It is impossible to be in a bad mood when you listen to this song.
When I was little I always claimed that Ringo was my favorite Beatle, because I felt bad for him and I have had a morbid fascination with drummers my whole life. As I got older I started to fall in love with Lennon, because all teen girls LOVE Lennon. He was rebellious enough to piss off your parents but safe enough to fall in love with. I even had that poster of him giving a peace sign in front of the Statue of Liberty on my bedroom wall. I went through a major Harrison phase in college and when I started having real relationships I fell in love with McCarthy.
“Whatever Gets You Through The Night” might be the song to put Lennon back on top. He’s a great rebound Beatle when your heart feels broken, John will always make it all better. It has been said that nobody loves being in love more than McCartney, but nobody loves women more than Lennon.
