Their "fair to middling" tunes usually end up being my favorites, like this one.  Love this one, and most of the other smaller tunes on the White Album.

Is this for all the people in Europe who watched the Super Bowl last night and now at around noon are, well, "so tired"?

I'd like to think Bill was playing this for me - since I've been here working since 11 pm last night!  Haha ...

I'm not a *huge* fan of these guys, but I'm really fond of this song and one or two others.

I guess it's all about context. "I'm So Tired" and a lot of other songs on the White Album are a welcome change from the perfect, polished sound of their earlier work. It's weary and angry but very much from the gut. A lot of Paul's songs, while heartfelt, are arranged and presented for the audience. Lennon at this point seemed to be writing more for himself and for the point of self-discovery. Paul wanted to stick inside the Fab Four world; Lennon wanted to escape that.  

The White Album definitely contains signs of the band's eventual breakup, but it's a great mix of individual styles and voices and one of the best Beatles album. This song is top drawer for me because it's a key part of that mix.

George had My Sweet Lord, Art of Dying, Awaiting on You All, I'd Have You Anytime in the pipeline as far back as '68.

 
I know what you mean.  I was 6 when John died - it's not even a vague memory for me.  I definitely remember George dying, though - remember exactly where I was when I heard.  I've always had a real soft spot for George due to "Here Comes the Sun," which we played at my mom's funeral, per her request.  He wrote some real gems.

I don't mean this to be dismissive of John though.  RIP.

I was beginning to think you would never play any Lennon today.  I'm still just as sad as I did that day....what a world, what a world

The up-side to that is that we got the incredible All Things Must Pass as a result, arguably the best solo album by any Beatle.

Thanks for playing this one RP - here in England it's 2:46am, and this song hits the spot. It's 6:45pm in LA - a funny time to play this song!

The White Album is 1968, not 1963 as it says on the playlist page.

It makes me feel like a serious under-achiever when I realize that I'm 4 years older than John ever made it to. He was at the ripe old age of 28 when he wrote this song.

Here I stand, the goddess of Desire
Set men on fire
I have this power
Morning noon and night it's drink and dancing
Some quick romancing
And then a shower
Stage door johnnies always surround me
They always hound me
With one request
Who can satisfy their lustful habits
I'm not a rabbit
I need some rest


Ladies and gentlemen, Lili von Schtupp!

LOL. Great, great movie. I was barely old enough to see Blazing Saddles when it came out. The theater was packed and people were howling with laughter.
