The ones the listeners loved most of all in those early years were the four Lennon girls who became the whole nation's little sisters.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Of the many guests we welcomed to the Mickey Mouse Club, my absolute favorites were the Lennon Sisters.
My parents were Beatle fans, but my mom was especially a Lennon fan, so I was exposed to him more. I remember her playing 'Double Fantasy' quite often.
I had girlfriends who really irritated me by their devotion to the Beatles. I didn't begrudge them their interest, and there were songs like 'Hey Jude' that I could appreciate. But they didn't seem to be essential to the kind of nourishment that I craved.
I loved John Lennon. I read interviews, and whatever he said he liked, I would go and listen to them. That is what I want to do with my fans.
While other girls swooned over The Beatles and the Rolling Stones, I worshipped Rudolf Nureyev and Isadora Duncan.
When I was growing up, the people who liked the Beatles, I didn't like, so I didn't pay attention to them.
As every teenage girl, I was absolutely obsessed with The Beatles, and the first record I bought was 'Please Please Me.' I'd have been 13 at the time.
All I can say is, it's not very easy for a woman to be associated with The Beatles.
There are only four people who knew what the Beatles were about anyway.
There weren't a lot of girl singers around. Paul McCartney and John Lennon were the guys I looked up to.
