How 'bout some love for the greatest band of all time?

Yes, believe it or not, I searched. There is no actual thread about The Beatles.

So what's everyone's favorite album? Srgt. Pepper and Hard Day's Night are mine. Best song by them would probably be Norweigen Wood.

And they make some hella good movies, too. If you haven't seen A Hard Day's Night or Help!, I highly recommend doing so.

although when i was younger i didnt feel this way - now i can say that without a doubt that the Beatles were/are the best most influencial pop/rock band in the world - ever.

there's a good damn reason everyone on most of the planet knows at least 30 of their songs.


my favorite album : Revolver

impossible to pick a favorite song.. maybe Rain ..

I only really get into the Abbey Road LP these days. Very cool album. I over did it with the Beatles for years and am sick of them these days but still enjoy givin' that one a spin.
My favorite Beatles song is "I Want You (She's So Heavy)" or "Yesterday".

great band, although I think they were better at songwriting than the actual performing

I'll admit Im not a huge Beatles fan, but I have the recent "#1 Hits" CD and I play it every now and then.

I gotta say The Ballad of John and Yoko would have to be my favourite.

By the way, last summer when my hair was still long all my friends thought I looked like John Lennon. I dont really see it, but here's a pic from back then:

Well, according to my username I like the Beatles. I really recommend watching Yellow Submarine, that's always fun. Umm...my favorite album would probably be Srgt. Pepper and my favorite song is probably While My Guitar Gently Weeps.

Ahh yes, of course.

I always associated your screenname to the quote "Paul Allen is dead" by Patrick Bateman (Christian Bale) in the movie American Psycho.

Oh, that's clever, but no I'm just a Beatles dork. My username on almost every other forum is RingoIsAStarr, which almost no one understands. When I was little(more young than now) I adored Richard Starkey, just because he played the drums. Now, that I have my own opinion I respect George Harrison's solo carreer the most. How did you all get into the Beatles...any fond memories?

My mom was in to them, still is. So I've liked them for awhile.

And I, like you, respect Gerorge's career the most. He's got a great voice, and he was the best guitar player of the bunch.
