Something that genuinely fucks me up every time I think about it or read it again is that all my loving was playing on the hospital sound system when John was pronounced dead. Like what. the. actual. fuck. By far one of the craziest Mclennon facts out there.

#big if true #and by big i mean emotionally devestating

“It was at the Liverpool Empire. I was looking at John on the stage, but all I could see was him as a little boy. I always used to take him to the Empire at Christmas for his annual treat. I remember the time we’d seen Puss in Boots. It had been snowing and John’s Wellingtons were still on in the theatre. When Puss came on in his big boots, John stood up and shouted, ‘Mimi, he’s got his Wellington boots on! So have I.’ His little voice was heard everywhere and everyone looked at him and smiled.”

— John Lennon’s Aunt Mimi

#WHORE! 🫵🤬

I've probably said this already but I do think the reason I'm so obsessed with mclennon vs. other insane gay music duos is johns death like I know that makes me evil or whatever but paul spending half his life mourning and struggling to cope with losing john is just so compelling to me. Compared to like other music breakups where I'm like ok ur both alive so bootycall each other or stfu already 🙄🙄🙄 meanwhile mccartney is in his house surrounded by pictures of john and johns art and art hes made about john and calendars of john and johns piano bench, constantly talking/thinking/writing songs about john. It just doesn't compare. To me.

#yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes and yes #this is precisely it for me #the tragedy of continuing on without your other half. never knowing how it might’ve ended #has that one guy not read catcher and bought a gun. #a random act of extreme violence and it destroyed one whole part of paul’s life forever. and ended john’s. #like hey wtf

John Lennon, Icke Braun and Bettina Derlien, Hamburg 1966

Hans-Walther (Icke) Braun was a friend of the Beatles in Hamburg. He is the source of one of the main bootlegs of the early Beatles music (the Braun tape -- given to him by Paul) and his name can be heard on the Star Club recording (Paul dedicates Till There Was You to him). He wrote an autobiography in German in 2018, which includes the following:

“And you, Icke?” asked Paul. “Who’s your favourite author?” “Henry Miller. I think he’s very good,” I said. In that moment John suddenly looked over at me. Until then he had been watching Bettina, the bar lady, rinsing glasses and tidying up the bar, with his typical somewhat blasé expression. Our discussion hadn’t seemed to interest him much. Now he was looking directly into my eyes. Quietly and without taking his eyes off me, he walked around the whole counter over to me, planted a kiss on my mouth and went back to his spot. At first, I was quite surprised and didn’t know what to do about it, then I found it rather funny and thought little of it. A few days later, it happened again. I happened upon* him in the hallway behind the stage and again he took my hand and kissed me. At some point the thought occurred to me, “man, he thinks I’m gay, but I can’t help him with that.” What was really going on, I don’t know. Maybe he meant the kisses as overtures; he was even treated as a closet case by homosexuals. No idea. In any case, I saw his girlfriend Cynthia, who visited him in Hamburg in 1961 and whom he married a year later. Apart from that, as far as I know, he spent his time ...

Note: *treffen (traf, in the past tense) is usually translated as meet, but it can mean “happen upon” and probably that’s what’s meant here, from context

Thanks also to @paulsrighthand and her Mum for working on translating the book for us.

Original German:

„Und du, Icke? fragte Paul. Wer ist dein Lieblingsautor?" „Henry Miller. Den finde ich richtig gut," sagte ich. Im selben Morent blickte John ruckartig zu mir rüber. Bis dahin hatte er mit seinem üblichen, leicht blasierten Gesichtsausdruck Bettina, die Barfrau, beobachtet, wie sie Gläser spülte und die Bar aufräumte. Unser Gespräch schien ihn nichtbesonders zu interessieren. Jetzt sah er mir direkt in die Augen. Schweigend undohne den Blick von mir zu nehmen, kam er um den ganzen Tresen zu mir, gab mireinen Kuss auf den Mund und ging wieder zurück zu seinem Platz. Im ersten Mo-ment war ich ziemlich überrascht und wusste nichts damit anzufangen, dann fandich es her witzig und dachte mir weiter nichts dabei. Ein paar Tage später pas-sierte es nochmal. Ich traf ihn auf dem Gang hinter der Bühne, und wieder nahm ermeine Hand und küsste mich. Das hat mich irgendwann auf den Gedanken ge-bracht, Mensch, der denkt, ich bin schwul, aber damit kann ich ihm leider nichtdienen. Was wirklich dahinter steckte, weiß ich nicht. Vielleicht hat er die Küsse als Annäherungsversuche gemeint, unter Homosexuellen wurde er soar als Klemm-schwuler gehandelt. Keine Ahnung. Auf jeden Fall habe ich einmal seine FreundinCynthia gesehen, die ihn 1961 in Hamburg besuchte und die er ein Jahr späterdann ja geheiratet hat. Abgesehen davon trieb er sich, soweit ich das beurteilen kann, oft und gern mit anderen Mädchen rum.

(this text is taken from OCR, so there may be small errors in the German).

The term 'closet case' is Klemm-schwuler.
