Sexy Sadie

Lennon wrote the song during the Beatles' stay in India in response to the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's alleged sexual advance on actress Mia Farrow

Lennon originally wanted to title the song "Maharishi", but changed the title to "Sexy Sadie" at George Harrison's request.

Lennon once said of the song: "That was inspired by Maharishi. I wrote it when we had our bags packed and were leaving. It was the last piece I wrote before I left India. I just called him 'Sexy Sadie' instead of (sings) 'Maharishi what have you done, you made a fool...' I was just using the situation to write a song, rather calculatingly but also to express what I felt. I was leaving the Maharishi with a bad taste. You know, it seems that my partings are always not as nice as I'd like them to be." He told Rolling Stone that when the Maharishi asked why he was leaving, he replied, "Well, if you're so cosmic, you'll know why."

Doesn't it say "watch on YouTube?" If it does, just click on it.

I like me some Pointer Sisters.

I'd never heard of these guys, but it popped up in my stream, so I clicked. Fun tune.

Love it. When I was a kid, and thoroughly into the show, my dad would tell me that they weren't even a real band. He was wrong! They had some good stuff!

Great rendition, but there's nothing like the original.

Man, was I in love with her when I was a little kid.

That voice...

It is certainly hard for anything to successfully compete with a childhood memory like that.

Hilarious!

From the comments section...

I try, try, try, to get this song out my head;
I cry, cry, cry, if I'd rather just be dead;
I view, I watch, I hear, I play this bloody song all day;
In hopes it ends the torment but this ear worm's here to stay;

lol

Just so you guys know I'm OK...
