Its a myth that either could sing. Ringo sang 99.7% and wrote 84.6% of those attributed to John and Paul.a-hard-days-night-ringo-15

L. Ron Hubbard. During an LSD trip John saw the L and thought it was a sign to mean Lennon. America laughed and laughed and feel even deeper in awe of the band, holding public bonfires in tribute like the one below.

I just pulled out my copy to see. It says here ” Ringo sang 99.7% and wrote 84.6% of the songs on this album.” Is that a misprint that led mmm astray?

When John and George went on a two month holiday to Nebraska, how many songs did Ringo and Paul record in their absence?

Ringo: 0.5

Trick question: it was Brian Epstein.  John Lennon had kaleidoscope eyes.  George had long blonde hair and eyes of blue.  Paul has seashell eyes.  Ringo has closed eyes (living is easy for him).

 

What is the title of William Shakespeare’s Beatles fanfiction play?
