Here are John's own comments on Did a Pony:

"I was just having fun with words. It was literally a nonsense song. You just take words and you stick them together, and you see if they have any...

One After 909 is a lot of fun. About two chords, but a nice melody and a funny lyric. I love how Paul and John sing that long "Weeeeeellllll!!" before they start each verse. It's so funny.:hilarious:...

Yes, it's hard to name a favorite album, but if I had to, it would be either The Beatles (aka The White Album) or Let It Be. Help is a great album too. I love ALMOST every song to death on that...

They did get "back to basics" for one album later on. Check out this tune. Lennon hated it, like he hated all his songs that had nonsense lyrics. But I like the melody and the atmosphere in this...

George played a solo and the recording was played backwards. If you play the song backwards, you can hear what George actually played (I haven't done this!).

It's a sound thing, I believe. When...

Perhaps you mean the guitar solo that is played backwards?

Yeah, I saw a rather recent "music book" for lower grades, and even that had OB-LA-DI OB-LA-DA, and only in Finnish. The beginning goes something like:

I love every song on this list, except I'm So Tired. It's good, but not a "WOW!" experience for me. But the reason I'm quoting is this post is Hey Bulldog. It's amazing. Once again it's one of those...

I did mention songs that I like. I mentioned both. I was a little harsh with that list, I see that now. And they don't actually "suck" (except "Not a second time" does IMO). I'd like to withdraw...

I was just being sarcastic. It never comes through in writing. We love the Beatles here, but at the same time we do our best so that the following generations will hate them. I was just joking. I...

You mentioned "Little child"... If the following songs weren't by the Beatles, I don't think many people would "give them the time of day". They aren't mentioned often even now:

"Tell me why",...

I probably came across as a "Beatles skeptic" in my post above. I must admit that I am a rather hopeless Beatles fan. :hilarious: It is my style to usually start with the negative stuff. "The Beatles...

I'm a Beatles fan, but I think they're in a position no human being should be allowed to be in. That is a position where one is above all criticism. Even Paul seems to believe this. He once mentioned...
