I am watching the OU football game. They are playing Let It Be over the PA system in the stadium. 🙂

Someone in one of my classes randomly sang a few lines from Good Morning Good Morning a few days ago. I helped her out with the lyricsjohn-lennon-salute_gif

Some Beatley moments from Moscow:

– There was a poster by a Beatles cover band

– I saw a shop which had sold a collection by Stella McCartney

– When we entered a toy shop (I know that sounds weird, but it was actually the biggest toy store in Russia, soooo…paul-mccartney-facepalm_gif) they played Obladi Oblada

In this particular shop, I also found the snow-peaked mountains way down south…

… made out of LEGO bricks!!beatlemaniacs_02_gif

And, although it’s not exactly a Beatley moment, of course, I listened to Back In The USSR on the plane flight to Moscow and to When I Get Home and I’ll Be Back on the flight back home (or to be more precise, to The White Album and AHDN respectively).

Not once does the diversity seem forced -- the genius of the record is how the vaudevillian "When I'm 64" seems like a logical extension of "Within You Without You" and how it provides a gateway to the chiming guitars of "Lovely Rita. - Stephen T. Erlewine on Sgt Pepper's

I wouldve staryed the White Album exactly when I feel the beginning of the descent.

A Maccas ad has been on TV for the past couple of weeks with You Really Got A Hold On Me playing in the background.

The other day, I flipped through a comic book for children which is supposed to explain the newbuilt concert hall ‘Elbphilharmonie’ to them in a humoristic way. And, suddenly, on one page, this image appeared:

(I’d recommend focusing on the bottom right corner 😉 )

While trick-or-treating I fell into conversation with a lady who was a Beatlemaniac back in the day; we ended up talking Beatles a bit.

Would it make you feel any better if I point out that she mentioned Paul was her favourite, back in the day? @Ahhh Girl

Whilst in town yesterday, I heard a shop playing a cover of ‘A Hard Day’s Night ‘ — the ‘When I’m hoooooome’ — from across the street*. My hardcore-Beatles-fan radar range is extensive. a-hard-days-night-george-4

I also spotted a Union Jack among a bunch of bluegrass CDs which turned out to be an album called Bluegrass Beatles. The song selection had your usual hits, but it also included ‘If I Fell ‘, ‘Here, There And Everywhere ‘, and ‘I Will ‘, so I approved immensely. I heard a sample of it and it sounded quite good. paul-mccartney-thumb_gif

I also had a Led Zeppelin moment when I heard ‘The Song Remains The Same’ at a gas station, which made me quite happy. a-hard-days-night-george-9

*It was a proper Southern avenue too, none of that narrow Northern nonsense.

One of the contestants, named Hillary, on today’s episode of ‘Countdown’ was in ‘A Hard Day’s Night ‘, tho she does not appear on screen.

I was looking at the bags on Steve Madden’s website, and look at the name of this one

Also, a couple days ago, somebody asked me if I used to be obsessed with One Direction and I told them that I’ve never really listened to 1D but I used to be obsessed with The Beatles and still am. Her response was “ew”.
