Beatlemania and Toxic Pianos

Regardless of the fact that I probably would have been an oppressed negro- I sometimes wish that I was a 60s kid.
Why?
THE BEATLES!! (what else could it be?)
There was Jimi Hendrix, Woodstock and VW Beetles but- Nothing tops the Beatles and Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band!

This 60s band has always had huge fans (like me) throughout the years and makes me a bit sad and jealous that I wasn't there to experience their awesomness LIVE:-(
But that's not what this post is about.

And neither is this: If they weren't old and wrinkly (and sadly, dead),  I would have been a huge Beatles groupie because they were hott.

And now the point...

Mark Ronson
Panic! at the Disco

The Beatles
Spot the difference?
Not much is there...

I (almost died) when I got Mark Ronson's album Version. Mark Ronson is a jazz musician and producer that mixes his retro jazz with acts such as rapper, Wale and other artists such as Daniel Merriweather, Lily Allen, Amy Whinehouse and Robbie Williams.
My Mark Ronson favorites?
>Toxic (version revisited) feat. Tiggers
>Pretty Green feat. Santo Gold: the crazy mix of instruments that lean to a cacophonie (I probably misspelt that)

And Panic! at the Disco?
With their debut album 'I write Sins not Tragidies' they had a very electro mixed with FallOutBoy sound but in Pretty.Odd they really lean towards a very Beatles sound.
To substantiate what I am saying, Listen to the Beatles song 'I want to hold your hand' and then listen to the Panic! at the Disco song, 'Pas De Cheval'.

So I am not a 60s kid but it's not so bad, thanks to Panic!at the Disco, Mark Ronson and (slightly irrelevant)I-pods.
