Still Talking About the Beatles

“... Feeling too soft, where my hard side at? Came too far to be cute about it I don't wanna do any complaining But we did SNL with no music out yet. Feeling too soft, where my hard side at? Came too far to be cute about it I don't wanna do any complaining But ask me how it was to get pimp-slapped by Paul McCartney, yeah.”

"…The Beatles and The Stones Sucked the marrow out of bone Put the V in Vietnam The Beatles and The Stones Made it good to be alone To be alone…"

"…Saturday sinners Sunday morning at the feet of the Father They need somethin’ to rely on, we get high on all types of drug When, all you really need is love To get by.. just to get by Just to get by, just to get by Parents sing like John Lennon, "Imagine all the people watch" We rock like Paul McCartney from now until the last Beatle drop…"

"… You make me laugh Give me your autograph Can I ride with you in your B.M.W ? You can sail with me in my yellow submarine…"

Matthew: I sometimes wish I could just crawl up with a girl. Just hold each other. Like that picture of John Lennon & Yoko Ono.

“100 Girls” (2000) [movie]

"…Every jam we play,  we break two needles There's three of us but we're not the Beatles…“

[Rob’s "Top 5: side one, track one": Nirvana on top, Massive Attack as 5th] Barry: Oh, kind of a new record… very nice, Rob. A sly declaration of new classic status slipped into a list of old safe ones. Very pussy! Could you be any more obvious, ah Rob? How about – oh, I don't know – the Beatles? How about fucking… fucking Beethoven?

“High Fidelity” movie poster is an homage to the A Hard Day's Night album cover:

Jonah: Dad, this is amazing. If you play this backwards, it says "Paul is dead". Sam: I know. Jonah: How do you know?

Music shop scenes:

Tom Hansen: Please, be serious. Summer Finn: I'm being totally serious. Tom: Stop joking around. Summer: No, I'm not joking around. Tom: Octopus's Garden? Summer: Yes, Octopus's Garden is the best Beatles song ever recorded. Tom: Why won't you say Piggies? Summer: Come on, I love Ringo Starr. Tom: Nobody loves Ringo Starr. Summer: That's what I love about him.

Tom is trying to make Summer smile with Ringo's Stop and Smell the Roses LP

Summer's apartment scene

Wedding scene

(Counting each other’s faults) Summer: …and when you wake up, your hair – it sticks up like that. It's ridiculous. Tom: You're ridiculous. Your favorite Beatle is Ringo. Summer: Damn right. Ring is the best!

Julius Levinson: 'All you need is love'. John Lennon. Smart man. Shot in the back, very sad.

Rex: This is Wade Boggs autographed bat. I just barely outbid Phil Donoghue for that at auction. John Bennett: Wow, cool. Rex: Yeah…cool. These boxing gloves worn by Joe Lewis in his first fight; [Shows a framed picture on the wall] This is art, get it?; These were John Lennon's glasses, they're worth like a million dollars; That's me and Tom Scarritt; Ohh…check this out, that's Lance Armstrong's nut. I had it freeze-dried and bronzed.

“Ted” (2012) [Movie]

Guy with earphones singing to himself on the tube: ~She's dragged me to the floor/Just like she did before/And I can't take it no more…~ James: Oh-oh, Beatles lyrics, eh? (Checks CD) 'Elastic Thrombosis'. They're guilty of lyric poaching. James (to Helen): They're Beatles lyrics, aren't they? Helen: I don't know. Sorry. James: Of course you do know. Everybody's born knowing all the Beatles lyrics instinctively. They're passed into the fetus subconsciously along with all the amniotic stuff. In fact, they should be called "The Fetals". Not a fan, clearly.
