So there's the concept of the Baby Blue/It's all Over Now. It's All Over Now - recorded by the Stones, June 1964 It's all Over Now Baby Blue - Dylan, March 1965 Baby Blue - Badfinger, 1971 Sylvie, known as the Bluebird, I believe. The Badfinger song said to be about another singer, Dixie Armstrong. The writer of Baby Blue, Peter Ham, who also worked with Nilsson, is a member of the 27 club. What do I have here? Baby Blue is the re-telling of another story? Guess I got what I deserved Kept you waiting there too long, my love All that time, without a word Didn't know you'd think that I'd forget Or I'd regret The special love I have for you My baby blue All the days became so long Did you really think I'd do you wrong? Dixie, when I let you go Thought you'd realize that I would know I would show The special love I have for you My baby blue What can I do, what can I say Except I want you by my side (so what's stopping you? couples re-locate to be together all the time) How can I show you? Show me a way Don't you know the times I've tried? Guess that's all I have to say Except the feeling just grows stronger everyday Just one thing before I go Take good care baby, let me know Let it grow The special love you have for me My Dixie dear The Dylan song is even more interesting. Speaks of a seasick sailor (Paul with the Popeye mask, a seaport town), a vagabond rapping at the door wearing the clothes you once wore (someone's been replaced), there's also an orphan with a gun (now that's interesting), and a painter on the street (the Beatle Paris street photos). The Jester watched it all happen, from the sidelines, in a cast.

a PID song, 'cause you know sometimes words have two meanings I'll try to explain later. Suite: Judy Blue Eyes (Studio Version + Lyrics) -------------------------------------------------------------- Stephen Stills and Judy Collins on "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes"www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2T0RpkyqUU ------ Jason Simon Jun 13, 2010 Lyrics: It's getting to the point Where I'm no fun anymore I am sorry Sometimes it hurts so badly I must cry out loud I am lonely I am yours, you are mine You are what you are And you make it hard. Remember what we've said and done and felt About each other Oh babe, have mercy Don't let the past remind us of what we are not now I am not dreaming. I am yours, you are mine You are what you are You make it hard. Tearing yourself away from me now You are free and I am crying This does not mean I don't love you I do, that's forever, Yes and for always I am yours, you are mine You are what you are You make it hard. Something inside is telling me that I've got your secret. Are you still listening? Fear is the lock, and laughter the key to your heart And I love you. I am yours, you are mine, you are what you are You make it hard And you make it hard (x 3). Friday evening, Sunday in the afternoon What have you got to lose? Tuesday morning, please be gone I'm tired of you. What have you got to lose? Can I tell it like it is? (Help me I'm suffering) Listen to me baby. It's my heart that's a suffering (Help me I'm dying) It's a dying, that's what I have to lose I've got an answer I'm going to fly away What have I got to lose? Will you come see me Thursdays and Saturdays? What have you got to lose? Chestnut brown canary Ruby throated sparrow Sing the song don't be long Thrill me to the marrow. Voices of the angels, ring around the moonlight Asking me, said she's so free How can you catch the sparrow? Lacy, lilting, lyric, losing love, lamenting Change my life, make it right Be my lady. *Que linda me la traiga Cuba, La reina de la Mar Caribe. Cielo sol no tiene sangre allÃ, y que triste que no puedo vaya, Oh va, oh va, va. Translation: *Oh, what beauty Cuba brings me, The queen of the Caribbean Sea, Sunny sky has no blood over there, And how sad that I cannot go, Oh go, oh go, go.

Translation: *Oh, what beauty Cuba brings me, The queen of the Caribbean Sea, Sunny sky has no blood over there, And how sad that I cannot go, Oh go, oh go, go. Absolutely fascinating. A ruby throated sparrow. Of course, having watched "Seconds" recently, the vocal cords, teeth, and finger prints changed by a "Dr. Ruby", this line jumps out at me. What else jumps out now that I see these lines printed out? "You make it hard". Yikes. The mentioning of days has always stood out to me about this song. This, I'm starting to view from the standpoint of code names. Hmmm....Didn't my avatar refer to Morrison as "The Sapphire". Huh. Sapphires, Rubies, days of the week. From a PID perspective, we see Chestnut Brown Canary. Jenny Wren? Jeni Crowley on the MMT bus? HELP!...I need somebody, not just anybody. I need Dr. Ruby/Dr. Robert? Got no thoughts on Cuba. None at all. Last time I played this song was this past summer. Pool party out back. Bluetooth speakers and phones at the ready. I'll be your D.J. Any requests? One of the adults says "David Crosby, something with David Crosby". I pull this one up fast enough. Thrills all the kids to the marrow. They start hopping around..."Do Do Do Do, Do"....Now you put these lyrics up and I'm thinkin' about last summer....holy moley.

Suite Judy Blue Eyes card #2 in the Major Arcana en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_High_Priestess: "In the Rider–Waite Tarot, illustrated by Pamela Coleman Smith ..... The High Priestess sitting between the pillars of Boaz and Jachin (which has a particular meaning to Freemasonry). She wears a crown similar to the Egyptian goddess Hathor and is depicted with the Marian imagery of a blue mantle and the moon at her feet. A. E. Waite, the co-creator of the Rider–Waite deck ..... speculated that it was ..... connected to the ancient cult of Astarte. Other variants that came after Rider–Waite are the Virgin Mary, Isis, the metaphorical Bride of Christ or Holy Mother Church..... In the Rider–Waite .... deck .... The High Priestess is identified with the Shekhinah, the female indwelling presence of the divine. She wears plain blue robes and sits with her hands in her lap. She has a lunar crescent at her feet, "a horned diadem on her head, with a globe in the middle place" similar to the crown of the ancient Egyptian goddess Hathor, but with the horns having a shape more like half-crescents, and a large cross on her breast, the balance between the four elements: fire, water, earth, and air. The scroll in her hands, partly covered by her mantle, bears the letters TORA (meaning "divine law"), that symbolizes the memory we carry inside about the past, present and future, named Akasha. She is seated between the white and black pillars—'J' and 'B' for Jachin (Judy) and Boaz Blue az - 'eyes' of the mystic Temple of Solomon. The veil of the Temple is behind her: it is embroidered with palm leaves (male) and pomegranates (female), growing on a tree shaped like the tree of life. The motif that hangs behind the High Priestess’s throne, veiling whatever mysteries she guards, is suggested in the pattern of The Empress' gown. The two are sisters, one bringing life into the world, the other inviting the living to the esoteric mysteries. Further behind all of that is what seems to be a body of water, most probably the sea. The water flows through most of the cards of the Rider–Waite–Smith Tarot. According to A. E. Waite's 1910 book Pictorial Key to the Tarot, the High Priestess card is associated with: Secrets, mystery, the future as yet unrevealed; the woman who interests the Querent, if male; the Querent herself, if female; silence, tenacity; mystery, wisdom, science. Reversed: Passion, moral or physical ardor, conceit, surface knowledge. "Something inside is telling me that I've got your secret. Tuesday morning, please be gone I'm tired of you. What have you got to lose? Can I tell it like it is? (Help me I'm suffering) Listen to me baby. It's my heart that's a suffering (Help me I'm dying) I've got an answer I'm going to fly away What have I got to lose? youtu.be/SVOuYquXuuc?t=332Will you come see me Thursdays and Saturdays?

I had a night, what a night Remember somethin' about a fight It got loud, real loud I was hangin' with this crazy crowd
I'm not me without you I can't be, I'm not me yeah
And in the mornin', I'm feelin rough I guess I'm just not sleepin' enough I'm havin' trouble communicatin' When I laugh I'm only fakin' baby
I'm not me without you I can't be, I'm not me yeah
I cut my hair, I quit my job I wrecked my car into a mob I looked up, they looked down Then the man took me downtown
I'm not me without you I can't be, I'm not me yeah I'm not me without you I can't be, I'm not me yeah
Now everything seems so out of place Look in the mirror see a stranger's face I don't know who it could be I just know that it ain't me
I'm not me without you I can't be, I'm not me yeah I'm not me without you I can't be, I'm not me yeah

"Robert De Niro's Waiting"
Hopes dashed to the floor Like shattered teenage dreams Boys living next door Are never what they seem
A walk in the park can become a bad dream People are staring and following me This is my only escape from it all Watching a film or a face on the wall
Robert De Niro's waiting Talking Italian Robert De Niro's waiting Talking Italian Robert De Niro's waiting Talking Italian (Talking Italian) Robert De Niro's waiting
I don't need a boy I've got a man of steel Don't come any closer I don't wanna feel
You're breathing, you're touching, but nothing's for free I never want this to happen to me Don't try to change me, you're wasting your time Now I've got something much better in mind
Robert De Niro's waiting Talking Italian Robert De Niro's waiting Talking Italian Robert De Niro's waiting Talking Italian (Talking Italian) Robert De Niro's waiting
A walk in the park can become a bad dream People are staring and following me This is my only escape from it all Watching a film or a face on the wall
Robert De Niro's waiting Talking Italian Robert De Niro's waiting Talking Italian Robert De Niro's waiting Talking Italian (Talking Italian) Robert De Niro's waiting
In the movie The Godfather Part Two Robert de Niro speaks fluent Italian. Does his imposter replacement ever do that in any of his films? The guy might not even be of Italian descent.

From the album Little Creatures by Talking Heads (1985)
"Give Me Back My Name"
There's a word for it And words don't mean a thing There's a name for it And names make all the difference in the world
Some things can never be spoken Some things cannot be pronounced That word does not exist in any language It will never be uttered by a human mouth
Let X make a statement Let breath pass through those cracked lips That man was my hero And now that word has been taken from us
Some things can never be spoken Some things cannot be pronounced That word does not exist in any language It will never be uttered by a human mouth
Give me back my name Give me back my name Something has been changed in my life Something has been changed in my life Something must be returned to us Something must be returned to us
That word does not exist in any language It will never be uttered by a human mouth
Give me back my name Give me back my name Something has been changed in my life Something has been changed in my life Something must be returned to us Something must be returned to us

Let's take a look at how the Rolling Stones new song Angry could be PID/PWR...
Angry ~ Rolling Stones
Don't get angry with me, I never caused you no pain I won't be angry with you, but I can't see straight
It hasn't rained in a month, the river's run dry We haven't made love, and I wanna know why Why you angry with me? Why you angry?
According to the Lovely Rita story, toward the end of a long recording session, an argument broke out between John and Paul, causing Paul to storm out of the studio.
Please just forget about me, cancel out my name Please never write to me, I love you just the same I hear a melody ringing in my brain Just keep the memories, don't have to be ashamed
Don't get angry with me, I'm in a desperate state I'm not angry with you, don't you spit in my face
The wolf's at the door with the teeth and the claws My mouth's getting sore, I can't take anymore Why you angry with me? Why you angry?
These lines could seen as Paul sarcastically telling John to go ahead and just forget about him, but in the end pleading him not to hold a grudge.
Voices keep echoing, calling out my name Hear the rain keep beating on my window pane I hear a melody ringing in my brain You can keep the memories, don't have to be ashamed Don't get angry with me
Again, according to the Lovely Rita story, Paul drove away from the studio in rain, and somewhere along the way picked up a girl who was looking for a ride. The lines in the song seem to suggest Paul is asking for John to keep alive the memories of them both, but don't be ashamed of anything they did, or be angry about anything.
Angry Angry
Angry, don't be angry with me, if we go separate ways Angry, yeah, don't be angry with me, let's go out in a blaze
These lines seem to suggest the literal separation which happened when Paul died. Then to "go out in a blaze"--Paul who was in an alleged car crash and John was shot outside his apartment.
Angry, don't be angry with me, don't you spit in my face Angry, don't be angry with me, don't get, don't get
Angry, don't be angry with me I'm still taking the pills, and I'm off to Brazil Angry, don't be angry with me
Angry (Please), don't be angry with me Come on Angry, don't be angry with me
These lines seem to suggest that the music must continue; the show must go on.

I don't know where you got those ideas from - they bear no relation to the actual lyrics. What I thought when I first saw them was that they'd read what I've had to say about them being imposters and they're telling me not to be angry with them. It also foretells nuclear annihilation "let's go out in a blaze." Perhaps he knows he'll be safe somewhere in Brazil.
Redemption Song (1980) by Fob Marley is now a PID imposter song. The pirates are the skull and bones who took him from a bottomless pit of doppelgängers. It also foretells nuclear war. This ability to foretell comes from foreknowledge not prophecy, because detonating nukes is the next false flag. One thing I've often wondered is do the imposters take part in, or at least observe, the killing of the originals (prophets) Do they "stand around and look?"
Old pirates, yes, they rob I Sold I to the merchant ships Minutes after they took I From the bottomless pit But my hand was made strong By the hand of the Almighty We forward in this generation Triumphantly
Won't you help to sing These songs of freedom? 'Cause all I ever have Redemption songs Redemption songs
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery None but ourselves can free our minds Have no fear for atomic energy 'Cause none of them can stop the time How long shall they kill our prophets While we stand aside and look? Ooh! Some say it's just a part of it We've got to fulfill the book
Similar themes can be found in Feter Tosh's No Nuclear War (1987)
I saw World War One Where lotsa trouble begun I saw World War Two When the pirates came right through
Lookin' for World War Three But you got to set me free Free from the chains And this here misery.
That song was released in the years the imposter died in a "home invasion." It sounds like he'd lost the will to live and they put him out of his misery. These imposters are spies/insiders and I suspect they know more information about planned events than they ever let on. Pirates are mentioned again, but this time "coming through" WWII. This sounds just like he had been informed that it was a planned event.
I think I've got a date for when the nukes are possibly going to be detonated based on several things that look like predictive programming. I'm not going to mention it yet but it could be sometime in the next few years. I did have a dream about being killed by a nuke and spoke with B about it in the Unbelievable What's going on thread.

I don't know where you got those ideas from - they bear no relation to the actual lyrics. Joseph, it is my own interpretation of Angry as it relates to John and Paul's relationship, the Lovely Rita story of how Paul died, and the way they both died. Maybe it's just over your head...

Joseph, it is my own interpretation of Angry as it relates to John and Paul's relationship, the Lovely Rita story of how Paul died, and the way they both died. Maybe it's just over your head... Yes it's over my head, but I'd like you to get it in my head or as near as possible to my head by relating your interpretation to words in the song. Use logic where possible, lol. I've been reading the write up for "The Logical Song" by Poopertramp (1979) on Wikipedia and sighed and chuckled at the same time when I read: I actually compiled a playlist many years ago on my youtube channel of the UK's Top 40 for the month of October 1979 because that chart contains the first record I bought - The Prince by Madness. I don't think The Logical Song would even get into my top 20 from this chart, and it's only one of 12 months. The chart features Buggles, The Police, Blondie, Michael Jackson's Don't Stop Til You Get Enough, Sad Cafe (I used to know the lead singer Paul Young's mum Blanche very well at the time. She worked in the grocer's shop round the corner and lived on my road) Gary Numan, XTC and more: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZuAIU0COwfI6dfhk8Nc7YTLBWaYSwdds&si=TTLXHtJcTYxt1ffl1979 wasn't so much an awakening to music for me, I've always loved music, but at ages 10 and 11 it was when I started supporting it and going to Sharston youth club with my mates from Benchill. We called ourselves "the rude boys" and dressed in ties and trilbies and danced to the music of Two Tone records at the disco there. We used to get into scuffles with this other gang from Sharston who used to wear Fred Perry shirts and we called "the mods." 11 years old we were, I can't believe it. Too cool for The Logical Song anyway. The write up also states: Now I find that difficult to believe because when I listened to Dreamer by the true Supertramp the other day I was immediately transported back to my childhood when I must have heard the taunt, "Dreamer, you stupid little dreamer" a thousand times. Sorry, but that one's not going down the memoryhole. When I was young It seemed that life was so wonderful A miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical And all the birds in the trees Well they'd be singing so happily Oh joyfully, oh playfully watching me
But then they sent me away To teach me how to be sensible Logical, oh responsible, practical And then they showed me a world Where I could be so dependable Oh clinical, oh intellectual, cynical
There are times When all the world's asleep The questions run too deep For such a simple man
Won't you please Please tell me what we've learned I know it sounds absurd Please tell me who I am
I said now what would you say Now we're calling you a radical A liberal, oh fanatical, criminal
Oh won't you sign up your name We'd like to feel you're acceptable Respectable, oh presentable, a vegetable!
Take, take, take it
But at night, when all the world's asleep The questions run so deep For such a simple man Won't you please Won't you tell me Please tell me what we've learned Can you hear me I know it sounds absurd Why won't you help me But please tell me who I am Who I am, who I am, who I am
'Cause I was feeling so logical Digital One two three four LiberalThe Roger Hodgson imposter says this song is about being sent to boarding school and what it did to him, but I've listened to the true Supertramp's first and only three albums and even listened to the eponymous first album while reading the lyrics and there's no hint of such regret. I don't trust the imposter. The cry of "Please tell me who I am" begs the question, how do you not know who you are? Sounds like he's talking to the people who changed his identity. To me the song described the process of being sent to the facility where they are forced into being someone else with a different disposition that they want to present yourself as ie radical, Liberal etc. "And then they showed me a world." The imposters get told the truth about who's been killed before them and what would happen if they don't comply "Oh won't you sign up your name." They make them sign up for it, they must do. They mustn't let them out until they do. Logical!

Here's an even better one from Poopertramp from the first album by the imposters Crisis? What Crisis? What's happened is they've recorded Supertramp's songs on the album:
But...
This is what happened to The Fetals after Beatles For Sale, which I think is a load of Beatles reject songs. You've got Fohn saying they ran out of material as well. I mean they use the originals material for authenticity, but when they run out of that they've got all manner of songwriters, musicians and artists in their employ. Plus the imposters have been trained to be musicians in order to take over and write their own songs. What are they going to write about? Let's have a look:
Tell you a story that'll make a change Let me tell you when I'm way out of range It's about a man who's cruel and mean So promise not to cause a scene Then heaven help the ones you love There's nowhere 'neath the stars above Where you can run you know he'll find you It don't matter now, just look behind you You had your warning, you knew the score You got it wrong, and that means war So why'd you have to treat me rough Your explanation's not enough
Ain't nobody but me gonna lie for you Gonna die for you Ain't no fish in the sea gonna sigh for you Gonna try for you Gonna lie for you Gonna die for you
You see, I got a double disposition Sometimes I'm mean, sometimes I'm vicious I'm Doctor Jekyll, and Mister Hyde So if you want to stay alive Just give me all you've got to give And then perhaps I'll let you live
Ain't nobody but me gonna lie for you Gonna die for you Ain't no fish in the sea gonna sigh for you Gonna try for you Gonna lie for you Gonna die for you Gonna sigh for you Gonna try for you Gonna lie for you Gonna die for you
Hush: Now baby stop your cryin' Oh yes: I know that I've been lyin' Hush: Now baby stop your cryin' Oh yes: I know that I've been lyin' Hush: Now baby stop your cryin' Oh yes: I know that I've been lyin' Hush: Now baby stop your cryin' Oh yes: I know that I've been lyin' Hush: Now baby stop your cryin' now
Do I need to explain? Double disposition? It doesn't need interpretation, it's all there. Who's he singing to anyway? I don't want anyone to die for me. Must be a case of mistaken identity.

Jenny I read something you said about
Rock and roll and life and death
Ah, jenny I read they carried you home
Broken, beaten all alone
Oh, Jenny you said
Jenny you thought
Give them all that they want
Everything that you got
Oh, Jenny my dear
It's a wicked city
Once you're young, stupid and pretty
And all the angry young boys (and all the angry young girls)
They're making angry loud noises (kicking back at the world)
And all the angry young boys (and all the angry young girls)
Jenny they cried
Jenny they screamed
Your picture in every magazine
Yeah, ya wanted it all
But the American dream was nothing to write home about
She was the next big thing
And the telephone was ringing all of the time
You were wined and dined every night
Then one day it was over
And where are you now they wonder
And all the angry young boys (and all the angry young girls)
They're making angry loud noises (kicking back at the the world)
And all the angry young boys (and all the angry young girls)
Superstar, that's what you are
And all the angry young boys (and all the angry young girls)
They're making angry loud noises (kicking back at the the world)
And all the angry young boys (and all the angry young girls)
Behind their, their fingers
Eyes aside
In sharp little whispers
They say it's her
It is her
What happened to her
She knows this
And she smiles
She doesn't look anything
Anything like her pictures
She used to be
She used to be
She used to be
But she knows this and she smiles
For she has miles and miles of memories all to herself
Everything in between then and now
And all her images of everything in between now and then
And all they have
Ah, pictures
Pictures
