They're all pretty cool but I have to go with John.

Oooh, you're lucky. I didn't know there was a documentary along with the concert. I definitely intend to buy it. I've heard the concert, but never seen it.

i love them all but george is my all time fav, bigtime, ever since listening to my ma's concert for bangladesh lp box set as a wee one~ he is wonderful!!!~

The two dead ones are my favorites, which sucks, but they are easily the best 2, with John probably edging out George.

John.

Very difficult, this "who is your favorite Beatle?' thing. After all, George was my musical love since I was 10. I never paid John any attention because I always felt he was way over my head <--- no pun intended.

But then I discovered him. And I've never really looked back. It's so thrilling to discover a new artist in general, but when it's John Lennon and like everything is as close to magical as you can get...nothing beats it.

Paul is ok (though great in the Beatles). His solo music has some high points, but overall fairly average to below. Ringo is awesome! Such a personality, and his "Ringo" album is great. And George is wonderful...still love him dearly.

You could just say "I wanna hold your hand" and it would probably work just as well!

I dunno what the f*** you're hearing, but I hear no yelling.

Okay, I broke down and voted for Ringo. Someone had to do it. John is really my favorite, though. I really think he was an amazing human being who truly lived what he believed.

My vote goes to Paul.

You should've heard my mom yelling when I told her Daniel said that!

John John John! George was so great, too, but I've always loved John.

when I was a teenie bopper, it was Paul, but when I got older and began to listen to lyrics instead of just looking at faces, John really started to shine.
I still remember the day he died and I lit a memorial candle for him the following Sunday like Yoko asked (I HATE that woman)..........I always felt sorry for Julian because he had his dad's looks and some of his talent and yet faded into obscurity. Prob due to Yoko no doubt.......did I say I HATE that woman?

I totally understand what you're saying. All I can say is that his legacy follows her around everywhere, and she's had lots of time to think about things she should have done differently. He loved her so much, and although I think she loved him, she had a real damn weird way of showing it, more often than not.

I too felt so bad for Julian, and you can still see it hurts him terribly. I was in Julian's fan club back in 1984 ~ fan #510! I still have all of my membership stuff, including a personal letter from Julian. Did you hear about the new book his mother Cynthia is releasing soon? It's supposed to reveal even more about her and John's relationship, than her first book...Julian is taking orders for autographed copies on his website.

Mary, your post made me think of this Barenaked Ladies song so I couldn't help it.

"If there's someone you can live without, then do so.
And if there's someone you can just shove out, do so.

You can be my Yoko Ono
You can follow me wherever I go
Be my, be my, be my Yoko Ono.

Isn't it beautiful to see two people so much in love?
Barenaked as two virgins hand in hand and hand and hand in glove.
Now that I'm far away it doesn't seem to me to be such a pain.
To have you hanging off my ankle like some kind of ball and chain.

You can be my Yoko Ono
You can follow me wherever I go
Be my, be my, be my Yoko Ono.

Oh no, here we go, our life is just one big pun.
Oh no, here we go as Yoko sings
Aieee!

I know that when I say this
I may be stepping on pins and needles.
But I don't like all these people
slagging her for breaking up the Beatles.
(Don't blame it on Yokey!)"
I mean if I was John and you were Yoko,
I would gladly give up musical genius,
just to have you as my very own, personal Venus.
(Hit it!)

You can be my Yoko Ono
You can follow me wherever I go
Be my, be my, be my Yoko Ono."

Is it okay for me to say, I hate the Beatle's, Please don't hate me. Only like one song, "Hey Jude".

Oh ya, golddustwoman77, I love your sig picture!
