Speakeasy: Cain never got caught up in Beatlemania

“Was that a Beatles song? I forget, man. I’m trying to remember who’s the head of ‘Beki-beki-beki-beki-stan. [My staff] wishes that would go away. I loved some of their songs. But I never got caught up in Beatlemania. I was studying.”

GOP presidential hopeful Herman Cain talking to People Magazine about his feelings on the Beatles, after a video clip from his 1991 Ode to Pizza to the tune of “Imagine” recently went viral. (For the record, the track was recorded by John Lennon after the Beatles broke up). Cain’s full interview with People hits newsstands Friday.
