And also sophisticated for that period-- it sounds more like the Rubber Soul period. (Amazing how they would have another transformation every year.)

It's also so moody compared with their usual joyous fun songs.

And I look back and think, "How did we all know about Paul is Dead before the internet!"
None of us kids could even call long-distance then, and yet we all were promulgating the rumors.

The first great internet conspiracy theory... 30 years before the internet.

There's a great crazy website where some guy is STILL claiming this guy walking around with Paul's name is an imposter.

I like it because he's got a bunch of pictures of Paul in the Cutest Ever era.
