#i need to be heard, helped and held
there’s a lot of bullshit lennon/mccartney quotes out there, misattributed by biases in biographers or straight-up fabrications. but there’s also “if i was a girl”. there’s also “if he had been a woman”. there’s also “is this a self-portrait?” there’s “in bed.” there’s “maybe that would’ve satisfied it”. there’s “nothing to worry about”, and “life begins at 40”, and “it’s only me.” there’s “the emperor of eternity”. “he chose me.” “i’m still in love with you”. there’s “i can always deny that it was ever written about him.” so who cares

It did turn out to be culture after all. Didn’t it?
He wasn’t kidding with that question, but no - you were just a good little band.
Changed the world with that good little band.
Making sure I have this resource for the historical record. 👀
Give me a fact or some facts that make me believe in McLennan completely!
The only way it would be confirmed 100% is if Paul decides to speak about it (which is very unlikely). But there is a lot of interesting things that, when added up, make a compelling case.

HELLO?? PAUL WOAH.
John and Paul, Hey Jude recording season; 30th July, 1968.
This was THE moment of Get Back for me.
Paul McCartney’s band giving him a present for 20 years together, backstage at the O2, 19th December 2024
Is this just audio? I would love to see how much he fidgets while saying all this.
Did find this interview and on a rewatch I do find the India connection very intriguing.
It feels significant Paul. Why does this song of regret make you think of India?
what if I just jump off a bridge
Reblogging again just to say, thank you for this. McLennon Forever, Trump Never.
🖤🤎💜💙🩵💚💛🧡❤️🩷
