6. Twist and Shout

7. Ohio (Not Beatles, but I need it for the story) by CSNY

This is the story of a 17 year old teenage girl called Nancy. Living in Kansas City and having the best school year ever. With her friends, Sally and Megan, she is rocking. Until She Hears The CSNY hit Ohio, about the Kent State Shootings of May 4, 1970. Learning more of the Attacks, She Falls into a major tailspin, helped by the Beatles Breakup of earlier in the year. 

8. She's Leaving Home

9. I'm Only Sleeping

10. Yesterday

11. Let It Be

12. Dear Prudence

13. Something

14. The End

15. A Hard Day's Night

She Almost Leaves Home, but she realises it was just a dream. Nancy's friends really took the Lyrics of Yesterday to Heart, and Blamed US President Richard Nixon, Leading to Death Thraets being sent to him. Sally and Megan Try to get Nancy out of the funk by playing her Let It Be and Dear Prudence, but it Doesn't work. In a last ditch effort, They Play Nancy Something, and It works. It was the End of Nancy's Funk, but her friends chalk it up to a A Hard Day's Night.

Hope you enjoyed the tale of Nancy.

Nice work all – these look like cool lists.

Have any of you listened to your lists yet?

Do You guys Mind I cheated and Added a Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young song……I really Like Ohio.

*17*

It's a rock opera, preliminarily entitled "Revolution"

Featuring: Paul McCartney (the narrator), John Lennon (the narrator, William, the Sun King), George Harrison (the Fool)

Side 1:

Tomorrow Never Knows

Sun King

The Fool on the Hill

Beware of Darkness (Harrison)

Oh My Love (Lennon)

Polythene Pam*

Run For Your Life

Happiness Is A Warm Gun

The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill

Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds

I Am The Walrus

While My Guitar Gently Weeps*

-The narrator instructs you to let tge story overwhelm your senses so you can enjoy it (Tomorrow Never Knows). He tells of a world where a despotic dictator rules using mind control to trick people into thinking they are happy (Sun King), despite the sun never rising and the people of the world stumble around in darkness. One person is immune, a crippled minstrel known only as the Fool. He is looked down upon by those who pass his hill (the Fool on the Hill). One day, he seizes a passer by, a young boy called William, and helps him overcome the tricks of the Sun King (Beware of Darkness). William is overcome with emotion (Oh My Love), and the two of them plot to overthrow the Sun King. William suggests getting to his mistress, Polytheme Pam (Polythene Pam). However, when they approach her, the Sun King flies into a rage (Run For Your Life), and Pam is banished. William suggests shooting the Sun King (Happiness Is A Warm Gun) and sets out to do so (The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill). However, he is hypnotised by the Sun King (Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds) and goes mad (I Am The Walrus). Distraught, the Fool plays a sad song on his guitar (While My Guitar Gently Weeps).

Side two:

Come Together

Revolution

She Said She Said

All You Need Is Love

While My Guitar Gently Weeps

Think For Yourself

Norwegian Wood/She Came In Through the Bathroom Window

Revolution 9/Heading For The Light (Traveling Wilburys)

Here Comes The Sun

The Fool calls for support from the people (Come Together), who are increasingly having periods of lucidity. However, they prefer the influence of the Sun King to the dark world they experience when lucid, so are anrgy at the Fool (Revolution). Pam comes to the rescue, with a speech that convinces the masses that lucidity is better than cruel lies (She Said She Said). The people agree that the darkness would be bareable with the help of each other (All You Need Is Love). With revolution in the air, the Fool makes a cry for change (While My Guitar Gently Weeps). However, as he is crippled, he is unable to kill the Sun King himself. Pam volunteers, and the Fool gives her a few words of advice (Think For Yourself). As the Sun King reminsces about his mistress in the bath(Norwegian Wood), Pam enters through the window and stabs his with her silver spoon (She Came In Through The Bathroom Window). The world descends into chaos as people crash down from their highs (Revolution 9), but the Fool, who is unaffected, senses change and genuine light (Heading For the Light). Finally, the sun rises for the first time, bringing true happiness (Here Comes The Sun).
