Nunca concordo com listas, mas esta é até boa. E imensa. Indignei-me com a colocação de Rain lá no final, mas tudo bem. Os Beatles era um grupo diferente. Havia talento demais envolvido. Como escreveu a revista — alterei muito algumas coisinhas — , John Lennon e Paul McCartney foram compositores excepcionais; McCartney e George Harrison foram músicos verdadeiramente virtuosos; Harrison era um guitarrista de cujos solos conhecemos cada pausa, o que dirá do restante (mais importante, tudo o que fazia sempre se encaixava perfeitamente). Ringo Starr era Ringo Starr, o sortudo. E, acima de tudo, John e Paul eram cantores fantásticos.
Há um pequeno problema nisso tudo. Acho que sei cantar todas as músicas abaixo… Garanto ao menos o início de todas, certamente! Minha impressão é de que vieram pré-instaladas no meu cérebro.
