The Beatles visit the TVC animation studio in London (November 1967)
JOHN: I’m not a tough guy. I’ve always had to have a facade of being tough to protect myself from other people’s neuroses. But really, I’m a very sensitive and weak guy. PAUL: John and I were two of the luckiest people in the twentieth century to have found each other. The partnership, the mix, was incredible. We both had submerged qualities that we each saw and knew. I had to be the bastard as well as the nice melodic one and John had to have a warm and loving side for me to stand him all those years. John and I would never have stood each other for that length of time had we been just one-dimensional. (1997) GEORGE: John Lennon is a saint, and he’s heavy-duty, and he’s great, and I love him. But at the same time, he’s such a bastard. (1974) RINGO: I was a big fan of John’s. I always felt he had the biggest heart, and he wasn’t the cynic that people thought. He had the biggest heart and he was the fastest. He was in and out. While we were still getting in he was out and on to the next round. (1995)
“I felt naked without my guitar, you know. George couldn’t sing because he was laughing so much” - John Lennon
Lennon-McCartney in (some of) the Beatles dramas
Here’s some Lennon-McCartney action for anon! Thought I’d go with them messing around in their Day in the Life outfits, because it’s 1967 again!
Based on this [X]
I’ve listened to this a million times and I think I finally have the lyrics down as best as possible.
Paul: Well now, Johnny Johnny, oh Johnny Johnny, Oh Johnny Johnny, Johnny Johnny, Johnny Johnny, oh lord, Johnny boy.
How we gonna tell ‘em? Why don’t we go and keep on home?
Well, well, Johnny, my boy.
Why don’t we go and tell 'em what we’re after? Johnny, ooooh Johnny Johnny boy, tell them the message of ours.
Oh, Johnny, well, you got me, will you be my boy? Hey, take it, John. Ha!
John: Oh little boy, packing my shoes, as if I’m not gonna lose you.
That’s right, hon. I’m gonna see my sister soon.
She don’t see me, I don’t know really what I’m gonna do. I don’t know what I’m gonna do. Well!
Paul: Well, Johnny, Johnny, Johnny
When I call you Johnny boy
Well Johnny John, oooh Johnny, when I’m calling you
Well, I don’t know what I’m gonna tell 'em. That’s why I’m asking my best boy.
Will you tell me, will you tell me?
John: Well I’ll tell the fellas that I’d travel with you (or “i do love you”???)
Oh when you pull I shouldn’t be back, be back this time. I don’t know if that’s good.
Paul: I don’t know what I’m gonna do when I tell my father ya want me, Johnny.
John: I love you, Paul! Aaaaahh
Paul: You think you’d better leave, you think you follow me. Aaah Ah, we better leave right now. I’m gonna leave.
John: Take the next bus out of town, it won’t let nobody down.
Both: Well, we’re gonna leave together, get out of town, leave together.
Paul: Won’t let you down. Get out, get out. Oh, oh, oh, oh, John x10, oh
John: I don’t know x6, know, know, know, know
Well, I’ll just survive. Turn your head from somebody else’s kiss. I’m gonna leave, I’m leaving with you. Yeah, someday x4
Paul: Well, I’ll tell ya (John: Yeeaaaaah)
Well, I’ll tell ya, you’re all I want, you’re all I want, you’re all I want
Let’s go get out of town. Aaah, oooooh, oh, we gotta move far, far away from this old town.
Move on over, leave. We’re going over, across the stream.
No one will know who we are, are. We gotta go away. We’re gonna go far away. Well, we’re gonna go far away. x2
John: Well, go, go, go, go. Oooooh
Both: Hey, hey, hey x10
John: I’m gonna leave. We’re gonna leave that town
Both: We’re gonna leeeeave
Paul: *laughs adorably*
"I can see the Beatles sticking together forever, really. We’ve been together a long time." - George Harrison
John, Paul, George and Ringo from 1961 to 1970
The First and Last Time The Beatles ever did their own make up. Dear me.

Paul is no longer a daddy’s baby! <3 The things I did for love.
The Lil Help-instagram posts! They’re all part of the AU(click here for the AO3 series page), so see it as an extension of the series (or just something to ridicule. It’s all up to you! Just don’t make fun of it to my face please). Do enjoy/share/reblog/whatever, but please credit me ( @blobfishmiffy) and the original template artist*** if you feel like reposting (which I heavily doubt will happen but like. y’know.)
I hope you enjoy!

John Lennon and George Harrison on the train back to New York City from Washington, D.C., February 12, 1964
Thought I’d share this with you, Strudel… I was listening to Glass Onion and pictured John singing the whole “The Walrus was Paul” part and looking at Paul to see him standing at his mic like
(Consider it an art idea 👀)

Here's a comic based off of one of my favorite scenes from @purechocolade's fanfic, On Our Way Back Home! It's an extremely long story but it's honestly one of my favorite works of fiction at the moment—it's such a shame there isn't more fanart for it ;-;
fuck love except whatever that doe eyed bass playing twink and that big nosed blind rhythm guitarist had
