**sister**.....thanks

[QUOTE=DeusExMachina]Yeah, I love Harrison's songs. On a slightly different note, does anyone else think Blackbird is really underrated? Quite possibly the best song on The White Album, in my opinion. Although Julia is really good too.[/QUOTE]

I think Blackbird is a little underrated...before I became crazy about the Beatles I had never heard it or even heard [I]of[/I] it. I dont think its the best song on the White Album though. Julia is not my favorite song..at all. It's alright sometimes, but Im not too crazy about it.

PerfectCircle963: hey do you like the beatles

Er... yeah. Thats exactly what I meant. Sorry...

Piggies is an alright song, never really caught my attention though.

Savoy Truffle is better than Piggies.

I had to bring up Blue Jay Way as a Harrison song. J'adore.

Blue Jay Way isnt my favortie Harrison song but it is kind of mesmerizing and eerie...which is cool.

While my Guitar Gently Weeps is my favourite.:) It includes Clapton so it oughta be good.

While My Guitar Gently weeps is my favorite too. my second favorite by Harrison would be Here Comes the Sun...I think. do you know why Harrison had Clapton play lead for WMGGW? is it just because they were friends..I never really knew why Harrison didnt play it himself.

did you know Harrison wrote Savoy Truffle for Clapton?..I thought that was kinda interesting...

Yeah Harrison played on the song "Badge" for Cream.:)

I think its partly because they were friends, and partly because he was having trouble writing the solo for it, and partly because they needed another person to play (ringo is playing drums, paul bass, john piano, george acoustic guitar, and clapton lead guitar)

were clapton and harrison friends after loyla? because I saw him playing at the concert for george thing

Ya know what does a great cover of While My Guitar Gently Weeps?

Yeah, they still got along really well afterwards. Harrison's favorite guitar was given to him by Clapton.

I don't have download software, sadly... does someone want to send me the Jeff Healey cover?

I would but something called firewall keeps on blocking my file transfers.:(

I dont download either.:)

Aww. Ok, I'll look for the CD. I've got some cash to kill.

Let It Be is an awesome song.


But until I get any albums other than Sgt Peppers, I'll remain by my statement that they're the most overrated band of ever.

It's funny how they remained friends for so long considering they were fighting over the same woman.

Good lord, could someone actually state why they think they're overated and not just some in a say they're overated and leave.

[QUOTE=DeusExMachina]Aww. Ok, I'll look for the CD. I've got some cash to kill.[/QUOTE]

It's on Hell To Pay. Which also has about 8 other top quality songs that you can listen to as well :thumb:


Let It Be has one of the catchiest melodies ever I says.

Its called jumpping the bandwagon, If he knew what he was talking about he would know they are not overrated.

[QUOTE=guitrguy]Its called jumpping the bandwagon, If he knew what he was talking about he would know they are not overrated.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, Let it Be is probably the only song he's heard by them but he's is going to be steriotypical and base them as a pop group that always sounds the same.

Some guy I go to school with said he didnt like the Beatles, so I asked him why not. He said he'd only heard two songs, Yellow Submarine(which he disliked) and A Hard Day's Night(which he said he liked)....those are the kind of people that bother me. A lot of people dont give the Beatles a chance because they havent heard enough from them. I bet half the people I know would flip out if they heard Helter Skelter and if I told them it was by the Beatles...

I don't think not having enough people would be a problem, they would just record it on a different track and layer it, right?

So? He doesn't like them but I bet he doesn't dislike them either.

Helter Skelter has the coolest riffs.

[QUOTE=rock not roll]So? He doesn't like them but I bet he doesn't dislike them either.[/QUOTE]

he said he hated them...I told him to listen to more songs and then tell me what he thought. if he still doesnt like them after hearing more songs, then thats just his opinion, and I'll drop it.

I hate the beatles they suck!!!!!

[QUOTE=towniceman]I hate the beatles they suck!!!!![/QUOTE]
Why do you think that? But I'm not disagreeing with your intelligently thought out post.
