Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

Lee's involvment with 'All you need is love' and all this anniversary talk of The Beatles at the moment got me thinking-

Which Beatles song would you absolutely love to hear Lee cover?

I could talk all day on this but a good one for me would be Hey Jude or Day in the life. I think Hey Jude would be quite special

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

Oooo that's a hard one, there are so many.
But one would have to be 'And I Love Her', this is one of my favourites and I would love to hear Lee sing this!!

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

Ooh, good thread idea, Coof!

For me, it's "The Long and Winding Road". Of course, the visual of him showing up at my door doesn't hurt either lol.

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

Yesterday would be a good one :)

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

I love this simple little song: "If I Fell In Love With You" :

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

Let it be

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

"Something"

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

Oh yes Ringer.
it would be Yesterday for me.

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

It would have to be 'Twist & Shout', 'Yesterday' or 'In My Life':-

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

So many to choose from but would love to see and hear Lee sing 'Love me do' strumming his guitar yay!

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

That was my second choice Brenda.
I tend to prefer the earlier stuff when they were still having fun, not so keen on the later stuff. I know most people will disagree with me but 'Hey Jude' really annoys me.

I love the way Paul sings 'Till There was You' but that can't really be classed as a Beatles song can it?

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

Oh Marg, I absolutely adore "Till There Was You" - I'm sure you can count it!!! He was so young and vulnerable sounding on it, wasn't he. BTW next Thursday's holiday is agreed at last. Just a couple more hurdles!!!

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

That's brilliant, keeping my fingers crossed!!!!!

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

Yesterday for me. Think he could really act it.

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

Come together for a bit of sex appeal. Could I imagine him doing it? I don't know..but I'd like to hear him have a go!

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

I also agree with the "Yesterday" choice and think he would give a fabulous performance acting it out. It's what he does best afterall.

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

Karen, I really like Love me do. So simple yet brilliant.

All my loving is another favourite.....

Oh crumbs, would there be a bad one?!

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

To just clarify-

I am talking about loving hearing him singing the song not......the other......the way I mention the 'S' word and then follow with 'doing it' and 'hearing him' you get my drift......oh heck....

and I shouldn't have phrased the first bit like that- come together for a bit of sex appeal......I am not making mischief, really! I am a good person....I am here to talk about the music of The Beatles.....crikes

I shall rephrase that and say Lee would be quite sexy singing come together! THERE!

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

Would the John Lennon "Woman" qualify. I know it was post beatles but its stll A beatle

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

I am saying nothing else ever again Mouse.

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

You know that's impossible, Coofy!

You're loved just the way you are!

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

I understood loud and clear Coofy, no need to clarify

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

Just had another though Lee said in an interview he prefered the Rolling Stones to the Beatles

Myself I would like to hear him do a cover of some of Elvis' romatic ballads

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!



Agree with the biggies like Yesterday, Let it be, Hey Jude.

also

While my Guitar Gently Weeps... just guitar accompaniment.

or

Ob-la-di-ob-la-da... reckon he'd have fun with that!!

There are so many to choose from

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

I DIDN'T MEAN IT THOUGH!!!! (well not this time!)

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

That's what makes it all the more funny!

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

how about the sunny, sunshiney, poppy, catchy, infectious number that is Here comes the sun!

Can you tell I like it?!

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

I think we know you like it Coof!

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

LOL, Coofy! I think you've dug a deep enough hole at this point, hahaha! But that's a BeeGee's song, isn't it, oh, no that's How Deep is Your Love!

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

Coof are you still Beetroot?!

If we're slipping into Elvis mode.... there's a video of the '68 Comeback Special - check out the leathers!

Lee could sing anything by anyone wearing those, but actually Elv did sing 'If I Can Dream' in that outfit, so I'd love Lee to sing the full length version

Also saw one of my fav rock stars sing Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Band and that was very errr, how does Coofy say now errrrrr 'Appealing', without the 'S' word of course!

Rock it down in leathers I say, bring on the Stones, fingers crossed its a Stones number at RAH!

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

Ooooohhh, this Beatles fan loves this thread!!!

I have my favorite Beatles songs, with Hey Jude topping the list, but they are not the ones I think I'd like Lee to do.

He'd really show emotion singing Yesterday.

But I think my top 3 choices for Lee would be Mother Nature's Son, Here, There & Everywhere
and For No One. Oh, he'd sound so dreamy singing those!

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

'A Taste of Honey'
Very short and very sweet I can imagine Lee singing that and looking so cute .

A taste of honey
Tasting much sweeter than wine
Do dut don du, do dut don du

I dream of your first kiss and then
I feel upon my lips again
A taste of honey
A taste of honey
Tasting much sweeter than wine
Do dut don du, do dut don du

I will return, yes I will return
I'll come back for the honey, and you
Do dut don du, to dut don du

Yours was the kiss that awoke my heart
There lingers still though we're far apart
A taste of honey
A taste of honey
Tasting much sweeter than wine
Do dut don du, do dut don du

I will return, yes I will return
I'll come back, I'll come back
For the honey, for the honey
And you


Or 'Imagine'......

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

I would choose
Here, there & Everywhere

For no one
and
If I fell

but then I am a bit of an old softie!!
Was a huge Paul M fan in my youth.

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

Me too Cassie, wasn't he gorgeous back then!!

CL, I think 'A Taste of Honey' comes in the same category as 'Till their was You'. The beatles recorded the song but it wasn't one of their compositions. But, as they recorded the songs, I think we can still include them as Beatles' songs, don't you?

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

Thanks MargW - I had no idea - just liked the song.
I do agree they should be included - as long as Coofy agrees of course

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

yeah whatever! I'm just steering clear of this thread!

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

Awwww! Coofy - no need to 'steer clear' - it's your thread after all.

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

I am not much of a Beatles fan, but I do like 'And I Love Her' Lee would do quite well with it.

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

Ooh this is great, the Beatles were My time!! I love Yesterday, always have as it is so meaningful and I think Lee would do it true justice.

All the others sound FAB!!!
But for fun I'd like him to sing Help!! I remember going to see that at the Movies.

Re: Beatles Fan? now here's a question!

Yesterday.
