The Beatles have always had a big effect on me.

When I was growing up, the people who liked the Beatles, I didn't like, so I didn't pay attention to them.

I just got into the Beatles a couple years ago, you know, I like it.

I was still listening to the Beatles until I came here, you know.

The Beatles just changed everything right across the board. They just had that right combination of clean-cut good looks - a cute band - but under that they had a real rock n' roll thing going on.

So whenever I hear The Beatles I always feel I've got a lot in common with everybody else.

But times changed, and I changed, and I didn't feel that way anymore. The Beatles were happening. I think that was probably the main thing. The Beatles just changed the whole world of music.

I remember, when I was a kid, listening to the radio and hearing 'Big Bad John' by Jimmy Dean - and it just blew me away. I used to sit there and call the radio stations and request that song. And then the Beatles were obviously out already, but I really didn't know about the Beatles.

I'm a huge Beatles fan, but I've only really gotten into them as an adult.

The Beatles were raw musically, but I think they really had something.
