This almost brought me to tears

[Mintahy]

We're making music videos in theater, and our teacher said that you will be stuck with a Beatles song if you don't know what song to pick,
and this girl in the back raises her hand and goes,
"Uh miss? WHO R D BEATLES?"

My teacher was speechless, and all she could say was
"They are bigger than Jesus."

But however, I was shook by the question,
and I couldn't bring myself to getting over it.

Discuss:
-Situations like this.

xd That's pathetic. I've never had anyone say that. I've had people not recognize them, but never not know who they are. :/

That's just sad. gonk

But I thought you were going to say something drastic like Paul died or something! D:

I was about to say "ALMOST bring you to tears????" xd


What a relief!  

[XxLucy_with_diamondsxX]

[xPaint_Me_In_Pastelsx]

One of my friends didn't know who the Beatles were until Across the Universe came out  

[Rita Starr is Gone]

Whoa.
Sometime like that happen to me once.
I had to do a project about the tones in songs.
So I picked two Beatles' songs. Hey Jude and Help!
and presented Help! to my class people looked at me and looked so confused.

I know sum pple who dunno who they are... I'm kinda used to it tho. And take it upon myself to teach them. By the end of it, I've given them sumthing to appreciate too. biggrin At our skool there are a lot of Vietnamese and Africans. They like diff music entirely -the ones I know.  

[MysticHumour]

There was this one girl at my school who didn't know what 9/11 was and she was born and was here in America when it happened.

But not knowing who the Beatles are? That's pathetic! They were world-wide.That's like saying you don't know what a god is... confused

I disagree. 9/11 is something we hear about all the time and happened fairly recently. The Beatles were failry old, and not really known by younger people nowadays. 9/11 should be known by almost everyone considering how much we hear about it from the media.  

[Lennon Revived]

I'm saying that she should have known what 9/11 is, but I guess she needs to pull out of the Strawberry Fields. But anyone with a moderate interest in music, [Like this person] should have known who the Beatles were.

 

[Sweet Milk Bambi]

I know what you mean, but she REALLY should have known what 9/11 is, even more than the Beatles. And today's youth has no interest in music as an art. Its all Hannah Montana and Avril Lavigne and Britney Spears.

I agree.  

[Lennon Revived]

I agree, too. And rap.

[[There is a reason why "rap" rhymes with "crap."]]
