Georgie.

ANd I <3 the Beatles, for some reason. I really have no idea why.

Eyespasm · « **Reply #4 on:** 19 Feb 2005, 18:14 »

I grew up on the Beatles.

My father played their songs while I was still in my crib.

Anyone who has listened to Ringo Rama cannot vote George. It simply is not done.

Love The Silver Beatles (Stones as well)

Have to go with George, but personallity-wise Ringo's funny as hell.

Aw crap - sorry was in some odd Debug mode and things got all mucked up.

Psiogen · « **Reply #11 on:** 19 Feb 2005, 23:35 »

Obviously George is the better songwriter, but Ringo's drumming is better than George's guitar playing, so I vote Ringo!

muffy · « **Reply #12 on:** 20 Feb 2005, 03:07 »

I second Catflea - for the number of times I watched my thomas the tank engine video, Ringo's music has been embedded in my brain pretty much since birth

seakerthehamster · « **Reply #13 on:** 20 Feb 2005, 04:49 »

George tryed realy hard with his guitar, that's why he never smile while playing it.

And Ringo's not even the best drummer in the Beatles.

Beside, have you ever seen nicer cheekbones the Georges.......

But he named his album Ringo Rama... RINGO. RAMA. Ack.

I haven't heard Ringo Rama. But even if I did. George owns my soul. :nod:

seakerthehamster · « **Reply #15 on:** 20 Feb 2005, 09:09 »

George all the way.

And it's way harder to play a guitar than drums, I should know...

The Wombat · « **Reply #16 on:** 20 Feb 2005, 10:23 »

Meh, George is the better songwriter, and being a lyricist myself that's what I go with in a player...so George...

Cpt.Fantastic · « **Reply #17 on:** 20 Feb 2005, 10:50 »

George.
Ringo can't play drums, Harrison was a very versatile guitar player and songwriter. Sorted.

They're the guys who did 'Mull of Kintyre' aren't they?

If so, FUCK YEAH.

fl0werp0wer · « **Reply #21 on:** 20 Feb 2005, 14:23 »

George Harrison. His songs fill me with love and joy, but then when his songs end, the love and joy is soon replaced with sadness and ridicule, and I run to my room to cry.

So there is a downside listening to his songs.

mee-kay-la · « **Reply #22 on:** 20 Feb 2005, 14:30 »

Wings were a good band. \m/

rynne · « **Reply #23 on:** 20 Feb 2005, 14:54 »

Ringo.

Watch any of the movies; Ringo's the funniest one.

Though I will not deny the coolness of "Got My Mind Set on You."

kilconey · « **Reply #24 on:** 20 Feb 2005, 16:40 »

ringo. george annoys me for some reason.
actually, i know the reason. 'piggies' is the reason george annoys me.

words cannot describe how much i hate 'piggies'. miserable hippie whining against rich people. boohoo.
plus they put it right after 'blackbird' on the white album, which just ruins everything.

i love ringo's drumming. i don't know how technically good it is (i'm a guitar player, myself) but it always seems to sound just right for the song.

I was told that the guitar player in Wings (Henry McCullough) was the same guy who did the rockin' intro (where you're "flying" over the Judean terrain) in the movie Jesus Christ Superstar. I'm trying to verify that now, actually, but I know longer have the soundtrack LP.

Although I'm not sure the extent of it - it is generally accepted that John or Paul would play drums on many of their songs when Ringo couldn't get it right.

I love some Wings - there are some great songs from Paul post-Beatles (and let's not forget John's solo work - ace). Wings definitely has some cheesy bits to em' but overall a good band. George's solo stuff I could never get too into as it was mainly very mellow and introspective.

George. And you can't do this:

I always had a problem with the Plastic Ono band. It begins in Yoko, and ends in Ono.

monkeymenofmars · « **Reply #30 on:** 20 Feb 2005, 20:47 »

Did you ever see that clip of them playing "Instant Karma" on Top of the Pops? They unplugged her microphone. XD

KharBevNor · « **Reply #31 on:** 20 Feb 2005, 20:48 »

Who did that? Because that person deserves some hugs.

I don't know how "generally accepted" this rumor is, but it isn't true. Paul did, however, play drums on three songs: "Back in the USSR" and "Dear Prudence", because Ringo had temporarily quit the band; and "The Ballad of John and Yoko", because he was off making a movie.

Ringo for me.

Obviously, seaker... maybe you should explain about the time machine.

(P.S. Way to steal my indieband obsession!)

seakerthehamster · « **Reply #36 on:** 25 Feb 2005, 13:38 »

Thank for brining that up Ophelia.

If anyone want to know about the time machine, they can pm me.

(I doubt you would, it rather disturbing)

And you're only saying Ringo to keep me happy... I know you too well.

george harrison. he may have a unibrow, but i like his attitude, and "ringorama" kind of disgusted me. not just the music, the name of the album

mee-kay-la: i saw the jimmy page picture and laughed. then i saw the use of the word thee and i laughed. then i saw the that 70's show quote and thought "who the fuck is this, micala!?". then i saw your screen name. *bows*

Sitars are soooo cool.

You know, The Beatles were using Eastern instraments, and influences 30 years before Bangra.

Ringo is funnier though.

But still, my heart will never be swayed from George.

(Does anyone else see the resemblance between John Lennon and ramdom homeless people?)

ColdSteelRain · « **Reply #47 on:** 08 Mar 2005, 14:10 »

There is a difference between funny and interesting.

Although I admit Ringo can be hilarious.
