The country was in a funk after the assassination of JFK, and the Beatles single-handedly turn everything around for us in 1964. That really was a great time to be young and a Beatles fan. I remember their appearance on the Ed Sullivan show and how wonderful they were. I became a Beatles fan for life after I saw their movie: A Hard Day's Night." Share your memories with me.

Absolutely. I was a guitarist in a band and we sang Beatles songs. I sang George Harrison tunes because his vocal range was the same as mine, not too many high notes. Yeah, I remember singing Happy Just to Dance With You at a high school dance and the girls digging it. Hard Days Night the movie was both funny and philosophical.

OMG, I still remember the Ed Sullivan show too. I couldn't decide if I was in love with Paul or George! I was never lucky enough to get to see them live, but I remember the stories about how you couldn't hardly hear their music for all the screaming from the crowd. I have a couple of DVD's that have a lot of footage from their first American tour, it's quite a scene! Girls crying and fainting in the aisles and stuff...

I wasn't born when they came to America but I have Beatle and McCartney DVD's and you can just see how people just went wild over them.On one of the DVD's,it shows them on Ed Sullivan and you could see people screaming,crying and some even passing out...There will never be another group like them.

I wasnt born back then, but I love seeing the footage of Beatles concerts from Sydney & Adelaide ( I`m Australian) , the crowd went completely mad, everyone was screaming & no one heard any music for the whole set. The Beatles are awesome, they still will be in 200 years time. Good question, thanks
