Behold the 'Beatles Argument,' a phenomenal Beatles mashup that tells a funny story through John, Paul, Ringo and George's music.
The 17-song Beatles mashup explores an argument between a couple played by Tess Soltau and Ryan Melia about their infidelity towards one another. Watch as Melia begs for forgiveness by saying "I wanna hold your hand," or witness Soltau list off Melia's possible cheating partners like Lady Madonna, Julia and Elanor Rigby.
The music is nicely replicated by The Brit Pack, a New York City-based cover band. The entire video has a similar concept as the film 'Across the Universe,' in that it tells a story with Beatles' music. The video was put together by cdza, a musical comedy troupe that specializes in sketches centered around music.
