    This is one of the most psychedelic and darkest-sounding ‘Beatles songs. It feels cathartic in the feelings of loneliness and sadness. If perfectly encapsulates the symptoms of those feelings: Disorder (exemplified by the constant tempo-changes that progressively get faster), longing (which is portrayed perfectly from the melody of, “Please don’t be long”), and dread (brought on by the overall gloomy tone, with the sporadic strings, drums, and more). Crazy to think this was written on a whim from George just in regards to him waiting for a music publicist to meet him at his house on Blue Jay Way before he falls asleep.

      @@mrconfusion87The same with The Doors and other bands of the era I guess. You are probably right but partly ). I had some classmates who experimented with chemicals in the 90-s, but none of them created anything even close to The Beatles. So, my verdict is chemichals are not enough, you got to be a genius. I always wondered what kind of music Bach and Beethoven would have composed if they were on chemicals )))

      Mine too. A Beatlesphile once told me the story behind this song. It was his real life experience. He lived on Blue Jay Way in LA, and he was waiting for his friends who were flying in that night. It was foggy and they got lost driving and he wrote about it…..if I remember correctly, it was Eric Clapton and one of the other Beatles.
      Edit: so I read about it on Wikipedia. Got a few details wrong. Mainly, he was waiting for his publicist. You can read about it. GH is a true artist. He took a mundane event in his life and turned it into a masterpiece

      I agree with Magical Mystery Tour, it's a really good album. Hey Bulldog is one of my fav Beatles song.
      For Sgt Pepper, to be honnest, after a long time I listened it again last summer, I was a fan of this album but I found that it grew old. Not a bad album but some moments sounds like beginners. Like if we can feel the young McCartney that try to build something with George Martin.
      I surprised myself when finaly I think that Sgt Pepper can easily be cut to save only the 8.5 songs I like. (0.5 is for A Day In The Life, McCartney's part and Ringo's drums save the song, Lennon's part is so boring)
      Sgt Pepper as concept album was the light of my childhood and teenage. Now as an adult, I listen sometimes one or two songs I prefer from this album and taste it like a liquor for gods.

      The cello was the stand-in here for a sitar. George came up with the instrumentation heard here as being the Western equivalent to the Indian instrumentation heard on his earlier Indian music ventures as "Love You To" and "Within You Without You." Besides the cello replacing the sitar, the Hammond organ was used to represent the sound of the tambura drone, and Ringo's drums mimicking the tabla.

    This album was my gateway into the Beatles in my tennage years. But I always skipped this song, it sounded so scary. I’ve later come to realize Geroge is my favourite Beatle, and to me, the greatest songwriter of all time. But to this day, this song still makes me feel weird. I don’t skip it anymore, but it still freaks me out.

    You've got to love the spare tire randomly coming right at George on the floor. He just pushes it back and continues to sing and play his air piano. Classic 😊

      I think that moment of humor helps counteract the creepy, Kenneth Anger-inspired images throughout the song.

    I do'nt care if people consider this record as a compilation;Magical Mistery Tour is one of the most incredibly exciting records ever to came out.And Blue Jay Way is an incredible George Harrison' song that most of the time people tend to forget about.The strange chord sequence/harmony and melody is typical George...a Genius!!!❤
