I wasn't a big fan of this confection at the time and really resented it's chart dominance of Walrus but whatever. It's actually grown on me over the years but c'mon, seriously?ħ) Baby You're A Rich Man. Lennon may have been high as a kite but it sure didn't damper his creativity.Ħ) Magical Mystery Tour. Another anthem that shoulda been a single. Great Horn charts!ĥ) All You Need Is Love. For the Beatles, 1967 was the year of the anthem and this exhortation to love really is all you need.Ĥ) A Day In The Life. This one blew everyone's mind.ģ) Strawberry Fields. I really want to consider this and Penny Lane as one entity but that would be a disservice to both tunes. I know this is the Holy Grail for many Lennon fans and if it's any consolation, only the thinnest of lines separates the two.Ģ) Penny Lane: I loved this song as a teenager and it still gives me the feels 50 years on. Paul's English travelogue was wondrous to a boy living on a tropical island.ġ) I Am The Walrus. Why this psychedelic fever dream appealed to an impressionable teen-aged mind I'll never be able to rightly explain. The funny thing is, it failed to encourage any drug use. Here's my list, in two parts, because as usual, I say too much:ġ5) When I'm Sixty-Four: McCartney best of his trio of British Music Hall numbers (the other two being Your Mother Should Know and Maxwell's Silver Hammer). It's light and breezy and camp enough to be an enjoyable experience.ġ5) She's Leaving Home: McCartney's stylistic follow-up to Eleanor Rigby lacks the former's magnificently clear structure and poetic lyrics. Still, it's a song that any other composer would have sacrificed an arm and a leg to have been able to write.ġ4) Getting Better: Paul was the driving force behind SPLHCB. John was in the process of putting his own life ahead of the Beatles, George was deeply into Indian philosophy and Ringo was dissatisfied. Paul's premise was of placing the album 20 years after the band was formed, which would make it around 1980. So, in Getting Better, Paul from the future was looking back at this difficult time for the band and reassuring his band-mates that it would, indeed get better.ġ3) Hello Goodbye: as a child I loved the song. Then as a teenager I semi-rejected it as too simple for its period. I re-appreciated it as an adult, especially for its vocal harmonies. The Beatles' voices blended together in a magical way and this was one of the best examples of it.ġ2) Baby You're A Rich Man: I stand by your description - my feelings exactly.ġ1) Being For The Benefit Of Mr. All lyrics are property and copyright of their respective authors, artists and labels.Kite: the prevalent feeling of SPLHCB album is that of a Sunday in a British holiday town, like Brighton or Bournemouth.

Our blaze of glory turns ordinary over night Oh what a marvel to see our dreams so realizedīut all these bright lights run together after a whileĪnd our blaze of glory turns ordinary over night The whole world stares up in wonder at the night sky I curse the heavens for pulling you away from meĪt the same time, I pray that you’ll find everything you seek
#SLEEPING AT LAST COUNTDOWNS SERIES#
When did my life become a series of countdowns?
I brush the dust off, gain composure for another round Said with a smile for the cameras at the countdownīut if I’m honest, I am seconds from breaking downĪs you orbit, gravity throws me to the ground
“I am happy, I am thankful and I am proud” #sleeping-at-last Sleeping At Last - Countdowns Lyricsfolder Home Lyrics Submit Sleeping At Last - Countdowns Lyrics Sleeping At Last - Countdowns Lyrics | lyricsfolder
