Answer:

Bringing more edge to their songs and comments by John Lennon

Explanation:

"Day Tripper" was a 1965 single in which some magazines thinking track is written about a prostitute. "Rubber Soul" was a pot inspired album, "Revolver" was an LSD inspired album. Press also thought track 2 of "Rubber Soul" was about a lesbian. Tracks like Tomorrow Never Knows and I Want to Tell You had an obvious drug influence. Tracks like "I'm Only Sleeping" and "Tomorrow Never Knows" having the first songs that featured anything that played backwards, tape loops, and studio effects. Even before Revolver, "Paperback Writer" uses an innovative rock riff and a very innovative echo at the end of a verse. It's B-Side "Rain" was the first song to feature backwards vocal. Before Revolver, John Lennon made an infamous comment saying "We're bigger than Jesus", which sparked controversy in America, with Radio Stations hosting Beatle burnings and such things. "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" was another album inspired by Acid, with "A Day in the Life" and "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds" being banned from radio play. "Magical Mystery Tour" had "I Am the Walrus" banned from airplay, and once again, every song off Mystery Tour was in some way inspired by Acid.

<em>"The BEATLES" </em>otherwise known as the "White Album" introduced a new genre; Heavy Metal. "Yer Blues" having lyric like "I'm lonely, wanna die", "Piggies" being about Police, "Back in the U.S.S.R" being written during the Cold War era, "Happiness is a Warm Gun" well that one explains itself, "Why Don't We Do It In the Road?" being literally what it sounds like, yet only using minimal instruments.

"Yellow Submarine" having "Only a Northern Song", an attack on their signed label named Northern Songs Ltd. Also, Side 2 had George Martin's film score, Tracks 1 and 6 are repeats, so fans were buying a full new album for only 4 songs

"Abbey Road" having a song about a kid killing people, "I Want You (She's So Heavy)" being a start of Doom Metal, and the excellent Medley on Side Two

"Let it Be" was recorded before Abbey Road, there is controversy on which album should be first.

In many ways, the Beatles are very controversial, but always the best.

Describe how the english colonists differed from the dutch and the french in their interactions with native americans.
Paraphin [41]
<span>English, Dutch and French contact with the natives was inevitable. However, each group treated natives differently. The English were concerned with placement of its excess population and in securing the flow of raw materials back to the homeland. They expected the colonists to bolster England’s Economy with demands for manufactured goods. In order for them to meet these goals, the colonists were encouraged to make permanent agricultural settlements. This created a conflict between the English and the Natives since the lands they were colonizing where already inhabited. The English considered the Natives to be primitive and inferior themselves so they tried to enslave or eradicate the natives. On the other hand, the French were more concerned with controlling trade routes with furs being the driving force. They and the Native held a good relationship. Thus, French came to America mainly for the fur trade which the Natives was already doing. So instead of being competitors over living space they were partners in trade. They acknowledged that there were many things that the Natives knew better than they did. They treated the natives as equal partners to help bolster trade. </span>
