The Beatles - davemchine - 07-25-2024 I’m having a weird moment. While cleaning house I put on the movie “yesterday“ from 2019. It’s about a man who wakes up and no one else has ever heard of a Beatles song. I’ve never liked the Beatles. Go ahead and throw the rotten fruit. But I’m finding that I enjoy listening to the songs in the movie. So apparently I dislike the Beatles, but I like Beatles songs. It’s weird. Re: The Beatles - wurm - 07-25-2024 Might be something in the air. Or in my case on the air. I was listening to The Beatles Channel on Sirius XM and at one point I started thinking of that movie. I've seen it twice already and will probably watch it again in the not too distant future. Re: The Beatles - Numo - 07-25-2024 There is a 2007 movie called Across The Universe that features covers of many classic Beatles songs. My wife prefers some of them to the original songs. https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0445922/ Re: The Beatles - anonymouse1 - 07-25-2024 We really enjoyed that 2019 movie.

Re: The Beatles - JoeM - 07-25-2024 I know a number of people, including Frank Zappa, that disliked them because of all the marketing that was everywhere during Beatlemania. Some people disliked the early music because it was too pop-ie, according to them. But if you think of it, there came a time when the Beatles thought their early music was too pop-ie and they didn’t want to continue writing pop songs. Re: The Beatles - Rolando - 07-26-2024 "Guitar groups are on their way out, Mr. Epstein" -Dick Rowe, Head of A&R, Decca Records, rejecting the Beatles. (He later denied ever having said this) https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/music/news/the-man-who-rejected-the-beatles-6782008.html I LOVE the Beatles I enjoyed both Across The Universe and Yesterday, tho I did cringe at times at both. I really did love the take on "I Want To Hold Your Hand" in Across The Universe https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7WXRNQT9ko They are definitely an improvement over the BeeGees Sgt Pepper Movie! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQ44a1LbwRw Even. tho the Title Track, "Got To Get You Into My Life" by Earth Wind & Fire and Aerosmith's "Come Together" are pretty good!

I like older Bob Dylan songs, but not any of his "newer" stuff of the last 30+ years. He is also horrible in concert. One of only two concerts that I've walked out of (at Chastain Park in 1989).

That makes me feel better. I thought I was a set of one. Lol Re: The Beatles - wurm - 07-26-2024 As a singer, Dylan is a great writer. I wouldn't walk across the street to see him perform. |
