("No one I think is in my tree...") It is a statement of recognition of the fact that no one can truly know the conscious mind of another. And it is a surrender to, and acceptance of, that fact. At the same time it is an expression of longing to have the ability to truly share your conscious experience with another. the wake | Reviewer: rodregus montfort | 11/19/09 john lennon was such a creative genius.all of his songs touch me in some sort of way. he has such an amazing niche for metaphors in his songs. I think its amazing that i can relate to his music being 17. Interpret | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/14/09 Strawberry Fields could be a somewhere he escapes to in his dreams or when he's high. since "nothing is real" Living is easy with eyes closed cause its getting harder to be fake paul. It doesnt matter much to john. In the end it will all work out. No ones in his tree cause hes sure no one will know the truth to paul. Seaking metaphoriclly that paul is dead. best song i have heard in along time! | Reviewer: nikki | 11/10/09 i love this song not bacause it has strawberrys in it but that does make it so much better i love this song becaues it makes me think about what happed back then! i just love thhis song and if you have not lisend to this song you should ! <3 stawberry fields forever | Reviewer: christopher uruchima | 11/9/09 this song is awesome. im glad i heard it. i love the beatles thier awesome. i swear if i had a time machine i would go back in time and see every single concert they had. i care how much i would have to pat thier awesome. im 15 and i think they rule we can do it! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/5/09 this song is totally amazing,i've never heard this song before today, im so glad to hear it. but i was wondering how could john lennon make this kind of songs, im really impress, cause the inside of every jonh lennon song has some sent and is a particular sent, every lyrics has a message, ahaha... maybe in some cases has like a secret messages. i dont know i hope in the future we can change the world and stop the stupid war and...well you know stop the strawberry fields, i thing that strawberry fields means a bloody war, at least for me that is the meaning. '' STRAWBERRY FIELDS, NOTHING IS REAL'' John & Life | Reviewer: Greg Henderson | 10/19/09 I fail to see how these lyrics are about the Vietnam War. It seems to me to be Lennon's personal thoughts at the time. He's even said as much. It's an examination of himself, and life as he sees it. No one is "in his tree" - the isolation of knowing that he's exceptional. "It must be high or low" meaning he's either extraordinarily insightful or insane ... the whole song can be interpreted quite easily this way. John, the existentialist, thinking about the illusion of life, the bardo of becoming, the God question, confusion, his relaxed apathy about it all ... The chorus is essentially saying "Let me show you into my world." Beautifully written lyrics really. my humble opinion | Reviewer: domi | 10/14/09 In my opinion Strawberry Fields is a nice song, that its wonderful to listen to when you are looking for a relaxing atmosphere or when you feel that you need a place where you can find peace and quiet and be comfotable with yourself no matter whats going on outside.. heard Strawberry Fields today ... | Reviewer: Jay | 10/14/09 I heard this song on the radio today and I got thinking about it's meaning. I agree with yaronadar@gmail.com Vietnam interpretation. Yes Strawberry Fields was a Salvation Army orphanage where Lennon visited as a child, but I believe that there is much more to the song, it hits us somewhere deep down. Lennon was without a doubt an artistic genius and was the kind of man who expressed very complex social & moral issues in his music - in Strawberry Fields he is making a declaration against the war in Vietnam - it is like a calling or a notice to his generation. Remember that during this time there was no internet and fast free flow of ideas, it was a generation that spoke very much through music. And Lennon cared about humanity and what was happening in the world at the time. He is telling us that he is aware of the struggle within us and that he is ready to make a choice are you ready to make yours? We sense the horror and the humanity in the song because it takes a perfect emotional snapshot if you will of that timeframe- so therefore we get a sense of the fears and the disillusionment, the confusion and the inner struggles of that period in history that Lennon was very much in touch with. It's a brilliant song - I believe the most powerful anti-war song ever. I think it's a little sad when people say " oh just enjoy it it's a song" - that's how the importance and meanings of these works gets lost or corrupted, i think these types of discussions are very relevant. Interpretation | Reviewer: Patty | 9/30/09 Someone once told me that this song was one John wrote about fake people that hung around him or the band. These people would really annoy him and get him down, so he wrote this song as a kind of chill out for himself. Strawberry fields were a place where no one could touch him or get him down and 'nothing to get hung about'. I like this interpretation, but it is only that, an interpretation. Its good to see everyone discussing how they interpret it without getting nasty. Peace Add Your New Review About The Song By Pages:   1    2    3    4    5    6    7    8    9    10   Next 10 Pages
