I Feel Fine - The Beatles

Lately I have become a big fan of The Beatles, I finally understand why they're so loved worldwide and I learned to appreciate their music in a way I didn't before.

But today listening to a backward version of Revolution 9 there's a lot of references to Paul's supposed death, at first I thought it was a hidden message of hatred from Lennon to Paul. But then I saw the link to a page about a conspiracy about Paul's death.

Supposedly Paul died on November 9th, 1966 in a car accident where he was decapitated and the Beatles were quick to cover up the story and get a Paul look-alike, a Canadian man called William Campbell who had won a Paul look-alike contest. Now looking through all the supposed clues I see there's a lot of hidden stuff that makes a lot of sense... however I personally think it's all a load of bullshit, I have always believed that people love a conspiracy so they found a good one, yes, Paul is the only barefooted Beatle in the Abbey Road cover and yes, he is different to the other Beatles in many other album covers. But, even if you knew about the conspiracy I bet you wouldn't find the clues unless you were looking for them, people see what they want to see.

I also think that if Paul had died, they wouldn't have covered it up, he would have been honored, and the mourning Beatles would have accepted it, because if they really were true friends Lennon and Harrison wouldn't have taken the secret of Paul's death to the grave and certainly Starkey (Ringo for those who don't know) would've said something, I don't think anyone is so coldharted to keep a dear friend's death for so many years. That and hide "inside jokes" and clues on album covers, lyrics, and stuff. THAT'S JUST FUCKING SICK.

I don't believe and to those who do I have nothing against them, but I will only tell them that I am very sad that people think there is ANYONE who would ever do what The Beatles supposedly did.

Paul McCartney, my favourite Beatle, is alive and I am certain of that.
