Beatles: Magical Mystery Tour;Yellow Submarine

Magical Mystery Tour: 11 Songs

I think you said that this album was going to be a total drughead album? I kind of agree. But I kind of love that.
Can I go on this magical mystery thats dying to take me away today, please?
I love how Flying is just all instrumental.
Blue Way Jay kind of scares me, haha.
The music reminds me of that sinister music they play in the background of scary movies when someone is standing on some deserted creepy alley and theres shadows behind them. Yeah...I think ill stay off Blue Jay Way.
There's a fog upon L.A.
And my friends have lost their way
We'll be over soon they said
Now they've lost themselves instead.
Please don't be long please don't you be very long
Please don't be long or I may be asleep
Well it only goes to show
And I told them where to go
Ask a policeman on the street
There's so many there to meet
Please don't be long please don't you be very long
Please don't be long or I may be asleep
Now it's past my bed I know
And I'd really like to go
Soon will be the break of day
Sitting here in Blue Jay Way
Please don't be long please don't you be very long
Please don't be long or I may be asleep.
Please don't be long please don't you be very long
Please don't be long
Please don't be long please don't you be very long
Please don't be long
Please don't be long please don't you be very long
Please don't be long
Don't be long - don't be long - don't be long
Don't be long - don't be long - don't be long.


I dont even need to talk about how much I love I Am Walrus. This is like my favorite song, ever, to quote. Goo goo g'joob.
Strawberry Fields Forever is about a billion times better now that I have actually been to Strawberry Fields. If youre going down to Strawberry Fields, take me down with you..
In a way too complicated way to explain, Hello Goodbye pretty much describes why some of my relationships fail. Hmph.
All You Need is Love needs to be the anthem for every person in the world for the rest of forever. That is all.
 
 
Yellow Submarine: 13 Songs
 
Yellow Submarine was the first Beatles song I EVER heard. And I love love love it. I want to meet some guy that lived in a Yellow Submarine. I cant not bob my head while listening to this song.
All Together Now definitely reminds me of something that would be on the Juno Soundtrack. Haha, I love it in its randomness. See, this is a happy love song.
Hey Bulldog is a great song, mostly because of the lyrics. You know how there are certain songs that the lyrics explain how you feel (yeah I know you do). Well this song explains how I feel at different times:
Sheepdog
Standing in the rain
Bullfrog
Doing it again
Some kind of happiness is measured out in miles
What makes you think you're something special when you smile?
Child-like
No one understands
Jack knife
In your sweaty hands
Some kind of innocence is measured out in years
You don't know what it's like to listen to your fears
You can talk to me
You can talk to me
You can talk to me, if you're lonely you can talk to me
Big man (Yeah)
Walking in the park
Wigwam
Frightened of the dark
Some kind of solitude is measured out in you
You think you know me but you haven't got a clue
You can talk to me
You can talk to me
You can talk to me, if you're lonely you can talk to me

Pepperland, Sea of Time/Holes/Monsters, March of Meaness, Pepperland Laid Waste, Yellow Submarine in Pepperland made me love the Beatles on a whole new level. I didnt expect them to have so much classical-ish instrumental music. Its like a whole different kind of album within the Yellow Submarine album. The music is so beautiful, its like telling a story without words. I listened to these songs while I was laying down on a bench at school, so I was just really to let the music absorb me. And it really was like each song was a story. Pepperland made me envision some nice storybook place, like Alice in Wonderland, where I want to go and everything is cartoon. I love those 7 songs so much and it just made me love the Beatles on a whole new level I didnt even know existed, thanks.





So...whats next?
