Talk:Across the Universe

message: I think the bit about the EP needs tightening up. I have heard that an EP was planned in connection with "Yellow Submarine", but presumably it was the four new songs in the film ("All Together Now"; "Only A Northern Song"; "Hey Bulldog"; "It's All Too Much"). Is there a source which says "Across the Universe" (which was not in the film) was supposed to be on the EP too?

message: This statement, "his White Album contributions were much more angry and hard-edged."
I question the validity of inclusion of this.  Seems like just an unsubstantiated opinion.  What is it about "Julia" that seems more hard-edged?  Recommend it be removed.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.217.166.84 (talk) 01:41, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Lennon's 1980 interview is published in book form and doesn't appear to be available online so I can't verify this. But the exact same quote is claimed to have been made by Lennon about McCartney relating to "Strawberry Fields Forever" and is related in the wiki article on that song. I found substantiation elsewhere online regarding the Strawberry Fields accusation, but it appears that this specific claim regarding Across the Universe was mistakenly taken from Lennon's accusations against McCartney regarding Strawberry Fields. 24.5.70.184 (talk) 23:48, 14 March 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The reference can be found in statements on  p. 162 of The Playboy Interviews with John Lennon and Yoko Ono. Lennon makes a series of statements that are really quite suspicious, including "Paul would ... sort of subconsciously try and destroy a great song." Then he goes on to say "well maybe I'm paranoid", etc. Then Lennon goes on to say to the interviewer "The same thing happened to "Across the Universe"". A problem with Lennon, more than the other Beatles (or George Martin, etc.) is that spoke off the top of his head, and at that point in the interview, it's particularly obvious. 76.102.1.129 (talk) 16:24, 15 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text:  And Lennon was not only at loggerheads with McCartney at that time over a number of issues, but was heavily into repudiating the whole ‘Beatle’ part of his life, as though someone had ‘forced’ him to do it. He even attacked George Martin for ‘messing up’ his early songs with ‘electronic tricks’. I have a copy of ‘Lennon Remembers’, the Rolling Stone interviews. Too much of it is angry rant. 2001:44B8:3102:BB00:5C56:6649:E8C4:E488 (talk) 21:52, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

message: Having a section for Bowie’s cover makes sense since Lennon was involved, but why does Fiona Apple’s deserve more attention than any of the others? Doesn’t appear to have won an award or anything. ZimZalaBim talk 22:43, 26 March 2022 (UTC)
