Discovering the Beatles

Last night on American Idol was Lennon and McCarthy night and I LOVED it. I know this is lame but growing up in Page AZ has made my knowledge base about music pretty close to non existant. Often Jon and I will be in the car and I will hear a song I like and I ask who sings this. I think it is a current artist and Jon rolls his eyes and laughs at me, tells me in an adoring way that I am a total wierdo and continues to tell me it was a classic song a few decades back by either The Beatles, Michael Jackson, or any other huge name that everybody and their dog has heard of. So as I watched American Idol last night I fell in love with the song "Let it Be." It is now my favorite song and me being the "Wierdo" that I am told Jon that this was a Beatles song I have never heard before and he had to listen to it. As we listened to it he told me I was a wierdo and yes it was indeed a very popular Beatles song. Along with 3 or 4 others I loved and had never heard. So yes this is just another area of my life that my cute husband upstages me in. I am so lucky to have a husband who is so smart and musically knowledgable. But I bet I could still beat him in a little one on one. But we won't tell him that!
