How we discovered "The Beatles"
Seven years have passed , since we first heard of the most beautiful songs of “The Beatles”.We remember with love those unique moments lived on the magical chords of the greatest hits of the band.When we first listened to them, we were joining a theatre show, looking forward to seeing the young actors, who were playing the four legendary singers. Suddenly, we heard someone struming a guitar : “Let it be!Let it be!”
In a minute the stage was filled with little actors who were singing the most popular songs of the four big artists.The members of the band throughout times were: John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Stu Sutcliffe and Pete Best, who was replaced with Ringo Starr. Stu Sutcliffe, the first who approach the long hair fashion, decided to stay in Germany , after the second tour in Hamburg.The initial name of the band was “The Silver Beatles”, which was changed in “The Beatles”. “Beatles” comes from the noun “beetle” and the verb “to beat”.
Those beautiful songs, harmoniously combined with the acting made us fall in love with the most famous band: “The Beatles”.No week has passed since then without our remembering the songs full of color and rythm: we sing, laugh, trying to spread our joy and appetite for life to people around us. "Michelle", "Obla-di, Obla-d,", "Imagine", "Yellow submarine", "All you need is love" are just some of the songs that we promise to bring back to life with our voice , the voice of youth.
Those days, we were only 9-10 years old.We have informed ourselves a lot , we have tried to find out the most important aspects about the years of glory of the band and we will share with you in a few lines the career of the most loved and important band in the UK.

Career
John Lennon (9 October 1940),a young rebel, showed interest in music, being influenced by skiffle phenomenon which contained the UK to mid'50. Therefore, John, together with otherschool mates,had established their first band "The Quarrymen", where John was the guitarist and vocal soloist.After a "Quarrymen” concert, John Lennon met Paul McCartney (18 June 1942).John was impressed by his talent,so he asked him to join the band.
Not long after this,George Herrison(24 February 1943) joined the band, despite of his early age.John was convinced that together with an old friend from the café "The Casbah Club",Pete Best, will form the perfect band.This is how the band took birth.
The four artists began their carrer in a modest English pub , the first night apparitions turned them into a real musical force . Their first manager, Brian Epstein, helped the boys to conclude a contract with the label "Parlophone” EMI.
At that time, John and Paul composed the music for the band and one of their compositions had been chosen as the first single "Love me do". Before it was recorded,Pete Best was replaced with a drummer, Ringo Starr (real name Richard Starbey 7 July 1940).In 1962, the single entered the Top 20 rankings - a quiet, but promising beginning.
With the second single "Please me,please", the boys managed to give the coup.The sound of their happy songs, their long hair and collarless jackets gave a new fashion trend.With the song "From me to you",the boys managed to steal first place in ratings. "She loves you”, with its captivating chorus:" Yeah, yeah, baby " became one of the best selling singles of all times, and with “I Want to Hold Your Hand" they reached for the first time on U.S top rankings . British press invented a new concept to describe their success without previous: BEATLEMANIA.

Heritage
"The Beatles" enjoyed tremendous succes, but also difficulties.In'69 it was said that “The Beatles” would be out slowly.Each member of the band followed his way. Unfortunately, John Lennon was assassinated in 1980, Paul retired officially from the band, and G. Harrison's life came to an end in December 2001. Currently, only Paul McCartney continues to sing solo.
The heritage "The Beatles" have left,has resisted through the passing of time and their songs succeeded honourably in the time’s exams. Almost four decades after their break , “The Beatles” remains the most famous pop group of all times.
