it totally has that kind of wankishness that ppl who don't like the Beatles talk about

like so many of their songs, it's not about anything, it doesn't mean anything

Outside of the Krishana poo poo, he was a pretty chill dude who liked race cars. Check out the Scorsese doc on him that came out a few years ago. "Living in the Material World"

To me The Beatles are musical oatmeal, rarely offensive to the palette but not particularly exciting either.

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

He shunned a lot of the weird Krishna stuff and took a lot of heat from them for not shaving his head and proselytizing at air ports but they gladly took his cash donations. Next to Ringo he's the most "human" of the Beatles

Anyway I think people already gave the answer, which is that help was made for a movie and rubber soul was made because they wanted to make some music

George was looking for God and he took the long and stupid road due to his fixed conception of what christianity is and must be.

Oh well we got some drat good music out of it.

Yeah this is it. Plus Rubber Soul was their first album where they able to stay at the studio for a prolonged time instead of taking breaks for touring engagements.

I knew there was an album before Rubber Soul that was significant for having a change in tone due to their weariness of touring. I thought it was Help! But it was Beatles for Sale. My bad.

I’m drunk

I don’t mean to imply anything about any other of the canonical and non canonical British Invasion artists

What I mean to suggest is compare the worst track on help, which is clearly the terrible cover dizzy miss lizzy, to the worst track on rubber soul, the misguided but intriguing run for your life

I think I brought up in another thread how something like Run For Your Life can go through a transformation from seen as universally misogynistic to almost female empowerment or 'redeeming the song' through just a change in singer.

Consider this version of Run For Your Life
