5. Strawberry Fields Forever


Let me take you down 'cos I'm going too Strawberry Fields...

The flutes open up your mind for this LCD tripped song. Then Lennon's double tracked, reverb full vocals enter into your years, his message the strangest to get your head around but there comes a time in everyone's life where they understand the lyric 'Living is easy with eyes closed'
Has anyone ever been to Strawberry Fields? It's nothing special, not if you had never listened to the Beatles - it's just a red gate with signatures on the wall with 'Strawberry Fields' written across them, behind the gates is just a wasteland of grass. Bus after your listen to 'Strawberry Fields'? It changes everything, and it becomes a little wonderland of peace and dreams.
Well, that's how I felt.
