Pataphysical Lyrical Beatles Trivia (For Scarlett & All)
-
Thought I'd create a new thread for these Beatles lyrical and album art trivia questions. They're fun to learn from and often challenging. So I'll kick it off: Paul has a song called "Road" on his new album "New." So what songs sung by the Beatles contain the word road, street, avenue etc. There are several and album titles are OK too
-
Why Don't We Do It In The Road. "Ask a policeman on the street, there's so many there to meet." Blue Jay Way Penny Lane
-
The Long and Winding Road [gotta think harder for the others...]
-
Taxman - If you drive a car I'll tax the street
-
Abbey Road
-
Does "bend" count as a reference to a street/road? Who's that coming round that bend? - Big Barn Bed
-
Got to Get You Into My Life I was alone, I took a ride I didn't know what I would find there Another road where maybe I could see another kind of mind there
-
Speed along the highway - Backseat of my Car

I think this is mostly Beatles. But then again what do I know.

Oh... you are right.
We are under Yesterday. I just got carried away singing away in my head... will get myself back to the 60s... -
How about "And she'll never walk down Lime Street any more" and of course Abbey Road!
