Listening intently, I see. Must be something in dem-ise.

Ya know, I'll never forget my middle school music teacher who taught us about the "Paul is Dead" hoax. We watched a documentary on the Beatles and would play certain songs backwords to listen for hidden "satanic" messages or clues to the hoax. If she tried to do that in a school today she'd be fired but, that woman taught us more about what it meant to be a fan of music and that you could have fun with it and still take it seriously at the same time.

Oh Jeez, I've heard it all now. Is there, or what is the hidden meaning of "Norwegian Wood"? Does it mean:

A) Retaliation for not putting out?
B) Larz gets a stiffy?
C) A chair (that he burns)?
D) A house (that he burns down)?
E) Marijuana?
F) A type of rat?

Nope. None of the above. Art_Carnage (I think) got it right a while back. "Norwegian Wood" is a phonetic play on words to disguise the lyrics "Knowing she would", which coincidentally is exactly what the song is about. There is nothing vindictive or devious about the lyrics. It is about the wonderful feeling of someone intimately opening up (possibly) their heart and their personal life to you, albeit for a short time, without actually getting "to know" her, and your loneliness and longing afterwords. The best composers take a complicated subject and make it simple (rather than the other way around), and that is what the Beatles achieved in "Norwegian Wood". A very well written and felt song.
