Description WOO I DID IT thank you. I have a ton of pictures I need ta get out ta people but I decided ta finish this one first since I actually have a deadline fer this one. YES. This is fer da Beatles contest on da jthmslash lj group that Kurumi is doing. I SAID I'D ENTER AND I DID SO THERE. I should be asleep.
I went with Eleanor Rigby cause I like that song a lot. That bit fer it in the Yellow Submarine was pretty weird tho, if I recall. Oh Darling was another contender, but I couldn't see any way ta do that without it being very very silly.
I used ta watch the Yellow Submarine obsessively as a kid. God that movie is so weird. SO WEIRD.

Lyrics are in SCRIABIN'S FONT. HAHA. That makes this a lot more bitter than I intended. There's that red again. Well, at least it's red thread this time. TOO MUCH YARN.
Of course, Johnny is just resting his eyes.
That soda sounds intriguing. Also, the Space Pony poster returns ! I should do a clear shot of that someday.
Interestingly enough, I didn't actually listen ta da song itself once while coloring this. Instead I listened ta this OC Remix [link] because I have fallen deeply in love with it. I'm not sure why, it's just hitting me really hard fer some reason. Weird! I never actually played FFX either. It's just so pretty.

Heh, Eleanor Rigby tho is now always colored by this conversation my parents had...

Mom: Ah, I love Eleanor Rigby. It's so melancholy. o|` All the Lonely People...
Dad: Did you know that song is about a pedophile priest?
Me: Really?
Mom: WHAT NO
Dad: Yeah. Think about it.
Mom: NO! THAT'S NOT TRUE! NO!
Me: I guess I can see that, now that ya mention it. Weird.
Mom: NO NO YOU RUINED THE SONG FOR ME THANKS A LOT
Dad: ::cackles::

Eleanor Rigby is my favorite Beetles song. Thankfully, I cannot see how it's about a pedo-priest, so I think I'm safe.

Hahahaha nope. My chapters are growing steadily longer and longer. Apparently I have a terminal case of "nevercanshutup-itis." TERRIBLE. I have a tendency to ramble. I'm going to try and keep that under control more in the future though.
After the next massive chapter, cough.

well i think its more fun with people who ramble instead of those who only have sentences containing one or two words

"hey"

"sup?"

"meh"

"oh"

bye"

And I guess the song COULD be about that...though I always imagined Eleanor Rigby as an old woman, not a little kid...and the priest as some loner guy, not a...yeah.

This is just the ultimate combination of my two loves, JTHM and The Beatles. There can be nothing better. But I must say, I very much doubt Paul was writing this song about a pedophile priest. I`ll check my resources and get back to you that though.
