Beatles Bits & Pieces

I read somewhere (not so recently) that in the first week their catalogue was made available for download last November, the most popular Beatles song was "Here Comes The Sun". Now, while that's a fine song, you can't help wondering if that wasn't also a consequence of people just wanting some heartwarming distraction from the freezing cold weather they were having at the time.

And on another Beatles-related note, a rather poignant observation about Brian Epstein was made in The Word magazine, namely that he would never have heard "Hey Jude". Obviously one can simply work this out by knowing the relevant dates but when it's put like that, it's rather sad.
