    It was twenty years ago today,
    Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play
    They've been going in and out of style
    But they're guaranteed to raise a smile.
    So may I introduce to you
    The act you've known for all these years,
    Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.

    no contest, sorry manny

    Pink Floyd


    That was a brilliant idea by plcmts17 to do battle of the albums. The guitar one is, too, but most people don't have the knowledge of playing a guitar to know who is techically better, but still, both fun ideas.

    Through Ace's pick:

    The Beatles 30, Pink Floyd 11

    I think Roger Waters is going to call me at any second to go ahead and concede.:( :D

    "I used to be cruel to my woman
    I beat her and kept her apart from the things that she loved
    man i was mean, but i'm changing my scene
    and i'm doing the best that i can"

    She's not a girl who misses much
    Do do do do do do do do, oh yeah
    She's well acquainted with the touch of the velvet hand
    Like a lizard on a window pane

    The man in the crowd with the multicoloured mirrors
    On his hobnail boots
    Lying with his eyes while his hands are busy
    Working overtime
    A soap impression of his wife which he ate
    And donated to the National Trust

    Down
    I need a fix 'cause I'm going down
    Down to the bits that I left uptown
    I need a fix 'cause I'm going down

    Mother Superior jump the gun
    Mother Superior jump the gun
    Mother Superior jump the gun
    Mother Superior jump the gun
    Mother Superior jump the gun
    Mother Superior jump the gun

    Happiness is a warm gun (Happiness bang, bang, shoot, shoot)
    Happiness is a warm gun, mama (Happiness bang, bang, shoot, shoot)
    When I hold you in my arms (Oo-oo oh yeah)
    And I feel my finger on your trigger (Oo-oo oh yeah)
    I know no one can do me no harm (Oo-oo oh yeah)
    Because happiness is a warm gun, mama (Happiness bang, bang, shoot, shoot)
    Happiness is a warm gun, yes it is (Happiness bang, bang, shoot, shoot)
    Happiness is a warm, yes it is, gun (Happiness bang, bang, shoot, shoot)
    Well, don't you know happiness is a warm gun, mama? (Happiness is a warm gun, yeah)

    Nowhere Man

    He's a real nowhere man
    Sitting in his nowhere land
    Making all his nowhere plans for nobody

    Doesn't have a point of view
    Knows not where he's going to
    Isn't he a bit like you and me?

    Nowhere Man, please listen
    You don't know what you're missing
    Nowhere Man, the world is at your command

    He's as blind as he can be
    Just sees what he wants to see
    Nowhere Man can you see me at all?

    Nowhere Man, don't worry
    Take your time, don't hurry
    Leave it all till somebody else lends you a hand

    Doesn't have a point of view
    Knows not where he's going to
    Isn't he a bit like you and me?

    Nowhere Man, please listen
    You don't know what you're missing
    Nowhere Man, the world is at your command

    He's a real Nowhere Man
    Sitting in his nowhere land
    Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
    Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
    Making all his nowhere plans for nobody


    (Lennon/McCartney)

    One of the most infamous pictures ever - I take it that you are familiar with the story behind that pic?
