In an octopus garden near a cave

Reasons to love Ringo Starr
even more so than John, Paulie & George


1. He's one of the reasons why The Beatles lasted as long as they did.

2. His dance moves in 'A Hard Day's Night'

3. So incredibly goofy and lovable. Ginormous schnozzle and all.

4. He played a right-hand kit his whole life despite being left-handed, and still managed to be one of the most revolutionary drummers of all time (REVOLUTIONARY, not great.)

5. He wrote Octopus Garden.



I sang Yellow Submarine for the most of the morning and I felt that I owed Mr. Starr something for lending his marvelous vocals to one of the most famous Beatles' tracks around. And here it is!
