@paul_is_my_husband I personally prefer steel strings over nylon, but you definitely want nylon strings on a classical guitar!!

Just watched the newest beatle plush episode.. I was quite surprised by the way it went - George and Ringo certainly seemed sick of it (no pun intended). 
          
          I also kept looking at little amigurumi Freddie and thinking he was gonna say or do something, like, encourage McLennon as if it were a show - I don't know why! XD
          
          Although that may just be my mind wanting a bit of a crossover with Queen/the Beatles, haha.

@paul_is_my_husband That's true! It's always fun when they're involved, and certainly great to have Freddie :)

@BrianBadgerMay haha, Freddie and the Monkee bears pop in and out sometimes! Fun to have them there too! Crochet Freddie is certainly a delight to have around :)

Hey, I wanted to say - your Beatle Plush Adventures series is rather entertaining (I mean that in a very good way, I just underreact with words to the point it sounds blunt or not the best). 
          
          it reminds me of when I play with the Beatles Little People (it always gets chaotic and it only got more when Linda and Yoko were added as characters XD). Also, Paul randomly bursting into song is so accurate!! I have to say, the McLennon references get me too. So overall, good job! Also, I'm John in that one part of episode 6 - "I don't really know what I'm doing, okay *awkward laughs and moves away*" XD

That's very true. Good point. And I haven't seen it around lately, which is too bad because it's tasty. But the others I've tried are good as well! But of course, there's a lot I haven't tried, like Whispa.

@BrianBadgerMay yeah I can still eat some American ones of course, but once I've had the Cadbury, there's a massive difference. I've been on the search for that one and I can't find it unfortunately, maybe one day because it sounds delicious.

@paul_is_my_husband That makes sense! And maybe I should try getting the ones I can't find in person, online. I do agree, although I eat some American chocolate.. But not much, haha! It just tastes like sugar and no flavor. My favorite at the moment (still!) Is the Dairy Milk Oreo one. That's really good. In fact, I didn't think I liked milk chocolate at all until I tried UK/Australian chocolate! And Cadbury is considered not "the best" in the UK, but it's way better than American ones!

@paul_is_my_husband about learning bass, it's fairly easy as a guitarist, and remember, Paul started on guitar and then became a really melodic bassist! (So did John Deacon; started on guitar and played bass later)

Thoughts on Look Up? I absolutely love it!!! ❤️❤️❤️

BrianBadgerMay

@paul_is_my_husband "Never Let Me Go" was really good too. I enjoyed "Come Back" A lot as well, I thought the whistling part was cute. It stood out to me. I'm only sad it's so short. Of course, I like "Thankful" and "Time On My Hands" also. "Look Up" had this modern call for peace thing, and I think it was nice but also typical Ringo. 
            I was wondering if this album would be better than "Beacoups Of Blues" and it's not. But it's different and still good. I guess it's more modern country.

@BrianBadgerMay I like that song too! I never knew any of the musicians on the album until listening to it, but they're all extremely talented. I'm completely hooked on the song "Never Let Me Go" at the moment. You're right, I should probably listen to it fully again. If I go back to my record store any time soon, I should see if they have this. I'd definitely get it. The video for "Look Up" is really nice too. Love that song as well, along with "Breathless" and "Rosetta". Those are the ones that stood out to me the most, I should probably listen fully again.

@paul_is_my_husband I listened to it yesterday. I thought it was pretty good, and I liked some songs more in particular but maybe I'll like it the more I listen to it?? I thought "You Want Some" was a fun honky-tonk tune. 
            
            He's got good musicians; Molly Tuttle is one of the only bluegrass artists I like (I really don't like bluegrass much, but she's good) - at least some songs.

Merry Christmas, everyone! I hope everyone has a Wonderful Christmastime! 
          
          Last year, I was battling covid during the worst possible time to be doing so. Through Christmas. I cried everyday, and I wasn't even feeling that bad, it was just the knowing. I wouldn't wish that upon anyone. 
          
          But aside from that, war is over if you want it! 
          
          I shall be listening to the Beatles Christmas records and songs all day with the added bonus of the Christmas Abbey Road shirt I've got :)

          I finally learned a song! This is the start of a series on my channel and I'll be releasing a video that explains more about what's going on tomorrow, but for now, yes, I know the cover isn't great, but I'm still learning and truly my persona, at least for now, is that I'm playing for fun and even if it sounds a little off or that I'm slow...well, I don't care. I'm just having fun. :)

          Midas Man was only available in the UK for months, meaning I was unable to see it...well, until now. 
          
          This is a link to pre-order it. Highly recommend, as it automatically puts you in the running for a trip to London and Liverpool! A complete dream come true! ❤️
