ahdn_paul_06 I think you finally solved the Ahhs in A Day In The Life . After all these years, it was finally reviled that. . .

I believe the common term for the female version of a wizard is a witch (sorry SFF), but sometimes they can be Enchantresses.  I think SFF may prefer to go with Enchantress.

I say in speeches that a plausible mission of artists is to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit. I am then asked if I know of any artists who pulled that off. I reply, 'The Beatles did'.

…they’d have to solve the Aroooos underneath the Ahhhs then. That’s how I know I’m a hardcore Beatles fan…

I'm like Necko only I'm a bassist ukulele guitar synthesizer kazoo penguin and also everyone. Or is everyone me? Now I'm a confused bassist ukulele guitar synthesizer kazoo penguin everyone who is definitely not @Joe.  This has been true for 2016 & 2017 Sig-Badge.png but I may have to get more specific in the future.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I HAVE FINALLY FOUND THIS THREAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

You know you’re a hardcore Beatlemaniac when all of the a-hard-days-night-ringo-8, plus when:  

  • half of what you say is meaningless and the other half is comprised of Beatles references, in-jokes, quotes, etc.; 
  • you dream about the Beatles regularly;
  • you know the Beatles better than you know your extended relatives; 
  • you subconsciously believe that it’s still 1967 and resent anything that reminds you otherwise, such as recent photos of Paul; 
  • you harbour a burning desire to jump into a time machine and spend a day with John, Paul, George and Ringo; 
  • you burst into song every time anyone mentions anything with a Beatles’ song phrase in it (i.e., “Yesterday “, I Should Have Known Better “, “Getting Better “, etc.); 
  • you insist on playing the Albums* in chronological order; 
  • you automatically despise any and all covers of Beatles’ songs; 
  • you grin to yourself all day long when February 25, June 18, July 7, or October 9 roll around;
  • you refuse to put the Beatles and certain other artists in the same sentence. (Like One Direction. See? I avoided it successfully. Now I have to rest up from typing that vile name.) 

And many, many other things which I have no time to compile just now, because it is many hours past my bedtime. I will just note that I am SO glad I FINALLY found this thread after much searching. 

*Yes, capitalised.

@Beatlebug I’d say almost all of those those accurately describe me!

I’d like to make this amendment though:
“You harbour a burning desire to jump into a time machine and spend a day with John, Paul, George and Ringo, and save another day for pattie-boyd_02_gif

    When hearing some things spontaneously makes a song start in your head. For example, in class yesterday people were talking about how you could say “the (telephone) line is busy” but not “the line is engaged” (the former is the American way of saying it, the latter, British). As they were talking about it, I kept hearing Paul sing “the line’s engaged” in You Won’t See Me

    Happens to me all the time. Whenever something or someone can’t get through somewhere, “but I can’t get through, my haaaaands are tied” (from the same song). And a thousand other examples.

      Well not spend a day with them, but sure be there as their albums were released, received airplay, newspaper wrote about them and so on. And after all it’s not just about them, it’s also about the Byrds, the Kinks, the Stones,… From a musical point of view, those were the best times ever. I should have been born in 1943, not 1973.
