No! Stop the McCartney-bashing IMMEDIATELY! He's even got a passable haircut 
now! Even the Frog Chorus was inifinitely better than that whimsical shite 
relating to a meaningless Irish 'heritage' Lennon indulged in in the 1970s. 
His insistence on remaining dead continues to be an astoundingly astute 
career move.

Fair enough, Paul's last album was severely crap but think of John's singing 
on 'Free As A Bird' - it sounded like it was coming out of a skip. Was that 
the best he could do in the 90s? And in the promotional pics for the very 
same single he looked exactly like John Shuttleworth. Apart from that he 
hasn't even been that prolific since 1980 - the amazing workrate Freddie 
Mercury has managed to sustain despite copping it nine years ago makes Lennon 
look downright shoddy in comparison.

So that's told you then. And stop trying to be hard pretending you don't like 
the Beatles.
