Looking at the "Bless You" lyrics

Oh run me over with a bike

Listening to the Beatles channel on Sirius this morning and this John song came up that I never heard before.

Anyone notice a similarity between this opening and Paul's "Band on the Run"

We'd heard that Brian was queer, as we would have called him, nobody used the word 'gay' then. 'He's a queer.' 'Yes. He's all right, though.' We didn't hold that against him. We didn't really know much about it, there were certain people around but they tended to be the slightly older guys on the scene from what we knew. There wasn't much talk amongst us and our friends about anything like that. Brian was quite a well-known gay, I think. We would go down late-night drinking clubs that we hadn't had access to. They were probably gay clubs, now I think about it, but it actually didn't occur to us at all; there were rather a lot of men there, that's all. But no one ever propositioned me. There was never any bother.

- Paul McCartney in Barry Miles, Many Years From Now (1997)

Thank you @goldslick and @eveepe for tagging me in this trend! Sorry I'm just getting to it now!!

Last song:

Last book: Lady Macbeth by Ava Reid (controversial opinion, I didn't like it very much 😬). I'm also currently reading A Women's History of the Beatles !!

Last movie: I honestly can't remember. I haven't watched a lot of movies this year unfortunately 😅 I'm really excited for the Nosferatu movie to come out next month

Last TV show: Get Back

Sweet/spicy/savory: Savory for sure!!

Relationship status: Single and ready to mingle PLEASE

Last thing I googled: "did Tobias from animorphs ever turn back?" Idk why the thought entered my head but when I was a librarian a few years ago, I read the first animorph book to try and understand why they were popular but that shit was dark!! Wtf are kids reading!? Anyways...

Current obsession: The Beatles/Wings, my school work!!!, and collecting old cameras

Looking forward to: graduating next month and trying to get into a PhD program 🤞🤞

Idk who's done it or who hasn't so I'll tag @big-barn-bed @fkajohnlennon @thebeatles @menlove (don't feel pressured I just never know who to tag AAA!)

On 7 July 1980, Paul, Linda and Laurence went to Superbear Studios in Nice, France to record with Ringo the tracks “Attention”, “Private Property” and “Can’t Fight Lightning”, as well as the track “Love’s Full Glory”, for Linda’s personal project. The songs “Attention” and “Private Property” were McCartney’s contributions to Starkey’s album Stop And Smell The Roses, released the following year. Most of these photographs were taken by Wings guitarist Laurence Juber.
