"Come together"

[tima]

Братцы, я правильно перевел название песни этой у Битлов как "Кончить вместе (одновременно)"?

А то тут спросили... и я что-то засомневался

Тим,

ни слова этой песни, ни название не имеют абсолютно никакого смысла.
это набор слов который Джон Ленон подобрал чтобы поиздеваться над музыкальными критиками которые вслушивались/ внюхивались в каждую букву его песен, чтобы расскрыть в них какой-то секретный смысл. Эта песня--набор несуразиц, типа стихотворения "Джабарвоки" из "Алисы в Стране Чудес" (если ты помнишь).

Есть на самом деле много версий о том что же эта песня может значить (например что она посвещена Тимоси Лири (а набо слов в ней как один ЛСДишный трип), и др. В зависимости от смысла люди пробуют разгадать название, но, "come together right now over me" (if you ask me) means absolutely nothing; and thus, cannot really be translated into a meaningful title, sexual or literal or what-have-you.


Here come old flattop he come grooving up slowly
He got joo-joo eyeball he one holy roller
He got hair down to his knee
Got to be a joker he just do what he please

He wear no shoeshine he got toe-jam football
He got monkey finger he shoot coca-cola
He say "I know you, you know me"
One thing I can tell you is you got to be free
Come together right now over me

He bag production he got walrus gumboot
He got Ono sideboard he one spinal cracker
He got feet down below his knee
Hold you in his armchair you can feel his disease
Come together right now over me

He roller-coaster he got early warning
He got muddy water he one mojo filter
He say "One and one and one is three"
Got to be good-looking 'cause he's so hard to see
Come together right now over me

Another opinion on the subject:

This song was written by John Lennon during his and Yoko's bed-in in Toronto in May 1969. It came about when their friend, Timothy Leary, the LSD drug mahatma and self-proclaimed liberator of the world's collective mind, slowed up at the bed-in. At this time, Leary had made a decision to run for political office, and came up with the campaign slogan of "Come Together." With this slogan in mind, he asked John to write him a song using it, that his followers could sing on the campaign trail. Lennon's take on the slogan was to come together and join the party, and wrote the song. Before Leary could use it, he was arrested and went to jail. As a result of Leary being gone, Lennon figured his obligation to him was no longer in force, thus he and The Beatles recorded it.
