what would the world be like without Penny Lane, Lucy in the Sky, Help from Friends, A Day in the Life, Walrus, Hey Bulldog, Across the Universe, All you Need, It's all too Much( which would've made a great b-side to Helter Skelter), Revolution, The White Album, Let it Be(naked), Abby Road?
that's crazy good music. I never skip any song on the White Album because listening to it has always been like some ritual or prayer. I have to make time these days to make it all the way through. I skip through Pepper sometimes and I even like When im 64. it's one of those 'pothead' albums like Dark Side of the Moon that you have to hear ripping bong hits. it's still trippy even today.

Yeah man, great moments on The Whit Album. I think the verse of Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill is one of the best pretty much ever. The chord progression, the lyrics, Lennon's voice. God I love that song. And Everybody's Got Something to Hide Except for Me and My Monkey. That's a banger, straight up. Then there's all the other golden songs like I'm so Tired, Back in the USSR, Helter Skelter, fucking Long, Long, Long.
Gotta listen to it now.
