While it's true that "Lucy in the sky with diamonds" wasn't deliberately emphasizing the L for Lucy, the S for sky and the D for diamonds, it's naive to claim it wasn't an acid inspired song {as opposed to a song about or encouraging the use of acid} because almost everything John Lennon wrote from January of 1966 to early 1968 was written either while he was tripping or while he was in
that frame of
reference. By his own admission. As he himself put it "acid didn't write the songs.....it was a mirror and I write the songs whether on acid or in the water." He was trying to capture the otherworldly imagery of writers like Lewis Carroll in stuff like "Through the looking glass and what Alice found there." Much of the material he came up with in those years showed acid to be his "door in the wall" and
that's partly why so many impressionable people cling to the claim that "Lucy" is
about LSD.
Paul McCartney's subsequent views on drugs show very clearly that the Beatles were trying to turn people on ~ not those that were already turned on. And some of the lyrics in some songs were carriers of that evangelistic bent.
It's consistent with where you're coming from much of the time ! You like to fire loud and whisper questions when in court !
To me, this doesn't make sense. It seems that you're saying that these people would commit suicide because of a song but if they hadn't committed suicide, they'd have created one hell of a mess that money would have to have been spent to clean up. And part of the mess would be murderous rampages against innocent people. Then you link this with jails being full of these youngsters that have been influenced by the lyrics of gangster rap but also skate over the fact that they have no parental supervision.
It's like you're making several points that are all deserving of scrutiny on their own but jumbled up into one which, because of this, renders it, confusing as to what you're actually saying about whom.......
