Always loved the lines:  “….the movement you need is on your shoulder.”   and  “…picks up the rice in a church where a wedding has been; lives in a dream.”

As far as funeral music goes: my loved ones all know that it better be Beatles……or I'll come back and HAUNT THEM ALL!!!!blue-meanie

Good line. I'm going to tell that to my nephew. Actually I'm considering in having “Fixing A Hole ” song so when my friends asks “Why that song?” my family says “Oh we put her there because she's Fixing A Hole “.

 

Ok lame joke. a-hard-days-night-paul-2

Here comes the sun….. Scoobie-doobie……

Something in the way she moves…..attracts me like a cauliflower…

Bop. Bop, cat bop. Go, Johnny, Go.

New to Beatles Bible, but I have a few I'd like to mention.

 

“I was alone, I too a ride, I didn't know what I would find there. Another road where I could see another kind of mind there.”

 

“Your voice is soothing. I can not hear. Your lips are moving, but the words aren't clear.”

 

“Each day just goes so fast. I turn around; it's past. You don't get time to hang a sign on me.”

 

All just pure poetry, but my personal favorite, in entirety (minus choruses):

 

“I've got a word or two. To say about the things that you do. You're telling all those lies about the thing that we can't have if we close our eyes. I left you far behin the ruins of the life that you have in mind. And though you still can't see, I know your mind's made up you're going to cause more misery. Although your mind's opaque, try thinking more if only for your own sake. And though the future still looks good. You've still got time to rectify all the things that you should.”

I think that's the first time I've seen an off-topic comment that could be considered on-topic.

Nicely done M3.

“Close your eyes and I'll kiss you. Tomorrow I'll miss you. Remember, I'll always be true.” I like it because of the way Paul is expressing his devotion to whoever he's kissing, and that he's trying to get one last kiss to remember when he's gone.

Jeweler, you've failed.

I'm a huge George fan so my favorite line is defiantly Something from “While My Guitar Gently Weeps ” Probably “I'm sitting here doing nothing but aging” “Or i look at the world and notice its turning” Or “And of course Henry the Horse dances the waltz” that than the following part of the songs scares me to death every time i hear it.

Really hard question. Norwegian Wood , Nowhere Man , Girl, Blackbird , Eleanor Rigby , Something …they all have fantastic lyrics in my opinion. But I guess that Strawberry Fields has the best lyrics in general…I mean “Living is easy with eyes closed” are such a simple and amazing lines! I wish I could write something like this hahahaha! Honourable mention: In My Life …fantastic and very personal lyrics!

Interestingly, Paul did not like the line…”the movement you need is on your shoulder.” and was considering to drop it but John insisted he keep it.

And my favourite lyric is from, yes you guessed it right, Strawberry Fields Forever : “It’s getting hard to be someone but it all works out, it doesn’t matter much to me.” The line basically sums up the person John Lennon was and also reveals his emotionally vulnerability.

Gotta admit, 1967 was an amazing year musically for The Beatles. Not that any other year wasn’t! george-martin

I’ve always loved the slippery slidiness of Mean Mr. Mustard, like when John sings, “Mean Mr. Mustard sleeps in the park shaves in the dark tryna save paper.” Even though there’s no meaning and its pretty much nonsense, it just makes the song more fun!

I really love Nowhere Man too because it just speaks to you. “Isn’t he a bit like you and me?” The chorus is genius. You can’t help but sing along! (la la la la la!)

Everyone here seems to be really into Strawberry Fields, and I’m simply going to have to agree with oliveya. a-hard-days-night-george-9

SFF has some amazing lyrics.

“I think I know I mean, ah yes, but it’s all wrong

That is I think I disagree.”

 

Pure unmatched genius.

It changes according to my mood (i know- I’m weird). Today it’s ‘limitless undying love which shines around me like a million suns’ .
