Old Bands Round 2 The Beatles vs. Jimi Hendrix

[ZebraRampage]

The Beatles



Hey Jude

Hey, Jude, don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better

Hey, Jude, don't be afraid
You were made to go out and get her
The minute you let her under your skin
Then you begin to make it better.

And any time you feel the pain, hey, Jude, refrain
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders
Well don't you know that its a fool who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder

Hey, Jude! Don't let her down
You have found her, now go and get her
Remember, to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better.

So let it out and let it in, hey, Jude, begin
You're waiting for someone to perform with
And don't you know that it's just you, hey, Jude,
You'll do, the movement you need is on your shoulder

Hey, Jude, don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better



Jimi Hendrix



Purple Haze

Purple Haze was all in my brain,
lately things don't seem the same,
actin' funny but I don't know why
'scuse me while I kiss the sky.

Purple Haze all around,
don't know if I'm coming up or down.
Am I happy or in misery?
Whatever it is, that girl put a spell on me.

Purple Haze was in my eyes,
don't know if it's day or night,
you've got me blowing, blowing my mind
is it tomorrow or just the end of time?

My god.


On one hand, you have the beatles. Possibly one of the best bands ever. On the other hand you have Jimi Hendrix, possibly the best gutar player ever, plus he lived in Vancouver.


This is tough.

I abstain for now.

Hmm...... I'm gonna go with Hendrix.

Because The Beatles were great, yes, but that can't compare to Hendrix. Hendrix taught himself how to play guitar, and left-handed even. Which was unheard of in those times, and it's still kind of rare to see today. I have more respect for Hendrix......

[DimHalo]

I was raised on the Beatles. So, while I do believe that Hendrix is a guitar god of some sort. I have more respect for the Beatles.

I'll get the new bands one up in a moment. I forgot to let Vampyr know, but I only had time to do one earlier.

By the way, Paul McCartney flipped the strings around on his bass so that he could play left-handed, so he taught himself to do that as well. Just thought I'd share that with you. Go Beatles!

[Perfect Stu]

the Beatles, by a landslide

and I'm a big Hendrix fan...
