Goodbye Cruel World

Ya know the story about that one?

Lennon liked the first half of one version...and the second half of the other...so he sez to George Martin..."You figure it out"...

The pitch was slightly different in both versions...so George Martin played with the tape speed...and gave it that kinda odd, other worldly sound...

Interesting thing...they NEVER messed with McCartney's stuff...or very rarely...but Lennon's was always open for experimentation, which is what gives his stuff some of it's lasting charm.

I've always been taken by the way both guys wrote and recorded about their childhood memories, "Penny Lane" and "Strawberry Fields"...and how different their approaches are.


Yes I remember you talking about that.

I always thought it was way ahead of it's time as far as the sound and production.

I like some of the guitar licks in the song...but I think I always liked Godzilla better....just a fun song.

In honor of MikeD17 I would ask the mods to rename this thread from "Goodbye Board Im Going To Be Banned Soon " to "Goodbye Cruel World"...

Amen... and RIP...
