I still the think the song is (mostly) about LSD.
RIP, Lucy.

That is true! Not that The Beatles ever took drugs!Originally Posted by Luanne
I've always heard it was about LSD. And, that is by far more interesting than this version.
RIP Lucy.
RIP Lucy. Maybe she is really now in the sky with diamonds.

This is something I didn't know, very sad.

It scares me to see that anyone died from lupus! My grandmother had it and now my cousin, who is 30, was diagnosed in her early 20's. In fact, we're doing a Lupus Foundation walk on Saturday! Woo hoo for us! lol

46. So young. Hell of a way to be immortalized though.

I have lupus and I'm freaking terrified!
I didnt think it was possible for someone to die from lupus. I thought maybe due to complications from lupus they would get really really sick, but not die.
I'm freaked out.
I too have lupus and have most likely had it since my early 20's due to symptoms I've suffered but was not diagnosed until about 7 years ago...it is my understanding with this disease is that for some it attacks the joints and compromises the immune system while in others it attacks the major organs causing damage to them..such as the kidneys heart lungs etc
discoid lupus and systemic are both different although a person can have both...I have both, so far so good with my organs and although I have a growth on the end of my nose I'm getting checked out (fingers crossed it's not a carcinoma) my biggest issues are joint discomfort and sensitivity to the sun
I knew a long time ago a person could die from it and that there is no cure..but I also know that if a person is medicated and does their therapies that organ damage can be prevented...it is quite possible she had the worst form of this disease or she didn't have very good health care and the issues escalated when if she would have had proper care her life could have been prolonged
I've come to terms with the fact that I will someday die..whether from this disease, old age or if I get hit by a bus...I just make it a point to LIVE with it the best way I can
No,not the Beatles............. RIP Lucy!That is true! Not that The Beatles ever took drugs!
I always thought the song was a tribute to Johanson's "Lucy" -- who has been dead a very long time -- as opposed to a real live Lucy. Sorry my mind works in a different way.
I lost a good friend to Lupus a decade ago. She was in her late 30s at the time.

That song is probably where the remake(Elton John)
is better than the original(The Beatles)
One of the few times I can think of it doing so.

RIP such greatness to be an inspiration for a classic song!
