Yeah, I guess if you were young enough you could be susceptible to that.
I also got a kick out of the people who kept looking for the subliminal
messages!

One that I always enjoyed although it was thoroughly "pooh poohed"
every time I dared to speak of it was in the lyric of the song "Teddy
Boy".

"Teddy used to tell her he'd be twice as good."

"Dead he used to tell her he'd be twice as good."

I maintain that our brains hear sounds, and then must interpret just
what was said. When there is a homonym of one, or even two words
involved, the brain "considers" ALL meanings before it finally decides
which one to suppose to be meant by the artist.

There... I've said it! Another Paul is dead clue!

"Dead he used to tell her he'd be twice as good."

Christ! What am I saying?
