The Beatles (lyrics, sing the song, ticket, 60s song, alternative)

Rubber Soul is an amazing album... I wish I could have heard it before hearing all of the hits first. Revolver I started to really enjoy more recently... and Let it be naked is fun but still growing on me. I used to own "A Hard Days Night", I don't know what the hell happened to it... gotta pick that one up again.

I'm going to do a rare return to this forum and defend Yoko Ono. What killed The Beatles was their massive time spent with each other. Even if you're with your best friend, 10+ years of seeing them every day, most hours of the day, you will grow sick of them. The Beatles started as boys in the beginning, and to really become men and actually LIVE their lives, the thing needed to end. People make Yoko a scapegoat because they refuse to believe that this is a band of regular(working class) guys, with passions and ideas who eventually started to drift from each other. Yoko fell in love and so did John. If Yoko is to be blamed, John should get just as much blame as her.

Couldn't agree more. John and Yoko just fell in love and I don't see how that is the problem. People are stupid when they say that bands should be prioritized over relationships. It's always the female that gets labelled as the intruder who wrecks everything. Band's don't last forever. It wasn't solely Yoko's fault.
