The Beatles

It is a revelation.... the more I rest on it, the more conspicuous it seems that I wasted ten years of my romanticising with music but not courting the Beatles. The Beatles! Show me a person who claims to have explored into their music and throws his verdict out calling them a quartet of 'thumb-sucking sissies' appreciated by a coterie of sorry nerds and I shall show you a foolhardy liar. With Lennon's poetry, Harrison's melodies, McCartney's vocals and Ringo's percussions, they rank at the top of my favourites second only to....well, The Doors. Listen to 'Let it Be' and you shall know of their innocent purity. Listen to 'Norwegian Wood' and you shall learn the happiness of knowing you're in love. Listen to 'Blackbird' and you'll never have to haplessly contemplate on metaphorical evocation. And listen to 'I'm only sleeping' and you shall realise that you were indeed sleeping all this time and you could always do with a little more of hibernation.
