The Beatles

I'd like to open this up to just discussion about the greatest band to have ever existed, as far as musical talent, technical difficulty (of the music they played), and longest lasting/most influential on music as a whole. (don't get me wrong..there are other great bands. but you can't deny they have been around, famous, and popular for over 40 years. They definitly have stood the test of time)


I can't say i can pick a favorite, just because it's all so good and they're so tight with all their stuff, but I'll try and make a "Few Favorites" list.

Hey Bulldog
Yellow Submarine
Think For Yourself
Nowhere Man
Drive My Car
Doctor Robert
Eleanor Rigby
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (and Reprise)
Octopus's Garden

...Open to discusion. Please feel free to analyze, debate. Let's get deep fellas...

Nobody? come on, let's see some insight..

yellow submarine! lol....

WHY HAS NO-ONE WRITTEN IN THIS?
beatles kik ass =)
i'm with ya...

aww seriously. have you seen the movie? greatest creation ever. best music, great lines, good humor. all the way.

i'm going to see across the universe today.

yesterday is the greatest song of all time followed by strawberry fields

I'm so dissapointed, it's not playing anywhere around me. I really wanna see it, and by the time it's out on DVD, i'll be gone to paris...ugh..just gonna have to wait a year...


~personal fan of Hey Bulldog and All Together Now. Could just be cause the movie kicks so much ass..

oh my god that movie was a fuckin trip! some of the parts i thought were kinda weird. you know when she sings i wanna hold your hand? i think they might have totally butchered that song there. but i liked when they sang all you need is love and bono's roll in that movie was perfect...i didn't really know he could act

lol. This Across the Universe? (Only sayin that, cause they don't sing I Wanna Hold Your Hand in Yellow Submarine). Is it animated or real people? I don't know much about it at all...

yeah i meant across the universe

My favorites include Come Together, You Never Give Me Your Money - Sun King - Mean Mr. Mustard - Polythene Pam - She Came In Through The Bathroom Window - Golden Slumbers - Carry That Weight - The End - Her Majesty, Can't Buy Me Love, While My Guitar Gently Weeps, I'm So Tired, Back In The USSR, Baby's In Black........

How'd they make a new album? What? Two of them are dead...how'd they record a new album? what?

not brand new stuff...most of it is remastered

Its all remastered material, done by George Martin and his son. Its really a different take on many classic tunes. This is not a remaster in the usual sense. It actually mixes riffs and solos, puts them into the wrong songs and it works.

The new Love lp is remastered with lots of over dubs...and some of it is a little too over the top. The whole Lp is also available in surround sound...but I don't care much for most of the lp. It takes away from the classic sound...mind you it's interesting...but it doesn't hold a candle to the original stuff.

For my altime favorite beatles...I would have to say without hesitating...the White Album! Front to back(both sides, for us vinyl lovers). Revolver is also excellent. And oh yea....Abbey Road is awesome.

Drink!

gotta love that Mother Nature's Son, Everybody's Got Something To Hide Except For Me And My Monkey, Sexy Sadie, Helter Skelter stretch in there. That and the Mean Mr. Mustard, Polythene Pam, She Came In Through The Bathroom Window run on Abbey Road, are my favorites.

Man, Beatles are the GREATEST BAND OF ALL TIME! that's all there is.

I saw across the universe trippin balls , and i have to say. it was the greatest movie i have ever seem. probably this thought is LSD induced, but so what. Amazing music, acting and story line. really making you feel like you in the movie. they used the music to flow the music as a peice of art. The struggle and the story line that shined through was impressive. Anyone and everyone should see this movie. Though, if not trippin, might be a little odd, ( i pulled myself out of my trip and tried to focus on the movie during some crazy part to see if a reg. viewer wuold appreciate the movie as much as i did, and i thoguht it was wierd as shit. duno just a thought!)....!
