look thats fair and well argued but the the in the Beatles is actually a cover version of the the in the drifters that they'd heard on pirate radio
so its clearly not eligible sorry

voted A I dont think Ringo's ever been as tight and in control as when he pronounces the A in beatles
― local eire man (darraghmac), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 01:57 (nine years ago) link
course it had to be written for him by Lennon/McCartney but the kids fucking loved it. beAtles, he'd say and they'd love it

McCartney only admitted in 87 that he'd never understood the misspelling of beetles
― local eire man (darraghmac), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 02:01 (nine years ago) link
Harrison OTOH went to the grave not knowing it wasn't beetles
― local eire man (darraghmac), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 02:02 (nine years ago) link
voted A
you do know the A was a cover of the U in louvin brothers, right? just 'cause they changed the specifics of the letter doesn't make it original.

The first E is amazing, second is a shameless rehash.

shit I didnt know that thanks

― local eire man (darraghmac), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 02:06 (nine years ago) link
went with the F
― daed bod (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 02:06 (nine years ago) link
I think that the second e has a certain something but we'll never know after what barry white did to it in production
― local eire man (darraghmac), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 02:07 (nine years ago) link
did u know, NV, that George invented the F by haply accident when he played an E too close to a stationery cupboard and some falling tippex cancelled the bottom line

Really wish they'd release "Carnival of P."

The symmetrical stuff going on in T is pretty remarkable. What isn't often noticed is that it's also the exact middle letter.
― jmm, Wednesday, 25 February 2015 02:57 (nine years ago) link
The second "E" is the quiet one.
― Mark G, Wednesday, 25 February 2015 07:42 (nine years ago) link
The A was a late change when the previous E got dropped after Hemburg.

(voted 't' btw because without it they'd be the beales which is a bit too eastenders for a bunch of loveable lads from liverpool)
― bizarro gazzara, Wednesday, 25 February 2015 11:52 (nine years ago) link
Which means that the "S" is the least important, because without it they would still be a Beatle.

He was too good, they decided he was the one that needed defeating.

"A" is the one that makes the name a stupid portmanteau band name rather than just another stupid animal band name. voted "A"
