Stand By Your Man

I have so many words..

#sometimes is incapable of not telling the truth #oh Paul

the infamous “if i was a girl, maybe i could go out and…” paul quote is so insane to me because like… he doesn’t want john to NOT be a man, he wants it to be socially acceptable to be with john exactly as he is

🙌

now they're frightened of leaving it

everyone's weaving it

This or McBeardy? I can’t believe we got both. I have to go and lie down and think about it some more.

This is the kind of thinking that only tumblr delivers.

The transition in Paul's attitude from 66' to 67' freaks me out a little and I think should be talked about more. In 66' he's full on ready for independence and spouting off in magazines like ''I'm my own person, I want to grow up, do my own thing, maybe only work with the Beatles when we feel the need to'' etc. Contrast that to 67' and he's full-blown May Queen from Midsommar "Leaving? Why would you say that?? I'm staying forever and ever and ever with the Beatles, financially handcuffing ourselves to each other just feels good y'know, so what if I'm psychically fused with John whats the big deal?" enmeshed. Sure he's got Jane but even she leaves partially because Paul's first and foremost part of the four-headed monster.

Like Paul, what happened??? Did they lock you in a room clockwork orange style with a shit ton of LSD and the Beatles cartoon? Did John sneak into your room at night and start playing a menacing arrangement of the Beach Boys at a subliminal frequency? Did you get spooked by independence and taxes and run back to the loving embrace of the emotional polycule? It frankly makes the LSD peer pressure thing come across as vaguely sinister/j.

The Beatles don't get enough credit for being the weird microcosm of in-group/out-group pack mentality behaviour that those little freaks were. Seriously, it should be studied.

hardest pic of all time

In honor of 1967, here are some of Paul's favorites from the year. (worn often)

This tan grid overcoat. He wears it into 1968.

Vests grid and MMT

Pink and blue tunics.

This shirt makes it's first appearance, he wears it during get back and well into the mid 70s.

Green shirt

This fuckass scarf.

This sports(?) T-shirt. The jacket is also worn during Our world live prep.

Ancor shirt from 1966 (first pic 66). Is there a red one, or is it colorized? The colors look pretty natural if so.

Stripey blazer, also worn during Sgt. Pepper press release.

1966 tour jacket. (First pic 66) not to be confused with the similar Apple Jacket (below) which he begins wearing late in the year.

Honorable mention to this gray sweater he wears once, I like to think it's the same one from 1963.

Another thing I've noticed is that the Beatles either share clothes (All of them!! Its not mclennon uwu as some claim), or buy matching sets, which is also possible since I've seen them match.

early beatles writing sessions

paul: okay, we have to come up with some ideas for the next album. so i was thinking—

john: i have an idea for a song about how im a piece of shit fat ugly bitch with no friends and is hated by everyone and should die. i’m going to call it Dumbfuck Asshole About To Kill Himself.

paul: ……right! cool! i was thinking more along the lines of “i love you girl and want to dance with you” but that’s really good too!
