Yesterday was the last day of FABruary, so I decided to binge listen to The Beatles. I started with Please Please Me, and then listened in chronological order. The last album I listened to was Magical Mystery Tour. All of the time, I was intentionally listening with only a few 5 to 10 minute breaks between albums sometimes. I also chose to watch the music videos/performance videos for a few of the songs. After getting through the 9 albums, I watched some misc Beatles music videos. When I got to Revolver, I started getting really sentimental and I was crying tears of joy from some of the songs. I have never felt that from Revolver before. And then during Sgt Peppers, I was feeling incredibly euphoric like I was floating away to another world. During Magical Mystery Tour, it was even more intense. My mind melted away. No thoughts, complete focus, all that existed was The Beatles. I felt the best feeling I felt in a really long time. All that euphoria lasted for a while even after the Beatle marathon, and I got a real afterglow and had the songs repeating in my head. After the high wore off, my head and ears hurt for a while, but it was worth it. Has anyone else here experienced something similar?
Very Cool! I have done the same with the first seven Moody Blues albums from 'Days of Future Past' all the way thru to 'Seventh Sojourn.' Quite a head trip!
Despite my threats to call Rentokil, the Beatles still held a concert a few miles away from our home. The place was in so much utter turmoil, I had to escape to the opera house.
