Well, I think it being called The Yellow Album was a reference to a previous Simpsons-related music album.
I'm Necko. I'm like Ringo except I wear necklaces.
I'm also ewe2 on weekends.

Offline Actually, mi amore is Italian. The Spanish ones are mundo, parasol, and Idk about paramucho and tantamucho, they aren’t real words, but para, tanta and mucho are, so I guess they count as Spanish. And the only one I know in Portuguese is obrigado.

Offline You estimate some person’s age by using Beatles and solo *coughGeorgecough* album releases as landmarks. For instance, ‘Hmmm, 18 in 1987– Cloud Nine year– that means he was born Abbey Road times, ’69, which means he’d be about forty-four then.’

Offline The local movie reviewer gives a great answer to this ridiculous question.
Dear Mick LaSalle: What the Beatles and Woody Allen have in common is this: They both bat around .500. Think about it. How many people in the creative arts can make that claim?
Jake Gerber, San Francisco
Dear Jake Gerber: I just looked at a list of Woody Allen features, and by my count he has 21 solidly good movies, while 23 that are either bad or mediocre — though I may have been too hard on a few of them. So I agree with you about Woody Allen’s average, depending on how we’re counting the mediocre movies. To extend the baseball analogy, if we count the mediocre movies as getting on base with an error, then he’s at .500. If we count them as the equivalent of drawing a walk, he’s higher.
In any case, .500 is remarkable enough, especially considering his productivity. As for the Beatles, if you’re talking about their movies, you might say they batted .500 (with “A Hard Day’s Night” and “Let It Be” on the plus side, and “Help ” and “Magical Mystery Tour ” on the negative). But in terms of recordings, even taking into consideration “Maxwell’s Silver Hammer” and bad covers (“Till There Was You ”), they’re still more in the .800 or .900 range.

Till There Was You was one of my first Beatles songs, and I always have had a huge soft spot for it. Me dear old dad sang me to sleep with it when I was a wee bairn, for cryin’ out loud!
