Usually when I actually notice the lyrics, I feel almost ashamed to like the Beatles. Nevertheless, it would be easier to blackmail someone for <i>not</i> liking them.

Well, if she wrote them, as Ozy seems to have thought, it's plagiarism, no?

I never really liked The Beatles as they were what my parents listened to. I was brought up on my sister's grunge and Rage Against The Machine collection.

And now it comes to light that Millie has had a suspicion that her mom drank lead paint as a child. A suspicion we all share at one point I'm sure! <!--emo&:lol:--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' /><!--endemo-->

It's several Beatles references. "Billy Shears" was an alias for Ringo Starr, "Polythene Pam" was a song (and a character in said song) by the Beatles, "Plasticine porters with looking glass ties" was a line from "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" (another Beatles song) and "Glass Onion" was yet another of their songs.

The Beatles must have wrote plenty of 'love' songs. <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo-->
I wonder if it'll finally get it's own forum too. I've always wanted a place online where I can talk about O&M.

I really like the Beatles. I like a lot of stuff, actually, ranging from classical music to black MEHTUL.

I was raised on a mixture of 80s hair bands and country music, but I try to absorb as much music trivia as I can so that things like this are funny <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo-->
