I don't hear it, but I'm not a musician. Does anyone else? It it seen as sacrilege to criticise the Beatles? I love them and don't love Sir Cliff, apart from the odd song. He also criticises Elvis for being too cabaret at the end of his life (and refused to have his photo taken with him because Elvis was too fat). Fair comment but Bachelor Boy anyone?

“
Mr Nice: Sir Cliff has broken character to launch an attack on The Beatles. Sir Cliff Richard has launched an astonishing attack on The Beatles, claiming some of their music was "horrific" because it was "out of tune".
Sir Cliff, who has a reputation as pop's Mr Nice, maintained some was so off-tune it was "unbelievable" – and "unforgivable".
Later, in the interview with Q Magazine, he was quick to point out he had achieved things that The Beatles had not.”
