Beatles Trivia for everyone! Did you know that John Lennon’s song, Norwegian Wood is actually a way for John Lennon to journal one of his affair. Writing delicately as to not raise any suspicion to Cynthia Lennon?

“I once had a girl, or should I say she once had me”… where the hidden message in that? :D

John was quoted:

“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.” - John Lennon
