How come it is possible that rock and pop music lovers are not aware of Beatles. They were from Liverpool, England their band off course Beatles was formed in 1960. During their career, the group primarily consisted of John Lennon (rhythm guitar, vocals), Paul McCartney (bass guitar, vocals), George Harrison (lead guitar, vocals) and Ringo Starr (drums, vocals). To me and many of their lover, they were the trend setters that’s why they left behind the legacy, the beatles legacy though they dismantled some time latter but still they were and are the voice of century.
I use to think to what makes them so special and different from all. According to some music critics, it was their style, they way they clad and they way they sung. It made every one and anyone feel like associating with them. They were near to bone and flesh of their times and times to come. Yep; our times.
Apart from all this, the message they gave us was of love and peace. This makes them achieve the distinction. At the moment, when I am trying to pay them the tribute, I am not able to find appropriate words. This is the power of their voice and the impact the carry. Therefore, I would like to put it in the words of Derek Taylor who wrote in his book:
I have never seen anything like it. Nor heard any noise to approximate the ceaseless, frantic, hysterical scream which met the Beatles when they took the stage after what seemed a hundred years of earlier acts. All very good, all marking time, because no one had come for anything other than the Beatles…
Then the theatre went wild. First aid men and police – men in the stalls, women mainly in the balcony – taut and anxious, patrolled the aisles, one to every three rows.
Many girls fainted. Thirty were gently carried out, protesting in their hysteria, forlorn and wretched in an unrequited love for four lads who might have lived next door.
The stalls were like a nightmare March Fair. No one could remain seated. Clutching each other, hurling jelly babies at the stage, beating their brows, the youth of Britain’s second city surrendered themselves totally.”
And he is absolutely right. Lets take this song from them, ‘Don’t let me Down’. Well, I feel mesmerized. Look at the Lyrics:
Don’t let me down, don’t let me down.
Don’t let me down, don’t let me down.
Nobody ever loved me like she does,
Ooh she does, yeah she does.
And if somebody ever loved me like she does,
Ohh she does, yeah she does.
Don’t let me down, don’t let me down.
Don’t let me down, don’t let me down.
I’m in love for the first time.
Don’t you know it’s gonna last.
It’s a love that lasts forever,
It’s a love that has no past.
Don’t let me down, please, don’t let me down.
Don’t let me down, don’t let me down.
And from the first time that she really done me,
Ooh she done me, she done me good.
I guess nobody ever really done me,
Ooh she done me, she done me good.
Don’t let me down, don’t let me down.
Don’t let me down, don’t let me down.
I would say that, they were simply Splendid. Want to have a feel to what they were like. Here you go with their great work in following Video:

The way John Lennon was assasinated, also adds a tinge of popularity to Beatles name.
