 | | optimal play: <ljfyffe: this is not reading too much into the lyrics because the lyrics themselves must be carefully examined ...> "Personally, I think you can put any interpretation you want on anything, but when someone suggests that ‘Can't Buy Me Love’ is about a prostitute, I draw the line. That's going too far." - Paul McCartney, 1966
I expect Paul might also put some limits on interpretations of their other songs as well :) |

| Feb-28-15 | | ljfyffe: <MF>Never realized Lennon mentioned my name, but thanks for letting me know...by the way, it was John who said Anne Murray's was the best cover he'd heard. I can't agree that Lennon and McCartney were just Liverpool bums writing a bunch of nonsense without taking a minute to think about what they were doing, or if their music would last, as you seem to suggest.I repeat they became master craftsman because
they worked hard on their lyrics together to make themselves revelant to audiences who were tired of being treated as if they were all idiots; listeners who no longer wanted to be sung down to as if they were. Paul and John's lyrics show they understood that. To examine their lyrics with that in mind, without putting words in their mouths, is not over doing it. |

I do like you ljyffe, I'm just saying that you're looking for something that can't be found. Anyways, you interpret Lennon and McCartney lyrics how you want, I'm just saying that I don't agree with you. |

across the Universe/Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my opened mind/Possessing and caressing me../Nothing's going to change my world>
Except the Beatles .... |

"Knock On Wood" still rocks. Today's youth don't know what they missed. |

| | OBIT: <technical draw on the Disco meets Bad Beatles Covers:> No, not as bad as you might think, although I suppose that was also my reaction after my recent colonoscopy. I'd imagine the purists cringle when they hear a song like "Hey Jude" or "Eleanor Rigby" done to a disco beat, but screw 'em. I think it does say something about the versatility of "Hey Jude" that it can be sung in so many "eccentric" ways. (I'll refrain from using the word "bad" here.) The song can be sung disco style, or Bing Crosby can perform it with his signature "buh buh boo"s, and it still doesn't sound all that ridiculous. Hell, the song probably still wouldn't sound that bad if it was done with a Latin beat and had Tiny Tim doing the lead vocals. Oh, wait, that's been done? Right here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-N...
Yeah, kind of catchy, actually.... |
