Beatles mood, then practically any of their songs can make me tear up, but I never actually cry about it. I definitely could if I let myself, but it seems a little daft for me to cry over my love for The Beatles, and get depressed over it.
6. A Beatles song that always cheers you up Almost any of them can cheer me up. If I want to listen to a song to cheer me up, Yesterday , Honey Pie , and Penny Lane would be ones that always work for me. They are all super happy songs, and I could listen to any of them twenty times in a row and I would still be intensely happy about it.
7. A Beatles photo that makes you happy
8. Favorite Beatles album Revolver
9. A Beatles picture makes you angry/sad
It doesn’t really make me angry or sad, but I really don’t like this picture. The only one who’s looking good is George. John and Ringo look like creeps, and I’m not digging Paul’s hair or shoes.
10. Favorite Beatles outfits
11. Favorite Beatles era Revolver to Pepper’s
12. A Beatles song you know all the words to Pretty much all of them. I was a little obsessed with learning the lyrics of their songs when I was first discovering their music.
13. Your least favorite Beatles song Not including Revolution 9 , It’s Only Love .
14. 5 Things you would change about the Beatles: Brian’s death (I feel like anything else I would change would have been way different had Brian not died)
15. Your favorite Beatles book The Beatles Anthology
16. Favorite art drawing from or of the Beatles I don’t have one
17. Your favorite Beatles wife Linda McCartney
18. Your least favorite Beatles wife As much as I want to say Yoko I have to go with Heather Mills.
19. Your favorite Beatles child Julian Lennon
20. Your least favorite Beatles album Let It Be
21. A Beatles song you listen to when you’re sad Yesterday seems to make me happiest, so that.
22. A favorite Beatles instrument George’s Country Gentleman
23. Favorite Beatles tribute band I have only seen The Liverpool Legends, so I’ll go with them.
24. Favorite staff members of the Beatles Mal Evans
25. Favorite Beatles poster
I actually have this poster framed in my room. I like it because they all look good here, even John, who I actually think looks best in that picture.
26. Favorite Beatles moment Not really favorite Beatles moment, but the Penny Lane music video is just about the greatest thing ever!!
27. Your favorite Beatles concert Washington Coliseum in ’64.
28. Your favorite Beatles hairstyle I like ’66 a lot, especially for Paul and George.
29. Your favorite video of the Beatles on youtube (could be anything, interviews, them goofing, whatever)
Oh my gosh, he is way too cute, that is seriously the most adorable thing ever! I just can’t take it, I think I’m about to die!!!
