| The Beatles – Revolution 9 Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| Although credited to Lennon and McCartney, Revolution 9 was not written by either. Rather it is a collection of taped sounds that John and Yoko mixed together. The song begins with a small fraction of unreleased material from "I Will," followed by an EMI Studio test tape repeating the words, "Number nine," over and over again. Following this, the best way to describe the song is total pandemonium, that includes a procession of tape loops, feedback, screams, vocal overdubs, sound effects and noise. McCartney hated it, and did not want it on the album, but finally agreed with profound apprehensions, and George Martin hated it more. | |

by rhink on 04-14-2002 @ 07:59:08 AM "this song is not about LSD. it's about a picture john's son brought home that he drew of his school friend lucy. it was lucy, in the sky, with diamonds. john didn't realize it was an acronym for LSD until *after* he wrote it" Heh. Sure. I believe that. These guys were known for BSing... I've seen some videotaped interviews them where some of the comments they made were just hysterical. That line is typical of Lennon's creations. This song is all about drugs. by Jaspin Demothenese on 04-18-2002 @ 01:21:58 AM Face it. The song is about LSD. by wiseone on 04-25-2002 @ 01:30:27 AM LSD hah. ive got news for you, dumbasses. its NOT about lsd. it IS about a drawing that julian brought. home. |

| The Beatles – Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
great song A song by Paul, it came from the phrase, Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da, that means "life goes on," that Paul heard by a man named Jimmy Anonmuogharan Scott Emuakpor, a Nigerian congo player who played in a group known as Bad Manners. Paul met him in the Bag o' Nails club in Solo, London. When Paul wrote the song, Jimmy Scott was annoyed, citing that he should receive some of the financial rewards for it. McCartney responded by telling him that if he had written any part of it, he would be glad to pay him, but he didn't. Scott sued, and meanwhile, was jailed for refusing to pay support to his ex-wife. Jimmy appealed to Paul to pay his rather large past support payment, which Paul did to help him out, but on the condition that Jimmy drop his case against him over the song. Jimmy did and he and Paul came to be and remained close friends over the years until Scott's death in 1986. Paul loved this song and made many takes of it, driving the remaining three Beatles' crazy. McCartney wanted it released also as a single, but Lennon hated it and refused to let that happen. Consequently, a Scottish group known as Marmalade recorded it and had a number one hit. There is a mistake in the song where McCartney sang that "Desmond stayed at home and did his pretty face," when it should have been as the other similar line, referring to Molly. The three other Beatles liked the error, and it remained. Desmond has a barrow in the marketplace, Molly is the singer in a band, Desmond says to Molly, girl I like you face |

You know what i think? i think you should only say that some song IS about a certain thing if you know for a fact. otherwise say you THINK it is. In my opinion, this song COULD be about drugs, although i doubt it for basically the same reason Ana99 thinks it isn't about heroine. Also, it COULD be about john and yoko, although that isnt positive, and that doesn't make sense to me because where does it imply that? i suppose the part that says "She’s well acquainted with the touch of the velvet hand Like a lizard on a window pane. " could be it. also, its possible its about sex. it could also be "a sort of rock 'n' roll history" or it could be Lennon's indignation of the American firearms lobby. it all depends on how you interperit the lyrics. also i think it has something to do with the feel of the music if you listen to it. i personally dont really know, but those are what it is possibly about, in my opinion. |

| The Beatles – Don't Pass Me By Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| This song could have a 'secret' meaning referring to paul's accident and supposed death. it says "You were in a car crash and you lost your hair" and paul's hair got burnt off... could refer to that, also there are some other things but i cant tell about them, i dont know the rest's facts very well. | |

gsession1: as to "this song is the shit and if u sing this song at the top of your lungs with it and try and feel the song you'll see what im saying. " maybe you arent supposed to sing it at the top of your lungs. its a song, not a line of screams. its a really good song. its really funny, really, if you dont take it literally. i hate how they hide the meaning in frivilous words, though. ah, well, its still a great song. |
