I've just discovered this band, don't know if you've heard about it, you probably have as I am always late: the Beatles. They're cool, check them out, really. I know we're all a bit tired of this British wave that just keeps coming and coming, but give them a chance, don't be prejudiced and fooled by the fact that their name starts with "the", it's not another one of those The Plurals band, they don't sound like everybody else. It's the other way around actually.
No, ok. I have been listening to them when I was little. But they have been drowned in all the Tina Turners, and Michael Jacksons, and Adriano Celentanos, and Princes, and freaking Osmonds. "Not that there's anything wrong with them."
Later on I ignored them because all the drunk disgusting hippie chicks were screaming Hippy Hippy Shake and Ob-la-di Ob-la-da through bubbles of saliva right in my face. Goddamn hippies.
But then I saw the film "Across the universe" and said hey, wait a minute. But I left it at that.
Nowadays, the Beatles seem the only suitable music for me.
I just saw "Yellow Submarine" last night and I was floored. I'm sure I'd seen it as a kid, but that memory was also drowned in traumas. It's a beautiful film. The graphics, the colors (hippie colors), the songs, the lines, the humor, the wit, the story (nothing new, but always wonderful) were all amazing. It felt good. It felt right. Now there's nothing in my ipod but the B's.
p.s. I am truly ashamed to admit I had no idea Paul had such an immense voice in him. The lad does opera, man!

ONLY A NORTHERN SONG
If you're listening to this song
You may think the chords are going wrong
But they're not
He just wrote it like that
When you're listening late at night
You may think the band are not quite right
But they are, They just play it like that
It doesn't really matter what chords I play
What words I say or time of day it is
As it's only a Northern song.
It doesn't really matter what clothes I wear
Or how I fare or if my hair is brown
When it's only a Northern song.
If you think the harmony
Is a little dark and out of key
You're correct, Is nobody there
and I told you is no one there
If you're listening to this song
You may think the chords are going wrong
But they're not
