Ya know, you get bored sitting 'round doin' nothing for hours at a time in the studio, so you "doodle" around--nothing serious. They could have played "jingle bells" and changed the words for a goof. This wasn't for anybody to hear. They forgot about it five seconds after they played it.

@morganfitzp Jog on you absolute bellend. Take your lame ass feminist dogma elsewhere. Only someone wrapped up in that left-wing tripe uses the word misogyny, like it's akin to racism, a blanket catch-all to trotted out whenever something is perceived to be less than favourable to women. Fucking idiots. It was just a song that revealed the level of his personal jealousy and insecurity. Not hating all women.

Love this song, very cool take!

[aquafinaman123]

yeah, but ironically that was the FIRST song the beatles recorded for rubber soul.

@hotazsun62 "one after 909", the rooftop concert. Done.

[johnnymac497]

@wewillbugyou He was being sarcastic, not trying to sing like himself from a few years ago, which he could have done easily.

[gambit4531]

The Beatles did that like a BOSS!!!!!!!!!

[morganfitzp]

@scottelement : Let me rephrase that: I find this song misogynistic compared to other songs on Rubber Soul that express more nuanced frustration with women, (e.g. "Norwegian Wood," "You Won't See Me," "I'm Looking Through You," etc.) That such a great album ends with this violent message of "Be faithful or I'll kill you" leaves a bad taste in my mouth and runs contrary to what the Beatles were about. After a while, I was like, "What was Lennon thinking?" Then I learned he regretted writing it.

[scottelement]

@morganfitzp make an opinion for yourself.

[charliedontsurf70]

john always said he hated this song.

@redletter2008 well, John and Paul were two big egos at that time, fully focused on themselves, true, but in late 1968, George had several concerts with Bob Dylan and others, if I´m not mistaking, and he quite enjoyed it, so when Paul called him and other Beatles to the studio and presented them the idea of "back to the roots", including some plans of live playing, he was interested in it, at first, at least until that infamous opinion exchange with Paul around 10th January...
