Magical mystery tour movie poster12/26/2023 Brian from Boston, MaJustin from Luray VA.Well said I agree 100%.I don't understand why people think that if a song is about drugs it somehow diminishes its' value.Of course this song is about exactly what you said it was.I do think too many people "try" to find a drug meaning in every song.Some songs however are obvious this being one of them.I think drugs were a part of the creative process for the Beatles.No I am not saying that anyone that takes drugs can write such songs but like it or not drugs were an influence on the Beatles.Take Lucy in the sky for instance.I haappen to think it is about LSd but even if the song had an entirely different title I would still think it was about drugs.Because all one has to do is listen to the imagry of wich Lennon speaks and the general feel of the song.Are you going to tell me that had Lennon never taken lsd that the song would have the same sound and feel?It is after all a psychedelic song.What is a Psychedelic song but a song that is influenced by the use of psychedelics right? There have been many songs penned by songwriters under the influence of drugs,be it marijuana LSD heroin or coke.These songs are not all "about" drugs but we can not underestimate the influence that they have in the creative arts.Jennifur Sun from RamonaLove Paul's bass and Ringo's drumming.Frank from Washington DcWho/what are the spoken words at the end? Are they from a play or movie?.This poster is in excellent condition. Please refer to the imagery (both front and back) as this is the exact poster that is for sale.
