It looks like they synchronized Rosemary's Baby with The Wizard of Oz. This is probably one reason The Beatles decided to use Rosemary's Baby as a synchronization film for their albums, at least as early on as The White Album. The Beatles synchronized albums with The Wizard of Oz all through their career (Please Please Me, Beatles For Sale, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, and Abbey Road confirmed so far). Of course Rosemary's Baby was synchronized with The Beatles entire record album catalog, probably because The Beatles used The Wizard of Oz for their albums. I'd be almost willing to bet that the three Wizard of Oz start points the Beatles used were used in creating Rosemary's Baby.
Pink Floyd also used both movies for The Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall, and indications that the movies were synchronized stem from The Dark Side of the Moon synchronization, where the song entitled Money begins as a dream begins in both movies, dreams which begin immediately after injurious encounters with windows.
The Cure also used both movies, plus Excalibur, for their album entitled Pornography, which leads me to believe that The Beatles and Pink Floyd may have used at least one other movie as synchronization material for the creation of their record albums. |

You are wrong on all points! And the reason why is that The Beatles' releases in the United States were hindered for over a year by EMI's American subsidiary, Capitol Records, who initially declined to issue Beatles material, including their first three singles. Concurrent negotiations with the independent US labels Vee Jay and Swan led to the eventual release of the singles, but legal issues with royalties and publishing rights proved an obstacle to the successful marketing of the group in the US. Capitol began to issue the material in December 1963, exercising complete control over format, they compiled distinct US albums from the band's recordings and issued songs of their choosing as singles. American chart success began after Epstein arranged for a $40,000 US marketing campaign and secured the support of disk jockey Carrol James, who first played the band's records in mid-December 1963, initiating their music's spread across US radio. This caused an increase in demand, leading Capitol to rush-release "I Want to Hold Your Hand" later that month. Released 26 December 1963, "I Want to Hold Your Hand" sold a million copies in the US by 10 January 1964, and by 16 January the single was a number one hit in the States, with the band's previously scheduled debut there just weeks away. The Beatles arrive at John F. Kennedy International Airport, 7 February 1964. The Beatles left the United Kingdom on 7 February 1964, with an estimated four thousand fans gathered at Heathrow, waving and screaming as the aircraft took off. At New York's John F. Kennedy Airport they were greeted by another uproarious crowd estimated at three thousand people. They gave their first live US television performance two days later on The Ed Sullivan Show, watched by approximately 73 million viewers in over 23 million households,or 34 percent of the American population, and according to the Nielsen rating service, it was "the largest audience that had ever been recorded for an American television program." The next morning critical consensus in the US was generally against the group, but a day later their first US concert saw Beatlemania erupt at Washington Coliseum. Back in New York the following day, they met with another strong reception during their two shows at Carnegie Hall.[82] The band then flew to Florida and appeared on the weekly Ed Sullivan Show a second time, before another 70 million viewers, before returning to the UK on 22 February.
As you can see, there is no way they could have done what you are claiming, I challenge you to find CREDIBLE SOURCES ( even A SOURCE will help) to back up your ludicrous statements. And saying you've "read alot" means ing . |

Dear Sir/Madam,
LOOK, I do not have the appropriate calm state of mind to make time to READ those numerous upon numerous small-print details, much less memorize them. I started my OWN Wikipedia page to hopefully counter that and better the people's General Understand of the Noble Gentleman that he is. HE SPENT HOURS, recalling MEMORY after MEMORY to type up the HONEST-TO-GOD TRUTH. HE DOES NOT CARE about the erroneous listings or false information listed on other pages; HE ONLY WISHES TO TELL THE TRUTH AND SPREAD IT ON THE INTERNET. |

| Apparently he thinks pasting Wikipedia excerpts is witty and clever, but he's about as amusing as Catherine Tate. |

| Did you know that if you smoke loads of weed, queue up all of the Catherine Tate clip on Youtube and then play them in the order they appear, they synchronise flawlessly with the Goa Mix? Don't worry about the few frantic seconds spent switching to the next video, Oakenfold accounted for them when he recorded the mix in 1994. |

Loads of weed being the most important ingredient!
For some reason this thread reminded me of this:

Thanks but no thanks. I do not wish to give Catherine Tate media any traffic. |
