That is not a Beatles song, that is a John Lennon solo work song, but it does not really matter that much anyway. Still good either way.

Hey Reppy I actually have seen that "Here Come the Sun " performance by Bon Jovi at the Vh1 music awards. It was sexcellent.

During the U.S. civil rights movement, the Beatles were watching blacks getting mistreated on TV (sprayed by hoses, dogs, ect). A "bird" in U.k. is a word for woman. So listen to the lyrics again with with this is mind...

"you've been waiting for this moment to be free, blackbird fly..."

that's why the Beatles were great.

Yeah. And I'll admit the first time I saw that it choked me up a bit.

That's cool. I never knew that. It seems today that artists have given up on euphemism and metaphor. Part of the reason I don't like mainstream music much.

No one mentioned Strawberry Fields Forever and Please Please Me? Both top 500 all time Rolling Stone songs.

Yeah The beatles offered solutions in their songs. For example "All You Need is Love." Love is always a good solution.

Yeah and the guitar accompaniment was based on Johann Sebastian Bach's Bouree (classical guitar piece).
