So, I just watched Love and Mercy last night and it was so fucking good, I literally almost cried twice, it was so upsetting but also so perfectly made. The sound design was so unique and amazing and the studio recording sessions were so lively and realistic, and the two timelines overlapping was so unique and such an interesting way of storytelling. I can literally talk about this film for hours. I went into this knowing like absolute surface level stuff about Brian Wilson and the Beach Boys and only knowing their biggest hits, so this film was really such an amazing surprise. Please go watch it if you haven't yet because it's so good and so so worth it!

I'm thinking of doing a musician biopic ranking soon once I watch some more! If you all have any biopic recommendations of any musicians, please let me know so I can watch them!

shoutout to instrumental music that fills me with an indescribable ache and makes me want to cry

At first I didn't even know it was Elton since he wasn't wearing his glasses

It’s somehow more jarring to see Elton in black than Johnny in pink.

i hope all mutuals who i never talk to are having a good day

Y’ALL

someone forced a bot to read 1000 hours’ worth of beatles movie scripts and then it wrote a script of its own

i’m in tears pls

Omg guys, today my grandma (who is the only Beatles fan in my family, ugh) surprised me today and told me that she got us tickets to a Beatles tribute band concert in her city she lives in for an early (but actually late, since it's in January) Christmas present! We got third row seats so hell yeah. I know it's not really them and that it's just a tribute band but idk, it just feels so exciting since they are going to try and capture the boys musical magic (even if it's not as good as them, because they can never be). But I'm still excited nonetheless since people are still paying tribute to the boys like this, and that I will be able to see it with the only other Beatlemaniac in my family. I'll definitely post updates about it when it happens!

Hey all! So I've recently started working on a John fic and mapping out ideas for others. I'm really excited to post oneshots and imagines here soon, but I'm planning to post my full fics somewhere else.

So, I was wondering, for thoes of you who write the Beatles/Classic rock band fics:

* visibly shaking * I'm totally normal about this music artist

Hello please reblog this if you're okay with people sending you random asks to get to know you better

Hello, mutuals!

So, I've been listening to a bunch of music recently since I'm into multiple musicians/bands, and it got me wondering, what other artists do you all listen to? What other musician fandoms are you in? I thought it would be cool and fun to share our top 5 (or 10 if it's hard to choose, lol) artists we love to see who everyone likes since I'm new to Tumblr! :)

🎵 🎧 🎶 🎤 🎶 🎧 🎵

Here's mine (in no order):

The Beatles

John Lennon

Bob Dylan

Joan Baez

Johnny Cash

Elton John

John Frusciante (solo music)

Chris Cornell (both bands he is in + solo work)

Nirvana

Alice in Chains

Silverchair

Just found your tumblr and love it! Just wanted to say hi, and also hi five your gran as I feel the same about George when he sings his songs 😄

Aww, thank you so much! I just started this blog very recently so I am so glad to see that you enjoy it! 🥹 I'll high five her for you definitely. George's songs are always something to get excited about. This ask really made my day, you are so sweet!

The Beatles in A Hard Day's Night (1964)

Okay, so since I'm new to the Beatles fandom, I wanna get to know all of my new mutuals a bit more. Plus, I was curious to what the answer to this question would be!

Unfortunately, my grandma is the only person irl who shares my love of the Beatles, so we had a movie night and watched a Hard Day's Night and it was a blast! Here are some of my thoughts and comments on the film and some of my favorite parts/quotes (sorry if it's out of order):

• the opening is obviously iconic, I love how George and Ringo fall and almost get fucking trampled and we aren't even a minute in yet

• also the way John just laughs at them took me tf out, I love it

• "he's very c l e a n"

• Paul's grandfather was fucking helarious

• my grandma was singing all of the songs so loudly that I couldn't hear any of them 💀

• "Tell me, how did you find America?" "Turn left to Greenland"

• "What do you call that hairstyle you are wearing?" "Arthur"

• the entire part where George is mistaken for a teen model had me cackling

• "do not breathe on me, Adrian"

• "grotty" should be used more

• I love how the manager was basically just like a babysitter trying to take care of four out of control children

• I did not appreciate the Ringo's nose slander, his nose is beautiful

• Ringo's wack ass dancing was so amusing to me

• "Do I snore, John?" "Yeah, you're a window-rattler, son."

• John randomly oinking like a pig caught me off guard tbh

• Ringo being protective of his drums is literally me with my guitar

• "Put yer tongue away, it looks disgustin hangin out, all pink and naked."

• all of the songs were bangers, ofc

• all of the John in the bath scenes give me pure serotonin, I love his goofy ass

• me and my grandma sang a duet of And I Love Her when it came on and it was so fun and sweet

• I'm so sad that they didn't add "You Can't Do That" into the film since it's my favorite song on the album

• since I watched Nowhere Boy directly before this and almost cried, this line tore out my heart

• the scenes of Ringo with the kid were so random but also so wholesome

• the whole mistaken identity scene with John and the lady had me laughing and blushing, oh my God

• since my grandma is a George girl, she was simping hardcore during his song, it was so cute

• she literally yelled "I've got dibs on George!"

• my grandma also doesn't laugh when she thinks stuff is funny for some reason, so it was basically just me cackling in the otherwise silent living room the whole time

• she kept looking over to me throughout the film and finally said, "man, you're all over John the whole movie, huh?" 😭

• please, she can't talk, this women literally ran up to the TV and touched George's face 🤣

• okay, I know I'm going to sound delusional as fuck but just hear me out-

During this exact particular scene:

I swear to God, for a second I thought I could smell John through the screen. So, the whole room just smelled like nothing basically, but when the camera was on John straight ahead in this scene after he's talking to the lady in the hall, my senses just exploded basically. I suddenly smelled strong tobacco and cigarette smoke, along with a clean sweet smell and citrus. It's like when someone walks by you with a lot of cologne or something and you are hit by it? It was like that with the sudden angle change when it went to this shot of John. It was the weirdest shit. I know it sounds dramatic and like I'm making it up, but weirdly enough it's happened to both me and another family member a few times with other movies, but idk why lol. Then when John went up the stairs it faded away and didn't come back. No one smokes in their house either and there was no smell like any of that in the room before, so it was really weird but also oddly comforting. Anyways, I'm probably just going insaine.

So I ended up watching a Hard Days Night, Nowhere Boy (which I've already seen) and Backbeat all in the same day since I went full Beatles binge mode yesterday and it was amazing! Needless to say, John is rotting my brain, as he should. I'll post my thoughts on a Hard Day's Night in the next post!

So I bought A Hard Days Night yesterday, which I've never seen before and imma watch it later today, I'M SO FUCKING EXCITED!!!!

Anyone: Hey (asks about a special interest of mine)? Me: Becomes an unskippable cutscene

john lennon’s voice in ‘twist & shout’ is so hot

Listening to my favorite artists praising and gushing over my other favorite artists is one of my favorite things

The absolute iron grip that the Beatles have on me right now is insaine. Like, literally nothing else exists in the world right now to me except for Macca, Johnny, Georgie and Ringo
