I think the music express the fact of some understanding, enlightnment (how is it spelled?). Didn´t anyone of you feel strange when some people you know die, and then you see the dead body, and you can imagine yourself in that process (passing by). You think about what would you feel at the transition. How would it be. "I know how it is to be dead" Anyway, who lost someone must have felt pain, missing that person. "I know what is like to be sad". You´ve been on the two sides, even the fact that the first one is only an introspective experience. This way, you may figure that nothing much is known by ourselves, and there is a lot to learn to reach nirvana/enlightnment. In this way, you may consider yourself as a baby, unborn people (i´ve never been born - i don´t know ANYTHING until now). "When I was a boy everything was right" - there was no doubt: we thought we know EVERYTHING. Then, you´re ready to go, to go out and learn by yourself, from a new perspective. The path has been opened from some master." know that I'm ready to leave 'Cause you're making me feel like I've never been born." It´s only a trip, uh? Songs about Life | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/1/09 I don't know if I can see any relation here to an acid trip, although this may be true. About it being random - i can't agree to that. I've heard this song before, but it's only after life happens that songs start to talk to you, and have relevance and meaning in your life, and cease to just be fun sing-alongs. I find this song pretty haunting, especially as its paired with an upbeat tempo and melody. I have to agree with Adrian here. This woman is drowned in her own sorrows. She can't see outside of herself. She's consumed with morbid thoughts, and her lover here is just about fed up with the constant negativity. He tries to shake her out of it, give her some perspective - that everyone experiences these feelings, but she doesn't shake loose. He sees someone whose following their own tail, stuck in a pattern of endless self-pity. So he cuts out. This reminds me of the metaphor St. Exupery illustrates in his book, about the different people the little prince meets as he travels to different 'planets.' Each one is stuck in their sphere, and can't see beyond it. That's what rock is all about | Reviewer: Julian | 4/28/09 I can't take the words of the song separatedly to the music. The effect resides in the dramatic intention as much in what the song says as through all the music as a conjunct, specially the drum. I absolutely love this song. Classic Song of our Time | Reviewer: Tahoe Rob | 3/4/09 This is such an important song for describing the individualistic dynamics of modern love. The Black Keys have an amazing cover, which is more of a reinterpretation of it put to their own style. Definitely worth a look for fans of the Beatles, especially of this great song! Brilliant lyrics! | Reviewer: Lily | 11/10/08 I heard a cover of this song by Snake river Conspiracy. Their version is really good. I haven't heard the Beetle's one. But from what I have read and what people have told me, it's a brilliant song. actually (its true response) | Reviewer: alec | 11/6/08 actually man, it is true that they were with peter fonda on acid. however, george was tripping right out and fonda was comforting him. fonda revealed that he actually died once as a kid for about five minutes (possibly drowned, i'm not sure). anyway, george was comforted by fonda's consolation, but john was outright offended. he thought that fonda was patronizing george, and approached fonda and said 'jesus man, you're making me feel like i've never been born', and was all 'lets go george'. i'm pretty sure that's what happened, anyway. it's in this book called A Hard Day's Write, which explains how all the Beatles' songs were written. john was always cynical about the rich and famous, and very skeptical of the spiritually authoritative (for example 'sexy sadie', about the maharishi) Cleanest, Crispest Recording | Reviewer: Adam S, | 11/19/07 Ive listened to each and every recording from our dear Beatles.....from bootleg recordings from the late 50's to the "Black Album" (bootleg of White Album) and She Said, She Said is by far the most pleasing to listen to again and again - the crispness of George's strat. to the time changes thruout and silly psychadelic lyrics put this track #1 on my list, right up there with Golden Slumbers on Abbey Road. ? | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/9/07 listened it without paying attentions to the lyrics, and i understood "making me feel like i've never been born" as something positive. (times, when it was all allright... ) It's true... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/28/07 It's true what the previous person said about it being an LSD trip. The Beatles were tripping with Peter Fonda when he said "I know what it's like to be dead." Lennon was immediately taken with that statement, however, George Harrison was completely freaked out by the statement and hencforth waas freaked out by Peter Fonda, as well... fools | Reviewer: Alex | 5/17/07 most of the lyrics came from tripping on LSD with peter fonda.
