Have you ever wondered what your favourite Beatles song meant? In this video, I cover the meaning behind a few Beatles songs, all of them exceptionally creative and great at disguising their true meaning.
Songs played:
Eleanor Rigby
Norwegian Wood (This Bird has Flown)
Glass Onion
FACT: Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown) was the first pop music song to ever feature a sitar.
Let It Be was actually based on a dream Paul had when his deceassed mother Mary came to him.
Rocky Racoon, decoded, is about John’s ‘Bigger Than Jesus’ fiasco.
Eleanor Rigby was first called Miss Daisy Hawkins
Yesterday was originally ‘Scrambled Eggs’ (”Scrambled eggs, oh my baby, how I love your legs”)
A lot of Beatles songs, (McCartney compositions) especially on Rubber Soul, are about Paul’s relationship with Jane at the time (i.e. I’m Looking Through You, You Won’t See Me, on Revolver- Here, There and Everywhere, For No One)
Help! was about John’s insecurities.
A Hard Day’s Night is the first Beatles album to feature only Beatles comositions.
Ironically, Eleanor Rigby’s gravestone is near Strawberry Field children’s home by Menlove Avenue- John’s childhood street.

I saw the Beatles on CDs and Posters and I Painted them using Acrylic Paints. I am use to using Oils as they are more forgiving. So the Acrylics are just test runs for me right now.

I made a top 20 before, but it said it was too long and it wouldn’t upload, so I just kind of made it into 2 parts and I changed the songs up a bit.
Hopefully the second part will upload properly because it is just 2 seconds over the amount of time a video can be on here. But if not then you’ll be lead a cliff hanger until i shorten it, which I don’t want to leave you guys hanging. But if thats the case then i can’t really do anything.
Enjoy!

One of John Lennon’s most beautiful songs from his 1971 ‘Imagine’ album
I was dreaming of the past.
And my heart was beating fast,
I began to lose control,
I began to lose control,
I didn’t mean to hurt you,
I’m sorry that I mad you cry,
I didn’t want to hurt you,
I’m just a jealous guy,
I was feeling insecure,
You night not love me any more,
I was shivering inside,
I was shivering inside,
I was trying to catch your eyes,
Thought that you were trying to hide,
I was swallowing my pain,
I was swallowing my pain.
