Taxman, to preserve the radical conventionality of ER.
You just want a face off between TKN and ER in the final. I assure you, you will lose.
I'm skeptical that TKN will make it out of its side. But, no, I'm bowing to how pathbreaking ER is in the history of pop.
Fight back, goddammit!
:lol: I'll do no such thing. I'm also reassessing the similar brilliance of "Yesterday" as a result.

Huh. George gets arguably his best song date to lead off their most challenging album, and he doesn't play guitar. There's always something to generate grievance.
He played guitar on it, I believe, just not the solo. Paul "had an idea" he wanted to try out. I can't remember if George was pissed about it though. Probably.
For a guy who found peace in Eastern religions, George was also permanently in snit mode.
As someone who's been in a band with a Paul, I have endless sympathy for him.
George is, in terms of outlook and personality, my Beatle (even tho John's and Paul's work were both better on the whole). But he seemed to spend three-quarters of his time as a Beatle hating being a Beatle. As much an overbearing turd Paul could be, I can only imagine how exhausting having this dark cloud in the studio must have been.
Chicken and egg, I assume.

ER is the least best of this batch of great songs, but I can’t argue against the tide of an option with the radical notion of adding strings to a pop song.

Once again, proving that I don't understand a significant number of you all, "She Said She Said" is in the lead for eviction. I would have thought it was a slam dunk for the final two with "I'm Only Sleeping," but people clearly hate rock music a whole lot, so there you go.

I blame WWK for make me so dispirited so close to Christmas. :disshame:

I don't think either of us will have to worry about that option by next round. People are telling me they wished the band quit after Rubber Soul.

I will say, I’m looking forward to seeing exactly how the White Album will break down all communication between everyone on here.

"Good Night" will win its side and Heston will be gloating.
