        Real Time With Bill Maher Feb. 3, 2023
        “There was once a different musician named John Lennon who wrote a song called Revolution. And people who didn’t really listen to it thought it was a rah-rah call for Revolution. No, it was the opposite. The lyrics are ‘You say you want a revolution, well you know, we all want to change the world. But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao, you ain’t gonna make it with anyone anyhow.’ There’s a guy who understood how good intentions can turn into the insane arrogance of thinking your revolution is so f-ing awesome and your generation is so mind-bendingly improved that you have bequeathed the world with a new kind of human. You’re welcome.”

        (Right before all that he was talking about the banjo player from Mumford & Sons who tweeted that he liked a book that apparently wasn’t on the “approved list’” 🙄 and he had to delete the tweet, take time off from the band and issue an apology.) The 21st century version of “The Beatles are bigger than Jesus!”

          “Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans”, sang John Lennon in a song to this person he loved.

          The reigning champ says “Who is Yoko Ono?” 😂
          Then the young woman contestant (who ended up winning the game) says “Who is Sean Lennon?” 👍

                Brittany Spears said the same thing. She'd never heard of Yoko Ono🙄

                  That seems as unlikely as the rumor that Yoko never heard of The Beatles! 🙄

                    Last night on Steve Harvey's New... Little Big Shots show, there was an 8 year old Latino young man who said that The Beatles were his favorite band! He went on to sing Blackbird and play it on the guitar. It was beautiful!!

                    I love it when the kids love their grandparents music!!

                    This will blow your mind!

                    Saw this some years ago. Its just as good now, as it was back then😃👍

                      On Ozzy and Jack's World Detour they were traveling through Georgia and were about to go to an Elvis museum. Ozzy says "We're going to see Elvis' wart? It's like seeing John Lennon's f*&%ing skid mark!" Jack: "Which probably would go for a lot of money!" Side note: The women who owns all the Elvis stuff said that she was offered $1,000,000 for the wart! She didn't say how much she paid for it, just that it was "a lot of money."

                      So it's true! Ppl like Elvis warts and all 😆

                      Crikey!! Your getting as bad as me! Be careful it's a slippery slope!!!!

                        I’m confused…it was YOU who made the “So it’s true! etc.” comment! (in response to my Elvis’ $1,000,000 wart post) Scroll down to 18 days ago to see your response.

                          On Jeopardy 2/15/23, the contestants had to name the decade that 3 songs were from. For $200 was Love Me Do, I Say A Little Prayer, and one other song.

                          One contestant answered correctly:
                          What is the 1960s?

                                Ad on TV for +play by Verizon uses the Beatles song All Together Now. Sounds a lot like the original, but not sure, it may be a cover.

                                  On “Last Week Tonight With John Oliver” 4/2/23, he was talking about Solitary Confinement causing the prisoners to end up more violent and about what could be done to limit this without endangering the other prisoners. He was talking about choices of what to do and said:
                                  It’s like saying “For dinner tonight we can either get pizza or we could assassinate Paul McCartney. One of those choices makes sense, and the other one is absolutely horrible for everyone on earth!”

                                    On Entertainment Tonight 4/5/23, John Stamos who often performs with The Beach Boys, told this story: (his son is 5)
                                    My son, you know he’s into The Beach Boys. I’m driving the other day and he says “Dad, do you know The Beatles?”

                                      😂

                                      My ex heard the Beatles perform Come Together. She asked me why the Beatles played a Michael Jackson Song. 🙄

                                          Interesting point. John sang "nothing to get hung about", in reference to the fact that at that time ( or thereabouts) Britain still had the ( hanging) death penalty.

                                            Yeah, I heard that years later. When I was a kid I thought he meant “hung up” (not literally) like the expression of the day. Maybe you didn’t have that expression in the U.K.
