Something That Has Me Absolutely Gutted Over John, Paul And George Is The Fact That They Met When They

something that has me absolutely gutted over john, paul and george is the fact that they met when they were young teenagers.

paul was shorter than john when they met. i’m sure his voice hadn’t fully dropped yet either.

john quite literally watched them grow taller than him (i know he and george were about the same height but my point still stands, he watched his younger friends turn into peers turn into completely realized adult men).

and of course john was growing right with them. the de facto leader in the early years making it up as he went as these teenage boys looked up to him. have you seen a 19 year old try to act put together?

i look back at pictures of my friends from high school and i when we were 14-17 and we’ve already changed so much. round faces are sharper, life experience is deeper. i met up with my best friend from childhood for dinner a few months ago (at a bar, we went from polly pockets to IPAs ((i hate IPAs)) ) and i had the striking thought: suddenly we aren’t little girls anymore. but we still had our entire life shared. all those memories, all that drama from middle school to still rant about.

it was the same for those three boys.

i just think that adds a level of depth to their friendship and band that couldn’t be orchestrated.

think about their inside jokes. think about a 28 year old john lennon laughing at a joke that paul made from when they were 16 and 18. think about a 34 year old george smirking as he mumbles to himself a phrase only they would understand from their hamburg days. think about an 82 year old paul fondly remembering a hand gesture they would do to one another before going on stage and doing it to nancy, trying to explain to her what it meant.

think about how that affected the breakup of the band. after growing up together…did they really have an identity without the others?

it’s like the park bench “we were girls together”… they were boys together.

i think abt this a lot

Do you ever stop and remind yourself.....

That out of all the Beatles, Bob Dylan was himself and cheerful around George?

That Olivia refered to them as soulmates? Kinda romantic in a sense??

That Bob didn't collab often nor let people get close to him but George somehow managed to get close to him?

That Bob held George at such high regard and vice-versa?

That somebody reassured Pattie that Bob would never let George down when Bob was a no-show on the Bangladesh rehersals? And then despite his anxiousness and fear Bob went?

That George wrote a song that pleaded Bob to let him into his heart and that Bob reciprocated by saying "all i have is yours/ i'd have you anytime"

That George gifted Bob a guitar and Bob used it as an album cover?

That Bob found comfort and reassurance in George?

That they would attend events and parties together? Basically inseparable?

That George always wanted to be in a band with Bob and Bob despite being busy joined the Traveling Wilburys?

That when George felt low in the early 70s he stayed with Bob?

Yeah,me too.

SOBBING I LOVE THEM

MY BEAUTIFUL BOYS 😭😭😭

I See Pictures Like This And I’m Reminded That They Were Just Four Guys. Four Friends. They Had Inside

i see pictures like this and i’m reminded that they were just four guys. four friends. they had inside jokes that no one else in the world understands or even knows about. they have stories that are kept secret, memories that are legends. they probably teased eachother over their sleeping habits or if their socks smelled. they laughed until they cried and knew each others favorite holidays and pet peeves.

they were the biggest band in the world, yes, but they were really just four guys. four friends who miraculously fell into the positions they were in.
