Martinglez loves #2: The Beatles

Martinglez The Beatles are my all time favourite band, John Lennon is my all time favourite singer. Here is why i love The Beatles:

Their songs: Let's start by the most obvious reason, their songs. Just any song by them is excelent. The beautiful and inspiring Hey Jude, the happy and uplifting Here Comes the Sun, the revolutionary A Day in the Life, the comforting Yesterday... Just any of their songs is revolutionary.

Their personalities: Singers of today seem kind of bland when it comes to personality, but these had very interesting ones. John was kind of the leader and was pretty kind and warm. Paul was optimistic and energetic. George was quiet and witty.

They could manage any musical style: They could make good songs in almost any style. Pop, Rock, psychedelic, folk... They didn't just stick to one, they could be awesome in many others. Ringo was happy and goofy. We don't really see much personality with popular music now.

They were awesome alfter separation: Even then they could be awesome.
John had an awesome follow up with awesome songs like Imagine or Working Class Hero. He sadly got killed by a fan.
Paul had a great follow up mainly colaborating with the best musicians around (and Kanye and Rihanna). His 2 most notable duets are 'Ebony and Ivory' with Stevie Wonder and 'Say, Say, Say' with Michael Jackson. He is still pretty active today.
Ringo Starr: While not very well known he did some stuff here and there. He got in the Bilboard top 100 with 'Wings' recently. He is still active.
George Harrison: He also did some lesser known albums before his death in 2001.

Their movies: Their movies were actually good. I remember watching 'The Yellow Submarine' movie and liking it. All we get from today's celebrities is movies about their concerts.

Their lyrics: Their lyrics were genious: There's nothing you can do that can't be done / Nothing you can sing that can't be sung / Nothing you can say, but you can learn how to play the game / It's easy / All you need is love” from 'All You Need is Love, Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see” from 'Strawberry Fields forever' and And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make” from 'The End' are just three examples of the power and originality of their lyrics.

This is why i love The Beatles, the best band of all time in my opinion. They never fail to bring a smile to my face.

Hmm, good post. - Skullkid755

Thanks - Martinglez

FourFiveSeconds was mediocre. The Beatles are a boy band. Still a 4/5 though. - WonkeyDude98

Yeah, can you believe it was #5 on Todd in the Shadows top 10 hit songs of 2015? - Martinglez

It's because Todd likes Kanye and the Beatles. - WonkeyDude98
