I'm listening to the Beatles right now, and a thought that just crossed my mind, is that you can really feel type of mood that each of their songs were written in, because their music reflects their lyrics so well.

Ulysses 05-18-2005 10:50 PM

I completely agree with that. Especially on Abbey Road, the music interacts and corresponds with the lyrical content and emotional feeling is created, its exceptional song writing in that regard. The tracks on Abbey Road each have a different tone which is expressed and in turn makes the listener feel it. Something, I Want You (She's So Heavy)..etc, they all work together and contrast magnificently.

Seafroggys, could you please send me that Get Back midi u made when you have the time..

indieposhhx 05-19-2005 08:15 AM

i think they are a band that's very hard to like.
i think many people are just in denial.
a lot oof people think they are way too PUNKXxx RAWxKxx for the Beatles.
i hate generic, close-minded kids. if i like something i will listen to it, not matter wgar genre it is.
((sorry i didnt mean to make that into a speech. but im sure some of you know what i mean.))

I know what you mean. It's a annoying when kids categorize themselves into the kind of the music they listen to, like they're making a gang or something. Just listen to the Beatles and shut up.

[QUOTE=pigonthewing82]Yeah it had been a while since I had listend to it, about two or three months. I had lost the cd so all I had was two or three tracks of it on a greatest hits. I actually had only listened to the cd in full only one or two times in full before I lost it. I had forgotten how great the instrumentals are. The solo's and fills really suprised me. Fixin a Hole and Sgt Peppers (first track and reprise) are the strongest instrumentally IMO.[/QUOTE]

I also think that [i]Within You Without You[/i] has to be along the top on as far as intrumentals goes on the album.

Within you without you has lyrics...so i don't think it's called an instrumental.

Like those Deadheads

Within You Without you has the most unbelievable lyrics

robo2448 05-20-2005 05:37 PM

I love George's really surreal psychadelic songs like that. Those are probably my favorite Harrison lyrics, right ahead of Something.

They are deep into the ways of Eastern religion, as was Harrison

Something is definitely my favorite Harrison song in almost all respects. The guitar solo is perfect.

he means the instrumental music on it is one of the best, not suggesting the song is an instrumental.

Is Yellow Subimarine the Soundtrack a good psychedelic album?

Eh, not really.

BludgeonySteve 05-20-2005 10:28 PM

do beatles fans have a cool name like Deadhead or something? I've never heard a term for a fan of the beatles.

Sgt._Joker 05-20-2005 10:33 PM

don;t think so/

MalcolmYoungRock 05-20-2005 11:45 PM

Beatlemaniac.

BludgeonySteve 05-21-2005 08:44 AM

[QUOTE=MalcolmYoungRock]Beatlemaniac.[/QUOTE]

that sucks :upset:

freakmeeko 05-21-2005 08:47 AM

My favorite stroke of the Beatles was when they started doing things of the experimental nature...mainly on their self-titled album.

clown_phobia 05-21-2005 05:08 PM

what about magical mystery tour? that's really psychadelic

blue3 05-21-2005 10:20 PM

Yeah. That album is awesome..

Sgt._Joker 05-21-2005 10:41 PM

does anyone know how john lennon learnt piano?

Seafroggys 05-21-2005 10:42 PM

^^^I'm assuming he picked it up by ear, like he did guitar, harmonica, and everything else.

slowhand 05-22-2005 11:48 AM

Yesterday, I ordered the Beatles Complete Scores. I should be having the book with me this Friday, or the Monday after that.

I can't wait.

Awesome, for piano?

slowhand 05-22-2005 12:27 PM

For all instruments.

Woodstock 05-22-2005 12:28 PM

It'd be nice to have that. I would use it all the time.

blue3 05-22-2005 12:34 PM

I can't read music notes that well, so that book would be pointless to me, unless it has guitar tabs..

slowhand 05-22-2005 12:39 PM

[QUOTE=blue3]I can't read music notes that well, so that book would be pointless to me, unless it has guitar tabs..[/QUOTE]

It has both.

Seafroggys 05-22-2005 12:43 PM

Its an excellent book. I've declared it my bible.
