John Lives AU

80s PAUL MCCARTNEY APPRETIATION!!!!😭💗💗

I fear nothing like I fear the surge of teenage beatles fans that will spawn everywhere online when those godawful biopics drop. I know I sound like an asshole but if you get into some sterile version of them you’re not into them. The 4px videos and yellow 60s teeth are essential I’m sorry

When all of the clocks have run down

All over the world

For as long as the trees throw down blossoms and leaves

We'll be the lovers that never were

For as long as the sun shines out of somebody's ass

I believe in you baby, so don't tell me lies

I know there will be a parade of unpainted dreams

Paul McCartney - The Lovers That Never Were

just listened to ‘now and then’ for the first time in months because of the grammys and thinking about Paul singing to dead John over 40 years ago and John in 1980 basically implying to Paul ‘I miss you and I want to start ‘us’ again’ and how he was never given the chance and yes Paul has moved on but in some way he never will

40ish John is asking I love you. i miss you, will you be there for me , will you return to me?

and 80 ish Paul is saying yes, yes i love you. I would’ve. I would’ve.

and john can never answer

fuck offfff. nvm. fuck on

This is one of my favorite GIFs istg 😭

We hear ad nauseam about Paul and George’s “fight” during Let It Be/Get Back but nowhere near enough about their beautiful tender exchanges like this one:

G: They sell boots that high, but not that tight, and not particularly leather, maybe softer. Groovy ones like, you know those Afghan coats, they’re embroidered, I’ve got boots like that, but the slippers, the slippers feel at home. And it is great, you just tuck your pants in.

P: You want boots of those? Yeah, I’ve got boots of them.

G: You know where you get them?

P: Yeah, you get them off me (gentle laughter).

I’ll give you them, I’ll never wear them.

G: Do you want to hear the song I wrote last night?

It’s just a very short one, called I Me Mine.

P: Yes

society has forgotten just how hot paul was in his 20s. if i was john i would have a hard on at all times

John Lennon be like “I know you guys need money from our shows but I’m gonna cancel them for like two weeks anyways and run away with my boy bestie through Paris where we’re gonna share a single sized bed, get matching haircuts, and I’m gonna “let him have all the banana milkshakes he wants” if you catch my drift, haha. see ya!”
