The Beatles didn't have anything heavy? Erm, ever heard Helter Skelter, I'm So Tired, Revolution, etc? They had a lot of different stuff and this song is really Beatles-like; take it from a die-hard Beatles and Billy fan like me. ;)

very beatles.

[kenzadelphia]

Great under appreciated BJ song, Date a bi-polar borderline chick and it all makes sense. Definitely Lennon inspired but still all Billy.

[IDLERACER]

This recording serves as proof that you don't need Jeff Lynne to actually be present in the studio to make it sound like he was.

[aceste]

this song seems a fusion of  lucy in the sky with diamonds and Hour House of Crosby, Still Nash and young

[HammurabisRain]

Listen closely to the beginning and end of this song. iIt sounds remarkably similar to Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, doesn't it?

[Maestrojosh87]

I agree. The entire song, as well as the rest of the album, for that matter, has a Lennon-esque feel throughout, especially "Living alone isn't all that it's cracked up to be". That section reminds me mostly of "We Can Work It Out" or "Happiness Is a Warm Gun". The Beatles are undoubtedly one of Billy's biggest influences.

i believe this album was supposed to be mainly a tribute to the Beatles and Lennon. I read it somewhere... some people freak out and say "WOAH HE TOTALLY STOLE THAT FROM THE BEEETLES! OMEFGEE!" (not you).

[arcticmint]

@Spankymunoz This is nothing like the Beatles. They have nothing this heavy. The Beatles keep it light and simple.

[gryphonstrom]

@arcticmint - The Beatles most certainly have material this heavy, even if it's hidden in lyrics that, at first glance, may *seem* light and simple. I'm referring only to a portion of their work, by the way - and you can find many examples that, of course, are only light and simple. Furthermore, I believe Spankymunoz was really referencing the feel of the music in general, as some of the songs in the album very definitely have a Beatles sound.

love this song

[klhsmartypants1]

the "F" word is only in the lyrics once, turn on the tv and you will hear it 40X more in a minute
