use their whole, vertically flattened bodies as swimming surfaces, which undulate through the
water as they move. Therefore, when their ancestors migrated to the seabed, they lay on one side
than on their bellies. However, this raises the problem that one eye was always looking down
into the sand and was effectively useless. In evolution this problem was solved by the lower
eye “moving” around the other side. We see this process of moving around enacted in the
development of every young bony flatfish. It starts life swimming near the surface, and is
symmetrical and vertically flattened, but then the skull starts to grow in a strange asymmetrical
twisted fashion, so that one eye, for instance the left, moves over the top of the head upwards,
an old Picasso - like vision. Incidentally, some species of 20 flatfish settle on the right side,
others on the left, and others on either side.

took the top five spots on the single chart, followed by the release of their first film.
During the 1960s, their music matured and acquired a sense of melody. The lyrics of their
songs became deeper and gained in both imagination and meaning. Their popularity continued to
grow as the Beatles turned their attention to social problems and political issues in “Nowhere
Man” and “Eleanor Rigby”. Loneliness and nostalgia come through in their ballads “Michelle”
and “Yesterday”, which fully displayed the group’s professional development and
sophistication. Lennon’s sardonic music with lyric written in the first person, and Paul
McCartney’s songs that created scenarios encouraged individuals to contribute to the character
of the music produced by the group. In addition to their music, the Beatles set a social trend that
popularized long hair, Indian music, and mod dress.
For a variety of reasons, the musicians began to drift apart, and their last concert took place in
San Francisco in 1966. The newspaper and tabloids publicized their quarrels and lawsuits, and
the much idolized group finally disbanded in 1970. However, their albums had outsold those of

groups alone, none could achieve the recognition and success that they had been to win together.
