Maybe his contrary nature can be taken to show not that he was remarkably complicated but that he was remarkably normal. Lets face it, all of us are guilty of being contradictory in our thoughts and actions, constantly changing our opinions etc.
This is more obvious for John because he displayed his thoughts in such a public manner. Most artists don't bare their soul in this way and thus would appear to be less complicated. But then again maybe the very fact that John felt the need to express his thoughts so openly in its self shows how complicated he was?
Or how about McCartney writing endless love songs whilst being by all accounts a particularly cold and loveless man? Or Harrison preaching his world kharmic vision whilst bemoaning the taxman taking his worldly goods or making his viscious digs in Piggies.
Actually, I might be talking rubbish.

See I've told you how confusing analyzing can become. ;)
Your bring up a very good point about John just being normal, but was displaying his feelings in a public way; thus making him appear more complicated.

This is true. While I spmetimes get on john pretty hard, he at least didnt shy away from things he felt strongly about. Paul always had to be the medias sweetheart and lost his balls along the way.
DarkSweetLady:
I agree with you...I guess one of them had to be.

Poor Paul, poor Paul
he lost his balls . . . .
