A Hard Day's Night (1964)
March is here and we have a strong entry for this CutCat Reviews Beatles Albums series! However I wanna specify that this is the Album and not the movie, though the Movie is something I'd like to delve into at a later date~
I like the concept behind this cover, conveying some of their Range through multiple pictures. It was oddly hard to get a high resolution pic to put here (I ended up screenshotting the YT upload instead lmao), it's good the actual photos are high contrast. Far from my fav set of images but better than the US version lmao
Anyway, other than being the Album of the Film, this is notable for being the first All-Originals LP, as well as being very John heavy, with George leading vocals on one song, and Ringo having none. Before I hear 'em all, the ones that stick most in my mind are the title track and Can't Buy Me Love, so let's see how the whole album is to experience~
SIDE ONE
A Hard Day's Night: <TWAAAAAAANG--!> An amazing start (if a bit of a Headphones User Jumpscare) and a beautiful medley of their different instruments and vocals. The 2023 remix makes the distinct elements clearer, so I heartily endorse giving it a listen even if ya've heard the song or watched the movie hundreds of times!
I Should Have Known Better: Harmonica is still in heavy use here! After that, the first note is ...less than melodic, but the more words we get into the song the better it gets, until the chorus resets back to the long drawn out "I" again lol
If I Fell: The harmony really offers a pretty sound to this number. It kinda feels like a sequel song to I Wanna Hold Your Hand, albeit I do prefer that one. It's pretty but the way the Ex keeps coming up leaves me unsure of the intended Vibe. I like it more in the Film where John is serenading Ringo tbh :3c
I'm Happy Just to Dance With You: Oh hey, George! And dang, this is the 2nd song to reference Holding Hands, and again it isn't as bodacious as that, but I am enjoying this song on its own merits lmao. It's jaunty and yet casual, there's a warmth to the energy here. It's straightforward and sweet, I'd even go as far as to say it's a hidden gem, and the bass and drums have me moving about~
And I Love Her: A pretty Paul song that perhaps feels more like poetry. Groovy guitars and bongos lend a good atmosphere, and the lyrics paint a nice visual. It kinda feels like the sort of song that is best on a nighttime drive, even though vinyls weren't made for cars lol, just a nice vibe to it...
Tell Me Why: This album has a lot of distinct openings already, doesn't it? This is a Displeased Song, but there's a good groove occuring and dope vocal syncing. Like I Should Have Known Better, I prefer the parts of the song that aren't the title, however this one grows more on me than that lol. Annoyingly, this was not given a 2023 remix, so the lovely drumming work isn't as apparent as it deserves!
Can't Buy Me Love: CAN'T BUY ME LOOOO-OOOVE !! Like, man! That's another hugely catchy opening and refrain, innit~ It's all too easy to be cynical and point out how much cash these lads were raking in, but the words still ring as the truth, and the song is an all-around Bop! I like the little pauses in the instruments each time the "I don't care too much for money" line returns, it's all punctuated so nicely, and the SCREAM! And then an instrumental break between that and looping back into the verse is such an aural treat~
SIDE TWO
Any Time At All: Hmmm, sounds like it's aping From Me To You in sentiments, though obviously the melody of this is different. I'm inclined to put this in the heap of "Original Beatle Songs that still get lost in the shuffle even though it's perfectly decent", but not a hidden gem like I'm Happy Just To Dance With You is lol
I'll Cry Instead: A Bluesy number with a nice rhythm and fun uhh, middle eight? Though the vengeful flavour dampers my enjoyment, what have these "other girls" done to earn your threats, hm? It's not bad but it's not appealing.
Things We Said Today: Ahh yes, the famous reverse-nostalgia song! I like the sentiments but this time the music doesn't feel as memorable and hum-able. The chorus amps the energy up but this Paul one is firmly in the shadow of the other two solos he did on this album. But he do be right; love IS love!
When I Get Home: Hmmm..... this one ain't making a strong impression. The main thought I have is how it's title is similar to the refrain in AHDN "when I get home to you", but without the dope energy that one has. I'm starting to think they frontloaded this album, but there's still a couple'a songs left...!
You Can't Do That: I'm listening to the 2023 version and ooh hi Cowbell! ...wait a sec, a jealousy song? One with threats woven into it? :/ .....how come this was selected for the '23 Red Album? The chorus sounds better but nah, this ain't doing it for me.
I'll Be Back: Hmmm, after the Terminator video suggestions, I opened this song for a creepy stalker song [albeit with good instruments]. I'm bored of these vibes on side two!!!!
CONCLUSION
Best 3: A Hard Day's Night, And I Love Her, Can't Buy Me Love
Blurst 3: I'll Cry Instead, You Can't Do That, I'll Be Back
Overall Quality?: Woooow what a beast of two halves!! Side 1 is hit after hit with all the memorable numbers, and I was starting to wonder if this album was the stealth early best?? And then Side 2 is mostly "Meh" to "Ouugh I don't like this!". Damn. I guess overall I'd say it's Uneven, but with the caveat that side 1 is a lot better overall than the average set by Please Please Me and With The Beatles. Maybe they shoulda crammed a Ringo song in? ¬w¬;;
It's really annoying that Side Two drags it down so much. I like 3's but I'm Happy Just To Dance With You is a close contender for the top 3, but the ones I selected are just soooo Iconic, innit. If I was judging the album just based on the first side I'd say it's Really Great, but I'll hafta save more glowing praise for an album that has it all later down the line...
🪲🪲🪲🪲
Next tiiiiime, on Beatles Ball Z... we see the burnout that occurs after a film, an all-originals album, and of course, the Beatlemania that had them charged at by excited girls and weirdo reporters. Find out what happens in Beatles For Sale!

I kinda feel honored to witness the release of a new beatles song (which is btw really really good, I became a little melancholy). I mean, hey they are the most famous rockband (and, if you ask me, the best) and they made history and their songs are like so old, but still famous and now they are releasing another one?! My grandparents listened to them 60 years ago and a lot of people are like "What, you listen to the Beatles? Aren't they, you know, a bit old for you? Why don't you just listen to nowaday's music? Their songs are so old." But now there is a new song and they showed that they did not forget their fans, no matter if they are teenagers, children or adults.
So I feel kind of honored, you know? Don't know if you feel the same, but I wanted to share this with you.
Oh, I’m so with you. I’m old enough that I fell in love with the Beatles during Anthology, and let me tell you, it was an amazing time. New singles and albums coming out, AHDN and Help movies being re-released on video, Beatles posters and merch in every shop, music tv shows playing Rain and Paperback Writer vids as if they were brand new.
I ransacked my mum’s old record collection (who was there the first time, and is still bitter she wasn’t allowed to see them play at Lewisham Odeon), and this year I took her to visit Abbey Road Studio 2, where that With The Beatles LP she gave me was first recorded.
Derek Taylor said in 1964 that ‘the kids of AD 2000 will draw from the music much the same sense of well being and warmth as we do today’. David Frost joked in 1964 that Paul probably wouldn’t retire until the year 2010. John said that he hoped I Am The Walrus would still be interesting 100 years later. They were all right, but also grossly underestimated things.
So yeah, the fact that today there’s a brand new Beatles song being released, and that the people listening to it will include people that were there the first time, people that grew up listening to them, and brand new fans who have listened to them for the first time today… it’s a lot.
And one day, Paul and Ringo and all of us will be gone. And people will still be listening to The Beatles.
#sorry to go a bit melodramatic but today’s the day#I just love these boys#and thank you by the way!#the beatles#now and then

I'm bored and depressed so let's rate each of the Beatles different eras based on how they looked because I can't think of anything else that would make me happier right now 🤭💕
I'm doing this individually, and we're starting with George because where the fuck else would we start but with our resident It Girl 💅🏻
Teddy Bear (Pre-Beatles Era)
I'm not a huge fan of the Teddy Era myself but I have no choice but to respect it, as George does look good
This is the only time his hair is up instead of down during Beatles Era but it's still cute
He knew what look he wanted and stuck with it. I admire the dedication.
7/10 because if I saw him at a party or something he would definitely catch my attention
Bowl (1962-63)
I'm not a fan and honestly I don't think George was either
As we know he hated having his hair cut, and they gave him the most cringe hairstyle ever and he just had to deal with it
But since he's George and he looks cute regardless it doesn't look as bad as it should have lmao
6.5/10 because George will never receive less than a 6 he is physically incapable of looking bad. The extra half point is also because I find the unibrow quite endearing 🤭
Mop Top (1964-65)
Out of all the bowl-cut renditions this one is by far my fave
Every time I rewatch AHDN and Help! I can't get over how cute he looks
When it would get messy and become Onion Hair™️ >>> (see Beatles For Sale album cover for reference)
7.5/10 because it's cute but not my all-time favorite George era. Would definitely be an honorable mention though
Shaggy (1966)
Softest era yet tbh
This was around the time they went to India so it's very clear that George is soon going to enter his truest form
They're not pictured, but this was also the era of the tiny circle sunglasses, which were an unbelievable serve
9/10 and I want to kiss him on the tip of his nose
Spiritual Awakening (1967)
yes Yes YES
Long hair + mustache combo = hot sexy realness
I must also address the fact that I never thought facial hair was attractive until George. That's how much I love this
10000/10 absolutely perfect no complaints ever I'm in love 😍
Victorian Vampire Realness (1968)
Also known as Cherry's Gender Goals
The only era where I can say I actually look like him 😌
I feel like it's missing something with the lack of facial hair, but the difference is not that significant
9/10 based on vibes alone, and I only deducted a point because I simultaneously want to be him and be with him. This confuses me.
Get Up and Go (1969) (pls tell me you get that reference)
I hope to someday be even a percentage of how stylish this man is
The grown out shag and mustache does something to me 🥴
I watch the scene of him practicing his slide routine wayyy more than I should...
120000/10 I wanna run my fingers through his hair while we make out
Hippie Jesus (1970)
There are several versions of this look, and the ones where his hair is a bit shorter is the preferred one for me.
Here, however, he looks like a whimsical forest entity and I have a certain appreciation for that
He looks very warm and cozy and that makes me want to hug him. I feel he would give amazing hugs 🥰
7.5/10 and I want to braid his hair
Sophisticated Gardener (1971-72)
Okay. HEAR ME OUT.
I'M NOT A FAN OF BEARDS. We have already discussed that. SO WHY THE FUCK AM I SO ATTRACTED TO THIS
I do not like how hot he looks like this. It confuses me to the point that it turns me on even more.
43625749/10 I wanna lay on a blanket in his garden and make love for hours 🥵🥵🥵
Pantene Commercial Applicant (1973)
DO YOU SEE HOW GLORIOUS HIS HAIR LOOKS
Paired with a mustache and oh my god I am on my knees
He also looks amazing in hats. Any and all hats 😁
100/10 he looks majestic and I wanna know his hair care routine
Dark Horse Gender Thief (1974-75)
Alright listen here bitch (affectionate)
If I don't look like this or exude this energy at some point in my life I am going to be very upset
The BDE is off the charts and the proof of existence is irrefutable.
1000/10 he's sexy and we ALL know it. In my mind we're kissing on the mouth but whatever 😤
Crackerbox Poodle (1976)
soft bby
wanna have tea and cookies with him (I don't even like tea but I would do it for him)
cuddles and blankets on cold winter days ftw
10/10 he would get me out of a depressive episode when no one else could 🥺💕
Permalicious (1977-78)
Dilf (Literally. This was around the time Dhani was born)
Not a huge fan of perms but he still looks cool
The was also the continuation of the cardigan era from '76 so let's just say now I'm picking up on some hipster vibes if you know what I mean
9.5/10 I'd let him take me on a museum date and then to an overpriced coffee shop (I don't like coffee either but you get it). Would probably make out with him too.
Mullet Dad(dy) (1979-80)
Hawaiian shirts and tacky necklaces we love to see it
THE EARRINGS OH MY GOD THE EARRINGS
He was so handsome in this era AND FOR WHAT
10/10 I'd sleep with him if he wanted me to
Inverted Bowl (1981-83)
George bby what happened
Like Bowl but spiky(?)
Doesn't look terrible but it was the 80s what do you expect
7/10 and those points are mostly coming from the pattern on the shirt and the overwhelming dilf energy
Long Lost Full House Character (1984-85)
This look is so 80s but I'm not mad at it
I didn't like it at first but the more I stare at it the more I fall in love with it
That could just be the power of George regardless of what he looks like but are we really gonna act surprised about that
50/10 he would 100% be able to seduce me by doing absolutely nothing
Oof (1986)
Teddy Boy? More like Teddy Middle-Aged Man 😳
Babe what did you do
Still got a cute face but I don't know what to make of this hairstyle
7/10 this one and Inverted Bowl are in a race to the bottom lmao
Author's Photo at the End of the Book (1987)
The dilfiest dilf to ever dilf oh mY GOD 🥴
He looks like a college professor and when I tell you I would have PERFECT attendance (there's a fic on AO3 about that if you're interested)
When I say I like older men THIS IS WHAT I FUCKING MEAN
36842957/10 Making love to this man would be one of the best experiences of my life. I've never wanted to fuck a man in his forties so badly PLEASE he would make me feel so loved and appreciated I JUST KNOW IT 🥵
Nelson Wilbury (1988-90)
You already know (Dilf)
The End of the Line and Handle With Care MVs are something that can be so personal
He could talk to me about trees for hours and I would never get bored
13498275/10 We're fucking and then taking a hot bath afterwards sorry I don't make the rules
Businessman Couture (1991-93)
If you saw the previous rating of this era no you didn't
I don't know what I was on he's so fucking hot
He still looks like a college professor but I'm not gonna pretend for one second that I ain't into that shit
49527428/10 I orginally had this at a 6.5/10 and I feel like I have to apologize to some higher power out there for the carnal sin I committed. I should've chosen a photo from 1992 specifically but I didn't and I feel that was a mistake. He has ruined my standards for men.
Cool Guru (1994-97)
The long hair has made a comeback I love it so much 💕
Literally has the most warm and welcoming energy I have ever seen. If he hugged me I would probably start crying
Seems like he would enjoy those sweet romantic park lunch dates 🥰
9.5/10 I would take a meditation class with him
Wholesome Dad (1998-∞)
Deserves all the love and appreciation
Would definitely be constantly creating new recipes for the food from his garden
He knew the real meaning of life and we all could learn a thing or two from him
100/10 the vibes are immaculate and I wish I could give him a hug 🥺💕🥰
#This took me way too long lmao#I will do the other members at some point don't worry#Tag yourself I'm Dark Horse Gender Thief for obvious reasons#george harrison#the beatles#beatles#ringo starr#john lennon#paul mccartney

Hello, here are some Beatles asks for you to enjoy thinking over:
♡ ♡ ♡
Do you remember the first song by The Beatles that you heard? How did it make you feel?
2. What is your favourite moment in any of the Beatles films?
3. If I could offer you the use of a time machine, would you see The Beatles perform in Hamburg in 1962, or on the rooftop in 1969?
Ooooh. These are good ones- you go next @the-paper-apricot
1. Love Me Do- my dad had a cassette of the ‘red album’ that was released in the 70s. I remember making a rude remark on a road trip about my dad’s ‘old music’. Amazing how these boys consume my mind on a daily basis since I was 12 years old.
2. I recall getting that butterfly feeling in my belly watching John sing “I Should Have Known Better” to Pattie Boyd and the other school girls in AHDN. From that point on, I was a John girl.
3. Hamburg. No comparison. -The real rock n’ roll, the sweat, the sex, the leather, the art, the fighting. Oof, I’d do anything to be a bar fly at the Kaiserkeller watching these feral boys scream into the microphone night after night on pills and beer. It’s probably the thirsty cougar in me, but I’d absolutely let them all hit it.

I think this is where I stand right now. (Had to do this because of that last post lmao.)
(Don’t get me wrong—I do think the stuff in tier 3 is amazing, but they’re a little inconsistent for me they have a good handful of tracks I don’t really love or even tend to skip. To be fair, I could say that about any Beatle album though. Their placement is somewhat arbitrary! It’s hard.)
(I feel a little bad for putting Beatles For Sale in the bottom when it’s really not that different from AHDN and Help! but idk, I just think those two are stronger?)
#tiermaker didn’t include yellow submarine as an option#but it’s tier 5#I think my love for MMT is probably surprising to some but#it’s highs are so high#(strawberry fields might be my fav Beatles song)#and at some point even the ‘filler tracks’ grew on me enough that I decided it’s just#absolutely solid and a delight#(your mother should know and baby you’re a rich man get stuck in my head constantly)#the white album is super hit or miss for me but it’s hits are just so good#dear prudence??#helter skelter? wmggw?#martha my dear? i will? mother nature’s son?#so tired? yer blues? blackbird?

What would be the better rubber soul album closer in your opinion?
I think Wait would be great as a closer! It has a nice dramatic ending and thematically it works, in a similar vain to I'll Be Back on AHDN.
If someone wanted a song of "higher caliber" as their closer though, In My Life would fit the bill pretty perfectly as well. It would serve as a great transition into Revolver, with its forward-orientation and theme of letting go of nostalgia.
#the main problem with RFYL as a closer is a) the guitar solo is bad and b) the fadeout is lackluster#and c) the song is just not a good summation of the album as a whole. it fits in sonically more or less but :/#it feels like a bonus track when it's at the end#anon#ask#bugs#rubber soul

Beatles for Sale (1964)
What happens when you've used up an album's worth of original compositions and your schedule has been absolutely jam packed? If you're this band, ya release another album, naturally!
I'm a sucker for the Autumnal Aesthetic but these lads were not having a jolly time amongst gilded leaves! Featuring George's hair at peak Onion.
This one is infamously very Cover heavy, but does that really make it one of the weakest instalments? I've liked some'a their covers a lot, though the originals often outrank them with good reason. Let's see how the mixture here fares~
SIDE ONE
No Reply: It may reference that archaic device known to older people as a Telephone, but this number is shockingly timeless all the same! A jaunty song about a relationship that has either fizzled out, or the POV character has been cucked without a formal breakup. Even though it is about ghosting and resentment, it's got a great rhythm and energy to it, plus I'm also very fond of the "Your Face" version from the Anthology uploads.
I'm a Loser: Another oddly catchy song given the introspection and distinctly downbeat subject. There's something about how fun the music becomes at the chorus, peak juxtaposition~ Harmonica makes a bold return, too! It's one of the most dance-able depression songs so far!
Baby's in Black: A clear narrative is stated here, of the Singer lamenting that the object of his affections is busy grieving over someone else. I get the impression that the mourning is in fact literal, that the other beau is dead and buried, and that we ain't s'posed to side with the Main Character for being a self-centred berk about it (but some of the AHDN songs plant a seed of doubt for the Irony take, given how there's spite and selfishness in those...!). Anyway, the song itself is serviceable but not as notable as the prev numbers.
Rock and Roll Music: Ah, our first cover! It's good and well played but I don't think our lads really bring anything to the table that the Chuck Berry didn't already provide. I listened to that right after and neither version lights a fire in me.
I'll Follow the Sun: This has a very nice, mellow sound to it, but it has a bit of the snag I found on AHDN's 2nd side; that it seems to be a "You're gonna regret this" song. The reoccurring "But Tomorrow may rain, so I'll follow the Sun" sounds optimistic and hopeful but when it's surrounded by the passive aggressive sentiment... I will say it's possible I've got the wrong end of the stick [The prev album was an Experience lmao], but it does seem telling that this original number is like, never Iconic lol
Mr. Moonlight: MISTAAAAAAHHHHHH. Another cover but idk the original. Sounds a little more gay than normal, if they're gonna personify The Moon as a guy and declare their love for him :v
Kansas City / Hey Hey Hey Hey: I have a slight dislike of this just cause it took me longer to write the title out. So it's a cover, but of 2 songs mashed together? Paul is bringing his impression of a deeper voice and the instrumentation is very nice but eehhhh. It's not one I'm gonna go back to lmao
SIDE TWO
8 Days a Week: Finally some good fucking food!! A much needed injection of cheer, and while it seems the Bugs themselves didn't think that much of it sometimes a simple sweet song is a nice thing to boogie to.
Words of Love: Ah, Buddy Holly? Their idol and main reason for the Beatle moniker? Seems to be a decent cover of one of his numbers, while there ain't many lyrics the guitar and drums are very nice, though I could do without the clapping.
Honey Don't: Ringo's vocal return since With The Beatles! This song doesn't do much for me but the little flourishes thrown in like "Rock on George, for Ringo one time!" and fab guitar work have me smiling~
Every Little Thing: Annoyingly my brain keeps autofilling 'she does is magic' and then I find it harder to remember how this one sounds. But it's actually a stronger song on this here album, another Actually Pleasant one! The timpani has such a dramatic presence but for once I'm not concerned about the girl's safety like I am in other ones lmao
I Don't Want to Spoil the Party: This sad song is set to another jaunty rhythm that kicks into a higher gear for the bridge... hmm, seems to be the main thesis of this album, innit! Kudos for this POV feller to at least try being a bit more self aware. This ends a little bit abruptly, which makes it another shade different to I'm A Loser.
What You're Doing: "Oh babe you've crossed me and I'm gonna make a big deal about it in song form" song. I've heard lotsa these on this and the prev album!! But while I'm repeating the same sentiments about them doing that, I looove the guitar and drum work on this very mid lyrical assortment.
Everybody's Trying to be My Baby: Another tedious title! Another cover, too. George's only vocal on this one and I don't think it's great. I do like Rock and or Roll but the ones this album uses don't make a strong impression on me. Guitar good.
CONCLUSION
Best 3: No Reply, I'm a Loser, 8 Days a Week
Blurst 3: Kansas City/Hey [x4], What You're Doing, Everybody's [...] Baby
Overall Quality?: It took the 2nd side of the record for the first original song on the album to be energetic and sincere without slightly concealed bad vibes! That's pretty dang indicative of what the Burnout Album has to offer. There's a fair bit of mildly good Rock 'n' Roll, lotsa great instrument playing, but man oh man this isn't a Good Time Had By All.
But I must make clear that the good songs, are great! And some of the miseryfests are still catchy lol. Before I listened to all the songs I was ready to bat for this being an underrated gem, but hmmm, no actually it is a weak one. But I can give them the benefit of Early[ish] Day Feet Finding + HUGE MASSIVE PRESSURE being why it's a bit on the limp side. I felt more disappointed in A Hard Day's Night side 2 than with this, though my "C'mon dudes" reasoning is pretty much the same, and this has more Mid Covers.
🪲🪲🪲🪲
Well, after an underwhelming release like that and yet their fame continues to balloon bigger and bigger, would it be fair to say the Beatles needed Help!? ;3c
#The Beatles#Beatles for Sale#CutCat listens to Bug Music#Music Review#Not an April Fool's post#I like posting these on the 1st of each month!#I'm looking forward to Help! though I know some'a that is favoured by how much I like their stupid ass stoner flick lmao#I am not beating the Cover Hater allegations but I adore one that is coming up on Help! ^w^

For the Beatles ask game: 1, 9, 18!
thanks for the ask!!
1. When did you start listening to The Beatles?
okay so this is kind of in multiple stages. the first being, yk, birth. cause you pretty much can't exist without hearing the beatles. and then the second was in middle school, because my brother got really into them. that was my "george and revolver are my favorites because i'm not like the other girls" era (yes it was cringey but i was like 14). and then the third is in the last year, after watching get back. this is the first time i ever sat down and properly listened to each album.
9. Favorite Beatles movie that the Beatles made?
god that's hard. i think AHDN is their best movie. but help fills me with truly unending joy. gun to my head probably AHDN? but mostly because i've seen it more than help lol.
18. if you had the ability to sing one Beatles song perfectly, with a perfect voice, which one would you sing?
the first thing that came to mind is oh! darling. i would pay... a lot of money to be able to sing like paul on that song godDAMN.

My favourite is A Hard Day's Night. I love all the songs and its reminds me of that stupid movie and just makes me happy and think of the boys running around being silly. Also the opening chord is objectively ICONIC??
You’re totally right. AHDN has the most iconic album opener of their whole discography and the 1-2 punch of AHDN and I Should Have Known Better is iconic. AHDN also houses And I Love Her, which is in my top 5 if not top 3 all time favourite Beatles songs. Also Tell Me Why is the banger of all bangers?!?!?! ALL I DO IS HANG MY HEAD AND MOAN!!!!! Is there anything I can doOOOOO????

For the Beatles ask: 3,5,7,8,9,14,16,18,19 :)
Thank you! 💙
Beatles Asks 🥁 🎹
3. Hippie Beatles or Teddy Beatles?
Hippie...though I think they looked their best (and healthiest) in 1965.
5. Favorite movie to promote an album?
I go back and forth between AHDN and Help!... AHDN for the better dialog and Help! because I think it's the funnier sillier one.
7. Thoughts on Yoko Ono?
Ooh ok I usually stay away from this topic. Wasn't crazy about her breaking up John's marriage, but he was just as guilty of that too. And sitting right there in the middle of the recording sessions with him all the time was a bit intrusive too. Also the way she treated Julian and Paul in the past was pretty cold.
But on the flip side, that was the past. These days she seems like a cool lady. She had to witness her husband being murdered and has been strong through it all. She went on to raise a wonderful son Sean, who has formed a sweet bond with his brother Julian. And I think her and John did become a good match for each other.
8. Did you like Paul's beard?
Lol that depends. I love how it looks on the left with longer hair. Balance is the key here. The look he's sporting on the right is just...a big "no" for me. Also not a fan of the p*rnstache from the mid 70's.
9. Is there a song that you feel gets more attention than it needs?
Tough one. Maybe Help! and She Loves You?
14. Would you have George teach you guitar or Ringo teach you drums?
Since my skills are minimal with both instruments, I would say both!
16. Least favorite album?
I can't think of one! 🤔 Well it's not a Beatles record, but there was "A Toot and A Snore in '74" which had John and Paul jamming on it - and that's pretty much what it is - just jamming.
18. Is there an album or song that you hated but learned to love?
I don't really hate any Beatles songs besides "Revolution #9" which isn't exactly a song anyway. I wasn't wild about "Thank You Girl" but now it's grown on me because of how John Lennon later described it. It makes me laugh so it's a keeper for me.
19. Did you ever hate a member?
Nahhh "hate" is a strong word! Have I gotten annoyed when one of them would get a little attitude? Yes! I'll leave it at that. 😅

100-106
So, another anon asked these same numbers. I'm not gonna answer both asks, as a heads up.
100. What's your most listened to playlist?
That's hard. I like to shuffle my Liked Songs on Spotify more than anything. But if I had to pick a specific playlist....
It'd be my Emo Rock playlist.
101. What's your most listened to song?
Well I had to dig this shit up again lmao.
A Hard Day's Night by The Beatles
Honestly, Here Comes the Sun is #2 and the only reason it is, is because shuffle has AHDN bias lol.
102. What's your most listened to album?
I'm just gonna guess it's Revolver by The Beatles, to be honest.
103. If you were to make a supergroup of your favorite musicians who would you choose, what would they be called?
Gerard Way, Jared Leto, Davey Havok, Patrick Stump and Kurt Cobain. Their supergroup would unironically be called This Sucks.
104. Who would you want to see your favorite musicians collab with?
George Harrison collaborating with The Civil Wars would end me. Or Gerard Way and Jared Leto.
105. What’s something you’d like to see more represented in music?
Uh, instruments? Going back to actually using instruments and live vocals? Don't get me wrong, I like all the electronic stuff, but god. I miss bands. I miss belters who could manipulate their voices into wild ranges. I know that's still a thing, but it barely gets any attention nowadays.
106. Which musicians would you wish to teach you an instrument?
I want George Harrison to teach me the guitar.
