Beatles poll

nb discussion allowed but not encouraged. wasn't Lennon a fakish cunt tho?

the T is biggest.

without the T, H and E, this poll is a sham.

I know but is it canon I felt not

but a nice twist on "I prefer the earlier work" so hats off to you

Now gods stand up for Ls!

i prefer the earlier words, the shorter words, the simpler words, before they got all proggy and fuckoff with that seven-letter creative-spelling shit.

look thats fair and well argued but the the in the Beatles is actually a cover version of the the in the drifters that they'd heard on pirate radio

so its clearly not eligible sorry

voted A I dont think Ringo's ever been as tight and in control as when he pronounces the A in beatles

course it had to be written for him by Lennon/McCartney but the kids fucking loved it. beAtles, he'd say and they'd love it

McCartney only admitted in 87 that he'd never understood the misspelling of beetles

Harrison OTOH went to the grave not knowing it wasn't beetles

voted A

you do know the A was a cover of the U in louvin brothers, right? just 'cause they changed the specifics of the letter doesn't make it original.

The first E is amazing, second is a shameless rehash.

shit I didnt know that thanks

there rly isnt enough coverage of these guys huh

went with the F

I think that the second e has a certain something but we'll never know after what barry white did to it in production

did u know, NV, that George invented the F by haply accident when he played an E too close to a stationery cupboard and some falling tippex cancelled the bottom line

Really wish they'd release "Carnival of P."

The symmetrical stuff going on in T is pretty remarkable. What isn't often noticed is that it's also the exact middle letter.

The second "E" is the quiet one.

The A was a late change when the previous E got dropped after Hemburg.

if we're not also going to do this for each letter of every song and album title i will set myself on fire in front of the cavern club

(voted 't' btw because without it they'd be the beales which is a bit too eastenders for a bunch of loveable lads from liverpool)

Which means that the "S" is the least important, because without it they would still be a Beatle.

who was Les and what was their problem with him?

He was too good, they decided he was the one that needed defeating.

"A" is the one that makes the name a stupid portmanteau band name rather than just another stupid animal band name. voted "A"

Betles?

They say if you spell the whole word backwards, it says where B is buried.

there is a Turkish Beatles tribute act called 'Meat The Beetles'

And one called "Beat the Meetles"

Voted S. that's how you know they're a "they."

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Now gods stand up for Ls!

for my 16th birthday, dad gave me an index card on which he'd penned "Leebats" and said "this is the correct order. give it a chance, and 'Leebats' will change your life."

did this thread actually offend someone?

Hmm, I think that covers most people's options also

I hope this poll is the first in a series

I'm definitely looking at doing the albums next

individually

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

RUNOFF POLL

gonna refer to them as the aelbtse from now on

why is the second E so bad and hated

xp do it. it will change your life!

more specifically, it will change the part of your life where you say, type, or write 'beatles'

thats the first e surely

aw fuck poll it again

I voted L for John (Lennon) :)

hmph allowed I guess

I voted B for the B (in apartment 23)

and bc 'eatles' sounds like a low fat snack brand like 'snackwells'

voted 't' btw because without it they'd be the beales which is a bit too eastenders for a bunch of loveable lads from liverpool)
