He wasn’t born when the Beatles rose to stardom but eight-year-old Micah Anton Cajili is a big fan of the band from Liverpool, England.
Micah was five when he first heard of Beatles songs from his dad’s music collection.
He instantly liked their music. His regular listening to the Beatles made Micah memorize most of the songs.
A favorite of Micah is "Help".
"I like their music. I like their instruments," Micah said.
Of the four Beatles members, song writer John Lennon is Micah’s favorite.
He even has a collection of John Lennon shirts.
He also drew two versions of John Lennon, which hangs in the family’s living room.
Micah also knows a few trivia about John Lennon and his favorite band.
"I know that John Lennon died when he was just 40 years old. He was born October 8 and died December 8, 1940. He was shot by a crazy fan," he said.
"Who’s his wife?" asked this reporter.
"His wife? Yoko Ono. That’s his second wife. His first wife was Cynthia Lennon," he answered.
Though he wasn’t born yet when the Beatles was a hit, modern technology enabled Micah and the younger generation to enjoy songs of the past that until now remain a hit.
