Watching the Beatles on tv when I was 9, then I started liking them. Then since I liked them my mom got me AHDN, and it was my favorite movie.
Then after not watching it for over a year, I watched it on November 1st, 2003, and watched it every day for half of November. Then I started looking them up on the internet, and I became obsessed. ;D

I have Rolling Stone magazine to thank. They published a review of the best 500 albums ever made. The 1# album was Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club band. Well, I thought to myself, I have to listen to this album. So I did. Several dozen times. That will always be my favourite XD.

My obsession comes purely from my parents, who were playing Beatles to me since before I can remember. Fan since birth here. XD Word, brotha. |

XD Yeah, when I was little my parents and I used to go on a lot of long road trips. When we went on such trips, my parents used to play me a tape that they had made which was the kid-friendly tracks from the White Album- Rocky Raccoon, Glass Onion, et al- and played it for me all the time. I loved this tape- I always requested it. When I was about twelve, I was kind of in between things that I could a fanatic about- there was bway at that point, but I wasn't as crazy about it as now. And it had never occurred to me to ask who sang the songs on this tape, so I did. My parents said "The Beatles." I was very suprised. I knew the Beatles of course, but I had never thought they were cool until then. I stole the White Album CD and their others and have never surrendered them since. |

Let's see....
I got the Red Album out of the library one day, listened to it during a week long vacation, and fell in love.
But what really deepened the obsession was the fact that when my grandpa passed away, Beatles music was the only thing that helped.

The Drummer  Ringo!!! He shakes his head side to side and sort of headbangs while he drums. it's cute!!! lol! the songs! "she loves you yeah yeah yeah!... woooo!!!" *screams* The funnyness They're original. hahah! I was watching Ferris Beuller's day off when it was on tv when i was 14.. it had the song Twist 'n Shout in it. I really really really started to like that song. I asked my dad,, "who sing's that song???" and he replied "the beatles" and i was like... oh really? and then for my 15th birthday, my parents asked me what i wanted and i said 'aww please don't laugh... but I want a beatles cd..." and my dad bougt it for me YAY!!! I've been hooked ever since... What played a BIG part of it... was that they won an award for some music awards, in 2001... and they had a 2 and a half minutes clip of them... sgt peppers, shea stadium, video clips, paperback writer, hello goodbye, help!, and much more.. i taped it and watched it over and over about 100 times a day... the tape... is REALLY worn out now... hehe |

Okay, I've listen to their music since I was 2, but when I was 8 my parents got divorced and I was getting teased at school. I wanted to kill myself, I tried, but being 8 I didn't really know how, so I started eatting TUMS like candy. My grandma and aunt noticed that I was getting paler everyday, until I looked like a walking dead person. My grandma sat me down one night and put in Yellow Submarine. I watched THe Beatles on the screen and how there was no pain there with them. I then saw the end part, where you see them as real people. I saw Paul's eyes and I was hooked!
