kalphs Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Wow! I guess I never thought of the fab four in regards to aging. I always imagine them as they little cuties they were in the 1960's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mom in High Heels Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Wow. Coincidentally, James Bond is taking a movie course and today he had to turn in his first paper. He wrote it on A Hard Day's Night. He lurves the Beatles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astrid Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Thanks for posting that. I didn't know that song was about John Lennon. Yes, I teach the song in my English classes. It's one of my favorites. Here are the lyrics: Empty Garden (Hey, Hey, Johnny) by Elton John What happened here As the New York sunset disappeared I found an empty garden among the flagstones there Who lived here He must have been a gardener that cared a lot Who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop And now it all looks strange It's funny how one insect can damage so much grain And what's it for This little empty garden by the brownstone door And in the cracks along the sidewalk nothing grows no more Who lived here He must have been a gardener that cared a lot Who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop And we are so amazed we're crippled and we're dazed A gardener like that one no one can replace And I've been knocking but no one answers And I've been knocking most all the day Oh and I've been calling oh hey hey Johnny Can't you come out to play And through their tears Some say he farmed his best in younger years But he'd have said that roots grow stronger if only he could hear Who lived there He must have been a gardener that cared a lot Who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop Now we pray for rain, and with every drop that falls We hear, we hear your name Johnny can't you come out to play in your empty garden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KidsHappen Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 sniff. Google Kalanamak, I bet I'll think of Spy Car every time I hear that song for the rest of my life. This is mine and my hubby's song. This really makes me feel old though. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
