Love You Too is pretty rubbish isn't it? By far the worst tune I think.

I do enjoy Yellow Submarine, it's a very important song to me primarily for nostalgic reasons. A lot can be said for its childlike simplicity and charm - it was the first ever pop song I remember at the age of 4 and no other song I can ever remember simply because of its ability to expand and provide wonder to a small innocent mind! I would sing it with my pre-school class and we would all love it. Let's just say we would have hated to sing a song like Tomorrow Never Knows at that age because it wouldn't relate to us (just imagine it)!

And when you think of it that way, what with our cognitive capabilities not being fully developed at such a young age, it's a very special song in that a tune like that communicates to yourself at a time of your life when our communication abilities and the ability to understand other forms of medium aren't that strong.

It's a song I rarely listen to but I do think it's a part of me as much as any of my favourite songs. To disregard it would be to disregard myself! But that is why The Beatles are by far and away the greatest band of all time. Their songs can communicate with a tiny child to an old person. Other favourite bands I listen to - U2, Oasis, The Smiths, Radiohead, etc etc do not even come remotely close to such a generation spanning appeal. You grow up with The Beatles and you grow into their other material - they are always a band with songs that provide a soundtrack to any part of your life, ranging from beginning to end. And it is why, quite rightly, none of them other bands can come close to The Beatles greatness.
