The legacy lives on. A recent installment of Rock Band features Beatles songs and only Beatles songs. Not quite coincidentally, the entire catalog has been remastered and was rereleased on CD the same day. And Robert Zemeckis announced a 2012 remake of Yellow Submarine in Motion Capture animation! <shudder> Maybe, if it's Beatles-approved, it'll be okay...
In 1966 John Lennon gave an ill-thought-out comment that The Beatles, had gotten "more popular than Jesus." He promptly apologized for it, but it didn't help. It was taken out of context by the press, and many modern fans take comfort that John didn't think the Beatles were more important than Jesus; but if you were the kind of "thick-headed disciple" who would burn Beatles albums over this, then the context — his thoughts on the state of Christianity — would not be much comfort. Anyhow, in 2008, the Vatican admitted that he had a point.

my ideas exactly...

:rotfl: the vatican thought he was right :rotfl:

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band contained a few seconds of audio in the usually-empty runout groove of the record. On players that didn't have automatic pickup arm return (fairly common for cheaper players in the 1960s), this would loop forever, or until you got sick of it and turned it off.
wouldn't like it any OTHER way wouldn't like it any OTHER way wouldn't like it any OTHER way wouldn't like it any OTHER way wouldn't like it any OTHER way wouldn't like it any OTHER way wouldn't like it any OTHER way wouldn't like it any OTHER way wouldn't like it any OTHER- *HULK SMASH*
I hate being a nitpicker, but just for the sake of clarifying, it's "Never could see any OTHER way" looped to infinity and layered under a ton of other random noises, chatter and laughing. Still creepy as hell, though.


that seriously creeps me out. in 'A Day In The Life' 3 pianos are struck on the same jey, so the note lasts for a while, then it just goes quiet, then a high frequency noise then that comes on, and you can her john go tataaaaaa! while pauls doing that freaky high pitched thing, and you can hear nonsense in the background.

weiiird stuff.

John saying "Shoot Me" over and over again in "Come Together".
John singing "Happiness Is a Warm Gun" is kinda creepy too.
Even creepier - If you look in the booklet included in the Magical Mystery Tour album, there is a picture of John as he's leaving a small corner store. Just behind him is a sign that reads, "The best way to go is M. & D. Co". Obviously not actually related, but M.D.C. are the initials of Lennon's killer, Mark David Chapman. *shudder*

yes. that is scary. :|

in the second song, john goes,

happines is a warm yes it is... guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun! (baang baang shoot shoot)

at the beginning of come together, it sounds like john is going

hsgshsghsgshsghssghgshsgshsg!

but he is really saying 'shoot me'

but they covered it up with instruments, it comes up in the lyrics for rock band. :|
 
I just saw a "lose weight with these easy steps" adverts on a video website, and it was a picture of Vanessa Hudgens...
 
George Harrison was making snarky statements about his near-fatal stabbing about 24 hours after it happened. And according to his friend Eric Idle, as the bloodied Harrison was being taken away by EMTs in the immediate aftermath of the attack, he happened to catch sight of a groundskeeper he had hired only a week earlier. Reportedly George deadpanned, "So, how do you like the job so far?"

:rotfl:

Helter Skelter" is a different sort of Last Note Nightmare, as it finishes with Ringo throwing his drumsticks across the room and screaming "I GOT BLISTERS ON MY FINGERS!!" Considering they'd been jamming for 27 minutes straight, the poor guy must've been in agony.

that one is funny on rock band. its like, a 4 minute song, and it finishes off drastically, and ringo just suddenly screams 'I GOT BLISTERS ON MY FINGERS!' and there is a sound of drumsticks hitting the floor/wall

xD
 
Hmm, Total Drama Island restarted for reason. This could either mean they're only showing the episodes in order over the weekdays (I hope!) or they just screwed up.
 
Lindsay: Communal bathrooms? But I'm not Catholic.
Chris: Not communion, communal.
Gwen: It means we shower together... Idiot.
