What if John had died in 1966 instead of Paul? Would the band have continued on with John MkII assuming John MkII didn't think much of Yoko?
If Paul had stayed with Jane and hooked up with Peter Asher and Harry Nilsson, would "Peter, Paul and Harry" have taken off and been bigger than the Beatles?
I remember hearing John and one other Beatle on Radio 1, one Saturday afternoon, probably 1967 or 68. They were chatting with the interviewer, and replying to questions that fans had either mailed in, or were phoning in. I remember one specific question. A guy asked John if he had written the lyrics of one Beatles' song to the tune of another Beatles' song, because the lyrics fitted both tunes. John complimented the questioner on spotting it, and confirmed that that's what had happened. But I don't recall which were the two songs. What were they?
I could be mistaken, but I think he was plugging in Paul and John back in after someone unplugged them. EDIT: Oops already mentioned twice with more info. 'Tis but a wee jam.
What happened to Paul's demo of "Step Inside Love" that Kenny Everett played on his BBC Radio programme around 1968?
I don't play an instrument and don't know what makes good playing, so what's so bad about it? Genuine question.
Why did they make it so obvious the were struggling to fill the double White album with good material? I mean Savoy Truffle? George "I spy...what will I write a song about? Ill have one of those chocs first. Wait... hmmmm" John "Ill just fiddle around with these tapes with Yoko. We will come up with something" Ringo "Goodnight everybody....hmmm" Paul "Honey Pie is my ear bug for today. Ill get two songs out of this one, watch and learn guys. What rhymes with frantic?"
Found in 1986 in a London basement. Contents (some) auctioned in 1992. Paul placed a legal injunction on the original lyrics to With A Little Help From My Friends. Now, then there's the other briefcase....
What is the name of the Indian instrument at the beginning of 'Baby you're a rich man?' It sounds as if it would be a wind instrument but of course it may not be. It pops up a few times here and there. It shows it's ugly head at around 7 seconds into the song.
Cyn's weight aside, I don't believe John would have written "I want you" in any reference to Cyn at all, unless the words "completely out of my life" followed immediately.
