Forty-nine years ago today (1964 for those not great at maths) The Beatles landed in New York at JFK Airport and were met by a hysterical mob of thousands of fans! This was their first time in the United States and it was clear just how much their influence had spread across the Atlantic Ocean.
Beatlemania is a phenomenon that grasped the world in the 1960s, with loyal and new supports staying true to this day.
It is pretty hard to decide which songs are my favorite but if I had to choose I would say that:
My favorite Beatles songs would have to be:
1.) Let It Be
2.) I Want To Hold Your Hand
3.) Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da
4.) Here Comes The Sun
5.) Come Together
6.) Hey Jude - Watch this adorable little boy do his version of this song.
7.) All You Need Is Love
8.) Eight Days A Week
9.) With A Little help From My Friends
10.)A Hard Day`s Night
If you`re a Beatles fan I would recommend that you watch the movie Across The Universe, have a look at the trailer.
I was highly skeptical but ended up really enjoying it. They use 33 Beatles songs and most of the covers are fantastic. The story does get quite psychedelic in the middle and I think they drew on that a little bit too much but apart from this, it is worth your time.
