The Secret Behind Abbey Road


So anyone who's anyone knows who the Beatles are,you know the British rock band that came to America and completely revolutionized the music scene. And since everyone knows the Beatles everyone must know of one of their most famous albums Abbey Road right? But I don't think everyone knows about the secret behind Abbey Road now do they?
So the story goes that after a recording session there was a fight between the band members. Paul McCartney got really mad and sped off down the road. Well on his way down the road he passed a lovely looking girl (Rita). He was too busy looking at her and didn't see an oncoming car. The rumor goes that he crashed and got decapitated. So the rest of the band got a McCartney lookalike. They evidently felt bad about this and it is said they left little messages in their albums from then on. -Info thanks to eeggs.com

Here are some of those messages:



  • The license plate on the VW bug says 28IF. This is the age Paul would be IF he hadn't died.

  • They are dressed, John as a priest, Ringo an Angel, Paul as a corpse(with a cigarette in his right hand), and finally George as a grave digger.

  • Paul has a cigarette in his right hand but Paul was a lefty leaving some to believe its not really him.

  • Paul isn't wearing shoes which is a symbol of death in Greece.

  • Paul looks like he has a crack in his head symbolizing the car crash.

  • On the back...

  • You see a woman walking away, that would be the lovely Rita, the woman that distracted Paul.

  • If you connect the dots to the left of the Beatles's sign it makes a three symbolizing how many members are left.

  • There is a crack in the wall of the Beatles's sign showing the breakup of the band.

So what do you think its just all a big coincidence that people have found all these things and the Paul McCartney we see today is the real one or do you think he actually did die and they just found a lookalike one to take his place?

Those coincidences are odd; yet they make a lot of sense.

Very interesting. I had heard before of the Greeks taking the shoes off their dead and heard it related to the Abbey Road album, but the rest I had never heard before. Very excited to see what else you uncover.

This concept is sick, its very interesting and a sweet idea. I don’t really see a flaw in your concept so keep it going. I can’t wait to see the final result.

Thats a really cool concept. I hope everything goes well for you in this concept.

I don't think he died. In my opinion, you can pretty much find "secret messages" in everything.

Incase you're interested look into backmasking, one of The Beatle's songs, I'm So Tired, if you play it backwards says "Paul is dead miss him miss him." Just some food for thought.

I can say with absolute certainty that everything in the picture is a coincidence. If you search hard enough you could argue that the Beatles were devil worshippers. Let me try: there are 4 Beatles over 6 lines in the road. 4 over 6 (or 4 divided by 6) is .666. 666 is the number of the beast. Now of course this claim is ridiculous; I'm just showing you an example of how you can find a conspiracy anywhere if you're looking hard enough.

I can't believe how intricate people get with these things. It's almost like every little thing can be some sort of symbol in people's minds. Personally, I don't believe those rumors but I find the symbolic evidence very interesting and convincing. Symbols in music are found everywhere, and if you can find more, put them on your blog becuase I would love to read them!
