Not sure if this would be 100% Ozy and Millie centered, so Im putting it in here

I love all the Beatles references in the comic. I myself am a huge fan of the Beatles (Im really just getting into them though, barely scratching the surface on the songs).

I was wondering how many Beatles fans are on the forums? What are you're favorite songs? Least?

Absolutely one of the best bands there was. They knew how to make good music with what they knew. They were a great credit to rock and roll, and I love their music as well.

I can't think of what exactly my favorite song is, but I think the album One was a great amalgamation of their best songs.

I think they were a great band, but VERY inconsitent. Had a wealth of fantastic songs ('Eleanor Rigby' is my fave) but some questionable decisions.

I like The Beatles! My first album that I remember is Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Which celebrated it's 40th anniversary this year.

Some people claim that the album is the best of all time. Do you agree?

Favorite Songs:

Eleanor Rigby
A Day In The Life
Yesterday
Paperback Writer
Get Back

To name a few...

I wondered how long it would take for this topic to get going, and yes the Beatles references make the comic SO much better IMO.

As for favorite songs/albums I think they're all great.

Love 'em :wag: John Lennon's one of my heroes. I wont sit here and say they were the greatest band of all time (because they're not for me personally. That would be Queen), but they definitely left the impact of one.

My favorite song is "You've got to Hide Your Love Away."

Eh.

I know their contribution to modern rock is undeniable. But when I ignore that and listen to the songs for what they are I find most of them mediocre. John Lennon had a few awesome songs though.

Also there is no "greatest band of all time". That's almost like saying that there is a greatest color of all time. Everything is purely subjective.

And I'm more of a Rolling Stones kinda gal.

WHEN IT GETS DARK I TOW YOUR HEART AWAY

Anyway, I forgot to add my own favorite songs.

All My Loving
I've Just Seen A Face
Fixing a Hole
Something
Lady Madonna
And Penny Lane.

I get my love of the Beatles from my father. Me and him pretty much think the Beatles are the best band to ever live, and we're both hoping this generation's Beatles will show up soon, although we're losing hope.

My favourite songs are:

Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds, We All Live in a Yellow Submarine and Help! would be my favourites ... but to be honest I don't like most of their songs.

The Who, The Stones and Status Quo all go back well into the '60s and have more enjoyable tunes to my ear :)

That's why I said "for me personally." With so many different people and so many different tastes, you can't give anyone that title. But you can most certainly say who YOU think is the greatest band of all time for YOU.
