And Finally
The Beatles would have won X-Factor, says Macca
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 20 May 2010
Paul McCartney has claimed that The Beatles would have easily won ‘X-Factor’, had they had the chance as a new act. Though not if they were playing their early songs. I’m not really sure he’s understood how ‘X-Factor’ works.
Anyway, he told The Daily Record: “I think we’d have won it. Seriously. Simon Cowell and Louis Walsh would have been all over us like a wet washcloth. If you’re talking of The Beatles on ‘Love Me Do’ – there’s doubt. But if you’re talking of when we’d developed some of our better songs …we’d cream em”.
