Who is your favorite Beatle?

Ringo's a survivor. He was not expected to survive the illnesses he had as a child. Now he's 81 and has outlived 2 of his younger bandmates.

Ringo always ends his speeches with " peace and love" and I would think "whatever". But now when I look at the world it is refreshing to hear that phrase with everything going on.

God bless you Ringo, There will never be another you.

I wish the Beatles could have gone on forever. There will never be another band like them. Thank you John, Paul, George, and Ringo for all the beautiful and cutting-edge music you gave us.

I was lucky to have lived it, I was 9 yrs old when the Beatles were on Ed Sullivan show, my bedtime was 8:00p mom let me and my bros stay up late to watch it. It was a real treat. and to follow them and the rest of the generation Just don't have words to describe it.

The Beatles had a closer "brother" relationship than a lot blood related brothers.

The best thing about being a Beatles fan? I was 13 in 1963 so I more or less grew up with them. Their music, be it together or individually, is the tapestry of my life.

OMG - That was so cool to hear how much they loved, support and the mutual respect. "All you need is love!"

Octopus' Garden is one of my favorite Beatles songs because Ringo has very underrated singing talents. And he even started a fundraiser on IG to clean the oceans for his "friends the octopuses." God speed man

I hate to hear people disparage Ringo's status a a drummer... The guy came up with so many original, instantly recognizable drum parts, and was the heart of the greatest band of all time.

I loved each Beattle for their own uniqueness.Its really hard to play favorites. In my life I loved them all.

I love that this video was made about Ringo. It’s true. It was really Paul, George, and John who really caught everyone’s eyes including mine. I always thought that Ringo was just a drummer and that’s it. Now watching this I feel more for him and understand that he really did make a big difference in the Beatles.

We are so fortunate as Beatle fans to have such great ambassadors to the legacy of The Beatles. They are keeping the dream alive!

Hey all you brilliant musicologists !! I'm a pro Drummer with 30+ years of experience and skills from Death metal to afro-cubain grooves and all in between.... That said, Ringo is a Drummer with truly good times and creativity that combine swing toms fills in a more mainstream musical situation. With such strong melody's, a more busy or complex rhythms wouldn't serve the songs. Sometimes it's not what you do but what you no do that's is important. Humility and tasty choices serves what became The Beatles.

As a drummer I absolutely love Ringo. I play beatles songs all the time. Much respect.

Ringo - my favourite Beatle, and the most human of the band.

The sign of true brotherhood is being able to forgive and move forward after arguments and problems.

I saw The Beatles on Swedish TV 30th October 1963. The host began by introducing Ringo and the first song they played was "She Loves You"!

Ringo and Paul have blessed us all

Show up, be real every day, make honest effort, don't slag others. I think Ringo was raised right & came up with his own true honest self as time went on. I think the universe digs this guy!

Ringo and George were very close friends right up until George passed.

In the early 70's Ringo was on the radio every bit as much (or more) as Paul and John, and more than George. Photograph, The No No Song, Back Off Boogaloo, You're Sixteen and It Don't Come Easy...

Paul is 79 Ringo 81 ..Look at them especially Ringo he looks amazing. They’ve been buddies around 60 yrs fantastic

It’s great seeing Paul and Ringo together!

Great drummer, he swings and has personality.. Ringo is the ultimate Hook drummer

Ringo, never to be forgotten. Beatles never die. Most versatile pop music ever. 🎉

The “Carry That Weight” solo… according to Ringo, he took the drum solo from Iron Butterfly’s In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida and adapted those ideas.

I absolutely love Paul and Ringo. They have so much history together. They are brothers and will continue to be brothers forever. The Beatles played a huge part in the lives of so many people, particularly, those growing up in the 1960s. Thank you Paul, Ringo, George and John, for the wonderful memories and of course, the amazing music.

Paul also pitched in on Ringo's #1 hit, "You're Sixteen".

It's funny how your perspectives change as you experience Life. For nearly my first 20 years as a musician I played lead and rhythm guitar and sang in all my bands. When I switched to bass in a couple of bands in the 80s I was listening to Sgt. Pepper and an epiphany smacked me. How could I have listened to the record all those years and never realized that it is a _Bass Player's_ album!?!? That's not to say that the entire band was not magic on every song or that Paul walked over anyone else in the mix. Listening to the incredible way he uses his instrument to weave everything else into the amazing tapestry it is gives me a new appreciation of this classic.

I love how comfortable Ringo is with his place in the band. He once introduced himself as "The least famous Beatle."

The Beatles will still be popular 1,000 years from now.

They're old and all their glory is years and years behind them. BUT I still get all giddy and ramped up when I see them together. THE BEATLES!

Totally amazing that Paul McCartney didn't get inducted in the R&R Hall of Fame until 5 YEARS after John Lennon.... he should have been the first one.

say "ringo" and i smile. it's that special happy sad magic surrounding ringo.

The Beatles as a group and as four friends performing together, gave the world a special magic that will never end or be topped in our hearts.

Ringo Starr was in a band that was more famous than the Beatles back then, Paul, John, and George recognize he was the missing piece and stole him from the other band.

I played lead and rhythm guitar for many years... To get into a band I had to play bass. I thought easy... it took me a while to even like it Bass players are always taken for granted.. but to do it well, you and the drummer are the backbone of the band. I can’t even recall how any times I could look back at my drummer and knew were in sync..bass players motto .. stay in tune and keep the beat.

I grew up through childhood listening to The Beatles. They are why I picked up a guitar in 1968 and never put it down since. I'm 60 now, and have played professionally until the last 5 years, when I gave it all to Jesus and now a worship leader. You could almost say The Beatles led me to the Lord. The Fab 4 will always be my favorite band ever.

The drums on carry that weight are astonishing. Just perfection. And then you can hear the vibe it created.

Paul and Ringo reunited musically way before the 1990's. Ringo played on Paul's "Tug of War" and "Pipes of Peace" albums in the early 80's and Ringo acted in Paul's film "Give My Regards to Broad Street" as well as played on the soundtrack.

Ringo was my favorite Beatle. I have always had a passion for the underappreciated. Great video.

Ringo has been a class act, for a long, long time.

I love both remaining Beatles.

I am so grateful to have witnessed The Beatles from the very start hearing I Want To Hold Your Hand on AM radio back in November 1963. Ringo always played the fire out of the drums!

It's a four way tie for my favorite Beatle. Ringo's enthusiasm and charisma is infectious.

Every song Ringo sang, wrote was a winner. Photograph was such a somber, punch.in.thr gut kinda tune and Ringo Shined with his unique style.

Ringo is fantastic. Take Tomorrow never knows. He really carries that song.

This is a very nice article about these two great artists and performers, Paul and Ringo.. I want to thank you very much for putting it together. It's a lonely thing when you don't have your other brothers with you, as is their absence, John and George. It's good to hear that the two are together, working together. It reunites the world, in a sense. Thank you.

The music of The Beatles is the first music that I can clearly remember. My brother was (and still is a huge fan) and he made a huge fan out of me, his baby brother. "Brothers fight sometimes." Yup. My brother and I had a few doozies in our day, but you know what got us back together? Sitting down and listening to The Beatles. How can you stay mad at each other when you're both singing and playing along to great song? Politicians, please take note.

Although between Paul and Ringo left the band, They're staying with good relationship. Other bands do not do so. They 're alone each after disband. Such a point of view Paul and Ringo, they're shown an example to everyone.

Ringo thinks the other three are close so he goes to John and John says, "I thought it was you three!" Then he goes to Paul and Paul says, "I thought it was you three!" And so we learn by implication that George Harrison was the glue that held the band together.

Paul and Ringo were always my favourite Beatles. From the time I was a child. That they are the two left amonst us seems a perverse sort of serendipity. But I thank what ever Universal power that deems it so. Long may they live in excellent health. And RIP to John and George, the two other and *essential* corners of the square.

Ringo came up with the perfect parts for each song. Other drummers would have overplayed and detracted from the song.(imagine keath moon playing with the Beatles). You don't have to play paradittles or drum rolls unless you're in a marching band.

the bass and the drums are always connected with each other. I played bass in a band for 28 years and I was always tight with the drummer(s).

George Harrison- (All things must pass) is my most treasured album.

I love them both and will always love the music. A band ahead of their time, The Beatles transitioned music and fashion through the 60’s and innovating new sounds and great songwriting..

Ringo was the Beat at the Beatles..... and he was a Starr.

I have a feeling that Ringo’s gonna be the last one

What blessing to have shared the world with these two Gents and their departed Brothers.

The Beatles changed music, period! All four were gifted but the fact that they all managed to be in the same little band... An incredible bit of luck for the world! It's also worth noting the influence and importance of Brian Epstein and George Martin on the Beatles. Those two polished and enhanced the developing band into the legend we remember today. I've listened to the Beatles since I was a kid in the 60's and now, my daughter is a second generation fan too. People will be listening to and analyzing their music for years to come just like Mozart, Beethoven, and other great composers.

I remember being 3 years old and I was in my older brother's bedroom. He had an LP of Revolver where there was a group photo of the Beatles on the back cover. All 4 of them were wearing sunglasses and I kept asking my brother which one was Ringo. I don't know why I was fascinated by Ringo but there's something about him that's friendly and children sense that. Ringo is criminally underrated as a drummer. When Mark Lewisohn was researching his book he listened to every recording The Beatles made while they were togeher. He read all the logs from the recording sessions at Abbey Road Studios. You know how a band will stop a song because someone made a mistake? According to Lewisohn, Ringo was only responsible for "less than a dozen" mistakes in a span of 8 years. Less than a dozen can be anywhere from 1 to 11. If it was 11, it means that for 5 years Ringo averaged 1 mistake per year and for 3 years he averaged 2 a year. Think about that. I've also read that Ringo's tempos were so exact that George Martin could easily piece together multiple takes of the same song. And when thousands of screaming girls made it impossible for The Beatles to hear themselves, Ringo would read Paul and John's lips to figure out what he should be playing. Oh, and when The Beatles started recording "Hey Jude", Ringo went to the bathroom as Paul sang the opening. Then Ringo quietly tip-toed to his drum kit, sat down and started playing exactly when he was supposed to without coming in too early or too late. On top of all that, the guy could make a club filled with people want to move. He came up with the drum parts on countless top selling LPs and singles. And he came up with perfect drum parts in all sorts of styles and tempos and made some of the most innovative and experimental music ever recorded. Some really stupid people think an undeserving Ringo won the lottery when he joined The Beatles but the other Beatles were lucky to find him.

I was obsessed by Ringo after I watched Yellow Submarine cartoon when i was 4, 20 years ago! I wouldn’t have know the beatles if it wasnt for my dad’s listening their songs all the time

I saw Ringo live in concert I loved it He is great Ringo Star and his all star band !!

The Beatles were a contentious bunch of musical geniuses. Each particular in their own way, a wonder they didn't commit homicide. They were precursors of punk and metal, each willing to push and kill. "Come Together" a case in point. Sing any refrain, then Pauls bassline.

Ringo was frankly, underrated as a rock drummer. He was fantastic in reality. A perfect fit.

Paul and Ringo are the most incredible performer

Extremely informative! I'm a pretty big Beatles fan and historian, and there was more that I didn't know, then did know, in this presentation. I wouldn't go to see Ringo or Paul as solo artists, but just like they both said in the video, when the two of them play together, it's magic! And THAT, if I ever had the chance, is a show I would go to see!

The studio techs who themselves worked tirelessly on Beatles records said Ringo worked harder than anyone else in the band. He was often the first there and last to leave.

Ringo’s treatment by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame was mirrored by that of his friend Todd Rundgren. The HOF sometimes needs to be EMBARRASSED before they let someone in. Paul’s actions to get Ringo in speak volumes about the induction process. Only the “Cool Kids” get in 🙄

Ever listen to the sessions where the Beatles were working out their tunes, changing things as they went, etc.? Ringo was on top of everything. "Never missed a beat," so to speak.

Yeah, Ringo is lovable, that’s for sure and he just keeps on.

RIP JOHN❤️ RIP GEORGE❤️ LONG LIVE PAUL❤️ LONG LIVE RINGO ❤️

They changed my world music became my everything what a time it was I was blessed to grow up those years

I mean, not every drummer can work it out with Paul and the other two, Ringo is truly a gift

So glad they were willing to reconcile their creativity to make us, fans happy 😊

My favourite Beatle is ranked as follows: (1) Si Paul McCartney, (2) Sir Ringo Starr, (3) George Harrison. There are only 2 Bass Players for me in this world. Sir Paul McCartney (Beatles) and (2) Randy Meisner (The Eagles). There is no other Bassist who can hold a candle to them. I was privileged to see the Beatles perform at Festival Hall Melbourne in 1964. We were four rows back from the stage and I could not hear a bloody thing. The girls were going mental. Thank you for the wonderful memories.

Ringo ⭐ should be President of the United States. Man, I could sleep at night 😴

If you are ever sad just listen to Beatles bloopers. It’s hard to get me to laugh at anything even when I’m in my best mood but those are top notch comedy

The world is already feels foreign after the passing of Prince, Bowie and Eddie Van Halen recently. But when Paul and Ringo go, it’ll feel like a different existence all together.

11:25 | Paul and Ringo didn't work together since 1997 ('Beautiful Night'). In 1982 they played in 'Take It Away' and also in 1984 they were together for _Give My Regards To Broad Street_ , as musicians and actors.

Ringo is a REAL musician. He loathes drum solos because so few drummers (besides him) execute them well. Most drummers are just showoffs but not Ringo. He puts the music FIRST! Like just take those drum circles you see in the park or at the beach. They're just noise man. Noice that goes on for freaking HOURS! This is the image that Starr despises. He was the perfect fit for the greatest Rock band ever.

They are strong people, it's nice to see how they brotherhood is doing great

Very touching and moving ... two of the best !

An iconic moment was the Take it Away song and video from 81/82. Paul, Ringo and George Martin together.

I loved them all. John was my favorite after they broke up. I have all of his albums.😊❤

They need eachother in each others lives

Paul and ringo definitely were the complement to John and George. John and George were hippies and experimental. Ringo and Paul were more down to earth.

Lots of people slam Ringo. The Man has $350 million dollars and Barbara Bach! I would say that's pretty darn successful!

OMG how I love them!!!

Very well done and touching tribute

Well my favorite Beatle was Ringo I always wanted to play the drums and never could it made me mad but I always loved Ringo on drums

Paul, always & forever! ❤️❤️❤️

Paul is my favorite Beatle always!❤️

Nice video it gives a bit of insight to there life long relationship as friends and brothers and business partners in alot of ways

its always weird seeing these videos from years ago remastered in hd and 4k. I remember the early 00's tube tv's. Something about seeing history through a tube tv sorta made it all seem like it was magic. Now i see it all like i'm there. I'll never get used to it.

Ringo is my favorite Beatle, I grew up with him, Carlin, and Baldwin narrating Thomas the Tank Engine and through that I discovered the Beatles He’s super down to earth, sweet, funny, a fantastic drummer, and has super underrated music albums with my favorite being Time Takes Time

Beatles forever

I’m glad this turned out how it did , Reading the thumbnail I thought it was how they hated each other and shit
