Some people think it is repetitive, but the point is that this is a condition for fully appreciate the sudden following arise of two notes, the marvellous climax. Then follows that for Lennon typical hammering on the same note in the refrain. Lennon could have been inspired by the divine service music he loved as a child.

It starts with long anthemic so wonderful notes, it´s more like a hymn than pop music. The more you listen, the more you love it. I think John Lennon´s All You Need Is Love is the Beatles best song. (or, put another way, “Don’t fret over things over which you have no control but you can ‘learn the game’ and ‘be yourself’ and be content with your station in life and focus on doing good to others (love)”.

(the tails of the third lines, “…learn how to play the game” and “…learn how to be you inside” lead perfectly to the more encouraging idea of the Chorus.) I suppose the Chorus (“It’s easy, AYNIL”) is not sarcastic if taken to mean, “Life’s easy, if you don’t concern yourself with anything except having love in your life, because you can’t change the other circumstances”. I think the rather mocking-sounding descending chromatic horn lick in the chorus reinforces this attitude, the implied idea being: “yeah, sure - love, HARD WORK, AND / OR A LOT OF LUCK, is all you need!” Also, I’ve always felt John’s meaning in every verse line is INCORRECTLY perceived by most listeners to be encouraging, when it is actually a rather cynical, fatalistic message i.e., taken literally, (and John seems usually very careful about every word he writes) “There’s nothing you can do that can’t be done” does NOT mean ‘There’s nothing you can’t do’, but rather ‘If it can’t be done, you, or anyone, is not going to be able to do it.” This carries all the way to the last line, “…nowhere you can be that isn’t where you’re meant to be”, meaning, ‘Wherever you are is where you’re supposed to be, so don’t try to change it’ (sort of a predestination statement). I, too, remember either reading or hearing John say words to the effect that AYNIL was meant as sarcasm. I found your comment as I’m researching the same subject.

However, has anyone else seen that interview?! I really don’t think I’m making this up or imagining it. They had some inspiration, quickly put something down and then sooner or later realized the lyric worked in other ways.

I think the story that John wrote AYNIL ironically, and then changed his mind, is absolutely one of the ways that the lyrics of John & the Beatles came together. As time went on, as I understand it, John came to view AYNIL as, in many respects, his SIGNATURE song, at least in terms of a message describing his deepest values and ideals (probably along with Give Peace A Chance). In that unknown/forgotten interview, he said that either after he wrote AYNIL, or perhaps during the process, he then looked at the lyric and realized that a more literal interpretation of the lofty concepts in AYNIL’s lyrics made amazing poetic sense, and, consequently, John had an about-face regarding the song’s meaning. AND HE/I/YOU COULD SEE THAT! John was often sarcastic and he was quick to notice and talk (or sing) about various ironies in life. So here’s my question to you all: I KNOW I read somewhere (it could’ve been a sound interview but I feel like I read it…) that John said he began writing this lyric from a SARCASTIC point-of-view! Like “Oh yeah, ALL your problems will be solved with ‘love’…HA!”….
