Hi folks

Just wondering about this recently chatting to a fellow fan.
The Beatles i suppose have helped people through difficult times &
have always been a light guiding our way.
just wondering how experiences you have had on how the fabs have
helped you with their wonderful music!

hey well ive had a hard time over the last few years and they have helped me better than any meds or counseling

yeah, i've been going through quite a tough period recently &
thankfully the Beatles are here for me!

It's pretty generic, but they just always never fail to make me happy when I'm down. They turn   into  . Even the song I'm Down does that!  

I just remember John singing "Nothing to get hung about" and......all better.

Definitly...I was at a really low point with music & life in general. Restricting smalltime record deal, hopes dashed etc etc....I was encouraged to perform local again & reunited with an old band-friend who was also going through a tough time. Together we discovered that we had progressed as musicians and were able to play quite a few songs very quickly. Then it wasn't too long before we had a good couple of sets.

The joy of discovering the chords & being able to play & sing them was an uplifting experience for both of us and I'm pleased to say, that 1st gig, where we imagined the punter stumbling upon a 'Lennon & McCartney' belting out duo renditions of their old faves in their local boozer was a good vibe to set. It was easy to pull off with passion as I had loved & listened to them all my life. Gotta say nice one Lee (John) for that.

I'm glad to also say that I'll be flying to Rome in November as a full Beatle ensemble, belting out my fave Macca numbers....On a sadder note it was also the Beatles that greatly consoled me when my mother passed.

Anyways....enough harpin on. Well, well, well we'll fix you indeed.

nice one apple mate and now you can make people who are down or sad better when you play the beatles songs on tour, so youre passing on the love

Sometimes they help ,as do other artists . But friends and family are just as important to me when times are difficulte .

Helping?!  If anything, they turned...me...on to wanting to see things through their drug haze.  (j/k)

i'm learning english by listening to songs mostly, they kinda helped me with my english, you know. not sure if that counts though.

i think it counts if you feel it is the most enjoyable way for you to learn English and it works then thats great

I'm needing the Beatles badly at the moment!
i'm not a well man

Yeah, the same with me. Their songs are pretty good to learn english, even teachers say that. And, sure, they make me happy when I'm sad, but, as DaveRam said, family is very important too in those cases.

Listening to The Beatles music has always been a good thing for me.  Their music make me happier. They have a song for almost every moment.
