The Relevance Of "I Saw Her Standing There" Between John And Paul

The relevance of "I saw her standing there" between John and Paul

Paul considers "I saw her standing there" one of the best song he has ever written in his book "the lyrics" from 2021.

I think John thought the same? Because he sung this with Elton in 1974 telling the world it is a song from "his estranged fiance Paul". John thought it would be funny to sing it and wondered how Paul would react about it in 1974.

Maybe the song has significance to the both of them? It's the first song on their first official album "Please, Please, Please" from 1963.

The Relevance Of "I Saw Her Standing There" Between John And Paul

The first draft from Paul was genderneutral? IT COULD BE ABOUT JOHN. "You're just seventeen." Which is when Paul met him in 1957.

You're just seventeen

You act like a queen

You.....are beyond compare

So how could I dance with another (feels like a love declaration that's meant to last forever)

When I see you standing there.

"You are beyond compare", remember Paul saying everyone else just faded into background at the Fete when The Quarrymen was performing? You act like a queen would fit John too.

Update: Added Toot and Snore Session from March 1974 his only known jamming session with Paul post The Beatles break up where John said "When I saw me standing there, and I said gee is that me?"

YOU ARE NOT SELFISH‼️

Vetted by : @sar-soor @communistchilchuck @90-ghost

and, this is a legitimate campaign. It's #174 on the list of fundraisers that have been verified by @el-shab-hussein and @nabulsi .

Support a Family from Gaza During the War 🙏

Important 💢

Dear Friends,👋

My name is Ahmed Alanqer, and I live in Gaza with my wife Dina Almnasra and our four children. The war has destroyed our lives and made us live in constant fear. I have lost many family members, my life, my university, and my dearest loved ones. I don't know if I will survive or not. I fear becoming just a number in this long war, and I fear dying without meaning.

I accept death in Gaza, but I cannot bear to see what remains of my family die in front of me. We desperately need financial assistance to leave Gaza and protect my family.

YOU ARE NOT SELFISH

HERE'S WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN NOW THAT TRUMP HAS BEEN SHOT

Republicans WILL and ALREADY ARE trying to make Trump a martyr. They're already using the fact that Biden has compared Trump to Hitler, vis a vis Trump using Nazi/fascist talking points, to claim that Biden has fanned the flames, making this shooting possible. This doesn't mean there's no weight to pointing out that Trump has, in fact, used Nazi talking points...

However, conservatives WILL shout to the mountaintops that YOU and all leftists are the ones who made this shooting possible. They will 100 times over hammer on you for calling Trump a fascist, They're not going to mention Project 2025 for a second. In my humble opinion, there's no use fighting this rhetoric. There's nothing to gain from proving them wrong on this front, even if It's relatively easy to do so. Their outrage, performative or not, will sway moderates and centrists like that. Done. Moderates will, unfortunately, see calling Trump a fascist as bloodsports. They'll say you're fearmongering. They'll call you unreasonable.

Instead, we need to focus on the facts. Project 2025 is freely available for everyone to cite. Don't lose focus. DO NOT give up our best shot at swaying the centrists. We have the benefits of being right. We have the benefits of being able to talk past all the conservative bullshit you're about to see online everywhere. And most importantly, we have the benefits from The Heritage Foundation having posted publically their plans for the USA.

If leftists, progressives, liberals, all of us can hijack this shooting as publicity for Trump's own plans for the US, I think we have a chance. Reblog, talk to your friends and neighbors, and most importantly, DO NOT GIVE IN TO THE DOOMERISM. That's what Trumpies want. We can win this.
