No George love? I'm definitely a George girl, favorite song is "While My Guitar Gently Weeps."

I have a Beatles phase at the moment.(like every few years  ) My "Beatles first time" happened when I was 12, after I saw "A hard days night" A real interest started when I was 13, (after my Take That phase was over, because I wasn't in love with Robbie Williams anymore ) I then read a John Lennon biography and liked him the best. I learned a lot about him since then, so my enthusiasm about him has cooled down. but that doesn't change the fact that he has written great songs and I have always tears in my eyes when I think about how he died and how inapprehensible that was. 
Is anyone of you old enough to remember the day he died.? I was about 8 month old back then.

I think Ringo is the coolest and the most laid back, George was great too and wrote cool songs and he was responsible that the Pythons could make "The life of Brian" and I will always love him just for that. Well Paul is Paul, he is basically The Beatle per se and was soooo cute in the 1960s.

What are your favourite songs?

But it's still unbelieveble what they have created, I mean for us it's normal but back then that kind of music and girls that went crazy, the parents must have thought that's the end of mankind. And I had the songs in school, like "Let it be" or later Imagine by John.

Anway, I have the urge to listen to the Beatles a lot at the moment, the funny thing is I started Yoga a couple of weeks ago and when my teacher started with "om" the song "Across the universe" was in my head again, I love it so much. The way John sings it is so effortless, although he didn't seem to breath during singing 

I don't know whether I've ever been "obsessed" with the Beatles, but I've always loved their music (as do my parents, who listened to them growing up, as have I in turn).  I don't know all the songs, but there are few that I've listened to that I don't like. 

A couple years ago for my mom's birthday, the three of us went to a show called "Rain," which is basically as close to a Beatles concert as you can get (perhaps better, because you're not in a room full of screaming people).  The guys dress as the Beatles (sound like them too) through the years.  Thought they introduce themselves as Rain, not The Beatles, they go through the career of the Beatles, playing all the best songs, like a retrospective except wearing clothes of the era of each song.  They even open the show with their first performance on the Ed Sullivan Show.  It's fantastic.

My favourite songs are probably Twist and Shout, Help, I Saw Her Standing There, Day Tripper, Eleanor Rigby.  I like A Day in the Life a lot as well, and as soon as I name a bunch I think of other great ones.  Because they're pretty much all great to me.
