What Is A Mojo Filter
Think of that game people play (and psychologists when they see an image or an object and have to 'name' or 'say' the first matter that comes to their listen. Thats how the right hemisphere of your brain works. It sees an unidentifiable object (similar in a Rorschach test) and ascribes a name to it. That the left hemisphere could easily classify and rationalise that 'object' as a stick, or canis familiaris, the right hemisphere would depict it every bit a , well, butterfly pooing or something. Rationalisation and logic are parts of the left hemisphere almost exclusively, the correct hemisphere is an unknown landscape of information and interpreted events beyond the left'southward logical conclusions.
Then when a author or painter chooses to use right hemisphere exclusively for their works (as in surreal art or prose), left brain 'real globe' events are interpreted by right encephalon 'imaging' of said events. The subject always will have left brain influence, just the right encephalon will 'tell' what it sees in the manner it knows how to. Sometimes vaguely, sometimes cryptic, allusory etc.
Well. I just noticed, and maybe this is something everyone saw earlier and I just saw it now, or possibly its another one of those ''Amuse me and ponder these lyrics Lennon things', merely funnily enough at that place's something a little funny going on in 'Come Together'. Even if you lot become all surreal, cryptic and obtuse near things with your mind and intellect, guess what, your heart knows the truth and tends to govern quite a flake more than than the mind would like to admit. Anyway . . . . . my betoken. But its just an ascertainment, nothing to be taken seriously.
In the four separate verses of 'Come Together' a person is being alluded to. Its never quite clear if it's e'er just one person alluded to four times, or four people separately for each verse. Stick with me, this might be fun.
If taken from this verse:
''He bag production He got walrus gumboot He got Ono sideboard He one spinal cracker He got feet downward beneath his knees Hold you in his armchair You tin feel his disease''
Well come on. No matter how cryptic and featherbrained and vague information technology is, thats John. Every reference alludes to something at that fourth dimension in his life. Handbag. Ono. Walrus. Its just when you utilize the other verses to the other 3 it kinda gets interesting. The only affair is the Ringo and Paul verses (?????), but of course I'one thousand stretching here , aren't as pinpointed and seem more than a individual observation.
''Here come old flattop he come grooving upward slowly He got joo-joo eyeball he i holy roller He got pilus downwards to his human knee Got to be a joker he just do what he please'' Hmmm. George.. I'll let the George fans, if they want, spot the references.
''He roller-coaster he got early on warning He got muddy water he one mojo filter He say "1 and one and one is 3" Got to be good-looking �cause he�s so difficult to see''
I'yard sure John idea about these lyrics in a manner of saying, I'm going to play with this a bit, merely I'g not quite sure he 'hid' everything he felt like maxim every bit well as he thought he might, or did. It comes off like a joke, just it still kind of says something. The one and one and one is three is kind of an interesting line, because it is so strange to really see, but so I kind of look at what Paul was going through existence the 'outsider' Beatle at the fourth dimension and kind of up against the others about manager and direction. Its a funny line.
I mean I'k certain this has all been analysed before by some hippie or disc jockey, and i'one thousand certain information technology amused John quite a flake. Unfortunately, when y'all look at what was going on at the time in his life, some of those odd references sort of add upwardly to something.
And the last chip:
''He wear no shoeshine he got toe-jam football game He got monkey finger he shoot coca-cola He say "i know y'all, you know me" One thing I can tell yous is you got to be complimentary''
The only one left is Ringo, but I have NO clue what that all ways!!! Some of those lines I have a hard time tying to him, though monkey finger seems to bring to mind someone clumsy. I just go a picture of a monkey trying to become an object out of a pigsty thats smaller than the object. Naiveness. And 'he wear no shoeshine' seems to be a comment about a person who doesn't become for fancy dressings, for adornments, they are as they are, as you see them. No shoeshine, just the shoes.
Let's effigy out this one for kicks. Play along if y'all like
''He roller-coaster he got early warning He got dingy h2o he one mojo filter He say "one and one and one is three" Got to be expert-looking �cause he�s and so difficult to come across''
If we accept each line separately, and don't approach it looking for a person, just what that line describes, what that line conjurs up in your head by the words used, maybe it brings it a little closer to who it may exist? I would dearest for everyone if they take the time to put their own thoughts into information technology.
He roller coaster
To me, maybe everyone, this automatically conjures upwards an image of a rollercoaster! But if I use the qualities of a rollercoaster to a person, it so becomes different. A rollercoaster is fast, furious, swerving, up and downwardly, frenzied. Applied to a person:
A rollercoaster person would seem to be someone who switches extremes quickly and with trivial warning. Every bit an observer, you are taken along on this ride whether you like it or not, and susceptible to information technology'south (his or her's) twists and turns at a moment'south notice.
He got early warning
Early warning just brings to heed: a present danger was made known earlier it really arrived.
He got muddy h2o
Dingy Water every bit a reference withal points to blues, or low. The musician Muddy Waters was known for the dejection (and how you become them ). Its possible this may be name dropping for the sake of it, but it too says something about that early warning said before. The present danger has pb to depression.
Muddy Water also brings to listen something unclear, murky, not seen or visible.
He ane mojo filter
Mojo significant: a magic spell, hex, or amuse; broadly : magical power. The word or term is from African origin. Pretty much linked up to Muddy by proxy by reference anyway.
Filter: a device or fabric for suppressing or minimizing waves or oscillations of certain frequencies (as of electricity, light, or sound) (simply one definition)
But basically a filter is used to dilute or suppress the effects of something. If everyone is playing along, allow me know what you lot remember a mojo-filter would exercise
He say "one and one and ane is three"
The strange line. (Right - out of all the ones already ) Its the most interesting line of this poesy. Its obviously post-obit the pattern set up by the other verses (disease, knees, delight etc.) so maybe it is simply a throw in line for the sake of a rhyme. Its just that what follows information technology:
''Got to be expert-looking �crusade he�s and so hard to see''
So what is 'i and 1 and one is iii' saying? Thats an observation about something that tin can exist seen. That is visible and very clear. The one thing in this verse that is.
Okay.
JOHN:
''He bag product He got walrus gumboot He got Ono sideboard He one spinal cracker He got anxiety down beneath his knees Hold you in his armchair Y'all tin can experience his disease''
Everything most this verse screams John. The interesting lines are He one spinal cracker Hold you in his armchair You can feel his disease''
"Spinal cracker":
just says to me what information technology implies, someone who volition break your spine, like a nutcracker.
"Hold you in his armchair yous tin experience his illness"
In his presence yous tin feel his sickness, his illness, his symptoms of distress or pain. Or when you go close to him, you are enlightened of how much pain he is in.
GEORGE:
''Hither come quondam flattop he come up grooving up slowly He got joo-joo eyeball he one holy roller He got hair downwards to his genu Got to be a joker he just practise what he delight''
''Hither come old flattop''
The Chuck Berry reference of the start verse is a skillful clue to who this is. Who sang 'Curlicue Over Beethoven' in The Beatles early on years? Who was 'the guitarist' of The Beatles. Images of Chuck Drupe are about always with his guitar, and I don't think George was much different in person or in private.
"He come grooving upwards slowly"
George'south personality in full general? Always in control and in tune, but at his own stride. 'Grooving' just puts in my mind, rhythm, in tune, vibrating, similar it meant dorsum in the 60'south, to 'be in the groove'. That its slowly is not patronising. Information technology is at his own choosing.
"He got joo-joo eyeball"
A joo-joo (or ju-ju) is a candy or sweet, like a jellybean. But this likewise says to me something shiny, voluminous, bigger than ordinary. The of import matter that you might miss is that its only One eyeball. But one eye. Or maybe the Third Eye of Krishna consciousness, of spiritual awareness.
"He one holy roller"
Well by 1969 George certainly was i. He was 1 until he died. And I don't think is quite meant in the Bible Belt Holy Roller way, considering from what I'm seeing so far in this poesy, every line seems quite affectionate. My mind merely might exist changing near how John felt about George. There's something quite sweet nearly this verse.
"He got hair downward to his knee"
By 1969 information technology was getting there, by 1970 it was nigh there. Only if you imagine him sitting in yoga position, which he probably did quite often in the studio, it only might appear he had hair going all the style down to his genu.
Got to exist a joker he just do what he please
Interesting line. I'll leave it upwards to someone to tell me what they see in this i. Once again, I don't recall its patronising at all.
PAUL:
''He roller-coaster he got early warning He got muddy h2o he i mojo filter He say "one and ane and one is iii" Got to exist expert-looking �cause he�s then hard to see''
"He roller-coaster "
Could be an allusion to a ride like a Helter Skelter, which Paul wrote, but the rest of this verse doesn't seem so kind, like John'south having fun with the imagery. This poesy is a scrap darker than the others. A rollercoaster? A ride that takes y'all upwardly and down and all around with little alarm almost what its going to do next.
"He got early alarm"
"He got dirty water"
Either this person has the dejection, or this person is unclear in seeing what it is they are 'about' by the narrator of the vocal, the ane who asks them all to Come up Together.
"He one mojo filter"
This person is diluting the magic that was had before. The tone of the line comes across similar black slang ' He ane bad muthafu**a', this person is one mojo filter for sho, it seems to say. The charm and power are existence sapped considering of this influence, this 'cover'.
"He say "one and one and one is 3"
"Got to be good-looking �cause he�due south so difficult to encounter"
Known as the 'face' of The Beatles, the public persona, the Cute One, the 'good looking' reference seems an obvious indicate at Paul, just its the next line thats the more intriguing. It is taken at general face value that this person is what they are on the surface, because it is and then hard to run across anything else there. This line says a number of things all at in one case.
1) The only matter this person has is their 'looks' because in that location is little else there to see, as in he's GOT to exist good looking on the outside because he feels there is and so little on the inside worth showing.
ii) Its taken that he must be good looking because he is barely in that location or 'effectually' to meet if he is or not.
Simply most of all, cause he's and then hard to run into just says, this person is hard to 'run across'. This could hateful most their drives, motives, feelings, thoughts. It could be about anything, but I actually recall it points to that this 3rd person of 4, is very difficult to understand why they are being a mojo filter, or a rollercoaster, or in dirty water for the narrator.
RINGO:
''He wearable no shoeshine he got toe-jam football He got monkey finger he shoot coca-cola He say "i know you, you lot know me" One thing I can tell you lot is yous got to be free''
I haven't quite got this one yet, its a couple of lines in information technology that are a little bit confusing, but the first line
"He article of clothing no shoeshine"
Just says to me, a person who does not wear fancy frills or decoration, no airs or devices. This person, when you see their shoes, simply has shoes AS IS. What you run across is what y'all get, they will not make themselves announced as what they are not.
Perhaps he but ran out of creative steam, and kind of skimmed over Ringo. Simply there are some important lines, particularly
He shoot coca-cola
He say "i know you, you know me" 1 thing I can tell you lot is you got to be costless''
Those ones are very interesting, and I'm non thinking Coca Cola is actually a cocaine reference, but I do recollect information technology alludes to drug of preference for Ringo, which was alcohol. The Ringo verse is a difficult one to decipher in general. Less easier than George & John for sure.
The Beatles WERE approached in 1969 to do commercials for Coca Cola, and footage does exist of these 'spots' , and its too known that Ringo's drug of preference was Scotch & Coke, so afterward Bourbon & Coke. Information technology might exist possible that a guy who's recreational activites involved heavy sponsorship of one particular make, might only shoot a Coca Cola commercial faster than maybe a Holy Roller, a Mojo Filter, or a Walrus Gumboot.
