BEATLES SURVEY!!!!!
Favorite Beatle: Okay, I have to go with John on this, just because I feel I have the most in common with him. Plus, I love this quote from him: "My defenses were so great. The cocky rock and roll hero who knows all the answers was actually a terrified guy who didn’t know how to cry. Simple."
Favorite Beatles song: Oh, Jesus . . . This is a loaded one. Okay, let’s see. There’s a Place, Please, Please Me, I’ll Get You, Thank You, Girl, Help!, Hard Day’s Night, You’ve Got To Hide Your Love Away, Paperback Writer, We Can Work It Out, Eleanor Rigby, Don’t Bother Me, Octopus’s Garden, Don’t Pass Me By . . . You get the idea.
Least Favorite Beatles song: Michelle, Come Together, and Oh! Darling.
Favorite Beatle Period: Probably them from around the time of Help!
Favorite Beatle Album: Um . . . I guess Sgt. Pepper?
Favorite Post-Beatle Album: God . . . Um . . . Probably that one of Paul’s. All The Best. And Ringo’s Time Takes Time CD.
Favorite Beatle Movie: Help! and Hard Day’s Night.
Favorite Beatle Lyric/Quote: That John one from above, and also when he was interviewed and asked about advice for teenagers, he said, "Don’t get pimples." Lyric, on the other hand . . . I’ll get back to you.
Favorite Beatle Wife: Linda!!!
Favorite Beatle Child: Um . . . I guess Julian?
Favorite 5th Beatle: George Martin!!!
What was your reaction to John’s death? I was minus a year and a half old, but I would have cried like nothing else. I find it funny. I actually have a personal stake against Chapman for killing John. My dad was under contact for a comic company in New York, and he had actually been scheduled to meet John and Yoko, and interview them. But the interview was set for January of ’81!!
What about George? God, I must have cried for an hour . . .
Favorite thing about the Beatles: The fact that they were human.
Favorite Memory of the Beatles: When I went to Ringo’s concert at the Arts Center on June 3rd, 1997.
Sexiest Beatle: Oh, geez . . . Okay, I’ve gotta say John.
Reason for Being a Beatles Fan? They’re just that damn good. Plus, when you hear the intro to Hard Day’s Night that many times in one day, you’re either going to hate them for life, or get addicted. Guess which one happened to me?
On A Scale Of One To Ten, How Do You Rate Your Beatle Fan-ness: A perfect 10. Okay, probably an eight at this point, because I’m not as into them as I was, but I was once a perfect ten.
–Notes–
Jeez, you were really grilling me. I’m not an expert, remember I gave myself a 3? I remember Pete Best. It was actually on the edge of my tongue but I didn’t want to say it and risk someone saying "He was from the Beach Boys you idiot!" because I wasn’t 100% sure. [DorkAlert]

That would’ve been great to actually meet John and Yoko. I’m not a fan of Come Together either. [DorkAlert]
