@TATELANDDOG i think he was the guy who took tobacco back to england from america in like the 1500s. He's cursing him because he's addicted to smoking and he wouldn't have cigarettes without him discovering it.
this song has more meaning to it then just the title he is mentally tired from beeing a beatle i think that's what he was trying to explain during the making of this album all the arguments started between the band i believe there is a message in this song when u play it backwards somewere in the beginning 'i wish i was not a beatle' and of course the infamous paul is dead man miss him miss him :p
I'm feeling really tired today i was making my handmade gift for Valentine's Day is nice, find it that i don't have any message in my facebook wall, 396 contacts and is so damn hard for them to say Hello...I need a car cause i don't smoke anyway. Men i'm really tired n' the most awful thing: I have to wake again tomorrow.
Very strong song that John sings very well. Very stripped down sound, it would work well on stage.
And if we're amateur psychoanalyzing, I vote for bipolar, or manic depression. The racing thoughts and inability to sleep despite being exhausted sounds very much like the manic phase of bipolar to me...
The Beatles are more than just a component of me and my life. They are the warmth that I feel when the sunlight hits my skin, the shine to every star I see, the raindrops that fall on places I least expect <3
i told my friend about this song that it was called "I'm So Tired" and she said "Woooow They must of been out of song ideas," and laughed. I smacked her :)
It's so funny that I found this Beatles song right now. I've been suicidally depressed for 4 years now and just three weeks ago, insomnia hit. Can't sleep. So fucking tired, but I can't sleep. I try to force it, but you can't force sleep. When I do sleep, it's shitty, horrible sleep and I wake up a few hours later feeling like I never fell asleep with intense piercing thoughts of suicide... Don't know whether or not it's the end for me. I hope not. I love life.
@tpstrat14 and life loves you back, lennon would say! we all have to die sooner or later, but I figure there won't be Beatles music in the afterlife, so stay as long as you can :) and listen to this masterpiece once more if you can't sleep!
@tpstrat14 It's exactly as hard as you make it yourself. I've seen on your page that you've made yourself unpopular on YouTube by posting negative comments, perhaps you should completely shut down your computer for a few weeks and focus on real people. It's the people in your life that make you happy or unhappy. And no I'm not a shrink :-)
@BroederJos You don't understand anything. I'm not going to tell you exactly who did what to me and when, but you don't understand that no one chooses to be depressed or suicidal. Go sip your tea and live your charmed life. I'm happy for you.

Uh, John stated that similar to I'm Only Sleeping, this song's about having insomnia. In the case of I'm So Tired, he was at a meditation camp and unable to sleep due to doing it so much. He was also pining for Yoko (who was his soon-to-be-wife at the time),
Although, I can see why some would think this song's about Depression, I did at first.
im sooo tired im feeling so upset and althooouugghh im so tired i"ll have another cigarette,god curse sir walter raleigh he was such a stupid git.....john john john ha ha h a so funny dude.
@deb90566 i don't mean to be rude, but the song is not about depression, it's about john being in india and wishing he was with yoko. "i'm so tired i don't know what do, i'm so tired my mind is set on you, i wonder should i call you but i know what you would do" etc.... it's about being in love and not knowing whether the other person loves you back which can lead to "going insane" and having insomnia (trust me, i've been there and its not pretty!)
Paul is dead, man. Miss him! Miss him!

Captures insomnia beautifully. A horrible condition that's so hard to explain. But Lennon does it. And we who have gone through it know it.
