5 Songs The Beatles Shouldn't Have Done
No, not everything they did was great. Here's proof.
5. For You Blue
No George, the slide doesn't sound good. No, you're not a blues musician. Please stop. No, it's not in tune. No, it isn't cool.4. Octopus' Garden
I can just see it, Paul and John too high to write a new song. Somebody says "I know, let's let Ringo write one". After rolling around on the floor they call him and he says "Yeah, I got this one about living under the sea and it's got an octopus". After another hour of rolling around on the floor, they decide they just have to let him do it. Jokes on us. Thanks guys.3. Fool On The Hill
I know, let's take that annoying recorder instrument from grade school and make a whole annoying tune out of it.2. Maxwell's Silver Hammer
Why you always have someone test the acid first.1. Till There Was You
There was still plenty of Motown and early rock records to steal from, er, "cover", and they went with the Sound Of Music. Proof that Paul's a pussy.Special Consideration: The Continuing Story Of Bungalow Bill
Because you can hear Yoko. Favorite Feedback
Chim Chim from Austin sez:
The beatles have a catalog of crap they never should have done. Elvis is the king, Baby. Nixon should have let him deport them!
Ah Elvis, the Justin Timberlake of his day, but with less talent. At least Justin writes some of his own material.
A career which really only had 3 years of importance until 59 after which his big #1 hits included such gems as Rock A Hula Baby. Lennon was called the voice of a generation,
Elvis was called the fat guy in the funny suit.
So why did he career last so long? Because somebody said he sounded black and hip and white people will do whatever it takes to have one of their own come close to being hip. Even if it involves completely ripping off another race and trying to take credit for it. Besides, people in trailers
like velvet. I'm assuming yours is next to your painting of dogs playing poker which is next to your high school football jersey. You know, so you can remember the high point of your life.
