(Nekoliko poslednjih zapisa na ovom blogu se bavi Bitlsima. Mislim da to ne treba nikoga da čudi budući da su oni i bili jedan od zaštitnih znakova tog vremena)
I 1967. godina je jedna od godina koja pripada šestoj dekadi (šezdesetim) dvadesetoga veka.Petar Popović kolumnista beogradskog BLICA u svojoj kolumni kaže sledeće:
"Možda najbolja stvar Bitlsa, snimljena davne zime 1967. u ravno 34 sata, počinje ovako: „Čitao sam današnje novine i našao vest o srećniku koji je napredovao“."
Zašto se on seća 1967. godine, a ne na primer "68 ili "66?
Pa zbog Džef Beka, nemam drugog razloga. A g-din Bek je prošle srede nastupio u Sava centru, i izveo slavnu pesmu Bitlsa „Dan u životu“.
Tekst pesme:
I read the news today oh, boy
About a lucky man who made the grade
And though the news was rather sad
Well, I just had to laugh
I saw the photograph
He blew his mind out in a car
He didn't notice that the lights had changed
A crowd of people stood and stared
They'd seen his face before
Nobody was really sure if he was from the house of lords
I saw a film today oh, boy
The english army had just won the war
A crowd of people turned away
But I just had to look
Having read the book
I'd love to turn you on.
Woke up, fell out of bed
Dragged a comb across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup
And looking up, I noticed I was late
Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke
And somebody spoke and I went into a dream
Ah
I read the news today oh, boy
Four thousand holes in blackburn, lancashire
And though the holes were rather small
They had to count them all
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the albert hall
I'd love to turn you on
