Weren't they great?

Ooh I need your love babe. Guess you know it's true. Hope you need my love babe. Just like I need you. Hold me, love me, hold me, love me. I ain't got nothing but love babe. Eight days a week.






So, I am totally before The Beatles era, but still have the ability to enjoy timeless classics.

Because I always tend to support the underdog, I favored Ringo, just cos I think he needed love, but I also liked John cos he looked so sad in those eyes.

Never-the-less, and anyhow, I thought I'd dedicate a little space for them in my blog.

FYI- How did The Beatles decide on their name? (Thanks to WikiAnswers):

John said a man on a flaming pie came to him in a vision and said,"From this day forward you are Beatles with an "A". Yeah Right!! It is thought it was a play on words of the Crickets, Buddy Holly's back up band.
The main inspiration was Buddy Holly's band, The Crickets. ("The Beetles" were the rival gang in Marlon Brando's movie
The Wild One; this may also have been an influence.) Original group bassist Stuart Sutcliffe suggested the name; John Lennon was responsible for the B-E-A-T spelling, from beat music and the Beat Generation
