"She Said She Said" is a song written by John Lennon (credited to Lennon–McCartney) and released by the Beatles on their 1966 album ''Revolver''. Lennon described it as "an 'acidy' song" with lyrics inspired by actor Peter Fonda's comments during an LSD trip in 1965 with members of the Beatles and the Byrds. ==Background and inspiration== In late August 1965, Brian Epstein had rented a house at 2850 Benedict Canyon Drive in Beverly Hills, California for the Beatles' six-day respite from their US tour. The large Spanish-style house was tucked into the side of a mountain. Soon their address became widely known and the area was besieged by fans, who blocked roads and tried to scale the steep canyon while others rented helicopters to spy from overhead. The police department detailed a tactical squad of officers to protect the band and the house. The Beatles found it impossible to leave and instead invited guests, including actors Eleanor Bron (who co-starred with them in ''Help!''), Peggy Lipton and folk singer Joan Baez. On 24 August, they hosted the Byrds and actor Peter Fonda and, all except Paul McCartney, took LSD. Fonda wrote for ''Rolling Stone'' magazine: As the group passed time in the large sunken tub in the bathroom, Fonda brought up his nearly fatal self-inflicted childhood gunshot accident, writing later that he was trying to comfort a frightened George Harrison. Fonda said that he knew what it was like to be dead. Lennon snapped, "Listen mate, shut up about that stuff", and "You're making me feel like I've never been born." Lennon later explained: "We didn't want to hear about that! We were on an acid trip and the sun was shining and the girls were dancing (some from ''Playboy'', I believe) and the whole thing was really beautiful and Sixties. And this guy – who I really didn't know, he hadn't made ''Easy Rider'' or anything – kept coming over, wearing shades, saying 'I know what it's like to be dead,' and we kept leaving him because he was so boring. It was scary, when you're flying high: 'Don't tell me about it. I don't want to know what it's like to be dead!'" Harrison recalls in ''The Beatles Anthology'': "() was showing us his bullet wound. He was very uncool." When someone realised that they had not eaten all day the group tried to make dinner in the kitchen but Lennon was too confused from the drug to use his knife and fork properly and as he tried to stop his food from moving around on his plate he spilled it onto the floor. Actress Salli Sachse recalled of Fonda's enthusiasm for the band: "Peter was really into music. He couldn't wait until The Beatles' ''Revolver'' album came out. We went to the music store and played it, trying to hear any hidden messages." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「She Said She Said」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
