Beatlemania（n.）
In September [1963], the Beatles played the Royal Albert Hall in London, and in October they had top bill on "Val Parnell's Sunday Night at the Palladium" show. Fans lined up all day on Argyll Street outside the Palladium for a glimpse of the boys, a phenomenon that was unprecedented at that time. Hundreds of extra policemen were called in to deal with the crowd, and some later estimated that as many as 2,000 girls mobbed the band as they tried to enter the theater. ... All major British newspapers headlined the story the next day, and the term "Beatlemania" was coined to describe the frenzy and hysteria that fans exhibited over the Beatles. [Jacqueline Edmondson, "John Lennon: A Biography," 2010]
1963年9月，披头士在伦敦的皇家阿尔伯特音乐厅演出，10月份他们在“瓦尔·帕内尔的周日晚上在帕拉第姆”节目中担任头号嘉宾。当时，粉丝们整天在阿尔吉尔街外排队，希望一睹乐队成员的风采，这种现象在当时是前所未有的。数百名额外的警察被召来处理人群，有些人后来估计，多达2,000名女孩围攻了试图进入剧院的乐队成员。... 所有主要的英国报纸都在第二天以此为头条新闻，而“Beatlemania”这个词就此诞生，用来描述粉丝们对披头士表现出的狂热和歇斯底里的症状。[杰奎琳·埃德蒙森，《约翰·列侬传》，2010年]
