No One Knows The Top Notes
(While in music class, we get off topic and begin discussing influential bands. To the surprise of no one, this turns into a conversation about the Beatles, arguably one of the most recognizable bands in history. However, it seems that one girl does not know who they are:)
Girl: “I have never heard of the Beatles…”
Teacher: “I have no idea how you have never even heard of their name. They recorded over 400 songs, so there has got to be a way you’ve heard at least one at some point in your life.”
Girl: “I don’t think so…”
Me: “Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, George Harrison, John Lennon? Any of those names at all sound familiar?”
Girl: “No…”
Student #1: “They wrote ‘Here Comes the Sun’ and ‘Come Together.’ Those are pretty recognizable songs.”
Girl: “Doesn’t sound familiar.”
Student #1: “You gotta be f****** kidding me here.”
Student #2: “Wait! [Girl], you’ve seen Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, right?”
Girl: “Of course!”
Student #2: “You know that scene where Ferris gets on that parade float and sings that song ‘Twist and Shout’? That’s a song by the Beatles!”
Girl: “Oh… I thought that was actually Matthew Broderick singing that…”
