Reviews for Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds Lyrics

wow i love the name they use in the song it is so creative and awesome!!! Everyone should be named Lucy! It rules!! That is my theme song AND ring tone! (just so we are clear, my name is lucy) lol

Favourite song of all time. This song was actually about John lennons son drawing a picture of a girl that he liked in his class at school and he drew a picture of her in the sky with diamonds... She was quite obviously called Lucy... It does also mention drugs but sometimes you gotta look at these things in a positive way and not that they were all high at the time! <3

K,

Reality check people.
Almost every song on the radio or popular song has some mention of drugs. Who really cares if they were on drugs or not. This is a really great song so just enjoy it. Also, for those commenting that theyo get high and listen to this song, I get your point but honestly, you shouldn't say that stuff. Especially because there are 10 year-olds on here. Drugs are bad for you and obviously you are only listening to your friends because even one time of doing drugs can cause serious health conditions and even death. Its all risk factor and what level of risk you're willing to take. Back to the point, though. It doesn't matter if they were on drugs or not, it's an awesome song so stop hating and bragging about going on drugs because that's certainly not something to brag about.

But I personally will be dropping Acid to morrow and Plan on listening to this ....MULTIPLE TIMES. Its a beautiful song with or without the Drug Correlation.

Peace
Love
Unity
Respect

Ok none of you can say anything because your all like 7 years old lol drugs are bad wahhh Wahhabi my mommy says that people arent nice outside of my white suburban home... Anyone tried LSD for your info it's nin addictive and non habit forming sure u do like 10 hits youll mess yourself up but everything in moderation.. And ps people cared in the 70s it wasn't amsterdam there were rules so little kids who listen to rock and roll go listen to Justin bieber or Disney channel u don't know what your talking about

they weren't on drugs. john lennon wrote this song when he was inspired by a drawing his son julian brought home from school one day, he described it as 'lucy in the sky with diamonds'. the title having the acronym LSD is a coincidence.
even if they were on drugs.. so?

I understand everybody else's ideas, and heres my own, The Beatles, John Lennon especially loved messing with the tabloids heads, and heres a great example of him teasing them, I reckon yes this is about the hallucinogenic drug, but I believe its captured by Julians drawing :P

I love the song and honestly don't care about the drug correlation. Buut needing a humanities class recently, I took history of rock and roll and a specific question on a quiz was "What is the drug reference in the song". I don't think it is that people hate the song or want to ban it. It's interesting history, and yes lots of people did LSD back then, but NOT everybody! <3

If anyone has bothered to notice Nixon is out of office, it is 2011, and I really can't believe people are still debating if someone was on drugs or not when they wrote the song.

I lOVE THE BEATLES

well. Now, I will keep going with my job. This song is actually the first beatles psychedelic public job and also a really interesting one. There actually 3 belives about this song:
It's based on trips.
It's based on Julian's draw.
And no real belive( doesn't care)
But I ask my self. Why not to belive in both? since both happened by the same time, isn't it the most logic answer? After all both belives have proves: the draw exists and they made drugs; Lennon loved his son and also took drugs.

kid you shouldnt talk like that, I'm 14 and I have posted on: across the universe, sexy sadie, I me mine, fool on the hill, prudence, hello goodbye, bulldog, I'm the walrus and now here and I have respect for the people which post here and I dont tell the people that they fuck themselves, I also know the beatles an their music better than any insolent 10 years kid also my posts are planted in a more psichological way based in each beatle personality n' time rather than completely focusing in lyrics.

Who gives a damn fuck if they did it on LSD,like really,almost all god damn people did LSD back then!those of you who think it damn matters,you might damn well change your god damn minds,almost NOTHING god damn mattered back then!I`m ten and I know a whole god damn lot more than some of you older retards,all who think it god damn matters can just fuck theirselves!God damn some of you older idiots!PEACE,I`M OUT!!!!

it is a nice song so it doesnt really matter if its about drugs or not, and if it is what do you get for proving that a medal? my ppoint is that it is a song and if you like it thats great but if you hate it dont go hateing on it!

I think the song is great! I know doing drugs is bad but it is over and done with and they produced a great song. I think that is shouldn't be banned just because it is initiled lsd if that was the case then many songs would be banned for just mentioning drugs like lds. It is a great song because of them being so high while making that song. Give them a round of applause instead of hating.

LSD what the ... well I am an artist (an artist is who express himself not a man who knows how to draw, i also know how to draw) but if there is some thing a bit annoying is that people try to say that your art is something that it isn't, it isn't julian's draw, it isn't LSD, and it isn't any other thing, what's up men its not that groovy that people come here to say "It's the draw", "It's the drug" also if it was, then each thing made a great high groovy psichedelic rocking song" so please shut up, PEACE!
