    Did you know that Paul McCartney secretly died in 1966.

    The other Beatles covered up his death — hiring someone who looked like him and sang like him.
    But the guilt eventually got to them and they began hiding clues in their music.

    · In the song "Taxman," George Harrison gave his "advice for those who die," meaning Paul.
    · The entire Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band album has clues: the Beatles had formed a "new" band featuring a fictional member named Billy Shears — supposedly the name of Paul's replacement. The album contained John Lennon's "A Day in the Life," which had the lyrics "He blew his mind out in a car" and the recorded phrase "Paul is dead, miss him, miss him," which becomes evident only when the song is played backward. Lennon also mumbled, "I buried Paul" at the end of "Strawberry Fields Forever" (in interviews, Lennon said the phrase was actually "cranberry sauce" and denied the existence of any backward messages).
    · The original cover of 1966's Yesterday and Today album featured the Beatles posed amid raw meat and dismembered doll parts — symbolizing McCartney's gruesome accident. If you place a mirror in front of the Sgt. Pepper album cover, the words Lonely Hearts on the drum logo read as "1 ONE 1 X HE DIE 1 ONE 1." And of course, there's the Abbey Road cover, on which John, George and Ringo pretended to cross the street as a funeral procession. John wore all white, like a clergyman. Ringo, the mourner, dressed in black. George donned jeans, like a gravedigger. Paul wore no shoes (he didn't need them, because he was dead) and walked out of step with the others.

    What a load of rubbish, and you got some of the "theories" wrong.

    Also the car on the left of the Abbey road cover includes '28IF'...i.e. Paul would be 28, IF he had lived :eek:

    Apparantly, Paul never died, and went on to have a successul career after the break-up of The Beatles, and remains very much not dead today.

    One of my favorites, shows how easy it is to come up with a story and support it with "signs" and "hints" all over the place.

    Right, this thread is going nowhere fast. Closed due to the silly comments of the majority of people who've posted in it.
