Does anyone like the Beatles Revolution #9?

 

These words, by themselves, are a bit of the ol' 52 pickup routine ... and somewhat meaningless ... but there are other things missing here ...

 

the block that kick routine ... several times ... and that is either rugby or soccer

there are a couple of moments in there from Marat/Sade

there is some shakespeare

there is some "angry young men"

there is a something that I think is a Goon bit kinda messed with (and we know that John and Peter Sellers had known each other for some time)

....

not sure that just interpreting, or trying to interpret some words out of context really help any ... and it might prove anti-climatic in the end.

 

A bunch of these are not "lyrics" ... they are just lines off the street per se ...

 

I wrote this the other day, and not sure if it was here or not ... it's like this ... you go out in the street with a camera turned on and with sound ... and you can hear many things ... now ... for some reason when you hear it back you think that it has to have some sort of order and organization ... and there is none ... the only one there is, that we can make, is that you walked down the street with the camera turned on ... and it picked up things ...

 

Are they meaningful? Some yes, soem no ... but then you also go to s aporting event to see your team win! (Block that kick) ,...

 

As I said before this is no more no less the mumbojumbo that your mind goes through and it is really hard to sort out the madness ... you're trying to tell me that your mind is better organized than this? Who are you folling? Yourself?

 

The Beatles, like many of us when we "grow up" arrive at a point, when it seems that /... "it's all too much" ... and it is really hard to figure out what is right and wrong ... and if there is a lack of  solid internal stature this confusion will be really difficult to deal with.

 

It was ... many people did not like it ... but tell me something ... how is Revolution #9 different from Andy Warhol turning on a camera on people sleeping for several hours? It isn't ... in a way, it is also a way of telling us that we over react and over analyze things ... and sometimes ... it doesn't mean anything and it doesn't have to!

 

I say it meant something, and it is the reason why it is there ... but it is there to tell you that we're just as confused and loaded up as you are and we're trying to make sense of things as it is ... and no one is givng them that respect, credit and sensitivity ... and at the end of the day, is ... when you're tired and need to crash ... you get "Good Night" ... and it is the last song on the album ... I really think that it is not a coincidence that it was done that way ... but Paul and Ringo do not have to justify that for you and I ... or anyone else ... and neither do they have to put up with someone insulting their intelligence for their choice of music and songs ... after all that they had given us, including their lives!
