    I got 19 out of 20 on your guiz. I missed was wrong about the answer to what word was never spoken in "A Hard Day's Night" - your answer was
    "Beatles".

    I don't know if they said the word, but it sure as the Beatles logo was sure as hell printed on Ringo's drum-kit.


    Why is their even a question about the "Sargent Pepper Movie"? The Beatles wanted nothing to do with that horrible flick and disowned it. The music was not preformed by The Beatles. The movie was a trasy moneymaker that lost money after the
    Beatles spoke out about it.

    I often wonder why I miss them so much.At the peak of their heyday I was very young and didn't get them.I did learn that we understand more about life after life has moved on to another chapter.I do remember that I felt that people are real nosy and hurtful to people that stand out and have a truth to tell.They sure caght a good taste of hell being chased all over.

    WHY must we continue to be sujected to these jerks with their BORING "songs"?
    Isn't 45 YEARS ENOUGH?
    We have had them rammed down our throats my whole life and now they are even playing them in the department stores through the Muzak systems.
    But then again, through a Muzak system is more appropriate a format for their "music".

    Sadly, the better things they wrote are RARELY played. Just the mid 1960s crap. "I WANNA HOLE UR HAN..." Ugh...

    Robin,
    I am curious to know if you think they are jerks why would you bother reading the article? Is it that you are so bored complaining about your usual crap that you needed something new?

    You obviously have no appreciation for the historical perspective and the growth of them in the genre.

    Loved the time, loved the music. Beats today's rap crap all to heck.

    you are a jerk my dear. maybe you should go and try to do all of the things the beatles did. the REASON they play their music everywhere is becuase they are AMAZING at what the do and they could totally beat your butt at anything you try to do. get real man.

    You must live in a cave somewhere with no TV or radio. The Beatles not only created music that is endless in time but is used in every aspect of the media today. The Beatle music will out live your life for it has a place in history, do you ?

    This is for the losers posting comments. ROBIN, are you an idiot? Who's "ramming" these songs down your throat? Are you too stupid to change the radio dial, or change the channel? BARB, The Beatles and that child molester don't even belong in the same sentence. GAIL, you are just a complete moron, why don't you go read an article about, Beyonce, or Lil Wayne.

    The question about which song Paul McCartney played lead gutiar is wrong. "Dive My Car" Paul is not only on bass, he has one of his very few all bass gutiar solos. He and Harrison were playing the verses in duet with Harrion on his sonic blue Fender and Paul on his Hoffner bass.
