Help!


Help!




I need somebody




Help!




Not just anybody




Help!




You know I need someone




Help!




When I was younger




So much younger than today




I never needed anybody's help in any way




But now these days are gone




I'm not so self assured




Now I find I've changed my mind




And opened up the doors




Help me if you can, I'm feeling down




And I do appreciate you being 'round




Help me get my feet back on the ground




Won't you please, please help me?




And now my life has changed in oh so many ways




My independence seems to vanish in the haze




But every now and then I feel so insecure




I know that I just need you like I've never done before




Help me if you can, I'm feeling down




And I do appreciate you being 'round




Help me get my feet back on the ground




Won't you please, please help me?




When I was younger




So much younger than today




I never needed anybody's help in any way




But now these days are gone




I'm not so self assured




Now I find I've changed my mind




And opened up the doors




Help me if you can, I'm feeling down




And I do appreciate you being 'round




Help me get my feet back on the ground




Won't you please, please help me?




Help (me)




Help (me)




Oooooh

(Happy 80th birthday, John!)

Is this a tribute to the terrorists, known as the Beatles, who were just sent to the U.S. for trial?

Or is it John Lennon's birthday?

Wow this was intense. Nice work!

That was fantastic! I played the song while I went through your post.

Awesome song. Super awesome post. Can't begin to imagine the amount of time you invested in this post... but it was worth every minute to your readers.

I'm not usually drawn to music posts, but this was really well done!

Bravo! Encore!

Right on, Nick! I sang along all the through. The card choices were perfect. Strawberry made me chuckle. I love me some Beatles. Hard to believe he'd be 80 years old. I remember the night he was murdered, the news breaking on the television. How the years roll on...

Matt said...

That was fantastic! I was totally singing along in my head!

GTT said...

Thanks. That was very funny. Nice card choices- I'd never seen a lot of those cards. The Strawberry is perfect.

GCA said...

That was great! Nicely executed.

That. Was. Awesome. Absolute masterpiece Nick. Well done!

Of all the cards you used for this (and there are some really nice ones) the Sean Doolittle jumps out at me. I could never find an Independence Day parallel of a team that wears matching colors and has a player I like at an affordable price. That one checks all the boxes.
