McCartney's Post Beatles work better than Lennon's
If you listen without prejudice it is clear that Lennon never came close to writing anything as musically or lyrically interesting as "Live and Let Die", "Band on the run", "Jet", or even "Pipes of Peace".

It's a piece of piss to be cowiz, but it's not cowiz to be a piece of piss. Or something like that.

Let's not overlook the solo career of That Other Beatle Who Wasn't John, Paul, or Ringo.
Who needs a signature anyway?

Re: McCartney's Post Beatles work better than Lennon's
Lennon's songs have, in scientific tests, been proven to be at least 3 million times better than Macca's. I think we all know this to be true. Now shut up you tosh spouting pea brain. thankyou

Re: McCartney's Post Beatles work better than Lennon's
I think Lennon's songs are too pouncy and unrealistic. The world will always suck as much as he'd like to dream otherwise.

I have to say that although this is all very nice, lyrically, the tune's a bag of wank.

Pouncy? They pounce on people? I don't understand your critical analysis.Jynx wrote:I think Lennon's songs are too pouncy and unrealistic. The world will always suck as much as he'd like to dream otherwise.

Face it, The Beatles, Lennon, McCarthy, d'other two, they were always wank. They were the type of band your mother would approve of. Today's equivalent is Justin Bieber. Give me The Who or The Stones any day over that sissy, tea and scones nonsense.

Re: McCartney's Post Beatles work better than Lennon's
Much as I like Macca post-Beatles, I think this evidence speaks for itself:
McCartney wrote great pop songs (most of the time anyway). Lennon just wrote great songs that went far beyond the confines of popular music. McCartney solo was never really as inventive as he was when working with Lennon ...

The Beatles might have been OK with a bassist and a drummer
Outside the ordered universe is that amorphous blight of nethermost confusion which blasphemes and bubbles at the center of all infinity—the boundless daemon sultan Azathoth, whose name no lips dare speak aloud, and who gnaws hungrily in inconceivable, unlighted chambers beyond time and space amidst the muffled, maddening beating of vile drums and the thin monotonous whine of accursed flutes.
