#2-"A DAY IN THE LIFE"-THE BEATLES
THE LYRICS COME STRAIGHT FROM THE MORNING PAPERS HEADLINES-WRITTEN BY LENNON AND SUNG WITH A DETACHED EXISTENTIALISM THAT INTENSIFIES THE SADNESS OF THE SEEMINGLY TRIVIAL EVENTS DESCRIBED IN THE SONG।MAYBE MAKING THE GRADE ISN'T WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT AND KNOWING HOW MANY HOLES IT TAKES TO FILL THE ALBERT HALL IS JUST MEANINGLESS DATA WITH NO PRACTICAL OR USEFUL PURPOSE।WHY ARE OUR LIFES FILLED WITH ALL THIS INFORMATION THAT LEADS NOWHERE ? IT'S A GREAT QUESTION ! THE EMPATHY THAT JOHN SING IT WITH SENDS SHIVERS UP THE SPINE.
PAUL CHIMES IN WITH HIS PSUEDO MIDDLE 8-DESCRIBING HIS MOURNING।
WAKES UP,HAS A SMOKE,COMBS HIS HAIR,MAKES THE BUS IN SECONDS FLAT !
-THEN SOMEBODY?-SPEAKS AND GOES INTO A DREAM । .............
THE BRIDGE BETWEEN THAT PRODUCER GEORGE MARTIN CREATED WITH A FULL ORCHESTRA AND 10 PIANOS HITTING THE SAME CHORDS MARKS THE END OF THE
GREATIST POP SONG OF ALL TIME AND THE APEX OF THE BEATLES ENTIRE BODY
OF MUSICAL WORK। P। HOLLY 10/16/07
