Hello, I’m Emilia and I’m from Sweden. I LOVE LOVE LOVE The Beatles. I can’t live one day without their music. I love everything with them, their music, of course, all the members and what they stand for. 

I’ve imagined alot of times that I was born in the 40’s or 50’s, I would love that. I become warm inside of that tought and then I get back to the reality. 

I’ve read alot of books about them and just about John etc, it feels like I get to know them because of that. That leads on to this: Sometimes when im alone I find myself thinking of them as my friends and in one way they are. And other times i find myself thinking that John and George are still alive somewhere, and when I remember the truth i become sad. But when I find myself in times of trouble I listen to The Beatles and everything gets better again.

Welcome, Emilia, please have an apple<3

I often imagine being born in the forties, as well, but then again, I’d rather be born in the thirties cause I definitely don’t(or would not have wanted to… What’s the tense for something that could not have happened?) want to miss out the fifties. But is there really a need to get back into reality?a-hard-days-night-john-6 the Beatles didn’t seem to favor it that much, either

Yes, welcome Emilia!

It’s hard to know when it’s best to have been born.

I was 10 years old when the Beatles arrived in America; pretty perfect in a way. I got to experience the Beatles one record, one album, one movie at a time. But I always wished I’d been a little older so my parents would have allowed me to go to a concert.

I agree with you, Emilia, about the John and George thing…. I look at their cute young pictures, but then I’m like, “Oh, yeah, they’re dead….”

Hi everyone, Sweeps here. I came across this site whilst searching for pictures of the famous rooftop concert. The forum looks excellent and I look forward to chatting about different aspects of the beatles career. My favourite albums are Hard Day’s Night, Rubber Soul and Let It Be . But they are all brilliant in their own way.  a-hard-days-night-ringo-10 (love the smileys)

Hi my name is tim i’m from austria and i’m 12 years old (that’s why my english is not so good). I’m a big beatles fan, they’re my favourite band next to the wings. My 3rd favourite band are the stones i think. The first beatles albums i knew were the red and the Blue Album because my father owned them and i like them so much that i got the 2009 stereo box set for christmas. In the other years i also got anthology, Live At The BBC , love, naked all wings albums and some lennon and some harrison albums

Hi atlesbe, and welcome. We have a few Spanish speakers here, though most conversation happens in English (I feel it becomes more inclusive if everybody uses the same language, though wouldn’t want people to start Spanish-only threads if they like).

EDIT that should have been “wouldn’t want people NOT to start Spanish-only threads if they like”. Basically, go ahead a-hard-days-night-george-10

Glad you could join us. I’m Joe – I run this site, and occasionally pop by the forum to apologise for breaking things.

Hello all, I will try and keep this brief as possible!

My name is Emily and I’m 13 years old (14 in July), I am from a town called Sutton Coldfield outside Birmingham in England, UK, Earth etc. I am a vegetarian, a pacifist and I believe strongly in equalism and rights for all!I have grown up listening to The Beatles because my dad is a bit of a fan but I only got into them myself at the start of this year when my music teacher played a section of ‘All My Loving ‘ in class, from then on I have been a massive fan, a beatlemaniac (sorry John, I know you didn’t like that expression).

I listen to The Beatles for an average of 1 hour-2 hours every day (my grades have declined since discovering them, needless to say!), apart from on Sundays because I listen to this fab radio show called Beatles Brunch on Absloute Radio 60’s, which is on for two hours (10.00-12.00), and then I listen to them in the afternoon as well for about another hour or two, so all in all, I suppose you could say that I like them quite a lot!

They rule most aspects of my life and I’m completely happy with that, I can’t believe I used to listen to people like Lady Gaga and Rihanna (sorry if there’s people out there that like them, I don’t mean to offend anybody!).

A couple of months ago, I read comments on YouTube saying ‘I wish I lived in the 60’s” and ”I’m a 60’s girl at heart” and that kind of thing and I thought, god, that’s a bit wierd but, now, I can honestly say that I wish I had as well, I don’t feel as if I belong in the modern day society, which is actually quite a bad thing because it means that I fit in with very few people, but never mind, I’m me, and I’m happy with that!

So, that’s me, hello :)

Moving along in our God given ways, safety is sat by the fire/Sanctuary from these feverish smiles, left with a mark on the door.

(Passover - I. Curtis)
