Dear Prudence , Sexy Sadie , and Bungalow Bill. Sexy Sadie was later discovered to be the Maharishi’s alter ego, thus her ‘presence’ was a hoax. 

 

I am strongly tempted to ask what key ‘This Song’ is in, but will refrain as it’s Only A Northern Song a solo George and therefore not a proper Beatlesong. 

So… 

How many years ago today did Sgt Pepper teach the band to play?

Strange, my version of Hey Jude has Julian singing the na na’s. Is your version a bootleg, Necko?

0 times, because he feared the fact that he is left-handed and George M. is right-handed would make the game impossible to play.

Because the screaming teenage Beatlemaniacs were blocking his path. Fortunately, he was good mates with the pretty little p’licmen all in a row, who helped him get out of many a row.

At a card game, he won her after going all in with a pair of fives and winning against Ace High. This true story can be heard in the unreleased 1983 follow-up Paul demo ‘D.A.M.’ which has been bootlegged.

 

Why did the Beatles need protection in ‘Help ‘!

He tells us in this song.

He even says “Well. There goes me knighthood.” at the 3:50 mark in the song.

How did Molly react when she found out that Desmond had a three-month affair with Polythene Pam ?

He sings ‘Please Dont Go’, and since he’s so famous you have to wait until he has finished.

Famously sung by KWS in the 90’s and since covered by KC and the Sunshine Band in the 70’s before Paul wrote it with George in 1969 (released using the alternate names Harry Wayne Casey and Richard Finch) during the Apple meeting when John declared his intention to leave the group and form a traveling one man circus band with Yoko, Eric Clapton and Mitch Murray. Paul actually is in KC and the Sunshine Band playing the calypso bass drum. You see him cleaning it during the video for ‘Give It Up‘ (2:21 into the video). All of this is in the book ‘Beatles: Solo and Alone’ for those who like sources.

 

Where were people to ‘Come Together ‘?
