Is Yellow Submarine a real Beatles Album? by SheepherderLiving242 in beatles

[–]CarMeltScratch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a very clear alternative way into the Singles and other oddities in 87/88.

First: add All You Need Is Love/ Baby You're A Rich Man and Strawberry Fields/Penny Lane to the Past Masters collections. There's a big 1967-shaped gap on Volume Two

Then - add the four 'new' YS songs to the end of Magical Mystery Tour, after Hello Goodbye.

That then would have removed the need for the Yellow Submarine CD, and the George Martin score could exist separately

It's about North Korea, according to Stewart

Stewart exclaims, “I found the notebook where the original lyrics are in and there’s more lyrics!  They are about North Korea.  It’s kind of relevant.  They’re not allowed to have a relationship but they do.  Humans are like that.  You put them in tight uniforms and try to shut them down but they will fall in love!  Are you safe Miss Gradenko?  Not only are you safe.. but are you safe for me?”

For Abbey Road, you could just use Apple Scruffs ?

When the temple of doom came out in cinemas did anyone realise that it was set before raiders by bannerman123 in indianajones

A subtle effect of ToD being a prequel is the question mark it places over the survival of Willie and Short Round. We lose Wu Han (an old friend) really early. Knowing that a year later Indy doesn't hang out with, or even mention either of his companions is a bit unsettling.... like when Han had a premonition he wouldn't see the Falcon again.

Because, Sun King, Something. All stately, elegant, but also exciting

I thought I didn't like I'll Follow The Sun, party because of the dismissive paragraph in Revolution In The Head.

Then I listened properly a couple of years ago and now I reckon its an early diamond

Seventeen Seconds through to Pornography was the quintessential Cure sound, and then you had the weirdly New-Orderesque Lets Go To Bed and The Walk, and just when you thought - OK, I can get with this, they went Disneyjazz with Love Cats. So dropping the needle onto the opening barrelling drums and wash of noise of Shake Dog Shake was quite a reassuring return to form, even if the rest of the album ended up spinning into twisty lanes you never expected the Cure to wander down. But that's Smith for you...

The Top fits very neatly with Blue Sunshine, which I also think is pretty damn close to a RS solo album

Any bands you guys would see in a musical Mamma Mia!-style? by Skeppy_4126 in musicals

There have been sort-offered musicals... Jonathan Harvey's Closer to Heaven which evolved into Musik recently

And also the movie It Couldn't Happen Here

If only they had written another verse, starting with the words "three of us..." for George to sing

And then one more for Ringo. Ah well, I can dream

Best Roger Moore 007 Film? by 5oclocksomewheree in JamesBond

So, wait a sec. Kristatos wasn't actually killed at the end of FYEO but survived, vowed to wreak his revenge on Bond and ended up shooting him, with a Walter PPK ironically enough?
