There will always be that strange breed who care not a fig for British royalty and yet insist on clicking on a post about it. I find such a mindset to be puzzling. I suppose they enjoy declaring their indifference, or even their contempt, so let us hope they gain some satisfaction from this thread.

I, for one, echo your thoughts, and thank you for your kind comment.

May God bless the little prince.

Even Maxwell Silverhammer, a lovely, bouncy little tune about a serial killer. It’s what they used to call a ‘Toe-Tapper’.

Allegedly that's the song that ultimately broke up the Beatles, because the other band members were upset that Paul was spending so much time on getting that song right, it led to the row that wound up breaking up the band.

I never heard about that before. That this song may have led to their breakup. When something like that happens, it’s often a ‘Straw that broke the camel’s back” situation.
The group was likely on thin ice already, this was all it took to push a hole in the surface.

Apparently, they were able to repair the relationship before:
“I’m fixing a hole, where the rain gets in, and stops my mind from wandering...”

I care so little about them that I will not even open this thread, much less post anything in it!

I do admit that I look at threads like these to see how many people post that sort of reaction.

And then some of us know our history and have a good idea about what some of the royals have gotten up to over the years, including lately. I’m happy to hear mom and baby are doing well, but if the UK fired all their royals tomorrow, I’d be doing a happy dance for the UK.

The relationships were frayed since at least as far back as the “White Album”, with Harrison walking out of the studio in a huff at one point, and McCartney basically recording all the instruments on some of his songs instead of collaborating with anyone else in the band. Of course, that was also the point where John was insisting that Yoko be in the studio when none of the other wives were there, which also caused a lot of tension.

Congratulations to them, babies are a blessing. Hopefully they can stop lecturing the rest of us not to have more than two kids.

Paul was always brimming with catchy melodies. Even Maxwell Silverhammer, a lovely, bouncy little tune about a serial killer.

I was hoping they would have a girl and name her Nannette. But an Englishwoman I know doesn't think that's an appropriate name for an English princess. She remarked, "no, no, Nannette!"
