'AYNIS' was permitted to be heard in the final episode of 'The Prisoner', Fall Out' (4:58 in).

The very little I have seen from the above along with all that I have heard of the show does not encourage me to want to watch it.

"All You Need Is Shove"? a-hard-days-night-john-6

(I've never been interested in checking out "The Prisoner" myself, either, even though it's one of the most legendarily acclaimed series ever. Doesn't sound like my sort of thing; I prefer straightforward narratives to ambiguity. )

Paul: Yeah well… first of all, we’re bringing out a ‘Stamp Out Detroit’ campaign.

No idea if it's pop culture but I can't find a better thread, tho I think one does exist.

Anyway.

Random 'read a Wiki song entry and find the Beatles influence' moment.

'The Look' - Roxette

According to Gessle, guitarist Jonas Isacsson also had a "big impact" on the song, saying: "We asked him to play something in the style of George Harrison 's "I Want To Tell You " and "Taxman " from Revolver , and off he went. Great cocky riffs."

Wiki

You can clearly hear 'IWTTY' at the beginning when you know it's there.

 

Makes me wonder what's the most random bizarre song ever with a Beatles influence? If you go deep into a tribal community in the Amazon will you find one of their musical pieces has 'I Don't Want To Spoil The Party ' somewhere in it because one of their chiefs met a man in a local town who played him a Brazillian copy of 'The Beatles 65' back in 1973.

I was playing the classic game Larry Suit and at first, you're asked a series of questions to check if you were of legal age. This is one of those questions...

For kids with excellent parents, that just makes sure they are at least 5, I'd say. LOL

Yes, would an individual in say, Turkey or even Yemen, though Beatles are not top of their mind, maybe have a secret likeness for "Taxman ", or what would happen if I went to the zoo and put eaprhones on a Penquin, play him "I Am The Walrus "?

I've got a copy of (Beach Boys associates) Jan & Dean's "Little old lady from Pasadena" LP, released September 1964, and it's pretty remarkable how quickly the "AHDN " film had entered the popular culture, judging from this bit of liner notes, about a month after the film hit USA theaters, in July 1964

In the Zelda games Beedle has a mop top and, in Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker He gives you a Silver Membership card, which is reference to the Silver Beetles.
