Hello,can you please tell me why you and other Americans still like The Beatles so much? Best wishes, Lion King 12:03, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

- Who doesn't like the Beatles? Their music transcends culture and time. :) —simpatico hi 12:11, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
- Fans of The Stones! But I tend to agree with you. Be lucky, Lion King 13:05, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

- Ah, huge fan of the Stones, but huger fan of the Beatles. I was obsessed with them all through middle school, posters and cutouts of them wallpapered my room, I even convinced my dad to get a license plate that said "BEATLES." It was all I listened to and read about for the better part of three years. I grew out of that thankfully, but I'll be a fan for life. It's interesting how the British Invasion bands of been so enduring in America. The Beatles are still bestsellers, and McCartney and the Stones currently have the most sought after tours here. I suspect maybe a boomer nostalgia influence, but in my opinion, these bands will never die. :)
- By the way, and this'll be completely out of left field, but have you ever seen the UK TV series Spaced? I'm sure you have seeing as you live there, but I feel like I've found a hidden treasure here in America. It's AWESOME! When Shaun of the Dead came out here, it was one of the funniest things I'd ever seen, so I ended up buying a region-free DVD player just so I could order it from Amazon.co.uk. It was so worth it. Ha, watch you actually hate the show. Anyway, now that I've
talked your ear offtyped your screen to bits? I think I'll stop now. :p —simpatico hi 16:16, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
Wots with the Bollocks? Have I offended you in some way? Lion King 16:33, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
- No, I just think they're funny words, therefore I say them with abandon, whether in response to pleasant greeting or brutal insult. I think I feel a shite coming on... the word I mean, heh. —simpatico hi 16:38, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
- You are completely up the dancers! Lion King 16:42, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks! *logs "up the dancers" away for future use* —simpatico hi 16:43, 25 January
Got a lot of Cockneys where you live then? Lion King 17:04, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
- No, we have a lot of British stereotypes. ;) Have I offended you? If so I apologize... —simpatico hi 17:06, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
- Behave yerself, 'course not, I'm just winding you up! Lion King 17:17, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

- Know wot you mean, can't understand meself arf the time! Lion King 17:28, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
