for ringo starr's birthday, i'd like to bring up something that we don't talk about enough.

george says ringo was always THE beatle, like they'd been playing a movie and finally ringo walked in. he wasn't late, or a backup. he just wasn't in the script yet.

ringo is comfort. Image
in a band of three hot and strong personalities, ringo is a soothing balm and a steady heartbeat to his counterparts. he immediately understood the assignment.

it must be hard to come into the beatles, especially with john and paul's wordless and baffling connection. ringo struggeled with imposter syndrome and feeling left out.

no one else felt ringo was a second-class beatle. Image
the truly quiet beatle has showed himself again and again as the heartbeat of the band. the man who kept the beatles on track when they couldn't hear themselves against 17,000 healthy lungs, screaming like a 747 jet.

he really is the fucking click. happy birthday, ringo. Image
"he always wants the click track, he wants the click, and i keep saying, 'i AM the fucking click!'" -ringo starr
struggled*😑
