artists for ceasefire!!
So you mean to tell me that every song in the Gimme Some Truth Deluxe Book is accompanied by commentary on its inception, instruments used and musicians who played on the track and then you get to I Know (I Know) and they decide to forgo all of that and end up just including quotes from John about missing England, Paul, old friends, about trying to talk to each other after not seeing each other and having a hard time signing the Beatles dissolution papers?
The jig is UP.

We miss you, Freddie Mercury 🎶
why aren't you posting more song analysis?
Thanks for the message anon!
I hesitate a lot when stating my views due to it being part of the minority on tumblr. (I'm one of those who believe J+P had an explicit love affair), to interpret their songs, I view it from that standpoint....
English is my third language and it takes a bit of work because if you interpret one song, it is usually interconnected with other songs.
Can't Buy Me Love and I Feel Fine as an example. I've always wondered why John was staring at Paul in the beginning of the "I Feel Fine" music video "Baby's good to me, you know", then it kinda clicked, that he might be replying to Paul's song (oh, there she goes, reaching):
In "Can't Buy Me Love" Paul wrote:
I'll buy you a diamond ring my friend If it makes you feel alright I'll get you anything my friend If it makes you feel alright
(very friend coded indeed and then, the question "if it makes you feel alright?" John answers with his song "I Feel Fine".)
In "I Feel Fine" John wrote:
She's so glad, she's telling all the world That her baby buys her things, you know He buys her diamond rings, you know
(John is telling the story in 3rd person "that she's being treated right", the boys were harmonizing on the "I'm in love with her and I feel fine" which is the lover's answer to the girl's claim).
I FIND JOHN AND PAUL ADORABLE ANSWERING EACH OTHER LIKE THIS
I wish I could share more of my views. But I'm scared to be labelled delusional as it is and be asked for receipts to claims I am not ready to show yet....

John smiling at Paul like this will sustain me for 100 years and I hope it sustains Paul too
