I find myself constantly watching the Beatles/Helen Shapiro video on YouTube ("Ready Steady Go!", 1963) because I can't get enough of how adorable it is  |

I can't go one day without hearing some reference to the Beatles or a Beatle member. It's weird!

Isn't it weird how our ears get attuned to hearing even the smallest passing reference to the band or one of its members?
I was channel surfing the other night, as I am apt to do, and an advertisement for Mind of Mencine (a show on Comedy Central) came on and this actor is portraying a judge who, it seems, is deciding who wins in the Paul McCartney/Heather Mills divorce. The punchline, I thought, was crude and somewhat of a low blow, but the point is, I wasn't even paying attention, but the mention of a Beatle name made me stop my surfing for a moment. (It was, afterall, just a commercial!)

Beatles music seems to serve any purpose these days.
Yesterday, I went to a police dogs demonstration, and what was the background music? Among others, panpipe versions of Let It Be, Yesterday, Hey Jude, Imagine...  |

The last episode of Anthology is amazing... reawakens my love for them all over again.

I'm looking forward to the US vs John Lennon. It was a nice touch for the people behind the film to reproduce the old "War is Over!-if you want it" signs. Although they were probably more concerned about making more money them making a statement against the war.

That reminds me of when I went to the Royal BC Museum. Not only do they have John's 1966 Rolls Royce in the lobby (I have a picture of me infront of it) but they were only playing Beatles hits when I was there. It was incredible because I barely hear them on the radio where I live. They get shunned on TV too, those "music channels" usually never give them a mention or play their videos.

Ah....awesome song.
After watching tons of videos of them live on youtube over the past two days, I can't help but say once again, these guys will NEVER be replaced, because they are the greatest thing that ever happened to music.
