― local eire man (darraghmac), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 01:36 (ten years ago)

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

― local eire man (darraghmac), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 01:36 (ten years ago)

the T is biggest.

― Lee626, Wednesday, 25 February 2015 01:39 (ten years ago)

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

― fact checking cuz, Wednesday, 25 February 2015 01:43 (ten years ago)

I know but is it canon I felt not

― local eire man (darraghmac), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 01:44 (ten years ago)

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

― local eire man (darraghmac), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 01:45 (ten years ago)

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.

― fact checking cuz, Wednesday, 25 February 2015 01:48 (ten years ago)

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

― local eire man (darraghmac), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 01:56 (ten years ago)

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

― local eire man (darraghmac), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 01:57 (ten years ago)

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

― local eire man (darraghmac), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 01:59 (ten years ago)

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

― local eire man (darraghmac), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 02:01 (ten years ago)

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

― local eire man (darraghmac), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 02:02 (ten years ago)

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.

― fact checking cuz, Wednesday, 25 February 2015 02:04 (ten years ago)

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

― jmm, Wednesday, 25 February 2015 02:05 (ten years ago)

shit I didnt know that thanks

there rly isnt enough coverage of these guys huh

― local eire man (darraghmac), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 02:06 (ten years ago)

went with the F

― daed bod (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 02:06 (ten years ago)

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

― local eire man (darraghmac), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 02:07 (ten years ago)

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

― local eire man (darraghmac), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 02:09 (ten years ago)

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

― Montgomery Burns' Jazz (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 02:13 (ten years ago)

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

― jmm, Wednesday, 25 February 2015 02:57 (ten years ago)

The second "E" is the quiet one.

― Mark G, Wednesday, 25 February 2015 07:42 (ten years ago)

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

― Mark G, Wednesday, 25 February 2015 07:45 (ten years ago)

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

― bizarro gazzara, Wednesday, 25 February 2015 11:51 (ten years ago)

(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)

― bizarro gazzara, Wednesday, 25 February 2015 11:52 (ten years ago)

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

― Mark G, Wednesday, 25 February 2015 12:13 (ten years ago)

who was Les and what was their problem with him?

― Roberto Spiralli, Wednesday, 25 February 2015 13:25 (ten years ago)

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

― Mark G, Wednesday, 25 February 2015 13:49 (ten years ago)

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

― Treeship, Wednesday, 25 February 2015 14:00 (ten years ago)

Betles?

― Mark G, Wednesday, 25 February 2015 14:04 (ten years ago)

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

― jmm, Wednesday, 25 February 2015 14:13 (ten years ago)

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

― Stupid BUT Tall Guy (soref), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 14:15 (ten years ago)

And one called "Beat the Meetles"

― Mark G, Wednesday, 25 February 2015 14:22 (ten years ago)

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

― billstevejim, Wednesday, 25 February 2015 20:39 (ten years ago)

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."
