Utterly devoted Beatles fan here, from 50 years ago watching that show when I was 7.
Many artists' "interpretations" of Beatles songs are cringe-worthy, to say the least (American Idol, anyone?) but last nights selections were great. Loved "Hey Bulldog", an "obscure" Beatles track that deserves to be heard more (next tour, Sir Paul!). Even Katy Perry was good, actually singing and not shouting as she often does, and wearing clothes too. And of course Macca and his incredible band, still rocking arenas after all these years.
