Ah, yes. The beatles during their 'hey, let's drop acid!' phase.

It's actually considered a classic, just like Bohemian Rhapsody.

I am the Walrus is actually a pretty normal song, discounting the lyrics. This is weird:

How pretentious.

I really find Revolution 9 to be one of The Beatles' better songs, it's definitely innovative for a band of their style and it's fairly light as far as most Avant-Garde compositions go.

Out of all the Beatles songs I have heard, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds is the only one I can't stand. Mainly because to me at least, it doesn't even sound like them.

Ugh... IT'S NOT MUSIC! It's just sound bytes all clumped together. There's no beat. No tempo. No lyrics. No instruments. It's just sound! Gah!

Except there's clearly a drumbeat going on within the song. And there are instruments, everything can be an instrument. Also, lyrics are not a characteristic of music.

Organized sound is music, and Revolution 9 is sound that is organized and composed, I'm sorry, but you're 100% wrong.
