Jude-not Julian Lennon

IIRC, Paul came up with the idea for the song while driving out to visit Cynthia and Julian during the period when John was ignoring them.  He used the name Jude because Jules would be too obvious, obviously.  Paul has also said that John Lennon thought that he had written it to him, about the blowback he was getting about his relationship with Yoko.

Julian has also said that Paul was the Beatle who was most considerate of him during the bad times.  He would always send him birthday cards and gifts, just stayed in touch and let him know he cared.

Wait a minute! The bottom line here is that the Beatles back in those days were on major drugs, and the song "Hey Jude" is all about doing Heroin. In the same way Mick Jagger and the Stones sang about "Brown Sugar". I love both bands and have a lot of their music but these are facts. 

You've spoken to them to tell us the facts? Ok.I always thought Brown Sugar was about a woman. Specifically about one of the Stone's back up singers that he had a relationship with for a while.

jtcf , you were wrong.
