Johnny Drama Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 You realise that would mean three of the greatest albums ever made wouldn't have come to frution, right? Not to mention Strawberry Fields Forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Lahey Posted May 9, 2013 Author Share Posted May 9, 2013 (edited) I only like certain tracks off of those albums. I can't listen to any of them all the way through. Which takes us right back to why I started this thread in the first place. Edited May 9, 2013 by Randy Lahey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasted Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 They had so much freedom. On Let it Be Naked 20 minute studio outtake you can hear them just laughing about what they are doing. All the lyric s are like in jokes. WTF is Dig a Pony about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luciusfunk Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 It was written for his soon-to-be wife Yoko Ono, and featured a multitude of strange, seemingly nonsense phrases which were strung together in what Lennon refers to as a Bob Dylan style of lyric.

wasted Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Quite like Let it Be. Its like some random ditties and a few epics. At that point they were taking the piss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgy Zhukov Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I adore She's Leaving Home.I want to play Happiness is a Warm Gun to those who protest Gun Control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Len B'stard Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I imagine them taking it quite well to be honest, being that its a song whoose chorus at least is making light of American Gun culture and whoose author was a victim of gun crime, possibly one of the most famous victims of it in the 20th Century.

Georgy Zhukov Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I find it mocking with the sexual innuendos. Funny how Lennon is on every Right Wing's shitlist when he himself towards the end of his life was conservative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Len B'stard Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 So they say, i don't think Lennon was ever either of those things, he was just...well, a John Lennon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgy Zhukov Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Lennon's best album was ahead of him and that sack of shit killed him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Len B'stard Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Quite weird actually, when you listen to the song Attica State, about prisoners "free the prisoners jail the judges free all prisoners everywhere, all they want is truth and justice all they need is love and care" and John and Yoko are defending those lyrics on the David Frost show, arguing with audience members and they said what if it was someone who loved or your this that or the other that these criminals killed and Yoko's like they all need love, they all need forgiving...and yet to this day she maintains that she cannot forgive Chapman and wants him to remain in prison forever and ever. So yeah, life certainly changes your perspective. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKZlIhs3eEk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalsh327 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Yoko also doesn't want a Beatles fan looking to take Chapman out. She does do a Q&A every week, you should ask her the question about Attica and why she doesn't feel that Chapman deserves freedom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Len B'stard Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 It ain't none of my business man, that was her old man that got turned over y'know, i don't think i have a right to ask. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
