Good Day Sunshine

starrysunshine - because it IS about drugs! No one is trying to make it so, it just is. The whole Revolver album is. Those more educated, who know about Revolver, especially, can tell you it is mostly about drugs. I'm not trying to be demeaning, here. Why are people so adamant to say it's NOT about drugs? Cause they want it to fit their perception, their world-view. They are innocent to the meaning, love the song, and don't want it to possibly be about drugs since they've always assigned more fun, happy, innocent meanings. I understand that. But, it IS about LSD. All of the Beatles had been experimenting at that time - first with pot, then on to heavier things. I am sorry, but most of Revolver is devoted to drugs. And, I don't want it to be about drugs - when I was in college, I really liked this song, having no idea what it was about. As I learned more about the Beatles and their music I learned just how not-so-innocent many of their happy, fun songs were. Think about this - the Beatles just couldn't come out and openly write about drugs, just like most artists. You have to be cryptic and disguise the meaning to get away with it, especially in 1966. "Rock Around the Clock" is not about dancing!
