Lucy In the Sky With Diamonds

Okay, so hopefully everyone is familiar with the band called the Beatles, or at least heard the name somewhere before right? I had my blow from the so-called revolutionary music mifters 2 months ago when my friend gave me about 180 songs in my flashdisc, when I was too humble to decline and thought - hey why don't I give it a try, since I heard them somewhere before, though I clearly had no clue who they are or their impact on the musical history.

Anyway, as the weeks come an go I grew more obsessed, and knew more about them than I ever did before. These are in fact, talented young local lads from Liverpool who had successfully grip the hearts of music lovers al around the globe. They are responsible for the British Revolution in America (Yes, believe it or not the Crime Rates even dropped rapidly whenever they were on show!), for the foundation of rock and pop that we appreciate nowadays, and of course not to forget the mop-top hairstyle that exists to this day however they modify them to. You could find some of their popular songs covered by famous celebrities and bands of today!

Despite their widely celebreated endless list of musical contributions still significant in our age, they do have their bad sides. Their songs, though catchy and so full of power and easy to dance to, are not as innocent as they may seem. The Beatles's mind set is heavily influenced by addictive drugs, which might explain the catchy random phrases in the lyrics. For example, one of their famous tracks, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds - it talks of innocent love, but if you take the Capitals out of the sentence, what is it spelt? LSD is one of those drugs John regularly taken during his times in the studio, notice the trance-y elements of the song : the space sound effect, the imageries 'kaleidoscope', it sort of brings you to that imaginary world that keeps buoyant from facing reality. It's not just Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, it's other celebrated songs as well like I'm the Walrus - the ones that kids easily could sing a long and play a game of who-is-the-eggman.

Thus concludes it - I am not stating that the Beatles are complete druggies, they are not. They deserve equal respect because of their daring personality to show the world their true capabilities, and teach a good lesson to the world not to be afraid to put forward your craziest creations and experimentations, and who would complain that music would not be as it is today if it's not for them then? But I believe that they should not get away with over-the-top praises as they are not as 'godly' as some people who are completely unaware of this might think they are.

Though this does not change my love for their music at all, it does not stop me from appreciating their creations. They are still the best though, aren't they?
