"The Beatles" need no introduction. They have been recognized by many critics and social historians as the most popular and influential music group of the 20th century, probably the greatest band ever.
More than just the leaders of a movement in rock music known as the British Invasion, the Beatles were the main force behind changing the concept of popular music stars from simple entertainers to social and spiritual gurus. While the group remained hugely popular throughout the decade, the Beatles gradually transformed from fresh-faced boys singing songs about love into complex young men writing about a world full of political and social upheaval. For many critics and music fans the group reflected the turmoil and change that gripped society during the 1960s.

The Beatles comprise:
- John Lennon
- Paul McCartney
- George Harrison
- Ringo Starr


Let's pay tribute to this greatest band by compiling some of the greatest numbers from them. Let me do the first honor by including one of my favorite numbers "REAL LOVE"

Something

I love this song...this is so good, both tunes and lyrics... Check out the video. It features all the wives of the Beatles. George Harrison and Ringo Star later got divorced though.



LYRICS:
=====

Something in the way she moves,
Attracts me like no other lover.
Something in the way she woos me.
I don't wanna leave her now,
You know I believe, and how.

Somewhere in her smile she knows,
That I don't need no other lover.
Something in her style that shows me.
I don't wanna leave her now,
You know I believe and how.

You're asking me will my love grow,
I don't know, I don't know.
You stick around now, it may show,
I don't know, I don't know.

Something in the way she knows,
And all I have to do is think of her.
Something in the things she shows me.
I don't wanna leave her now.
You know I believe and how.


While My Guitar Gently Weeps


I love this song to death...The lyrics is so good. The best Beatles song for me.

This video was shot in one of the concerts held in 1987. It features George Harrison, Ringo Star, Eric Clapton and Elton John.


This video is from the concert held in 2004 after the death of George Harrison and it features Eric Clapton and Paul McCartney.


LYRICS:
=====

I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at the floor and I see it need sweeping
Still my guitar gently weeps

I don't know why nobody told you
how to unfold you love
I don't know how someone controlled you
they bought and sold you

I look at the world and I notice it's turning
While my guitar gently weeps
With every mistake we must surely be learning
Still my guitar gently weeps

I don't know how you were diverted
you were perverted too
I don't know how you were inverted
no one alerted you

I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at you all
Still my guitar gently weeps

Oh, oh, oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
yeah yeah yeah yeah
