I listened to the Beatles LOVE album again today.
The most impressive thing about the Beatles was their ability to write the songs they did while in the midst of the most crazy schedule you or I could ever think of.
Hard Days Night, In My Life, Can’t Buy Me Love and Eight Days A Week are great songs. Timeless songs. Now imagine your busiest day you’ve ever had, multiply it by four or five and then somehow find the time to sit down with a guitar, clear your mind and crank out songs this great.
That’s the genius. That’s the only thing that sets that band apart from all the others.
All bands’ stories are pretty much the same. We’ve all watched the story arcs on vh1 and endless netflix documentaries.
The songs are the only difference. But if the Beatles had the time to write great songs, then you do too. Your busy schedule is not an excuse.
