PLEASE!!!!!!!! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/30/07 Why are you all so caught up with the drug/woman issue? Talking about this song this way just makes it loose the magic that the Beatles put in to it. when you think on the lyrics to much, you're forgetting the fact that the Beatles were all about world peace. you cant forget that all of them were on drugs at one point or another. We cant judge this song on their mistakes at the time. Not Drugs... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/26/07 It seems this song is more literal than anyone wants to admit. Not to say drugs didn't have an influence, but that is just too shallow. It's about a man that is finding pleasure in contemplating holding the power over someone's life and all the thoughts and ramifications that come along with it. Listen to the time changes and differences in the tone and tension in the music. Lennon even admitted to this. Incidentally, this is the song that inspired the three-part song "Paranoid Android" by Radiohead. >> | Reviewer: Rumor | 10/24/07 As for Sexual stuff, it sounds more like masturbation when I first head it. That the gun is 'the penis' and when it shots its because the person came. Hence 'Happiness is a warm gun'. Not trying to be a perv or anything, it just sounds like that. And saying 'when I put my finger on your trigger' that sounds like he fingering someone. e__e;; So it can be about heroin, sex or whatever. In either case its a good song. ;] OKAY!!!! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/21/07 okay listen to yourselves... who cares if lennon was high or if it was in some way related to sexual matters! It is a song written for our enjoyment it doesnt matter how! I think this is an amazing song by the by Ok people, seriously... | Reviewer: Aya | 10/23/07 I know everyone has their opinion about this song and everyone thinks it's about different things...you can change it and make your mind think that it's something else...like i'm convinced that this song is actually about cheese and putting money in a bank...oh and of course hand moisturizer...but you know that's just me...(but i really think it's about drugs, shhh) about drugs | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/21/07 I've always thought it was about drugs. But not solely that, more like the fact that drugs can kill. Ecspecially the aforementioned heroine. "Mothor superior jumped the gun" death before one's time. warm gun is a metaphor for the drug being deadly but makes you happy. that's all speculation, but it's definitely about drugs. Happiness is.... | Reviewer: Rose | 10/16/07 Of course Lennon and anyone else who was doing drugs at the time they wrote a song would deny it, but Lennon was using heroin during the years that the song was written...actually during most of the time that the White Album was in production. Sure there are a lot of sexual connotations because some people can describe a sexual high as being similar to a drug induced high...c'mon though..."I need a fix cause I'm going down". That's NOT about a woman. Jump the gun | Reviewer: Hannah | 10/14/07 Its an amazing song, and John Lenon is surely missed. And I like to convince myself that if he was still alive he still wouldn't tell, it burrows into the secret of things and makes it lose its luster.
