He did indeed say 'The Walrus was Paul' in the White Album song 'Glass Onion'. However he only did that in order to be nice to Paul since the their attitudes to each other were changing so it's a sort of 'Thanks for everything you did for The Beatles Paul'. Also John was a huge fan of Lewis Carroll but found out 'The Walrus' was the bad guy in 'Alice and Wonderland and The Carpenter was the good one - he got the two mixed up.
@007samtheman Its called the walrus cuz....look at the magical mystery tour jacket picture...they have masks on and john is wearing the mask of ??? .....the walrus, right you are!
this was a nomination? what a bunch of bullshit -- all the unsolved problems in society and people go gaga over celebrity -- and so the world goes down the shitter!!
the thing is, it doesn't matter, think what you want, the more cryptic the message, the more right answers there are. but seriously i think it was pete best.
The line in Glass Onion in which he claims the walrus was Paul was just something John threw in to mess with people's minds because people were so obsessed with finding hidden meanings in Beatles songs. Apparently it worked.
I believe Lennon says "kiss for peace, or smile for peace." Although "piss for peace" is definitely a more amusing interpretation. Absolutely wonderful video though, I can't watch it enough.
Duhhhh thanks for taking the time to respond to a moronic question! I must have blinked when his name appeared on the first screen and did not see or read his name. Thanks again and thanks for publishing this.
