Sweet Loretta Fart, she thought she was a cleaner, but she was a frying pan…

Why is Ringo looking at us with a spying glass on the cover of Ringo’s Rotogravure?

He’s trying to find where all the Ringo Starr album purchasers have gone. (Sorry, cruel lol ahdn_ringo_09)

Did George really want to do the Anthology documentary?

He did. He just took on the grouchy role in order to create an illusion that there was drama surrounding the Anthology. 

 

Why does Richard always wear sunglasses?

Feet! And Space Invaders. I can send a rather risqué image of John interacting with the latter to anyone over the age of eighteen, when provided with their home address and credit card details.

John is describing William Shears Campbell to fans, in the hopes that they will identify and remove the imposter. It didn’t work.

Who wrote the Beatles song entitled ‘Everybody’s Trying To Be My Legal Official’?

“Slower” (Released Feb. 30, 1971. Chart position: #9 Pop, #3 R&B, #17 C&W)

 

ANOTHER HARRISON ORIGINAL

 

                    “SLOWER” 

 

Slower,

It rhymes with “grower”

And not with “shower”

Which sounds just like “flower”

Yeah yeah, it sounds just like “flower”

 

Flower, 

Don’t confuse it with “flour”,

As used to bake biscuits

And I’ll tell you this, kids

Yeah yeah, let me tell you this, kids:

 

                         [Bridge]

 

         Well if you want to see your lawn             grow longer, stop using the mower

         And if your pie disappears too                   fast, try eating it slower

         Yeah yeah yeah yeah, much slower

 

(slide guitar break)

 

Lawyer,

Lot of people say “liar”

‘Cause my lawyer’s a liar

His pants are on fire

Yeah yeah, his pants are on fire

 

And he tells lies in layers

Yeah, my lawyer tells lies in layers,

And layers are for cakes and lawyers are for fakes

Yeah yeah, 

(Oh my lord)

And if you want your cake to last longer, try eating it slower

Yeah yeah, try eating it slower 

(Wahwah slide guitar tag, record-slowing-to-stop effect)

 

We all know that in February of ’64, John traveled to America in a Pan-Am jet, but how did the other Beatles get there?

Acid took them there.

He didn’t want John to release to the press that “she” was him, because Paul is actually a woman and has been hiding it this whole time. 

What are the names of John’s two sons, and who were the mothers?

And Paul appeared out of drag in Queen’s music video for ‘I Want To Break Free’ playing Roger Taylor in drag. a-hard-days-night-john-6

I’ve been getting into Queen lately and Roger Taylor uncannily reminds me of Paul — looks and he has that really high, pure kind of tenor. Maybe his real name is William Campbell????? ahdn_paul_06

Wait , Ringo was two mothers? Oh yeah, that’s right — identical twin Richard Starkey.

Yoko inspired the I Want You part and Cynthia inspired the She’s So Heavy part. John wanted Yoko because Cyn was too heavy for him. Cruel, I know, but… mccartney-shrug_01_gif

What was the original working title for It’s Only Love ?

It was originally called “Its Only Love” (sic) and only acquired the familiar title when it was misspelled with the apostrophe on the album sleeve. (John later complained bitterly about the “fuckin’ EMI grammar Nazis” in “Lennon Remembers”.)

What Beatles revelations did John disclose during the famous Wenner interview?

He realized that Love You To did not follow the rules of grammar and yet was still released. This made him very angry, believing that the EMI grammar Nazis favored George over himself.

What was John’s preferred way of venting/letting all his anger out?
