Let me take you down
'Cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields
Nothing is real, and nothing to get hung about
Strawberry Fields forever
Living is easy with eyes closed
Misunderstanding all you see
It's getting hard to be someone, but it all works out
It doesn't matter much to me
Let me take you down
'Cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields
Nothing is real, and nothing to get hung about
Strawberry Fields forever
No-one, I think, is in my tree
I mean, it must be high or low
That is, you can't, you know, tune in, but it's all right
That is, I think it's not too bad
Let me take you down
'Cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields
Nothing is real, and nothing to get hung about
Strawberry Fields forever
Always, no, sometimes think it's me
But you know I know when it's a dream
I think, er, no, I mean, er, yes, but it's all wrong
That is, I think I disagree
Let me take you down
'Cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields
Nothing is real, and nothing to get hung about
Strawberry Fields forever
Strawberry Fields forever
Strawberry Fields forever

But I think this is one of those songs that hit you hard when you're not expecting to hear them. I get goosebumps even when I come across this while I'm shuffling my Beatles playlist, so I can't imagine what I'd feel if I hear this on RP out of the blue. [ Reply ]

Kind of funny but I spent a few hours last night listening to all the different versions of this song on Youtube. Quite a story behind this song, now I know where the two takes are mixed together. It just hit the 6th year anniversary of the last time it was played on RP. I am going to request it. edit: well, looks like the "request song" link has been removed, guess I won't request it after all. [ Reply ]

Awful scan and quite a crude, un-sophistcated image (with a few errors in the drawing/cropping/lyrics) but a very personal piece of artwork for me. Long story short the Beatles music gave me back my artistic inspiration (what little I had of it in the first place, anyway!) This is dedicated to their wonderful music (and especially George Harrison who was my favourite of the Fab Four). [ Reply ]

andionita Apr 21, 2008 - 03:22	Instead of 10-godlike I would put 10-Strawberry fieldiesh foreverish Hey, btw, I would be curios to find out why isn't this song aired anymore. 60s pshychedelia not appropriate these days? [ Reply ]

DrLex Jul 23, 2006 - 13:09	I can't remember how many times I played the Blue Album on my dad's old turntable as a little kid, just to wait for this song to enchant me once again. More than 16 years later it hasn't lost any of its magic. [ Reply ]

eddief May 05, 2003 - 14:04	Originally Posted by johndmessner: In addition, I love the classical instruments in the arrangement. They add so much life and sophistication to the song. The music paints a beautiful picture in my mind. That string arrangement always slays me as well. It makes the song very mysterious. I would have loved to have been in the studio when they were recording that one. [ Reply ]
