prooves paul and the beatles could have sang anything......why they broke up........they were gold..........answer Yoko..dont believe me......find cynthia lennon reading a book by her about the beatles and her ,john and julian..............ive always despsed yoko for the things she did.even heard julian in an interview saying she knew exactly what she was doing (damn bitch).cyn was kind and didnt mention what yoko said about julian comig aft john died.she flat said i guess he wont come if u do.
Yes, you people nailed it. Paul PROVED that the Beatles could write ANYTHING when he penned this song. ANY style of music; it didn't matter. And yes, I do believe this song was the true blueprint for hard rock, and heavy metal. The Who be damned.
@GergelAni I think he was more referencing the fact it was just a song (Any song is a noise) because he said that quote in context with the whole Charles Manson thing to do with the song. John did a lot of the instruments on the track, I doubt he HATED it.
John couldn't scream like this. Not with with a low, high and raw tone at the same time. No one can scream like Paul. Listen to Monkberry moon delight, Oh darlin' or Oh woman (oh why). Like Helter Skelter, they are impossible to sing. Only Paul is able to do that...
Someone went through a lot of trouble to make an video of something that never happened. Too many loops and close-up shots of Paul's lips out of sync with the words.
Then there is the ending with John Lennon shouting out "I got Blisters on my fingers" using Ringo's voice. The funny part is that who ever created this, put a lot of emphasis on that last line.............Only to use the footage of the wrong Beatle shouting out that famous line.
At the end, the part with the "blisters," Lennon is shown at the mic, but wasn't Ringo the one who said it? And yes, I know, the video segment is from the "Let It Be" film, but as a bit of trivia, I'm pretty sure that last vocal line was Ringo Starr.
@upchuck69 I've been listening too metal for 10 or so years, but befre that it was these guys, i never thought of it that way before.....I agree though, now that me and my beer think about it lol, your right!
you are correct radstainforth and it was a song that Paul McCartney wrote because he saw an article about a band being really heavy and this song was originally going to be a blues song if you look on here but developed to be hard rock to heavy metal by that standards. I love this version and glad it wasnt just a blues song. :)
@radstainfourth, you seem to be giving out misinformation. The occurrence of the "helter skelter" graffiti by Manson's followers was actually brought on by what Manson thought the Beatles were telling him in this song. He thought that the Beatles were speaking about the "race war" that in Manson's mind was to take place in the near future. Please research before you try to tell other people the meaning if good music
@MrCunterm53 Yes, you are absolutely right, I stand corrected, and I bow to your superior wisdom ... let me now return to my research ... you're welcome to join me ...

Distanced himself from it as much as he could telling everyone he had NOTHING to do with it, that it was 100% John's work and not his.
