@simonmoon,

Best song about the Beatles break up?

Contemporary accounts did suggest that McCartney was responsible for the break up - if that actually was Paul McCartney of course.

Of course nowadays we all know it was down to Yoko.
So you decide to make incisions at your home while you're alone, all alone

But you're no tailor, you're no surgeon, none of your cuts go very straight
Every new layer you uncover reveals something else you hate
And then you cracked your head, and broke some bones
And when you glued them back together you found out you did it wrong

Culture Club - It’s a Miracle

Dance with the counterfeit
The plastic smiles and micro heat
I’ll meet you there, I’ll meet you there

Run to the edge of town
Where Hollywood lay its footprints down
Monroe was there but do you really care

It’s a miracle
It’s a miracle
It’s a miracle

It’s a miracle
It’s a miracle
It’s a miracle

And dreams are made of emotion

Malcolm McLaren - Soweto

All the men shall Boogie and Bark
Never be afraid of the Dark
I’d rather trust in the heart of a killer

Than believe all the lies in a scholar’s brain

I am strange and I have been reckless

But I’ve never been insane
