If Only John Lennon's Son

had a friend name Julie and he drew a picture of Julie in the sky with Diamonds

 

And the Beatles sang, "Julie In The Sky With Diamonds" all the drug users wouldn't be in love with how the Beatles helped show how they were promoting LSD with Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds.

 

Just a thought. But they would definetly be saying, "oh yeah, They said Julie in sky with diamonds, but they were talking about LSD."

 

I'm alone on this. maybe in a different universe.

what's wrong with that? it doesnt matter what the artist intended the song to be, people are always going to take it and make it their own and make their own interpretations.

 

do you have a problem with the beatles being associated with drugs? or do you just have a problem because the beatles have said the song is not about drugs, but people still insist it is, and are therefore 'misinterpreting' the song?

I am personally tired of drug addled idiots\kids back at high school who constantly pushed that THIS is what the song was about.

I've got it on good authority that they were actually promoting LITSWD and this was all a horrible misunderstanding.

that's why i started this thread. I too am sick of the drug addicted idiots who always try to push this.

But also accept that this was one of John's strongest songs from his LSD phase. The Beatles liked to get high. And whether they used Lucy or Julie the lyrical imagery would still point to the song's drug influence. Why is this a problem?

Because some people have anuses that are far too tight for their brains to properly function.

I have found this amusing. But I am left with, what's the big deal?

 

There will always be drug addled momos out there...These are the same people who play "Smoke Two Joints" backwards, because they think it'll help them find the back of weed they misplaced, but really smoked already.
