>Paul would … sort of subconsciously try and destroy a great song … usually we'd spend hours doing little detailed cleaning-ups of Paul's songs; when it came to mine … somehow this atmosphere of looseness and casualness and experimentation would creep in. Subconscious sabotage.
hmmm.......
FUCK PAUL
John songs are fucking trash.
Paul is based and can rape my dog.
Paul did nothing wrong
corr lads this is a right banger of a tune this is
mind if I put just a wee bit of granny shit in it?
>writes a granny shit crap
Fucking based Paul McCartney
ahem, right, I have an announcement to make good sirs...
The beatles suck shit, there is nothing of worth in any of their songs to be destroyed in the first place.
>>>/reddit/
whats that, ring'?
Beatles are timeless because of Paul
I wrote a song would you like to hear it?
paul's contribution added beauty, lennon's contribution added tension and complexity. together they were goat
gawn then, we're listening
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus' garden in the shade
He'd let us in, knows where we've been
In his octopus' garden in the shade
I'd ask my friends to come and see
An octopus' garden with me
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus' garden in the shade
We would be warm below the storm
In our little hideaway beneath the waves
Resting our head on the sea bed
In an octopus' garden near a cave
We would sing and dance around
Because we know we can't be found
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus' garden in the shade
We would shout and swim about
The coral that lies beneath the waves
(Lies beneath the ocean waves)
Oh what joy for every girl and boy
Knowing they're happy and they're safe
(Happy and they're safe)
We would be so happy you and me
No one there to tell us what to do
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus' garden with you
it's shit ringo.
sorry lads
>actually listening to the beaters (of women)
Cringe
masterpiece unironically
based
Lennon was a child-abandoning junkie who always blamed other people for his problems. He made two good solo albums and then moved into boring soft rock.
Yea I'm thinking he's based
Which two?
Paul must have had extremely low test.
John was the cutest
The third guy looks Albanian
Probably true in some circumstances, but the opposite was also true. Listen to John's bass playing on the Long and Winding Road: undoubtedly sabotage. They were both passive aggressively undermining each other probably from 66-67 onward
>the third guy
“It’s *cough George *cough Harrison”
Plastic Ono Band and Imagine
I love that song.
Based cumtown listener
Those are the only two regular albums I have. There's some fun stuff on Acoustic Masterpieces.
Lennon said a lot of shit that wasn’t true cause he was angry at Paul (read his comments on How Do You Sleep). I really hope this is an example, cause it’s fucking idiotic if this is something he really thought.
The reason Paul’s songs had an atmosphere of tight perfectionism is because that’s how Paul likes his songs. Throughout his career, he’s done his songs with a very specific idea in mind.
The reason Johns songs had an atmosphere of looseness and experimentation was because Paul had no fucking idea how to read Johns mind. Paul, George, and Ringo didn’t know what John wanted. He took charge during his songs, and they have this atmosphere of “looseness and experimentation,” because that’s how John treated all his songs his whole career.
It would have been NOTHING for John to just say “well guys, I actually have a specific idea of what this song should sound like. We’re gonna keep doing it until we get it how I want it.” He never did. Tomorrow Never Knows, Strawberry Fields Forever, and A Day In The Life all had John give vague directions the others had to innovate and experiment on. It’s fucking stupid to blame Paul for the way YOU direct YOUR work
I have an extremely important announcement to make.
*clears throat*
John Lennon beat his wife. That is all
*crab walks away*
>John's bass playing on the Long and Winding Road
atonal granny shit >>>
>atonal
Look up what that means
No
Did you mean that song was "atonal granny shit," or John's bass playing? If you mean the song, that wasn't really an example of the granny shit. the "granny shit" (john's words) was Honey Pie, When I'm Sixty Four, Silver hammer, etc. and while it may have been influenced by music hall and turn of the century schlock, it still showcased Paul's talent as a songwriter and pop musician, and they were still good songs, so I don't think it's really a fair criticism
clearly I meant the bass, fuckwit. jfc.
I like the song. one of the best off Let It Be. its overhated.
No you didn't, because John often referred to some of Paul's songs as "granny shit," so it looked like you were referring to that song in the same way
you can stop yelling, he can't hear you
I agree, that album in general doesn't get enough credit
He was probably somewhat jealous that Paul could manifest his ideas so clearly, from his being a consummate musician and perfectionist, or merely a narcissist that couldn’t stand how much attention Paul’s songs were getting in the studio compared to his own. That being said I prefer John’s writing.
Cringe and kys-pilled
I’m sorry for the mixup
Silver Hammer is a piece of shit
Mistakes happen. See you in the office 9:00 am sharp on Monday.
Yeah it is, I love Honey Pie and When I'm Sixty four though
What's wrong sweetie
Honey Pie
When I'm 64
Your Mother Should Know
Penny Lane
Let It Be
all granny shit. Dubs and Paul will be fine tomorrow
I’m pretty sure this quote is from the Lennon Remembers interview, which is basically at least 90% bullshit and shouldn’t be taken as a truthful document.
Penny Lane isn't granny shit, the chord progression and arrangement is too sophisticated; it's something greater. And granny shit isn't bad necessarily
all better songs than you or your favourite artist could ever hope to write
>my fav artist is george harrison
Yea you're wrong
I have an extremely important announcement to make.
*clears throat*
*clears throat again*
*clears throat again*
*dies*
Roll
The wrong two Beatles died first
*crab walks away*
It's a bit simplistic to boil down their conflict to jealousy - their friendship had broken down, they were both in different social circles - Paul was rubbing elbows with Fleet Street and the big company guys, John dove into the hippy shit and Yoko's art fraud crowd. And, there were business conflicts, too - I've always suspected a lot of their conflict was over Northern Songs, which was a huge fuck up on both of their parts. They were passively aggressively sniping at each other until Paul pulled the trigger and sued - John wanted out anyway, but used it to openly hate Paul, and fight with him.
If anything, the conflicts in the studio were symptoms of way bigger issues, like nobody liking Yoko, and John doing fucked up shit like having a bed put in the studio at Abbey Road so Yoko could squat like a poisonous toad in it, while they were working, and let her voice her idiotic opinions into band issues. You know that was all a "fuck you" from John, because he was an asshole like that. Once Epstein was gone, nobody could control him - and what you got was the band imploding, because they just didn't like each other anymore.
Write something that sells better, then maybe your opinion will matter.
>every Beatle disliked Paul right after the break up
>somehow John was the asshole of the band
Really makes you think
Gay opinion. I suppose I better direct a movie that sells better than Paul Blart before I dare criticize it, gamma male.
...
Ringo and George were pissed at John and Paul equally, because they felt they were being treated like hired musicians. John hated Paul for different reasons.
Paul got as much shit as he deserved, for suing and breaking the band up, even though it was inevitable at that point. He redeemed himself somewhat by going out and working harder, with Wings, while John retreated to his apartment in NYC and became a junky housedad. And pushed Yoko onto us with her shrieking and farty noises in a bag, onstage.
The saddest part of the whole story is the stuff John never did, because of Yoko. I don't hate any of the Beatles, but I have a deep, everlasting loathing for that toad of a woman.
>Ringo and George were pissed at John and Paul equally
No. George hated Paul at the end of the band, but was fine with John. Hell, George even played on 'How Do You Sleep?'
>caring about that shit
Lmaoing @ your "life"
That was after the breakup. George was pissed at both of them in the Let It Be era.
>*dies*
