Do a little research and you will find out the “little holes” are actually Pot Holes as we know them and a failed attempt of Govt to fix them.
How many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall = how many graves of British soldiers were dug while building Albert and Victoria’s legacy.
Mick Jagger was a frequent visitor to the Beatles' studio sessions. He shows up a few times in Beatle studio videos.
One of the Stones’ first hits was a cover of Lennon/McCartney’s “I Wanna Be Your Man.”
John Lennon also appeared on “The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus”.
Acoustic tiles have holes in them.
That’s what I assumed the lyrics were about.
Another LSD inspired song.
If this theory is correct it can mean only one thing:Donald Trump is the walrus!
That part of the song was based on news headlines Lennon had read (another section of the song was written by McCartney, the “get out of bed, drag a comb across my head” part). The part about “4000 holes in Blackburn, Lancashire” was from an actual news headline in the UK Daily Express in 1967 about a Blackburn roads surveyor counting potholes and commenting that the amount of material needed to fill them all in would “fill the Royal Albert Hall”.
“I told you about the walrus and me, man
You know that we’re as close as can be, man
Well here’s another clue for you all
The walrus was Paul”
- from “Glass Onion”, the Beatles having a little go at the fans looking for hidden clues in their songs.
The Beatles and Stones were rivals, but it was a friendly rivalry. Lennon and McCartney wrote a song for the Stones (”I Wanna Be Your Man”), but then later recorded it themselves as well. Lennon and McCartney also did uncredited backup vocals on some Stones songs (”We Love You” for sure, and possibly “Dandelion” and “Sing This All Together”).
Not a cover. Lennon/McCartney wrote the song in about 5 minutes at the studio the Stones were recording at and gave it to them, so the Stones actually recorded it first. Then the Beatles recorded it themselves later.
“I could be the Walrus, I’d still have to bum rides off of people.” - Ferris Bueller
LOL, in 1967, what songs weren’t LSD inspired?
Was that the original Paul McCartney or the replacement Paul McCartney that said that?
Someone broke into their eatable stash early today.
Chuckle Chuckle. Wow somebody must have been stoned to come up with that interpretation.
No! I am the Walrus!
Holes to fill seats, if ye take my meanin’.
