The Headquarters of the Status Quo: home and family.

Why does John sing “Please don’t wear red tonight”?

Martha was Paul’s pet DEER, obviously. (Says so right in the title)

What was Ringo’s primary instrument?

It was actually a song aimed at helping people remember that whilst young Ox’s are dangerous and should only be approached with caution by trained specialists in light of the 1968 “incident” they are still animals and not all should not be stigmatised by the actions of the few. Yoko being an acronym for

Young

Oxen

Kick

Out

Needless to say the song didn’t do that well in America only making number 176 in the US Billboard Charts of 1970, however in Venezuela it was a surprise hit reaching number 8.* Go Ringo.a-hard-days-night-ringo-15

What type of guy was John when he sang “i’m just a jealous guy”?

 

*This is in fact Ringo’s second highest charting single in Venezuela after ‘Las Brisas’ which reached number 3 and remained in their top 75 for 13 weeks.

A sensitive, affectionate, caring, emotionally mature individual –the John we all know and love.

 

Whatever did he mean with that thing of “playing the mind guerillas”?

Ringo had been contacted by REDACTED. They did not like his singing and wanted him to stop. He refused and REDACTED tried and failed many times to kill him. All of the Beatles movies were fictionalized accounts of the attempts on his life. Finally, in 1967, REDACTED killed Brian Epstein. They also created a mind control machine which slowly turned the Beatles against each other. An attempt was made to ruin the Beatles final released album by REDACTED’s agent Phil Spector. These events led to the downfall of the Beatles.

Who was the Nowhere Man and what was he missing?

Fascinating tale of intrigue! Of course it had to be a mind control machine

that turned them against one another.

The Nowhere Man was Paul and what he was missing was not knowing what Jane was doing when they were apart. He made another song about that relationship dynamic, too. It was titled You Won’t See Me .

What was the model of vehicle that The Beatles sang about in Drive My Car ?
