Beatles Forever!

Eviga Beatles är en hyllning till Fab Four. “Beatles Forever” is a tribute to the Fab Four.

Sexy song bird Maria is a Mary Hopkins throwback. All the boys here in the studio want to bed her! When constructing a playlist, place Eviga Beatles— “Beatles Forever”— alongside “Those Were the Days” or similar Apple releases. Doubling Maria’s voice in the mix has created a nice ABBA effect.

The lyrics are the usual realPfft combination of brilliant insight and hopeless sentimentality. The phrase “We are all Beatles” wins the prize for hokey drivel. Read the English translation below.

Cover artist Kuny used Copilot to create lettering based on Rubber Soul and to show Paul and Ringo in living color while John and George are spooky, ghostly apparitions in black & white.

Beatles Forever

A lonely heart beats in 4/4 time

A simple rhythm, in child-like glee

From the gray streets of Livepool

A dream of boundless summer fun.

“Yeah, yeah, yeah” echoes in a chorus

Of simple joy, free of sorrow

We search for truth in a beat

A bridge of sound, a musical refuge.

But the world turns, tones become brittle

And the sun’s rays beat down

“Yesterday” whisper quiet memories

Of all that was, now soon gone.

Psychedelic dream in color

Lucy with diamonds in her soul

“All you need is love” sung in harmony

But what is love, is it true, is it complete?

“Strawberry Fields” in perpetual fog

A place where nothing is as it seems

“Across the Universe” a star shines                                                       

Jai guru deva om,” an eternal conclusion.

We travel through time and space

Toward the horizon in a yellow submarine

A collective meditation

A spiritual journey, beyond spontaneous.                                                                                 

But the world turns, tones become brittle                                                              

And the rays of the sun beat down

“Yesterday” whisper quiet memories

Of all that was, now soon gone.

Psychedelic dream in color

Lucy with diamonds in her soul

“All you need is love” sung in harmony                                                            

But what is love, is it true, is it complete?

“Eleanor Rigby” cleans the church

A mirror of our loneliness

“Let it be” a wisdom, free of cost

An acceptance of our shared existence.

We seek answers in a melody

But the answer is a question, never ending                                                                    

The mystery of music is our philosophy

A search constantly disappearing.

The beat goes on, a ceaseless pulse

From a simple “She loves you” to “Abbey Road”

We are all Beatles, in a chaotic waltz

A journey without end, a timeless coda.

We are yesterday, we are today

We are a dream, we are a song

A melody that never dies

In the limitless stream of time.
