His thing about cows sounded "cheesy," so I looked it up. He's right. Goats milk fat globules are, on average, 4.655 microns in diameter, and can be as small as 0.73 microns, while cow fat globules are an average of 8.335 microns, and can be as big as 15.75 microns. "Smaller globule sizes have more surface area exposed. Because of a larger surface area on smaller particles, they are disintegrated into smaller pieces by enzymes in the stomach which make it easier for the body to absorb it during digestion." I just learned something cool and scientific from Ringo Starr. That is a sentence I never thought I would write. 😎✌️

Everything about “Come Together”; John’s singing/VOICE, Ringo’s DRUMMING, Paul’s iconic Bassline, George’s classic minimalist solo with just the perfect TONE, John’s words/flow and delivery almost like Hip Hop in the 60s, George Martin’s production... it truly is the ultimate Beatles song where every individual member shines and the whole is greater than the sum of its parts

[@bobf.5538]

Come together was originally a faster song .Paul suggested to John about slowing it down making it a little more funky..Ringo's drums. .Paul's amazing baselines...the harmonies and wordplay...George's smooth slide...great record although one I'd pick is Don't let Me Down. A total knockout

[@chriswatson7965]

A band can only produce a song like that if they all know and trust each other really well. The music was composed organically with all members contributing equally. Naturally Lennon lead though. I think that's the main reason why Ringo likes it so much.

Something, Strawberries field, Hey Jude, Yesterday, very nice too.

[@pixiewings21_9]

Yesss! Even before he said it I had a feeling he was going to say Come Together, it's such an epic song!

[@pohkeee]

Lovely! ✌️🖖 Stay childlike my friends...it’s a wonderful tonic against the incessant drumbeat of doom! ...”..He say I know you, you know me One thing I can tell you is you got to be free...” Only love can save us now...as it is and always has been...😉

[@DaveLugo79]

Hooray for Molecules!

[@zesty9815]

4:09 Still! Yes! Ringo Starr, the only person I've seen get the right answer. Shamefully leading question: _flat_ or _sparkling?_ No, the choice is: _still_ or _carbonated?_

[@Ade_1]

If your not British well played and i tip my hat to you 🎩🇬🇧

[@mollysimmons2960]

I agree! Who does Steven think he is🤨 Natural water is Still not flat💦 all water sparkles✨ it’s the carbonation that makes it have dots+dashes But I love the questionnaire💗 & I love Mr. Colbert

[@jasonlieberman4606]

I never had a grandpa, but I'm now hereby declaring Ringo my honorary grandpa

[@jankuchel7]

I just freaking love Ringo

[@johnathandavis3693]

I hadn't listened to Abbey Road in years, dug -out the CD recently. Come Together really jumps -out in the way Ringo describes here. My opinion means little compared to Ringo, but YES...

[@nelsonthibeau2050]

How could you not want to hold his hand, such an amiable person

[@johnb.3476]

Love Ringo. His attitude and vibe is infectious.

[@kpr2]

Funny, I was just watching the John Oliver "Questionert" and my own song choice was "Across The Universe" :D

[@NediSafa]

mine was strawberry fields forever

[@petercelle1796]

Great choice. Has been my fave fab tune most of the time.

[@frankboyd.]

Ringo is the best friend we never actually met. ☮️💜🇨🇦

[@joshenyou360]

RINGO STARR, You are amazing! At 71 years old, I still remember when you came to Busch Stadium in St Louis, MO. The rain was awful. My Pop was in charge of the ST Louis Police Dept. K-9 division and had all of the dogs down there to protect you all. It was an amazing event. RINGO STARR - my one song to go to is also. COME TOGETHER. ☮

[@maryrainerson8672]

Love Ringo!!!! Love all The Beatles!!!! Saw them in concert in Minneapolis on August 21st, '65!!!! Fabulous!!!! Forever a fan of the Fab Four!!!! They are the best -- ALWAYS!!!!

[@singorexpire8892]

So did I! I didn’t see YOU there, though. We must’ve just missed each other. It was a blast, wasn’t it?!?

[@JoDee172]

AAAH... How lucky are you two?!! Why did I have to be born in 1962 instead of before WHY 😭 ... Did you guys scream the whole time? 😅

[@the_Rade]

AAAHH!!!!!!

[@mm0710]

Finally! Someone said flat to the flat or sparkling question.

[@tammystockley-loughlin7680]

I don't get wanting bubbles in water...to each their own. Positive vibes from New Hampshire and remember to be kind to each other and yourself during this pandemic and social crisis

[@kindablue1959]

He actually said "still" (because he's British)

[@Cj-gs3sc]

Ringo he had iconic attitude and so strong 💪🏼 thats why he came and change history with The Beatles

[@kylesenninger8542]

the answer is always ‘bears’... they’re just as terrifying as everything else but they ALSO climb trees

[@idsdragon8293]

And they eat you while you're still alive. Everything else kills you first.

[@jean2479]

I would say bears. If I had a bear rush at me, or whatever LOL that would be the end of me right then. I’d just fall down dead!

[@juliemackenzie1978]

That was awesome! 👍😊👏

[@paulcachia3480]

I always loved hearing and playing Come Together mostly from a bunch of their singles that was given to me! Peace and Love to one and all....

[@keetrandling4530]

Ringo is just lovely

[@johnfield1833]

Love Ringo no hangups no pretentious just does what it says on the tin.

[@lilivonshtup3808]

Of course he loved Come Together, but I think it was for the memory of when he was with his best friends/brothers recording it just as much as the song itself. Is his psychedelic halo a cymbal? ☮️💟

[@UkeCan1]

Or a symbol?

[@seanowens1006]

How does Ringo manage to look younger every time I see him

[@the_Rade]

Money

[@HowieCarson]

Cheese sandwich is the most British answer ever. Somewhere James May smiled when he heard this

[@eugenestandingbear6516]

My hero, love and peace my friend.

[@MartijnPennings]

The only correct answer to "what happens when we die" is "the ones who love us will miss us"

[@lilivonshtup3808]

Thanks, Keanu.

[@mikeharrison1868]

I'm expecting to blink out of existence. I'm expecting not to be sitting around wishing I was still alive.

[@JJJZANESVILLE2]

@@mikeharrison1868 My last breath won't be my last memory. I ain't gonna have none.

[@elvinhayes7120]

The only correct answer is "I don't know."

[@francelaferriere6106]

Dixit Keanu Reeves.

[@legacytesla]

Ringo "I got shoes" ✌️

[@kathleen4376]

How to be a cool guy at 80! My hero. What a quick wit and bright man

[@elizabethdevries8028]

Richard/Ringo is a massive sweetheart!

[@kathyfitzgerald7286]

He is so awesomely charming! And he got seriously better looking with age. Very cool dude!

[@lindasamul9058]

Yeah, my brother recently said it's funny how Paul was always considered the "cute Beatle" and now Ringo is way better looking than Paul!

[@Mas-rw6tl]

It is always great to see Ringo to make my day better. Thank-you.

[@jeffclement2979]

Looking and sounding better than ever 😎 One of my four favorite Beatles 😄

[@buzzbabyjesus]

Showing us again why we love The Beatles.

[@alrightyru]

And on that age old question... I would rather be the Beatles than the Rolling Stones
