Small things please small minds. I just thought it was amusing.

 

To get back on topic

 

You want to watch Quantam of Solace again because you’re reminded that one of the Bond girls was called Strawberry Fields and that it also makes you happy.

There are beatle references and hat tippings all over the place.

You know you’re a hardcore Beatles fan when, while listening to “Rocket Man” for the first time in a long time, you instinctively sing “And all the science, I don’t understand: it’s just my job Eight Days A Week “. a-hard-days-night-john-7 a-hard-days-night-ringo-6a-hard-days-night-john-1

When after just 4 classes with my new chemistry teacher he says to me:

”What have you got with The Beatles on today, then?” Then he said, ”sing us a Beatles song, Emily”. I said no so he went ”you say goodbye and I say hello”.

Best chemistry class so far.

 

Oh yes, and then he ran off down the corridor with my new Beatles CD that my friend´s bought me. I got some funny looks as I was chasing him saying ”give it back, it´s mine”. Especially because I don´t usually raise my voice much. Funny times.

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.

You know you’re a hardcore Beatles fan when your best friend wakes you up by playing “Norwegian Wood ” and “Girl”, which she knows you absolutely cannot resist. You roll out of bed at exactly 9:17 after this–it is pure coincidence. Your mother then asks how you are feeling, to which you reply “I’m So Tired “. She follows up your statement with another question: “Why did you get up, then?”. Your friend replies, smirking, “Because John Lennon woke her up.” a-hard-days-night-john-7a-hard-days-night-john-1a-hard-days-night-john-6

…you plan “Birthday Parties” for them weeks in advance, clearing your calendar to make sure there are no conflicts.

To the fountain of perpetual mirth, let it roll for all its worth. And all the children boogie.

When Rossini’s Barber of Seville just isnt the same without George piping up halfway thru saying “I Need You by George Harrison “.

You know you’re a hardcore Beatles fan when you get in the car to go to school, and you’re so tired you do not want to go, but your brother plays Happiness Is A Warm Gun on the way, so you don’t care about being tired anymore. Then Martha My Dear starts as the car is being parked and you’re a little upset you can’t sit in the car and listen to the rest of the album.

Also when you get a paper which is due on October ninth, and when your teacher says the due date your first thought was John.

The opening message when I turn my phone on is ‘you know my name (look up the number)’.

Also when your mom buys a new pair of shoes and the first thing you notice is that the brand is called Yokono.

You know you’re a hardcore Beatles fan when you’re taking a Spanish quiz and you have to draw the definition for “major que nadie,” so you draw Paul McCartney since that means “better than anyone.”

You know you’re a hardcore Beatles fan when your iPod plays Sgt Pepper ‘s by itself and you immediately assume either John or George are haunting it. Which you find somewhat exciting.

ahdn_paul_06 Did that sound wrong?

You seriously consider downloading a badly pressed, edited and noisy version of Penny Lane just to hear what it sounds like but realise it would just annoy you. Same goes for heavily edited versions of White Album tracks which were included on the reel to reel tape.

You know you’re a hardcore Beatles fan when you consider putting an alarm on your iPod at 9:10 with a certain Let It Be song playing.

EDIT: And most of the ads you see on websites that have nothing to do with the Beatles are Beatles related. COINCIDENCE?

You are delighted that the first stage of the journey you are on ends just as side one of Abbey Road is ending.

You are equally delighted that the second stage of the journey ends just after side 2 finishes.
