King version yet, I was a little confused and slightly disgusted by the whole thing, so I went so far as to bring my father(!) into the room to play it for him to see what he heard. (I would never have DARED to tell him what I thought John was saying! LOL) Of course, he didn't hesitate to say "light we'll see," following it up with, "Why do you ask?" Of course, I quickly said "Nevermind!" and rushed him out of the room. :lol: :lol: :lol:
Just curious, did you ever ask your father what he heard in "#9 Dream"? "Ah, bow a cow a po-say, po-say..." ;)

Oh, goodness, NO! :shock: This is the same guy who, while listening to my cassette recording of Lennon's "Mother" during a long, late night drive up north, got to the "Momma don't GOOOOOooooo" part and firmly said, "OK. Enough of that SH*T." and quickly ejected the tape. :lol: :lol:

Besides, I already KNEW ol' Johnny was sayin' naughty words in THAT one (#9 Dream)! :lol: :lol:

And when he does
His little rounds
'Round the forums
We have around
Eagerly pursuing
All the latest vids and discs
'Cause he's a dedicated downloader of Beatlegs!
