Wow. There is a Beatles song I had never heard before.
"All that the South has ever desired was that the Union, as established by our forefathers, should be preserved, and that the government, as originally organized, should be administered in purity and truth." – Robert E. Lee

as a kid in England, I've actually got to meet the Beatles... just after they got back from their tour of the USA...
our class was doing a field trip to the Tower of London, and for once the chapel was blocked off, so me and my best friend ( the Wing Commander's son) sneaked off from the group to see what was going on back there, in the Chapel..
Low and behold, they were filming something with the Beatles back there...
some security guy saw us and yelled at us, and a bunch of security came running to chase us out of there...it caught the attention of both Paul and John Lennon...
as soon as we opened our mouths, the security guard was yelling "it figures a bunch of bloody Yanks...can't you little bastards read???"
Paul comes over and the rest of the band followed, they asked where we lived, where we were from... told us how they had just toured 'America' and they loved it... and the reception they got..
They shook our hands and told us to buy their records and tell our friends..... then they were ushered off, and the security guards escorted us out, and shoved us out the door...
We run back to the group, the teacher scolds us for disappearing...we tell everyone we just met the Beatles, which was greeted with "sure ya did".....
after the Stones came out in early 65, I wasn't really much of a fan of theirs ever since....
but it was a thrill for a couple of 12 year olds in 1964...

If you were born in the early 50's you like the Beatles.

FWIW "Eleanor Rigsby" was reportedly Bob Marley's favorite Beatles song, changed the direction of his music in fact.
My own favorite, the last, I about wore that 45 out....
