you mean the Beatles?? lol here let John tell you


John Lennon: "I was trying to write about an affair without letting my wife know I was having one. I was sort of writing from my experiences - girl's flats, things like that. I was very careful and paranoid because I didn't want my wife, Cyn, to know that there really was something going on outside of the household. I'd always had some kind of affairs going on, so I was trying to be sophisticated in writing about an affair, but in such a smoke-screen way that you couldn't tell. But I can't remember any specific woman it had to do with."

Norwegian Wood is a fake wood that was used to make cheap furniture. Lennon knew people who were using it in their homes and thought it would make a good title.
There are not many lyrics in this, but they tell the story of a man who gets invited to a girl's house, but when she won't let him into her bed, he sleeps in the tub. When she leaves the next morning, he sets the place on fire.

What an album Rubber Soul is!! Who writes like Lennon and Mccartney anymore!! Paul is going on tour again in the fall......I'm prepared to give up an arm or a leg to go!!!
