The Beatles And Their Fans: Some Interesting Facts That Lizzie Bravo, A Brazilian Fan Who Lived The Beatlemania

The Beatles and their fans: Some interesting facts that Lizzie Bravo, a brazilian fan who lived the beatlemania in 1967/1968, said. I translated from the interview that Lizzie gave to "Pitadas Do Sal" in 2021. May Lizzie rest in peace. ♡

Paul McCartney lived near Abbey Road so he walked around and sometimes barefoot.

The Beatles called their fans "luv" and always said hello/goodbye even if they were in the car.

When Lizzie was invited to record Across The Universe with the band, Paul McCartney asked her to sing something "in brazilian" but she was so nervous that she couldn't.

It was hard to distract John Lennon and Paul McCartney when they were together. They talked a lot in private, laughed a lot, and even finished each other's sentences. "They lived in their own bubble" Lizzie about Lennon-McCartney.

When Lizzie met John Lennon for the first time (her favorite beatle), she started crying and Mal Evans hugged her and gave her a chocolate.

George Harrison wrote Apple Scruffs for specific fans, not for all the fans who stayed in the studios.

George Harrison also wrote letters to these 3 fans in particular, thanking them for their support especially when he was starting his solo career.

Once, John Lennon was leaving Paul McCartney's house and when he said goodbye to Lizzie, who was waiting for him outside, she said "I love you" spontaneously. John smiled and waved.

Lizzie said they never seemed as mad as people sounded.

The fans did a marathon every day: They ran to Abbey Road, saw The Beatles and in the end of the afternoon they ran to Paul McCartney's house to see John Lennon go there - something he did a lot.

Sometimes they arrived together in the studio in the same car.

There were 20 or 30 fans waiting to see them everyday! It depended on which beatle would arrive before or after.

Lizzie said that The Beatles were very humble, kind and didn't even seem like the renowned band they were (and are!).

“George was younger, the little one. He was very sweet, with his little tooth and the cocky songs he was singing. He was really cute, and was an essential part of the team. When all of them were harmonising together was incredible!”

— Klaus Voormann, “Hamburg Days” (1999)

“George Was Younger, The Little One. He Was Very Sweet, With His Little Tooth And The Cocky Songs He

“When he has that funny grin on his face, so that his little Dracula-tooth was showing — that was it! There he was, this little cocky underage boy singing cocky little songs like “C[‘mon] every body” or Joe Brown’s “I’m [Hen]ery the eight[h], I am” and then he played his little guitar solos, unmistakable George, nearly breaking his fingers on this cheap guitar, he hated so much. He couldn’t wait to earn enough money, to at long last be able to buy an expensive guitar. So when he got his first Grets[c]h, he proudly showed it to everybody. 1971 George let me have this Guitar. I loved it. Finally I had to give it back to him, which I think is perfectly right. He gave me a beautiful tel[e]caster as a replacement. Ain’t that great?”

— Klaus Voormann, “Hamburg Days” (1999)

“…George grinned his cheeky, crooked boyish grin beneath his thick brown head of hair. He was irresistible, and not just for the girls.”

— Klaus Voormann, on the first time he saw The Beatles; translated from “Warum spielst du Imagine nicht auf dem weißen Klavier, John?” (2003)

“Jeff Lynne, George Harrison, Eric Clapton And Elton John At A Worcester Match To Watch Ian Botham.

“Jeff Lynne, George Harrison, Eric Clapton and Elton John at a Worcester match to watch Ian Botham. Photo: Graham Morris” - The Times, 2018

“[George is] 44 now, his stubble-beard shows flecks of gray, and after George Harrison laughs — which he does often — the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes don’t completely uncrinkle. ‘I think, in one way, it’s good getting old,’ says Harrison. ‘When you do things when you’re young, you just don’t think about it. You’re crazy, like the Beatles. We were crazy, but if you went on being like that, you’d be put away. So there’s a time to mellow out.’ He is mellow enough, nowadays, to view the past with a pleasant nostalgia and the future with bemused curiosity. 'You know, we’re all going to be 60 now,’ he says of the next major chronological hurdle facing his friends. 'In another 20 years, I’m going to be 64’ — a thought that sets him to singing, just under his breath, the chorus to the Beatles hit When I’m Sixty-Four. […] [E]asing into middle age, he savors 'hanging out with some of my friends, just having dinner and a bottle of wine.’ And for a wild time, there’s always… cricket?! 'Eric and Elton, they’re really into it,’ says Harrison. 'Now, I’ve hated cricket all my life. But they’ve got me going to the matches in this nice little English town, drinking beer, laughing. All the guys on the album are getting even nicer now, the older they get. I think we’ve all had similar times and experiences, and because of that, in each other’s company, we can just make fun and have a real laugh.’ All things considered, he says, 'you can’t ask for much more than that, really.’” - People, 19 Oct 1987 (x)
