In response to "All My Loving"

I didn’t know that until this week. I think he would have liked it to be his music. But, yeah, he’d probably have preferred ‘Strawberry Fields.’

In response to "All My Loving"

I read this was the first song they ever sang on American TV on Ed Sullivan. That sounds right. I had thought it was Please Please Me, but it's this one, according to Google.

I also remember when John Lennon was being rushed to the ER, the reporter said this song was playing on the muzak in the elevator when they brought him into Roosevelt Hospital.

So, maybe the last thing he heard was their music. I imagine he would have grumbled that it had to be Paul singing lead, but to go into heaven hearing his own music. I don't know, but it's one of the things that comforted me at the time.

In response to "While My Guitar Gently Weeps"

I agree with everything you said. I love the way you say your senses awaken when you hear this. It’s a perfect description

In response to "While My Guitar Gently Weeps"

While my guitar gently weeps:

Each time this song plays, my senses awaken, and a surge of energy courses through me. My skin tingles, hairs standing on end, as endorphins flood my system, sparking waves of dopamine that make me feel like a live wire. The air shimmers with vibrant blues, and my spirit radiates joy, elation, and pure ecstasy.

In response to "If I Fell"

I agree. It's hard to believe this was recorded so long ago, isn't it. But, wow. Their voices just seem to fit. Let's hope that one day, whether in this life or in the future, we do meet with them and get to hear them together again.

In response to "For No One"

I always admired Jane Asher. She never sold her story or blabbed about Paul this or Paul that. I think all the other ex-es cashed in. Maybe not Maureen Starkey. Not sure about her. She seemed more private, too.

I remember how lovely Jane Asher was in the movie, Alfie.

But I noticed that she didn't seem as hurt by the breakup as he did. She seemed to be more relieved than hurt in everything I saw about it.

In response to "If I Fell"

I was just thinking that after all these 60 plus years, I hear John and Paul sing this and I get chills.

I know what you mean by grateful. If I see any of them in this life (will never happen) or a future one, I hope I remember to thank them.

September 2nd

Which of your WDC friends deserves some recognition? How have they supported you over your time here? Post about it in the newsfeed, your notebook, or a blog.

Wow. This is a hard task to write about. How to pin down just one person? So many people have helped, encouraged and befriended me over the years. I guess, though, for this last year I've been touched with the kindness, friendship and compassion of 🌻 pwheeler ~ happy 25th WDC

.

Phyllis really cares about, not just me, but, all of her friends on here. Many times, when I have been feeling low, or like I wasn't achieving anything, I've had an email from her, asking how I was doing. Almost like she has a sixth sense. And, oaky, I know she is on the other side of the pond from me, but I can tell she genuinely wants to know. She doesn't just ask how I am because it's what people say. She 'listens' and I always feel heard with Phyllis.

Not only this, but she has been sending me merit badges for a few months, on behalf of Schnujo's next semester starts

and "The Contest Challenge"

. This has taken a lot of work on her part, and they have made me feel appreciated and loved. I know this will be true of everyone to whom she has been sending these badges.

So, really, I am thanking Phyllis for being a wonderful friend. Phyllis, I know you have you own stuff to deal with, so that makes it extra special when I see how much you care about others.
