Coming from a storm he created himself. The orchestra part was on him and he even directed them. Without it, John's song wouldn't have gone so far, that's what made them a great team

The two songs= It’s psychedelic reality vs everyday realty

Apparently Paul’s house in London was the ultimate party house. Everyone partied there and just slept wherever. That all changed when Linda entered his life. God rest her soul.

I knew a guy named Malcolm Wild and he said he and his band mate went to Paul's and called to him from the gate, and he came out... After the bobbies came first. But then he talked to them and sent the cops away, and they talked awhile longer. They shared Jesus with him and he knew more than them, Malcolm and Alwyn said. ("Well he knew but he could not say"?)

Pauls part works perfectly in the song as a bit of hope to the sadness to johns lyrics, its about life and pauls psrt is life too... plus he gets high and goes back to johns dreamy part. If the 30 seconds of paul was a full song id hate it but as another layer of A day in the life it improved the masterpiece. Also Paul came up with the crescendo parts!

Paul wasn't a vegetarian in 1967 (and it really had nothing to do with the video anyway). Paul's part is crucial and quite great. The "John Cale" part (the orchestra) was Paul's idea as well. John had no idea how to turn his song fragment into a whole song. A Day in the Life was definitely a 50/50 Lennon/McCartney song.

I always took "the day in the life" to be the battle between downers (John's part) and uppers (Paul's part). Clearly, Paul's part is caffeine or cig inspired. As Pete Townshend had said in the lyric for 415: "uppers and downers, either way blood flows".

Oh, Nico, Paul's part makes the song. The song opens in this melancholic dream-space, lingering in despair and confusion. The orchestra is a mix of all the intense emotions we can feel in the face of that. The Paul bit is waking up. It's a typical morning routine, which seems like a respite because it's so jolly and self-assured. But then it completely falls apart. It slips back into John's dream, and we leave the song submerged in disassociation. The song only works with all of these parts.

Nico wasn’t fit to tune Paul’s guitar.

Sounds like Paul took pity on Nico the junkie.

We rarely talked about Lennon, but the neighborhood was abuzz when Paul had something coming out. In fact, I preferred George’s albums and Ringo’s singles to what John did.

Let's poll the world population and ask who has heard of Nico and who has heard of Paul McCartney.

What is to dislike about a day in the life?

The Beatles is my favourite band and Nico was one of the greatest artists to me. Almost all of her albums are classics. Please, go and hear her compilation The classic years, wonderful! But Nico was very controversial too, that Paul McCartney thing was nothing compared with other things that Nico said or did. Anyway, yesterday i saw a video like this where someone said that some people asked Ringo about Lou Reed that said he hates The Beatles. Ringo said that he likes Lou. It's only an opinion!

Nico who?????

Nico has never been an icon

Who? Exactly…like history gives a s-t who she was

From a pop legend to someone ive never hear of 🤷‍♂️

Was Nico famously a carnivore?

Nico? Nico, who? It was nice that McCartney took this homeless person in but its too bad she had to be ungrateful and take advantage of his kindness.

Pauls part works great to complement Johns verses. Alone I dont think id care for Pauls part. Having said that Paul wrote such a wide variety of different sounding songs. Some i absolutely love, some I dont care for at all. Paul was and still is a genius. I think of all 4 as geniuses. It was like being dealt a lucky hand in a card game. A royal flush.

Why be musically insulted by someone as talentless as Nico? I'm guessing Paul wasn't as he let Nico stay ar his place for weeks. And even if he was, after generously offering Nico free room & board at his (most likely) Cavendish Ave London (premier location) home, he had the satisfaction of kicking her talentless butt to the curb. How do you like that for "truth hurts", eh femme fatale? BTW...did you write that song? 😂
