Unforgettable Love. 8/9

Story: 8

Acting: 10

Chemistry: 10

Comparable to: ?

Cute, cheesy, predictable, fluffy, farfetched, cliche, basically everything you probably saw before that has a married contact / CEO ….yeah you know the type especially in a cdrama but with a twist 😉Seriously though, this is so worth the watch if you love romantic fluffy romcoms. The child in this is beyond adorable and for me steals almost every scene. Yes, the storyline is a bit outrageous, I mean the whole idea of a child psychologist ‘forced’ to marry to help a child because he wants her to become his mom…… yes it’s a bit 🤪 but you just kind of go along with it. The cast (especially the main leads cause oof) has phenomenal chemistry together which makes all the craziness a bit more forgivable. At least for me it did. This drama definitely won’t be for everyone.

Life With The Lennons, Exclusive by Ray Coleman, April 1965 [x]

#john lennon #cynthia lennon #the beatles #ray coleman #kenwood #1965 #wish we had a specific date for this one #given this is around the same time as help! writing and LSD coffee spiking #im not sure ive read another pre-1968 interview that sounds more like bitter 70s john #but some interesting things here #his comments on growing old consider he later called this era his fat elvis period #his game with the press compared to paul #sounding more enthused about films than recording #the guy who told john ab contacts #early glasses johnny #an appearance of nigel the dog #how he uses soft to describe him but then uses it to barrage the idk radio hosts?#i'll follow the sun coming on the radio and the absurdity of saying paul was 10 when he wrote it #(he was 16 at the earliest possibly 17 or 18 and he didnt finish it until he was 22)#they're so weird with referring to their ages in the 60s like j&p just keep saying they met when they were 12 #(they were never 12 at the same time so its either shorthand or some absurd joke)#april 1965 #john speaks #text scans #ad lib club

I'll Follow the Sun's 15 words in Tune In

Following along with AKOM I was struck by this page as I was passing it, so just out of curiosity I googled to see what I could find out about "I'll Follow the Sun" that would have been available before Lewisohn wrote Tune In, and what could Lewisohn have done with his prose for this song?

From Beatles Music History website:

"I wrote that in my front parlour in Forthlin Road. I was about 16," McCartney stated in an interview. This would date the song as being written as far back as 1958. He continues, "So, 'I'll Follow The Sun' was one of those very early ones. I seem to remember writing it just after I'd had the flu...I remember standing in the parlour looking out through lace curtains of the window and writing that one."

There is a recording in existence (available on bootlegs) of the early Beatles, known then as The Quarrymen, performing the song. The electric guitar arrangement features Paul, John and George on guitar with Stuart Sutcliffe on bass and presumably Tommy Moore on drums. According to McCartney, who purchased the tape from Peter Hodgson in 1995, the recording dates back to April of 1960 and was made in the bathroom of his home at 20 Forthlin Road during a school holiday. McCartney's recollection of the "middle eight" being re-written before they recorded it professionally is confirmed by this early rough recording, because the lyrics of this middle section appears to say "Well, don't leave me alone, I need you/ Now hurry and follow me, my dear."

Tune In:

“I’ll Follow the Sun.” Paul came up with this rhythmic ballad alone, words and music, on his Zenith guitar.

There's a very good story and all we get is "rhythmic ballad on his Zenith guitar"? But all that about a John song that doesn't even really seem like a John song?

It does get a bit more ink in Chapter 15 when Lewisohn talks about the bootleg, but I can't see anyone who loves writing about where songs come from as much as Lewisohn does passing up all the history of one of their most beloved songs that a bootleg even exists for. A bootleg with different lyrics, that he never mentions! There's just a lot on this song that he could've done so much with, and although I wrote before that I don't think Lewisohn is actually trying to settle scores, I am now genuinely starting to wonder.

Lewisohn on "I'll Follow the Sun" in the bootleg:

There’s also the earliest-available recordings of “One After 909,” “I’ll Follow the Sun” and “Hello Little Girl.” “One After 909” is clearly a diamond in the rough, polished by John and Paul’s attractive harmonizing. “I’ll Follow the Sun” is Paul alone, guitar and voice, save for someone (probably John) slapping a guitar case.

I'll say this, once you start noticing the attention to detail and real estate, you really start noticing. I had focused on the jealousy footnotes early on in my reading because it stood out to me so much, and once I realized how few were supported I was awestruck and started digging more, but I hadn't given thought or attention to the broader comparisons.

Absolutely blown away, tbh. I am less enamored of the space comparisons in general because they're more subjective than just the, "What, he's saying Paul was jealous because he wanted to be out front and he hated Stu from a quote saying 'I was playing the drums with a broomstick between my legs and it wasn't easy"??" But although they're harder to point out, they are most certainly there, and there to a truly unpardonable extent. This one blew my ass away.

Honestly, WTF?

Since I referenced it, the "Paul's jealousy was stoked because he was unhappy because he liked exhibiting versitility and nobody looked at the drummer and did I mention he was jealous?" pages below.

Well I suppose that you could say that we were playing hard to get

I’ll Follow the Sun (1964): One day, you'll look / To see I've gone / For tomorrow may rain, so / I'll follow the sun | Someday, you'll know / I was the one / But tomorrow may rain, so / I'll follow the sun | And now the time has come / And so, my love, I must go / And though I lose a friend / In the end, you will know, oh

Teddy Boy (1968): Then came the day she found herself a man / Teddy turned and ran / Far away, okay | He couldn’t stand to see his mother in love / With another man / He didn’t know, oh no

Yvonne’s the One (1985): Yvonne’s the one I’ve been counting on / She said, hold on / You’re not the only one / And so I said so long Yvonne

-

I’ll Be Back (1964): I thought that you would realize / That if I ran away from you / That you would want me too / But I got a big surprise

Nowhere Man (1965): He’s as blind as he can be / Just sees what he wants to see / Nowhere man, can you see me at all?

Jealous Guy (1971): I was trying to catch your eyes / Thought that you was trying to hide

-

Only Love Remains (1985): And if you take your love away from me / I'm only going to want it back / I'll probably pretend I didn't see / But knowing me, I'll want you back again

I’ll Follow the Sun (1960): One day, you'll look / To see I've gone / For tomorrow may rain, so / I'll follow the sun | Someday, you'll know / I was the one / But tomorrow may rain, so / I'll follow the sun | Well, don’t leave me alone, my dear / Have courage and follow me, my dear

When you do something noble and beautiful and nobody noticed, do not be sad. For the sun every morning is a beautiful spectacle and yet most of the audience still sleeps.

Cayenne

This instrumental is one of Paul's earliest compositions, and a modified version was included on Anthology 1. It’s credited to Paul alone, so it predates any Lennon/McCartney agreement.

It's a short, pleasant, guitar piece. It’s impressive really that Paul could compose something like this at such a young age, and teach it to his band mates. We can make out a basic but mostly competent bass line (played by Stu), a rhythm guitar (presumably John) and two more guitars (Paul and George).

In a couple of places one of the 6 string guitars mimics a bass-guitar sound (e.g. around 24 seconds in). We debated whether this was George or Paul. Paul could be getting frustrated with Stu’s bass line, or have included the sound in his composition before he showed it to his friends. Or maybe George was already doing something we would see him do much later during the Get Back sessions: filling in the space where he felt a bass line was needed (see the discussion about the bass line for Two Of Us).

According to the Anthology liner notes:

Cayenne is an instrumental composed by Paul McCartney. A good number of the earliest titles written by either Lennon or McCartney, or both, were instrumentals, written in the late 1950s when tunes without a lyric were prevalent.

There’s a Spanish sound to it, and we’re curious what inspired that. It makes us think of Besame Mucho and Hot As Sun (released on McCartney, but written in ‘58 or ‘59).

The entry for Cayenne on the Beatles Bible compares it to The Shadows, but doesn’t specify a song, and we don’t see the connection (we looked through a dozen or so Shadows songs. We did learn that Cliff Richards is gay in the process, though. See this interview with Piers Morgan, and this article).
