Always surprising me...
I watched Alice in Wonderland (CBS TV production) pretty much once a week during my childhood, along with Peter Pan (Mary Martin). My parents still to this day talk about how I watched those movies over and over without tiring. It wasn't until today that I discovered something very exciting. My favorite Beatle was IN Alice in Wonderland! I couldn't believe it! All along I was watching Ringo and had no idea. Here, catch a glimpse of those beautiful blue eyes and melt-your-heart smile in a role that seems designed for our dear Ringo.

All I've got is a photograph...
This song seems sweetly appropriate for a Beatles montage. "According to the official Concert for George website, 'Ringo Starr caught everyone with a tear in their eye with a rendition of 'Photograph', a composition he wrote with George, which seemed to sum up how everyone felt.' In this concert, Starr mentioned that the song took on a whole new meaning after the passing of Harrison. The lyrics were believed to be poignantly appropriate for this occasion, including:
Ev'ry time I see your face,
It reminds me of the places we used to go.
But all I've got is a photograph,
And I realise you're not coming back anymore.
[...]
I can't get used to living here,
While my heart is broke, my tears I cried for you.
I want you here to have and hold,
As the years go by and we grow old and grey." (Wikipedia.org)

Paul and Ringo...Forever Friends
This video from the Radio City Music Hall performance was posted on youtube. Watching it made me terribly sad that I wasn't there. However, it's nice to just see footage of such a sweet reunion.
