The Beatles - a short homage

Tell me whyyyyy you cried,
and why you liiiiiiied to me.

I saw A Hard Day's Night last night and I've fallen in love with The Beatles on another level once again. John Lennon was murdered 28 years and 13 days ago. I want an Imagine tattoo. And I want to see the rest of their movies and read all their books (I don't know if any of them besides Lennon wrote books, but if they did I want to read them).

I've always liked their music, I sort of grew up with them because they're mom's favorite band. But I never appreciated it in the way it should be appreciated. Seeing Across The Universe for the first time earlier this year opened my eyes and ears to more of their music and the phenomenon that is The Beatles and now I can't get enough of them.

Everyone, even the ones who don't like their music, has to acknowledge the impact they have had on the musical history. That's a fact and there's no denying it.
