The Fab Four

This post is a tribute to one of the greatest and most influential bands in the history of the world - THE BEATLES. Let's all take a minutes to stop and appreciate the musical genius of those four guys from Liverpool. On my way to work this morning, I was listening to Abbey Road and was struck yet again by the musical happiness that filled my ears. Even when singing about murder by a blow to the head with a hammer or an octopus' garden, those guys could make music. Now, I know there are people out there who don't like The Beatles. I respect that everyone has their own opinion. I might think you're crazy, but that is your opinion. However, if you try, for one second, to deny their musical genius and the influence they had on music as we know it today, I will fight you! What's your favorite Beatles song?

Hm, now I have the Maxwell's silver hammer thing going in my head (is it maxwell's?). Well, I like a lot of their songs, but the one that came to mind is the one that makes Zoie happy--Yellow Submarine. And now I'm second guessing myself because I should have gone to bed a few hours ago--hope that's their song. :)

I get it now! We were looking through Matt's songs in iTunes last night, and I realized where the title of your blog and your Lovers and Friends thing came from. :)

Hey Jenni, this is Amy (Head) Jensen! I just received your wedding invitation yesterday. Congratulations! So I thought I'd look you up. My email address is amyrjensen@hotmail.com. Email me, I would like to see how you're doing. And since I'm here, my favorite song really depends on what mood I'm in - sometimes it's Strawberry Fields, Yellow Submarine, Let It Be, Come Together, Yesterday, you get my drift.

Your tribute is such a good one I couldn't resist posting a comment. So two of my favs are Blackbird in acoustic and Yesterday. Very very nice.
