I made that image about 10 years ago. I don't even have a copy of it anymore (although it could be done a lot better now with technical advancements), although it's amusing that the new Rutles Bluray cover has taken the same idea and run with it!

Lennons Love and Real Love combined. The lyric "i dont know why" has the same melody as "love is real, real is love"

Sound Like A Monkees song: it's nice to be with you

If The Beatles had recorded this it would have been massive! A fine and wonderful song in its own right! Rutles forever!!!

Also there's something of Paul McCartney's "Beautiful Day" from the Flaming Pie album in the "looking back..." section. It really feels like a 1970s Lennon song augmented with 1990s McCartney - very clever I think.

I love this song. It's not so much a parody as an affectionate look back at the Beatles and the 1960s in general. I actually think it's better than Free as a Bird and Real Love.

This song just on its own is excellent. Not a beatles parody, or any parody for that matter.

Reminds me of 'watching the wheels' and something from Abbey Road... "You've just got to change the locks on your heart" - I think that's brilliant!

Thank Rod that Leggy Mount-Baton was hopping around Liverpool and discovered The Rutles! He knew that he saw something more than their trousers and soon the whole world did too.

Great pastiche, great imitation, great song, and great lyrics. Although it's mainly Free as a Bird, I can recognize in the middle part some Real Love elements, and the end of the middle part is really similar to Because.

@Veeno00 That is an amazing lyric. Parody or not, this is genius.

This is one of my favourite songs from the Archeology album.

Battle Of Trenton

The artist made a mistake in his Anthology poster parody. In the center you see the words Sea Stadium. The Rutles played at "Che Stadium" named for famous Cuban guerila leader Che Stadium. The songs is quite neat though. It sounds like Julian Lennon.
