Yes, the time has come for my 4 hour trek back to Binghamton, New York. Surprisingly, I will be heading into my Junior year which most definitely backs the concept that life goes by as fast as Usain Bolt can run the 100 meter. You know you like that running reference. Anyway, sticking with the theme of getting back, I thought what would be a better song to profile today than The Beatle’s road classic, “Get Back”
I do admit I need to change some lyrics so bear with me here. Jojo is now Matthew. I left my home in Jericho, New York for some Binghamton snowy grass. Okay, the rhythm was thrown a little bit but I think I established the point. “Get Back,” was written by the Lennon/McCartney writing duo but was mainly a McCartney song. The Beatles released it as a single (B Side was “Don’t Let me Down,” which can also be a good song for parents to sing to their students who are going back to school. Man, Julie Taymor’s job in directing “Across The Universe,” was not too hard. I have already themed two songs for a scene about going to College. Forget about journalism, I am going to be a director.) Well, that was a large sidenote that was insulting to directors everywhere. I apologize your job is hard and I would most likely fail at doing it. But, if you need a music coordinator please give me a ring.
We need a good Did you know to get us back on track. Did you know that The Beatle’s released the single “Get Back,” in April of 1969 under the name of The Beatles with Billy Preston? 
This was the only Beatles’ single that was credited to another artist beside themselves. But, you know me, I love to reach back. This is actually a slight bit false. Tony Sheridan, the English Rock n’ Roll singer-songwriter cut a track with The Beatles’ on his single, “My Bonnie,” which was issued in the UK in 1962. Beatles’ trivia is always interesting.
