WOAH!!! Was I waaaay off or what??
 
 I'll put it down to the 'accident' I had on Sunday. Must've banged my head as well.
 
 I do agree with the article somewhat though....as good as the Beatles were they weren't the be all and end all were they.
 
 
 There will always be 'poster children' for certain genre's and the Beatles come under that umbrella in my very humble opinion...just like The Clash, U2, Joy Division and as shite as they were, Nirvana.

I'll tell the truth, while I enjoy the Beatles, I've never loved them.  However, I've always bought into their greatness because SO many of the bands I listen to are described as having roots in the Beatles (or Pet Sounds, another album I have because I should be don't listen to...).  It's an interesting article (I've just scanned it; will read now....).

 The Beatles were more important than Reagan in unseating the Politburo!

 lew in from miami beach boac
 Didnâ??t get to bed last night
 On the way the paper bag was on my knee
 Man I had a dreadful flight
 
 Iâ??m back in the u.s.s.r.
 You donâ??t know how lucky you are boy
 Back in the u.s.s.r.
 
 Been away so long I hardly knew the place
 Gee itâ??s good to be back home
 Leave it till tomorrow to unpack my case
 Honey disconnect the phone
 
 Iâ??m back in the u.s.s.r.
 You donâ??t know how lucky you are boy
 Back in the u.s., back in the u.s., back in the u.s.s.r.
 
 Well the ukraine girls really knock me out
 They leave the west behind
 And moscow girls make me sing and shout
 That georgiaâ??s always on my mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mind
 
 Oh come on, oh yeah...
 
 Iâ??m back in the u.s.s.r.
 You donâ??t know how lucky you are boys
 Back in the u.s.s.r.
 
 Well the ukraine girls really knock me out

 And moscow girls make me sing and shout
 That georgiaâ??s always on my mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mind
 
 Oooh show me round your snow peaked mountains way down south
 Take me to your daddyâ??s farm
 Let me hear your balalaikaâ??s ringing out
 Come and keep your comrade warm
 
 Iâ??m back in the u.s.s.r.
 You donâ??t know how lucky you are boys
 Back in the u.s.s.r.
 
 [oh let me tell you honey
 Hey Iâ??m back...]
 
 
 On a different note I am afraid someone over-inflated Melanie Griffith  <img src="http://ak1.aka.eonline.com/7/1480/1218/0001/www.eonline.com/Features/Features/Cannes2001/Photo/Images/griffith.jpg" alt=" - " />

Well, I read that article and...
 
 ...it reminds of the old adage...
 
 Opinions are like assholes; everyone's got one.
 
 Now there's this quote on the article, about having a bad opinion on the Beatles:
 
 
Quote
Do and they'll burn you in the street.
Not a bad idea... not a bad idea at all. Muhahahahahahaha!    :p
