not the beatles!

do you have a favorite beatles choon? or is there one that you particularly hate? discuss.

oh yeah, and since this is my first forum thread, be nice and post lots ;)

If choon means song then...ok :) There's only one Beatles song I hate, and that's Revolution #9. I like everything else. I became a Beatles freak when I was 9 years old and all of their music is so intertwined with who I am. Lovelove love them. Couldn't choose a favorite if I tried. "I'll Follow the Sun" has a huge pull on me for some reason...it's very simple and short but it's soothing to me.

I can't even describe how the Beatles make me feel when I listen to them. I just get this joy in my heart...because it's all so frickin' beautiful to me. I sound like a total dork. But it's true. Good music associated with good memories.

I know I have plenty that I like to jam too. Things We Said Today, Oh Darling, Abbey Road Side 2, Mr. Kite, If I Needed Someone just are some of those I love playing.

I can't pick one, but I'll sing along with whatever you play for me.. that means you, JJR. ;)

I'll convince my boss to have the next Beatlefest in Edmonton. :)

I will love you madly forever and a day if you do. :)

I'll have to remind you later when it comes around, but every Beatlefest is broadcasted live on the internet at listenonline.net. The broadcasts unfortunately are not archived except for the Special guest speakers due to FCC demanding royalties for playing music on the net, but with the live streaming, you get everything. It is the next best thing to being there.

you totally have to remind me. or call me collect during a sing-along, i'll gladly take the charges. ;)

I can call you during a song on November 29th, the 1st Memorial for George Harrison's death, live from Strawberry Fields.

I know where you're coming from, but it's not the FCC that's demanding the royalties, it's the recording labels. the FCC doesn't have too much to do with internet music broadcasts.

i just got the white album and now have blackbird on repeat. i saw paul on tv singing it live at the queen's jubilee celebrations earlier this year, and now i have it on cd! wheeeeeee! easily my favorite beatles song next to can't buy me love. *grin*

Also a standard song to know if you want to call yourself a guitar player. I haven't learned it yet. I'd love too, but it's not easy.

i'm in the process of doing so... ;) but then, i've only had the cd since yesterday afternoon, so give me a chance :D i'll let you know how i get on, hehe :)

You'd be doing much better than me if you learned it....

being able to play it is one thing, but being able to play it well is quite another... lol :D
