I'm not sure if you guys are just having fun, or if you are trying to get at something...
If the latter is it, then let me remind you that Revolver was done before their deaths.

No, I wasn't really trying to get at anything...but what you said about "divine design" did remind me of something I was thinking about...
The last song that Paul sang on Revolver was "Got To Get You Into My Life"
I think it's pretty self explainatory...(not to mention that it's followed up by a little song called "Tomorrow Never Knows", but I think I am looking too hard into this by going that far).

Wow Otacon, I hadn't thought of that before. That's spooky. I don't think you're looking too hard. It just depends on whether you are looking for hard evidence (which you'll probably never find in album clues anyway) or just little pieces of the bigger picture. I do believe people sense it on some level when a traumatic event is close at hand. They may not realize it consciously, but afterwards can look back on their state of mind and see signs of warning that didn't make sense at the time. Is this the feeling that came through on Revolver...? Eleanor Rigby was, quite unintentionally, a song very much about Brian. Another anagram from the title itself: none belong...and truly Brian never belonged anywhere, in life or in death. I'm not here to have fun, or to prove anything...I'm here primarily to grieve for what happened. It's sort of a conflict of interest, since this is supposed to be an "investigation" board, and gravediggers carelessly sling dirt in the faces of mourners. I'll put my face back in the jar now so I don't bother anyone else with my irrelevant, unscientific commentary  |

There are many true life examples of "coincidental foreshadowing" that have happened to famous people.
I refer to Vivien Leigh (again) in that she played a psychologically disturbed, sexually obsessed woman in "Streetcar named Desire", and she was rehearsing for Braodway in a play called "Skin of Our Teeth" when she died. The role she was playing was based on the main charactor from"Our Lady of the Camelias", which is about a victim of Tuberculosis. The charater succombs at the end of the story; Viven died befoe it ever opened (as I recall) and was replaced. She died of tuberculosis. The TB had been under control; why did this play come up for her at this time of her life? No reason, I guess. But, it did.
Irene Ryan, Granny on Beverly Hillbillies, was on Broadway in 1972 doing the part of the old grandmother of the prince, Pippin. She has a big solo in which she sings about the fact that she is so old, she would rather go out, die, lioving it up, being busy, doing the very thing she wanted. The number was called, "No Time At All." She dropped dead at the end of the song, during a preformance.
Shall I tell more? It happens.
Clark Gable in The MIsfits, Sharon Tate in Valley of the Dolls, there' s others.
