Hi everyone! I'm only 25 but I was brought up on the Beatles music pretty much from the day I was born, so I've always been a huge fan. I stumbled on a PID website maybe five or six years ago, read it and kind of laughed it off, but for some reason over the past few days it popped back into my head and became a kind of obsession. So I did some google searches and found a few pretty much dead forums and finally stumbled on this one which seems to still be active! I look forward to doing a lot of reading and responding. Also, I am not the pennylane whos old posts show up in my profile. I just noticed that haha...Didn't want any confusion!

Q: Have you ever considered discontinuing performing and instead just keep on writing?"
JOHN: "No."
mmm... seems they were keen on touring still.

It's hard getting real meanings to songs.. especially from the beatles anyways.. john's song "i know" (currently part of it in my sig).. what is it about.. because my first impression was paul.. but it seems to be a little "queer"! anyone know what this song is about?

I don't want to get into the dynamic between all of them. But as for John & Paul..
I honestly feel disconnected from the feeling that John & Paul's relationship would've been peachy keen if it was indeed him in the LIB Film. Put aside the the notion that he's dead, or replaced, and pretend for a minute it's really him. People don’t seem to address the enormous, overriding, legendary power-struggle in the Lennon/McCartney dynamic. And when they do, they usually portray Paul as sweet and passive, which is so incredibly contrary to how I see him. Paul is an unmitigated control-freak, and yet he is RARELY presented this way.
I think part of it is probably because Paul, on the outside, IS very sweet and we all know that he loves John very much and has said so 80 million times. But I think the older-version Paul that we know probably has little to do with how Beatle-Paul related to, interacted with and dealt with Beatle-John. In my mind (and feel free to disagree, of course!), Paul was always the dominant one in their personal relationship until the break-up. And John’s method of exerting control, at that time, was to merely withdraw; it seems to me that was probably the most effective method he had.
There’s a comment that Yoko made recently (in the context of the “Mozart/Salieri” fiasco) that really stuck out in my brain… She defended her statements about John’s insecurity by saying that one of the things that “hurt John the most” was how Paul wrestled control of the band from him at the end, and implied that this was a constant fear John had always had (and that finally came true!). I’ve read other things to back this up, too; how before John even invited Paul into the band he was scared of losing control to him... My impression is that John NEVER really felt in control with/of Paul. And breaking apart with him finally was probably a massively liberating experience in terms of feeling FREE and individualistic (you know, the way you feel after getting out of a stifling relationship). This goes a long way to explain why John tried so VERY VERY HARD to disassociate himself from the Beatles afterwards, and why he tried so VERY VERY HARD to promote/assert his own talent, why he was all JOHN JOHN JOHN suddenly… because he probably felt (and WAS) very dominated by Paul when they were together and needed to prove to himself that he had his own worth, independent of Paul. Now of course the ironic part is that he slipped into a similarly co-dependant, obsessive relationship with Yoko (although they at least seemed to work it out together). But this supports my general feeling that John, in essence, was just a very fucking needy, dependant, emotional mutherfucker. He pair-bonded very deeply with two very, very strong personalities who knew how to manage him- and for further proof all we need to look to is the fact that Paul and Yoko are STILL, to this VERY FUCKING DAY, fighting for dominance over him.
That is IF Paul is Paul.

I still stand by what I've said b4.. I think it could be Paul in the Let It Be film.

At about 2.54 there is a close up on Janes belly.. does she look pregnant there by any chance? or is it just the dress?

I like the not so obvious tribute to Paul. Just before they start on Peppers they do the whole montage of pre 67 footage to Paul's song "for no-one".. simply beautiful

JoJo, you might well have just pulled out another clue that JPM was decapitated... or head trauma.
