I actually just watched a Hard Day's Night on TV yesterday for the second time and fell in love with Ringo, for the second time. That is an AMAZING movie! Yellow Submarine is also magnificent.
Favorite Beatles songs though? That's tricky b/c they are all so revolutionary or beautiful or meaningful in their own way. But I've always liked "I'm so Tired." Also "Across the Universe" is my wake-up alarm song.
But trust me, there are TONS of Beatles fans out there haha maybe just not on this forum. But they are genius and untouchable/ uncomparable to anyone else in music, so people might not want to get into the whole Beatles thing because it's like talking about a touchy subject.

I have a tough time deciding which song I love by them the most. Sgt. Pepper is a real good album, so most of my faves are on there. But if I had to pick my top two I'd say Strawberry Fields Forever and I am the Walrus.
(maybe Dear Prudence.)

Choosing a favorite Beatles album? That's like choosing a favorite flavor of ice cream! However, I'd probably go with Revolver, or Abbey Road, Sgt. Peppers, Magical Mystery Tour, and The White album as favorites.
Solo, some of my favorite albums:
John: Plastic Ono Band, Mind Games, Walls and Bridges, Double Fantasy
Paul: Back To The Egg, Band On The Run, McCartney, Ram, Flaming Pie, Memory Almost Full, Venus and Mars, Tug Of War
George: All Things Must Pass, Cloud Nine, Extra Texture, Somewhere In England, Thirty Three & 1/3
Ringo: Vertical Man, Old Wave, Time Takes Time, Choose Love, Y Not
I also really like Julian and Sean Lennon's music, particularly Julian's. His songs don't sound like his father, but his voice is dead on. I was lucky enough to see him live in concert in 1998, and he did a cover of some Beatles and solo John songs...was almost eerie, hearing that voice, like John was still living and in the room with us.

No darling the sarcasm was that vamp666 had made the first post to find fans, and after 4 days no one had posted anything. He (she?) was being sarcastic: "Well glad to see so many beatles fans out there."Perrywinkle47 wrote:You don't like beatles?vamp666 wrote:Well glad to see so many beatles fans out there! (That was using sarcasm)
