Sweet Boy Starting To Realize That Despite All Their "We're The Good Guys" Rhetoric, Heaven's Really

That feeling when the married couple next to you starts squabbling

‘The Big Beat Craze’, Daily Mirror, 10th September 1963

Aw dammit I just found out about the SS Wincest. Time to save my next 90 paychecks.

"You'll never know how what sort of love they had for each other"--my favorite part ❤️

Mike: I saw the ‘Lennon’ play before I came over here and Our Kid comes out of it a wet and rather weedy character, which is absolute bullshit, you know.

Int: Not long after John died, I heard that at a showing of ‘Let It Be’, the audience booed Paul…

Mike: Tragic. That really is tragic because you’ll never know how what sort of love they had for each other. You didn'tneed to put it into words. So it’s sad. And I found the ‘Lennon’ thing, the ‘Lennon’ play in Liverpool, it’s equally sad in the fact that it wasn’t like that for one. They had a healthy regard for each other. John, in his own inimitable style, was like a brother in many respects…trying to tell Our Kid things and communicate with all his things, but you know, Johnny chose, ‘cause that’s the way he was, to put it in public. He chose to wash his dirty linen in public. But you’ll notice Our Kid never answered back, never replied because just as John has his right to do it his way, Our Kid also has his right to do it his way. But it doesn’t mean just 'cause you don’t get in a ring that you’re not–it doesn’t mean that you’re a coward.

Anathema, "I'm looking for a beast"

Adam, "Hello"

Anathema, "A kid with a beast"

Adam, "Hello"

Anathema, "An evil kid with a fearsome, hideous beast"

Adam, "Hello"

(That's where my mind is right now, anyhow 🤣)

Ian Leslie's favorite songs that remind him of John + Paul ❤️❤️❤️

He has Jealous Guy and (Just Like) Starting Over on the list! That is huge! Those songs are both very important to the McLennon story. This is amazing. According to Paul, John told him that he wrote Jealous Guy because of the way he had treated Paul. It was a song of love, asking for forgiveness. (Just Like) Starting Over is also for Paul from John. As far as I know Paul has never talked about this, but his old Wings bandmate, Denny Laine, said that after John died, Paul locked himself in his studio, bawling and playing that song over and over. It obviously means a great deal to him.

One very important song that's missing is the collaboration between Paul and Carl Perkins, My Old Friend. The lyrics came to Carl, almost out of nowhere, and they reminded Paul so much of John that he started crying and excused himself. Carl felt bad but Linda reassured him that Paul finding an outlet for his emotions was exactly what he needed.

(Hopefully I didn't get any facts wrong. I'm having trouble finding everything I'm looking for tonight, to double check.)

Good catch!

I love how Crowley and Aziraphale's teeny little half miracles to hide Gabriel actually worked because when Michael, Uriel, and Saraqael show up at the bookshop they don't recognize him at all. It's such great continuity.

My favorite part:

Michael looking at Gabriel, "Don't I--don't I know you?"

Gabriel, intently, "Yes. You do. I'm the assistant book seller. I opened the door for you."

Done! Here are my very brief immediate thoughts based on the main reason many of us chose to read this book--the possibility of a published author confirming McLennon that goes beyond platonic. It's a fascinating book, never boring, full of deep information that carries you along like the ship John piloted through a massive Atlantic storm (near Bermuda of all places? Could you imagine if John had disappeared in the Triangle?? 😮.) Leslie does not end up with a sexual McLennon conclusion, though I disagree with him based on his very own book. I guess it's only fair though, none of us outside the most intimate of the Beatles circle can be absolutely sure, and that's just a simple fact. He gets as close as possible though, comparing John and Paul to a very deep and meaningful friendship between two French men in the late 1500s, Michel de Montaigne and Étienne de La Boétie, which was also cut short by the death of one, while the other grieved for the rest of his life. In conclusion, the book is beautiful, John & Paul were beautiful, their love was beautiful. Read it, but know that he sees a very complex soul mated platonic love. Just so, you know, you're not disappointed waiting for the secret Liverpudlian wedding reveal. 😉☺️😇

Guys help a Good Omens newbie out, what is Final 15?

My Unhinged Theory That Paul Is a Liar and Actually Instigated the Fateful Meeting Between John and Himself

I will open this tinhat tirade with an invitation to absolutely rip me to shreds with hard facts and discredit the ever loving shit out of this post. Please, please prove me wrong. Please let this be just the insane chain linked events that my mind has conjured all on its own. I only ask that you review the evidence (albeit based on personal anecdotes rife with their own inherent bias) and my own interpretation based on my (woefully limited) knowledge of one Paul McCartney. If you dare to get into this crazy hellhole, then please read on…

tl;dr Paul went through hot girl summer and then scammed Ivan into introducing him to the hot Teddy Boy he kept seeing around.

"What you went through went through this year is without a doubt the most important lesson anybody can learn when they're going through transformation. It's never a perfect ride. Transformation is never perfect. But when you fall you can get back up. You can fall without failing and that's exactly what you learned how to do."
