Beatles receiving the Order of the British Empire award, 'Member' ranking. John Lennon once criticized military membership in the order, saying: "Lots of people who complained about us receiving the MBE received theirs for heroism in the war - for killing people. We received ours for entertaining other people. I'd say we deserve ours more."

  • aw, i love this. ringo's just so damn cool. :]

  • Filming of Help! ended in May 1965; released in July. And about what John said he thought or when he said he thought... a bit into revisionist history you know... he didn't say 'no' because he didn't want to say 'no'... They were all happy - the first rockers to get it; GH is still the youngest person to receive it - at 22. When it was useful to give it back to make a point, JL did. That whole 'Working Class Hero' bit from Menlove Avenue!!! And no, they never smoked pot in the palace loo. Sorry.

  • 00:12 Ringo Starr, MBE. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

  • @moviemakerpeoples025 Ringo laughs because the guy is presenting them as "so and so, MBE"... and he finds it funny to hear his stage name with the MBE part. Later he says "It's Richard Starkey, MBE, you know, not Ringo"

  • @moviemakerpeoples025 who knows? the inner workings of ringo's mind are an enigma (especially when he's high on drugs =D)

  • @guardchik5 why did he laugh????this is the beginning of another video and i'm still SOOOO CONFUSED!
