Episode description

(This is an abridged version - subscribe at screwitpodcasts.com for the full version)

Beatlesque songs. Or is it Beatles-esque? We say it both ways in our traditional not-quite-sure-we're-right style!

But the point is we bring songs to the table that have reminded us of Beatles songs. There are so many ways this can happen! Sometimes it's the harmonies, sometimes the arrangement, other times the quality of the vocal. Sometimes it's something even more subtle.

This is not by any means a definitive or iconic list. This represents a thing all Beatles fans go through, which is hearing a song and going "oh man, this feels like The Beatles."

Some of the songs / artists discussed:

  • Zuder Zee

  • Adrian Belew - Men In Helicopters v4
  • Squeeze - Up The Junction

  • Prince - Around The World In A Day period

  • Elton John - Yellow Brick Road

  • The Knickerbockers - Lies

  • Michael Rault - I'll Be There

  • The Nerves - When You Find Out
