RINGO STARR -"Liverpool 8"Album: "Liverpool 8" 2008
Album Ringa, który ogromnie mnie zaskoczył 3 lata temu. Ostatnie wydawnictwa Sir Paula mnie nie zachwycały, czy to wydane pod jego nazwiskiem czy bandu The Firemen. Krążek Richarda Starkey'a (wiadomo, wszystkie Ryśki to fajne chłopaki) to muzyka miła dla fanów The Beatles, dużo w niej odniesień do przeszłości, od tytułu, po teksty piosenek, czego przykładem jest tekst prezentowanej piosenki (historia Ringa i The Beatles w pigułce). Całość jest ciekawa bo produkcją zajął się (pomoc przy komponowaniu także) Dave A .Stewart z Eurythmics (widoczny na klipie pan z gitarą solową). Single z tej płyty lądowały na czołowych miejscach list w Europie co nie zdarzyło się Ringowi od lat a sam album zajął bardzo wysokie miejsce na czele list nawet w USA. Tytułowa, miła dla ucha piosenka jako podróż wstecz, w czasy królowania Fab Four. Niedawny koncert Ringa w Warszawie skłonił mnie by po George'u zamieścić jako kolejny hit ex-beatlesa coś właśnie z tej płyty. Polecam i uważajcie na łezkę w oku. 
I was a sailor first, I sailed the sea
Then I got a job, in a factory
Played Butlin’s Camp with my friend, Rory
It was good for him, it was great for me
Livepool I left you, said goodbye to Madryn Street
I always followed my heart, and I never missed a beat
Destiny was calling, I just couldn’t stick around
Liverpool I left you, but I never let you down
Went to Hamburg, the red lights were on
With George and Paul, and my friend John
We rocked all night, we all looked tough
We didn’t have much, but we had enough
Livepool I left you, said ‘goodbye’ to Madryn Street
I always followed my heart, and I never missed a beat
Destiny was calling, I just couldn’t stick around
Liverpool I left you, but I never let you down
In the U.S.A, when we played Shea
We were number 1, and it was fun
When I look back, it sure was cool
For those 4 boys from Liverpool
Livepool I left you, said goodbye to Admiral Grove
I always followed my heart, so I took it on the road
Destiny was calling, I just couldn’t stick around
Liverpool I left you, but I never let you down
La la la la la la …. Liverpool …
