"We did the Shirelles’ “Soldier Boy,” which is a girl’s song. It never occurred to us. No wonder all the gays liked John. And Ringo used to sing “Boys.” Another Shirelles number. It was so innocent. We never even thought, Why is he singing about boys? We loved the song. We loved the records so much that what it said was irrelevant, it was just the spirit, the sound, the feeling" - Paul McCartney
They are so perfect
John Lennon and Paul McCartney behind the scenes of Magical Mystery Tour (1967)
2003: The Quarrymen have conflicting hazy memories on what happened the day John and Paul first met. (Note: In order of appearance: Rod Davis, Len Garry, Colin Hanton, Eric Griffiths. Ignore the erroneous lower third that pops up indicating Len Garry; it’s Eric Griffiths.)
Based on “Love Me Do: The Beatles’ Progress” by Michael Braun for The Observer (5 July 1964).
Scotch and music:
“Uh, I need another drink, baby,’ says John.
Paul goes to the phone. ‘Hello? Yeah, send us six single Scotches - No, make it doubles, yeah, doubles.”
Title: Arrow Through Me
Summary: This is a look at what might have happened to the band, and especially John and Paul, if Paul had come to the conclusion before he met John that he wasn't straight. This fic tells the story of the band with that new context, and therefore it will diverge from the events as we know them.
Notes: Just so you all know, this is complete and being posted weekly.
