Him saying this on the day he DIED is crazy
They are so obvious
"To sum it up, Paul is a good songwriter and also he was John's partner before I became John's partner. And as John put it: "The first I picked Paul as a partner and next Yoko. First Paul McCartney and next Yoko Ono", something, I think, he said".
Here is the quote Yoko is referring to:
I was saying to somebody the other day, “There’s only two artists I’ve ever worked with for more than a one night stand, as it were. That’s Paul McCartney, and Yoko Ono.” And I think that’s a pretty damned good choice! […] Now George came through Paul, and Ringo came through George, although of course I had a say in where they came from. But the only – the person I actually picked as my partner, who I’d recognised had talent, and I could get on with, was Paul. Now, twelve or however many years later, I met Yoko, I had the same feeling. It was a different feel, but I had the same feeling. So I think as a talent scout, I’ve done pretty damn well!
— John Lennon, interview w/ Dave Sholin for RKO Radio. (December 8th, 1980)

Brian Epstein was looking at our stage presence in the early days when he found us… it was clear that he had a vision of us that was beyond the vision that we had of ourselves. So, he took us to a tailor, Beno Dorn. We went to this guy, and he made us up suits. The suits. It’s the simplest of ideas. It suddenly made us one person: a four-headed monster. – Paul McCartney          The Beatles – “I Saw Her Standing There” live in Washington DC (1964)

“PAUL: We often used to say to journalists, ‘Look, I haven’t got time for the interview, just make it up.’ So some of it’s arrived that way… you know, if it’s a good story, it sticks. Or we may have felt like joking that day. It’s summer and you’re in a pub having a drink and there’s a guy with a little book and he’s going ‘yayayayayaya’ so to alleviate that pressure, we started to try and plant lies to the press. We used to award each other points for the best story printed. One that George got in was that he was Tommy Steele’s cousin. That was a nice early one. It was wonderful because it turned it all around and the press stopped being a pressure and became a fun game. They didn’t mind. Anything to fill a page. I remember John saying to me, ‘God, I remember walking behind a group of press and you at some cocktail reception. I was just hovering near, and you were giving them the world’s greatest bullshit! Nor a word of it was true,’ he said. “I loved it, though, it was brilliant.” We did do that, so of course one or two of those stories have stuck.”

Welcome to the family!
Is this a safe space?
I didn't learn the names of the Beatles until this year, I'm twenty.
I used to call them Ringo, Jingo, Pingo, and Gingo. I was unaware that John Lennon was a Beatle.

I highly recommend becoming a Beatles fan
shoutout to the time on 6th grade music class when the teacher wanted us to play here comes the sun on the fancy xylophones. so before we did that she played the actual song and 6 grade me was like "woah...." so I wanted to listen to it again but I didn't want to go look it up so I just hoped she would play the actual song again (she didn't). then we played it in the xylophones and I forgot that ever happened. and then my choir teacher in this year has us sing hey jude. and now somehow I became a beatles fan kind of. thanks music teachers I blame you for this

May have reblogged this before, oh well. I need another drink baby 😍😍😍
“‘I need another drink, baby..’ says John. Paul goes to the phone. ‘Hello? Yeah, send us six single Scotches - no, make it doubles, yeah, doubles.’”
