If you really want to understand the Beatles you need to read this book. It's different than anything I've ever read about them. No Beatle trivia and I'm not a nut job who thinks they were predicted by nostrodomus or in the bible. No one will ever prove what they tried to do, but I think I've made it believable. One thing I promise, if you read it with an open mind you will see the Beatles from a whole new perspective. Oh, and I'm sorry about the five bucks but people don't take anything seriously that they get for free. Regards, Carman

Some kind of religious kind of thing I suppose. Nothing for me. Somebody who doesn't really want to tell what's in his book, usually sells crap. I bet it's some hidden messages thing.

No religion or bizarre theories. This is based on reality. Here's a page I used in my book.
Could They Really Change the World? “the Beatles converged with their era—the sixties generation—in an almost unprecedented way. At no other time in history, or since, has a generation been so connected. The vehicle was rock music. And the Beatles helped create an aural culture. As such, the Beatles, as new spiritual leaders, came to embody the values of the counterculture in its challenge to “the Establishment.” They celebrated an alternative worldview. It was a vision of a new possibility. And they sang and lived this vision for others. Finally, the Beatles had a worldwide power over millions of people that was singular in history among artists. In 1967, with the release of their Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band album, as one critic noted, it was the closest Europe had been to unification since the Congress of Vienna in 1815. Most thought North America could have been included as well. And the Beatles became the embodiment of the Summer of Love with their live global BBC television broadcast of “All You Need Is Love” in June 1967. Approximately 400 million people across five continents tuned in. This type of power was something new. Before, only popes, kings and perhaps a few intellectuals could hope to wield such influence in their lifetimes: “Only Hitler ever duplicated their power over crowds,” said Sid Bernstein, the promoter who set up some of their first concerts in America.” ----The Beatles started a cultural revolution by John W. Whitehead

How about this? Want You(She's so Heavy)
Interpretation:
This song is often interpreted as John singing to Yoko. Although this seems plausible, the sound quality and subliminal messages it contains defies this explanation. To begin, it doesn’t sound like a romantic song. It musically expresses urgency and a sense of desperation, almost a crying out for acknowledgement like someone frustrated over an inability to communicate. As a romantic song these qualities seem more pathetic than appealing.
The final indication of the nature of this song lies in the subliminal background voice throughout the song and especially in the second half (She’s So Heavy) . Buried in the background music repeated over and over is the phrasing: “come” - 03:39 “come together!” - 04:32 “come” - 04:48 “cooooom” - 04:55“ “cooooom”- (05:20) “right now!”- (05:36) “right now!”- 05:45 “right now” - 05:48 “come together now”! - 05:58 “right now!” - 06:00 “come together now!” - 06:36 “right now!” 06:32 “right now” 07:00 “right now! - 07:02 “right now” - 07:04 “right now!” 07:15 “right now!” - 07:28
This obviously makes no sense as a romantic ballad. The “You” John wants is us. He’s telling us how much he wants to join with us in loving unity. So much it’s driving him mad. He wants us to literally come together and start this new world of love and peace.
The significance of the phrase “She’s So Heavy” is a way of expressing the agony he feels over his need to communicate his message. His desire to see the fulfillment of his dream of a humanity of oneness.

There's no need to plug your book all over the board. I will delete any other thread on this subject. Oh, and I'm not convinced about your theory about I Want You. My idea is that John was too lazy to write more words.

One Last Try
“If they didn’t understand the Beatles and the sixties then what….could we do for them now? Do we have to divide the fish and the loaves for the multitudes again? Do we have to get crucified again? Do we have to do the walking on water again because a whole pile of dummies didn't see it the first time, or didn’t believe it when they saw it? “ ----John Lennon

Oh, I think I understand The Beatles. But that does not mean that your and my idea of the truth is the same. I just don't share your thoughts on your interpretations. I don't trust people who are looking for clues everywhere and believe that The Beatles produced music with a meaning. It's just a band, it's nothing special. Just a band that made it very, very big.

Just a band? the government didn't think so.
The paranoid right can sense the Beatles magicand know they are up to something
"Some of the newer Beatle songs... show an acute awareness of the principles of rhythm and brainwashing. Neither Lennon nor McCartney were world-beaters in school, nor have they had technical training in music. For them to have written some of their songs is like someone who had not had physics or math inventing the A-bomb... Because of its technical excellence it is possible that this music is put together by behavioral scientist in some 'think tank'... I have no idea whether the Beatles know what they are doing or whether they are being used by some enormously sophisticated people, but it really doesn't make any difference. Its results that count, and the Beatles are the leading pied pipers creating promiscuity, an epidemic of drugs, youth class-consciousness, and an atmosphere for social revolution."

John Lennon thought so. The rest is irrelevant and kinda ridiculous.

If it was irrelevant and ridiculous why, forty years latter, are millions of people still trying to figure out what they were all about. I admit many interpretations are ridiculous like saying they were predicted in the bible or worse yet people like Chalres Manson, but they stood for a brief time in position to initiate a social revolution and I explain in my book why, where and how it almost happened.

I guess it can be funny. We usually laugh at what we're afraid of or don't understand.
You probably know everthing little trivial detail about the Beatles but not the most important thing they tried to tell us.
