In the movie Sliding Doors, John Hannah suggested that everyone is born knowing the Beatles and suggested they be named “The Fetals.” So let’s test how well you really know the Beatles. Can you match the song to the album it came from?

I agree, that was too easy! Of course, being a Beatles fan, it should have been.
On another note, Sliding Doors is one of the greatest films ever…it doesn’t just mention the Beatles, it also has the quote:
“Cheer up. Remember what the Monty Python boys say.”
“‘Always look on the bright side of life?’”
“No, ‘Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition.’”

I totally agree it was too easy. You should have questions like: which album or albums featured a song that ended with a bass drum and conga line in the studio?
Which song began as a string ensemble piece played by the Beatles (and NOT professionals)?
Which songs were credited to the Beatles that only had one Beatle on them?
Those would be harder.

As an older fan, I’d suggest a quiz on picking the songs that were left off of the original British albums when they were released in the U.S. The early albums always had two songs left off, sometimes had other covers and event different names: Beatles 65, Meet The Beatles, Beatles VI. Maybe a quiz on which U.S. Beatles title most closely matches which British title. Yesterday and Today, for instance, didn’t even have a British equivalent, since it was largely made up of the missing tracks from earlier British albums.
