I love the Beatles. They didn't sell a lot of records, but everyone who bought one started a band.

The Yeah Yeah/Na Na band?

I'll take a thousand Hey Judes over ONE Silly Love Songs.

/or any of his solo crap, for that matter

Everyone knows that Ringo Starr was The Beatles.

Paul sucks.

Mugato: So the aliens get free music but we get the feds called on us.

Mugato wins the thread.

Paul McCartney was by far the most offensive Beatle.

Why so many Paul-haters?
/always liked Paul
//and George
///and John

Rotating cats and Hitler? We Godwinned ourselves to the galaxy, that's why nobody will talk to us.

I love the Beatles but Paul really does suck.
If Ringo even looks like he might keel over I'm going to hunt Paul down and do whatever I can to hasten his demise.
There is no way he should be allowed to be the last surviving Beatle. He's tainted their legacy quite enough as it is.

/Disclaimer: I wouldn't really do that, but I sure would want to.
//Free as a bird my arse.
///If you play "Free as a bird" backwards it says "cynical money making exercise".

Choochoochooseyou, it might be difficult for a Paul-liker to see it, but McCartney has a lot of something that Paul-haters interpret as this very annoying smarmy quality. He's so cock-punchable.

Hey, I love listening to Hey Jude, just not all the way through.

/thanks Steven Wright
//it works great for the start of Royal Tenenbaums

I'll see your Ringo and raise you a George:




/George thinks that this whole thing is daft

I don't like The Beatles.

Save for a few songs, none of their music appeals to me whatsoever. And most people only listen to them because "They're the beatles" IE: overrated mainstream.

And if I were to have my say on who I disliked most out of the group, it'd be Lennon. Guy left for Yoko, breaking up the band.

/sorry
//I get to have an opinion too

So does this mean we'll get to see Contact II?

Synopsis from Amazon.com:

"Jodie Foster stars as a young Dr. Asparagus, a brilliant but underappreciated scientist in the Vega system. She spends much of the movie walking around with headphones, shockingly not an iPod, listening for signs of intelligent life in the universe. Most officials in Vega laugh at her, but out of the blue she receives a radio signal from an ignored planet called Earth. At first, nobody quite understands what the musical lyric 'na, na na na na na na" means, but she, with the help of the CEO of mega company Halliburton, learn that Earthlings think in one dimension and that the song is actually a blueprint for some kind of no-bid, multi-trillion dollar government contract. They build a collosal gyroscope that even 'Viper" can't pilot, but they also built another transport machine at twice the cost. Dr. Asparagus is all set to go but at the last second, the Earthlings have used it in reverse, and have sent some Ambassador named Sir Paul McCartney. 'Hello,' he says, emerging from the pod, 'I was wondering if I can talk to my former wife? She was a Vegan.'"

Don't forget to PEEL SLOWLY AND SEE.

or sick of every other overplayed pop hit of the sixties and seventies.

Ringo Starr is the most unacclaimed singer/songwriter ever. He was also the best actor of the four, i.e. the film, "Hard Day's Night." Paul would make a bad friend at best; you'd have to watch your back.

Roland Deschain approves.

maybe he will run into the original round faced paul

Wasn't the whole reason "Hey Jude" is 7:11 was because Paul wanted to top the (at that time) longest commercial hit?

OTHER HEY JUDE FACTS
1. Song was written by Paul on his way to visit Lennon's son Julian, whom he was close to, as John headed for divorce.

2. It was the first Apple single. It was backed by "Revolution".

3. Watching the David Frost performance, John is already tranced out on the smack.

/cheeky

I'd rather hear "NA NA NA" than some rap idiot saying "YO YO YO."

Listen to "Hey Jude" on acid, you'll hear something totally life changing.

Listen to [insert anything here] on acid, you'll hear something totally life changing.

Although my personal favorite for such situations was "A Day in the Life." Damn that "orchestral orgasm" always seemed to take 5 minutes....

But of course we all know that LSD is now extinct.

He needs to do Beatallica's "Hey Dude".

I'm sorry, but that's just dumb. People like the Beatles because their music is good. But people have different tastes, and if you don't find their music good, that's fine. What's not fine is that most people who proudly proclaim they "don't like the Beatles" is because they are mindlessly reacting against what they call "overrated mainstream". Because if something's popular, obviously you can't like it. Judge your music on whether you personally like or not, not on how "mainstream" it is.

Anyone that writes music as good as 'BlackBird' can send his music whereever he pleases.

PS Edbear. I agree with your post. mp3's kind of kill music genres after a while

In 200 years people will still be listening to "Hey Jude".

And that's not a bad thing at all.



Am I the only person who thinks it's one of THE best rock songs of all time?


Show me one band that formed within the past 10 years that can make a track as good as Hey Jude. Seriously.

altinos He needs to do Beatallica's "Hey Dude".

Applause, I was wondering how long it would take.

I loved the Beatallica stuff so much that I decided to record some Beatles songs, but with a bluegrass twist.

Yeah, it was a good song... the first 30 billion times i heard it. And I've heard it more than most. My NAME is Jude.

-Jude

I smell an attention whore.
