      Revolver mentions death on exactly half the songs on the album. You wrote that it mentions death in most of the songs. Half is not most. Therefore, you were wrong, and thus fallible and ultimately human. I hope that you do not feel too disgraced by your lack of accuracy.

    John's references to death are more often about the literal death of a person.
    Paul's references to death are more often not: for instance, "a love that will never die" in both And I Love Her, and Here, There, and Everywhere; or "dying to take you away" in Magical Mystery Tour; or the "dead of night" in Blackbird".
    There are of course, exceptions for both.

      i mean, the title says "when they wrote about death", so naturally, that's what anybody would expect. Maybe you should've just titled it "when they mention death", to give a more accurate impression. I don't think so so many people "misunderstood" it. Maybe see the bigger picture + should check if your title can be improved. No hate, though

    • @FernieCanto

      The average youtube viewer, after watching a video that consists exclusively of words "die", "death", "dying", etc. from Beatles songs, concludes: "This is clearly a serious, academical research, and therefore it's inaccurate, and it's *my moral duty* to correct it in the most obnoxious way possible."

      @@kingsly3690 A large amount of people believed that Paul died in 1966 and that the Beatles replaced him with a doppelganger (a look-alike). The band references the conspiracy theory in post-Revolver songs. The most cited examples are "Strawberry Fields Forever", where it sounds like Lennon is saying "I buried Paul" at the end, and the cover for Abbey Road; a depiction of a funeral where Lennon is the priest or a god, Starr is a mourner, Harrison is the gravedigger, and McCartney is the corpse.
