A Day In The Life - The Truth At Last!

[Sondra]

I wish you had some solid evidence about that. I'm in NO way trying to insult or start any sort of argument. I just think that without a Beatle or George Martin himself saying so (or anyone else who has first hand knowledge), you can't be sure. I swear, I thought it was John for years, but a listen on headphones one day, and suddenly I hear Paul. So I don't know. I'd like to say, oh okay it's John, but I can't. Don't yell at me now love.

Where did they go? Mr Charlie? Colleen? This has been a battlefield so far. Never got involved myself (so far), but now that I've listened to it:
the right mix: John
the left mix: Paul

No more please!!!! lol....Both!!! Look back on this thread.

This will go on forever!!! lol

But this is not the "Who is The Incredible Thread Ender???" thread, is it?  

It's time to update this (it was the main topic at the Forum Party 2005, , that one that most of you missed). Don't worry, I was teasing you all: it was funnier than these arguments ... and there'll be another party pretty soon, I guess.  

I agree with Bobber.
The right mix is clearly John: John-esq begining of the aaaah, thinner aaaah and in typical high-pitched voice in the middle and an erratic ending of the aaaah segment (very John). However I must admit than sounds a bit like Paul in the middle.

The left mix is not so clear to me but it sounds more like Paul: self-confident and professional beginning of the aaaah, sweet, warmer and lower aaaah in the middle and a polished up ending (professional again) of the aaaah.

and now: what do YOU think?
Share your opinion with us   (there are a few blue meanies waiting for you ... hehehe ... hahaha ...HAHAHAHAHAHAHA) Sorry  :B

It says that John did the 'aaahhh's, but I've been told here that Paul did them. Just goes to show that the 'aaahhh's really do sound like John it seems!

That's the funny part ... I think they were both.

Here in this thread you can read that  Mike of the "What Goes On" website thought -hope he doesn't now- that it was John. (thanks to The End)

One man's undeniable evidence is another man's aural illusion.

Wait, so does this mean we actually know the real anwer? Who is this person anyway? I'm not in the mood to read through it all right now and if I do read it, I wan't to know if the person actually knows or if it's just an opinion again.

[raxo]

I think it's just an opinion ... tho the rest of the information about the recording sessions, interviews and data are quite interesting ... sure you already knew all that but it's an interesting reading, anyway.  

I think both John+Paul are in the aaahs ...

I suspect the part was sung by "Faul" the fake Paul McCartney, who took over the real Paul's role after the real Paul died in that car accident ("He blew his mind out in a car").  Don't try to feed me any of that Guiness heir stuff.  We all know EMI (Electric and Musical Industries) is just a front for British Intelligence and that they tried to take over the world with their Tesla death rays and the Beatles.  

I mean, it's obvious, dude!  They were pushing all this peace and love so that when we were unarmed Uncle Joe and MI5 could become our overlords.  The long hair would make the men more effeminate and also mess with their aim.  The LSD--everybody knows that was an army experiment--Uncle Joe and Co. needed a way to get drug use to the masses (a literal "opiate of the masses" since religion was wearing thin).  

John recognized his role in the conspiracy (and tried to put out secret messages--I buried Paul, the Walrus was Paul, etc.), but was given a "minder" when he became too active.
