And to me, war was the big Satan", said bassist and lyricist Geezer Butler. "It wasn’t about politics or government or anything. It was Evil itself. So I was saying 'generals gathered in the masses / just like witches at black masses' to make an analogy. But when we brought it to the record company, they thought 'Walpurgis' sounded too Satanic. And that's when we turned it into 'War Pigs'. But we didn't change the lyrics, because they were already finished."

I'll Be Back (song)
"I'll Be Back" is a song written by John Lennon, with some collabration from Paul McCartney (credited to Lennon–McCartney). It was recorded by the English rock band the Beatles for the soundtrack album to their film '' A Hard Day's Night'' (1964) but not used in the film. This song was not released in North America until '' Beatles '65'' five months later. Structure According to musicologist Ian MacDonald, Lennon created the song based on the chords of Del Shannon's " Runaway" which had been a UK hit in April 1961. Author Bill Harry also wrote: "He just reworked the chords of the Shannon number and came up with a completely different song".

The fade-out ending also arrives unexpectedly, being a half stanza premature. Th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
