    A hilarious album with some amazing music to boot. Not a song on this album is bad which is a awesome surprise. When I first listened to this i had no idea what to expect. I only bought it because I'm a giant fan of the Beatles and I saw the similarities between the two. I was pleasantly surprised listening to this album because I wasn't expecting much from it. Let's Be Natural is unironically one of the most beautiful songs I've ever listened to. I haven't seen the movie yet but after listening to the soundtrack I definitely plan to! If you like the Beatles then you'll definitely enjoy this album.
