When I was a quite young (4 or 5) we had a radio not too unlike the one pictured above. When you turned on the power, a light would come on inside and on our model, if you turned the radio just the right way, you could see a bit through the speaker cloth.
One day the DJ announced that the next song to be played would be by the Beatles. I heard Beatles but thought "beetles" and was incredulous. Surely not? Beetles?... beetles can't play music. I immediately rushed to the radio and spent the entire song trying to look through the speaker cloth to see if I could spot little beetles playing musical instruments inside our radio.
I think it's funny that not once had I questioned my belief that tiny little people played music inside our radio but the minute the DJ said "Beatles" I became a skeptic.
