When I think about what the Beatles achieved in those 8 years I find it ridiculous how young they were – I get what Paul said in ‘Somedays’

“Sometimes I laugh

I laugh to think how young we were”

Four youngsters in their twenties forever changing the world in so many ways. It’s seriously ridiculous.

And then you read the successes of ‘1’ decades after they split and

No idea which thread this goes. 

Was watching a YT video on ‘I Wat You (SSH)’ where it was stated that the simplicity in the lyrics of ‘LMD’, the Beatles first released single, is neatly matched by the simplicity of the lyrics in the last song all four Beatles were in the studio recording together, ‘IWY (SSH)’. Two very different recordings seven years apart but both having the simple words repeated. Not and never intended but very cool.

I realised I was a really hardcore beatles fan when I was explianing the outfits John and Yoko were wearing to my Father and he just looked at me and said “You’re too far down the rabbit hole”

I am also known as “Beatles Girl” by multipe substitute teachers at my school.

Any word is a Beatles reference, I can find a way.

and in most cases I can tell what year a photo of the Beatles was taken by their facial hair alone.

you bought a drum set with 3 toms, but took one away

you heard an anthology version of a beatles song and thought:”this is better than the album version”

every time you’re walking on a bridge you think:”i now declare this bridge open”

you bought an epiphone casino, took the pickguard off but leave the bracket on

…you picked up a cheap CD copy of Past Masters in a used bookstore to give to a coworker for Christmas, but then you remember that the stereo mixes of a lot of the tracks on Vol. 1 in particular are practically unlistenable, especially because the coworker in question listens to music in her truck a lot and said truck’s speakers aren’t all working… so you painstakingly compress all the tracks from Vol. 1 into mono using Audacity and burn it onto a blank CD for her… and then in the liner notes of your bootleg Mono Masters you catch yourself slipping into a rant about Apple Corps and how annoying it is that the mono versions aren’t more widely available like the Beach Boys ‘ mono albums are.

I blame this forum for turning me on to the whole world of audio recording and mixing, it’s ruined me as a listener and I cannot abide bad stereo anymore a-hard-days-night-paul-7

Some hardcore Briton Beatles fans answered this survey.

“The top moments in history Britons wish they’d witnessed”

At #2…”the Fab Four on stage between 1963 and 1966″

The Beatles with Ringo at the Star Club, Germany would be for me. Either that or a gig in 1963 before the screaming made them inaudible to the audience.
