are you an asshole on purpose?

or are you unaware of it?

angst-y teenage me: Lennon

early 20s snarky me: Starr

me now: Harrison

McCartney was the better pop song writer - Wings singles are just so much more catchy than most of Lennon's solo stuff, but overall I much prefer Lennon. McCartney was responsible for the goofiest and most obnoxious Beatles tracks.

Honestly, their respective Christmas singles really sum up their styles in a nutshell.

so yeah Lennon

actually both, I agree w/ Ozzy

I don't know, I thought that was an appropriate response. I mean, it's the fucking Beatles. What hasn't already been said? Plus John's long dead and Paul doesn't give a shit what some wankers on a message board think.

Anyway I seriously do go for John. He did some really obnoxious stuff but I think he was always sincere and a few times he hit just the right spot.

The Cuntles

George Harrison.

Actually the drummer John Lennon kicked out in the beginning made some sick musique concrete, free jazz, designed a new type of Zeppelin, cut out his tongue on mescaline and jumped off the Eiffel tower wearing a bear suit

McCartney II is better than any of the solo Lennon stuff I've heard

I mean shit, how fucking good is this

Not a massive Beatles fan but Harrison wrote my favorite tracks from Revolver, White Album and Sgt Pepper. If I listen to Rubber Soul he probably wrote my favorite track on that too.

I can't fucking stand McCartney but the stick in the craw is he wrote Helter Skelter...

Yeah, Pete Best's story is an interesting one; kicked out of the Beatles early on and contemplated suicide once the band started to explode internationally. He only started receiving a windfall of cash from Royalties on the earliest tracks he recorded with the band when they were reissued in the 1990s. He's been touring and performing a lot of those early tracks along with standards from those days ever since.

Weird there are two drummers in that vid. Is the one at center stage a prop drummer or something?

Lemon or McChutney?

The Beatles are a classic example of a whole being greater than the sum of it's parts.. but i'd say Lennon was a much better solo artist than McCartney, who's pretty much Cliff Richard at this point.

 

Especially after this garbage:

 

lol

I'm a fan of this one, mainly because of Fools and Horses.

it's safe to say they both lost

I believe the correct answer is George Martin.

Lennon definitely, but I find neither particularly interesting.

Music McArtney

Words Lennon

Ae = Lennon

AFX = McArtney

That Destiny song is pure shitballs

My dad (session musician) worked with beatles back in the day. All cunts apparently. George Harrison was the worst though. Got arsey with the session guys when they wouldn't work overtime for free, he thought the honour of working with a beatle was enough. Out of control ego.

McCartney because of this: http://youtubedoubler.com/7H4Y
