Reviews for Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da Lyrics

i heard that on street when i'am way back home after school.since then, i've gained confidense & learned to sing just because of that great song.
what a mystery behind..

Look, the song doesn't have to make sense to you. All it really is about these two lovers and their lives... It's really not all that hard to figure out... Or maybe they were high... they did that a lot..
Farewell my friends, this is the end, adieu, adieu, adieu.

This song wasn't written by The Beatles. It was written when there were many conflicts in the group, and they didn't collaborate on their songs anymore. Ob-La-Di Ob-La-Da was written by Paul McCartney only .

P.S. I'm ten years old.

It surprises me that people CAN'T understand this song. It makes perfect sense, when one takes a little bit of time to actually listen to the lyrics and the meaning behind them.

Its the perfect love song, I can't believe that anyone would insult The Beatles so.

you people trying to make sence out of a song THE BEATLES wrote!!some people need lives. lawl. people have been trying to make sence of it for YEARS and if you think you can more power to ya. but it's NOT going to happen. sorry. Please go do something usefull with your life. ok? ;;>____>


Shanti.

My first I thought when I really listened to these lyrics was tranny. But I think it was subconscious and I only just came to the realization the other day. And I LIKE Yellow Submarine.

The reason that it says "Desmond stays at home and does his pretty face" is because when they were recording, they accidently sang it that way, they thought it was funny after playing it back and decided to record it.

What's with all the confusion about genders?
Desmond is male, Molly is female.
It's only in the last verse that they drop the gender roles they play in the rest of the song, and that's more a tribute to the Beatle's drug use than anything else.

song is great wether the ending makes since bout desmond doing his pretty face or not..its up beat and lifting

WTF???? uhhhhh first of all Desmound a guy "Desmond stays at home and does HIS pretty face..." and Molly is a girl "Molly stays at home and does HER pretty face..." and if this isn't enough proof

"Desmond takes a trolley to the jewelry store...
Buys a twenty carat golden ring... (Golden ring)
Takes it back to Molly waiting at the door...
And as he gives it to her she begins to sing..."

So if Desmound is Molly is he/she a scitzo too???
No....... Where you got confused is where it says

"Desmond stays at home and does his pretty face...
And in the evening she's a singer with the band..."
Well in proper english "she" implies to the last women that was talked about which was Molly

i LOVE this song!!!!it is the best song i heard of the beatles!even though people say its the worst song but it isnt!IT IS SO NOT CATCHY! i love it my daddy loves this song!he has this CD and he gave it to me i lsten to it all the time i am so a BEATLES FAN!!!!!I love you guys!Paul the singer is sooooo CUTE!!!

It doesnt matter either way you choose to look at it the beatles still are pioneers of rock-n-roll. You think desmond was a tranny? so what! if he was then id say thats a cool story with an intersting twist at the end. if it's not and it was just an accident then im glad they left it for us to always wonder about.

this is like one of my favorite beatles songs next to i should have known better.
its a catchy one <33
i love the beatles x forever.

Actually, Desmond was a rather pathetic character, trying to scratch out a living as a barrow merchant. His only escape from the drudgery of his existence was to take the drug 'ObLaDi ObLaDa'; an extract from the root of the Lahdee plant, found in the foothills of Tibet. So, the song is merely relating a very vivid hallucination on Desmond's part; complete with some latent fantasies.
