:clapping: I love trivia......let's see if I have some wild guesses.

7. I think it was because of the word "Crap."

8. Hello, I Love You (sidewalk crouches at her feet, like a dog that begs for something sweet...)

And.....the others I'm not 100% positive on, so I hate to guess, although I *think* #5 is Bob Dylan?

Good job, Peach...2 out of 3 . Yes, it was Bob Dylan who caused all the problems in the Beatles life (except for the ones Otis caused LOL!! ) and "Hello, I love you" is the correct song.

Actually, the thing with Kodachrome is that the British airwaves wouldn't allow advertising of name brands or something like that...lemme check my source here... Ah..."BBC prohibits commercial airing of songs that mention products with brand names". So there ya go.!

I'll put up the rest of the answers tomorrow, since nobody else is taking any stabs at these .

:bonk: Aw nuts....... I should have known it wasn't because of the word crap. Those liberal Brits, and all!

Don't post the answers yet!!! I think Ringo was the first grandfather!!!!!!! And The Tornadoes were the first Brit group to hit #1 here with "Telstar," right? The rest I have absolutely no clue on!
