According to the news "Their aim is to select the 'most precious and loved' music from all around the world.".This looks like very striking. I loved it!

This is not the first time we've seen 'Imagine' featured at an Opening Ceremony of an Olympic Games

Right.  It has almost become a theme song for the Olympics.  It was cool to see the athletes sway back and forth, tear up a bit and hug each other during its playing.  That "drone world thing" during all that was incredible!!!

So what were the songs the FB guy was saying?

His original post talked about Paul & George arguing about Hey Jude during the Let It Be sessions. No mention of Two of Us. I said his post was misleading and that Hey Jude argument was during White Album sessions .

You're right,that was misleading. There was no argument about Hey Jude during the Let it Be sessions although during a disagreement on how to arrange and rehease Two of Us, Paul did remind George of the Hey Jude disagreement the previous July,a reminder that George wasn't too happy about.

Correct, thank you!

What could there possibly have been to argue about on "Two Of Us?"  Don't recall from the film what George may have wanted to do on that song.  He should have reminded Paul that it was his (George's) idea  to slow down the part of "We Can Work It Out"...almost to a waltz....where they sing....so I will ask you once again. Great idea which makes the song a bit more distinctive and catchy.

God only knows, but the thread has gone quiet, thankfully!

I can't believe that gross salute to war, "The Ballad of the Green Berets," was no. 1 for five weeks. Ick.

At least War by Edwin Starr went to #1 in the U.S.

I just ordered some of the Paul stamps on EBay. One set was postmarked and shipped from England. Not sure when I’m going to get there, so I ordered them online, got 3 different sets!

Last time I talked to the Royal Mail about my missing PM Bundle was July 7th. On the 21st received an email from them saying it had been "despatched." ("mailed"to us Yanks!) Took 2 WEEKS to get it out?! It better arrive in less than 10 days!

(the other part did)

P.S. Am on phone with Delta cancelling plane tickets and getting  Delta Sky Miles + taxes $ refunded on Amex. Only had to stay on hold 2.5 hours, then she transferred me eventually (went almost directly through) to a different customer service rep. Have been on the line for over 1/2 hour total now. He's trying to figure out how to just refund me a $46.60 credit voucher which was initially supposed to be refunded on my Amex! (long story) Points (Sky Miles) are already back in my account (checked delta.com)  but credit of taxes  on this flight ($338.90 for the 2 tickets) has not gone through yet.

Next will easily cancel hotels in London and Liverpool online (free cancellation)

I know, what a hassle. On the bright side, the Stones released their Fall US tour rescheduled dates today from last summer!

I even ended up calling the Liverpool hotel at 4am (9am their time!) 😂 The 2 hotels will have Aug. 2022 available to reserve in about a week or less. will have to wait until Oct. to rebook Delta tickets.

On my bright side, now Leslie & I can go to Abbey Road On The River Sept. 2-5, 2021!

I've always loved this album.

^ In the song, Ringo's dog Tiger is also mentioned, as well as John's cat Mimi. John may have had a dog named Bernard too.

Here's another one of George's crashes I never heard about (minor compared to the other one!)

That photo is printed backwards. Should be:

I was a huge Tom Jones fan in the '60s and '70s, but I like Paul & The Beatles' version better. (plus he messes up and sings "what" instead of "don't")

Uh... I don't think it's working. I can't see anything. 🙂

That's weird. I posted an avatar of myself. I guess it disappeared after 30 minutes like other things do on here!

I have real short brown hair and brown eyes. Here I am in Sept. 1978 (age 23) with Mike Love of The Beach Boys.

Wow! You're beautiful. 🙂
I don't know why. But I felt it.

Thank you! We're really off topic here! Sorry everyone!

If I get to Liverpool and the J.L. Airport in August, I will take a lot of photos!

Didn't even look at these 50 items, but I bet most of us know them already!
