Everyone knows that by the end of the 60's John Lennon and Paul McCartney were headed in different directions creatively.
I don't really care what side you come down on on that issue, it doesn't matter. I've personally always trended toward McCartney's stuff myself, but that is cause John just seems to serious to me. But if you need an indication of how polar their directions were look no further than the Christmas "hits" the put out after the split.
John: (nasally and overly-sincere voice) "So this is Christmas, And what have you done, Another year over, And a new one just begun"
Paul: (overly jolly) "Simply, having, a wonderful Christmas time. Simply, having, a wonderful Christmas time."
John: "So this is Christmas, and what have you done, the war is over, and you're really bummed!"
Paul: "Simply, having, a wonderful Christmas time. Simply, having, a wonderful Christmas time."
John: "So this is Christmas, and what have you done, you murdered a soldier, and killed all our mums"
Paul: SIMPLY, HAVING, A WONDERFULCHRISTMASTIME! SIMPLY, HAVING, A WONDERFULCHRISTMASTIME!!!!
