GATHER 'ROUND ALL YOU CLOWNS...IN HONOUR OF THE RELEASE OF THE REMASTERED BEATLES BOX, I THOUGHT I'D CONTINUE THE DESERT ISLAND DISC THEME WITH MY TOP 50 FAVOURITE BEATLES SONGS. Here are my 50 favourite Beatles songs in alphabetical order:
Oh, you Yanks! The word is Git not Get! Good list. Are you buying the re-issues ?
ReplyDeleteOh you Brits! Actually I know the word is usually "git" however in the lyric sheet provided with the White album (as well as John Lennon's pronunciation of the word) it is spelled "get". Don't ax me.
ReplyDeleteBut oh yes I already bought the reissues the morning they came out and have been sufficiently beatlemaniafied since.
