EXCUSE ME?!?

WHY ARE WE NOT TALKING ABOUT THIS MORE?

John: "my Cheri my pau pau... My pau Paul..."

Basically it's just John remembering the Paris trip and singing in French.

This is from his Dakota home recordings

Can't believe Paul really said "in spite of all the danger... I'll do anything for you" and John still doubted him

People say Paul was the sentimental one and John was the cynic, but it was John who wrote:

Have you heard? The word is love.

And Paul who wrote:

You gave me the word, I finally heard

Hey fellas!!! Wham bam pow or whatever! I’m Loony Lupin on Twitter- I’m sure half you all don’t know me though 😔

Either way I want McLennon proof and I mean every aspect. The love, lust, obsession, hate, anger, frustration, self loathing, sadness.

Because that’s what makes it beautiful and special to us in the end of the day :)

Yes, this man is entirely immovably hetero. (Also, they clearly hate Tom Snyder which is entirely justified.)

Where is that John quote where he’s like I was trying to put it out there that I was gay or whatever? I’m going to @ people here in the hopes they can help me find it. Apologies for the terrible etiquette.

Edit: Thanks to @javelinbk, here it be:

Anyone else find it wild that John and Paul wrote With a Little Help from my Friends while Jane was away and John was basically living at Cavendish? I'd be pissed too when I got back if I was Jane.

"What do I do when my love is away?"

"Does it worry you to be alone?"

"How do I feel by the end of the day?"

"Are you sad because you're on you own?"

"No! I get by with a little help from my friends."

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

It’s been years, and I’m still trying to figure out how it went from this:

(September 20, 1969 Meeting)

Then we were discussing something in the office with Paul and Paul was saying to do something, and I kept saying, ‘No, no, no’ to everything he said. So it came to a point that I had to say something. So I said, ‘The group’s over, I’m leaving.’ Allen was there, and he was saying, ‘Don’t tell.’ He didn’t want me to tell Paul even. But I couldn’t help it, I couldn’t stop it, it came out.

— John Lennon, Lennon Remembers, 1970

I’d said: ‘I think we should go back to little gigs – I really think we’re a great little band. We should find our basic roots, and then who knows what will happen? We may want to fold after that, or we may really think we’ve still got it.’ John looked at me in the eye and said: ‘Well, I think you’re daft. I wasn’t going to tell you till we signed the Capitol deal’ – Klein was trying to get us to sign a new deal with the record company – ‘but I’m leaving the group!’ We paled visibly and our jaws slackened a bit.

— Paul McCartney, The Beatles Anthology, 2000

So everyone went, “Gulp!” The weight was dropped, our jaws dropped along with it, everyone blanched except John, who coloured a little and said, “It’s rather exciting. It’s like I remember telling Cynthia I wanted a divorce.”

— Paul McCartney, From “Many Years From Now” by Barry Miles, 1997

To this:

Why do you think he [Paul] has lost interest in Apple?

That’s what I want to ask him! We had a heavy scene last year as far as business was concerned and Paul got a bit fed-up with all the effort of business. I think that’s all it is. I hope so.

— John Lennon interviewed by Roy Shipston for Disc and Music Echo (February 28, 1970)

INT: I asked Lee Eastman for his view of the split, and what it was that prompted Paul to file suit to dissolve the Beatles' partnership, and he said it was because John asked for a divorce.

JOHN: Because I asked for a divorce? That's a childish reason for going into court, isn't it?

— John Lennon interviewed by Peter McCabe and Robert Schonfeld at the St. Regis Hotel, September 5, 1971

#(In the span of like a year)#(Like I’m in confusion)#(Do we want the divorce or don’t we? LOL.)#John Lennon #Paul McCartney #Lennon/McCartney #The Beatles #(“We’re playing those MIIIND GAAMES together”)#(There was never a dull moment with these two)#1969 #1970s

So I was looking through some photos of the bugs in Bangor in August, 1967, and I found this one:

Upon closer inspection, I noticed John and Paul seem to be wearing the same shirt -- green with purple flowers.

Then I thought that maybe John was just wearing the same shirt he wore during the Sgt. Pepper launch party back in May, which is very similar except that it has ruffles down the front.

Here's another photo of Paul's shirt:

I started looking for more photos to see if I could get some with John's robe open, and here's what I found:

They were wearing two of the same shirt. And I'm not sure if this is a wide-known fact already, and I'm just late to the party, but I thought it was very sweet. And it DOES confirm that sometimes they weren't clothes-sharing, and that they just tended to buy the same things. But still, I think it's a very intimate thing.

Because they'd just had their domestic time in Cavendish, Jane returned home from America, and then they go off to Bangor and they pack the same shirt... And Brian hadn't died yet. Things were relatively Good.

A final photo of them together, the shirts on full display.

#idk what this means tbh but its been on my mind since last night #and im not saying it was necessarily intentional #but imagine them noticing #im soft for them #paul mccartney #john lennon #john and paul #the beatles #mclennon #lennon/mccartney #1967 #bangor #clothes sharing

It’s cool. I thought it made one good point, which was, at that time, I was getting accused of being a bit, sort of, “Oh the cute one and all he wants to do is sing happy songs.” Which is a very difficult rap. Because you go, “What’s wrong with that?” But in the movie, my character says to John, “At least I’m bloody touring! You’re just sittin’ in the bloody Dakota!” I’m glad they said that for me, although I never said it to him. but that was a good answer to that sort of criticism at the time. [But] they made up [most of the film]. I wish we’d gone to Central Park and smoked dope and listened to the musicians. We had some good times, but [they were] much more regular.

Paul on the movie Two of Us (2000)

The Beatles Mascot Airport, Sydney-Leaving For London -1 July 1964"

One of my favorite J/P moments. Something about how Paul stops mid-sentence, and the dreamy look that comes over his face gets me every time. It's just so... genuine and sweet. There's lots of instances I've seen of people losing Paul's attention at the sound of John's voice, but this one stands out for me 😍

And, bonus- "Get your hand off my knee". Aw, snap. Good for you, Paul.
