- According to IMDB: [1] Sandra Bullock was not in the 1981 version of the movie, and she wouldn't have been born yet in the original Splendor in the Grass, made in 1961. Also according to IMDB, Sandra Bullock's first recorded role didn't come until 1987: [2]. It is possible maybe that you are confusing Sandra Bullock with Ally Sheedy, who did have a bit part in said movie? The two actresses are close in age, and have the same hair color and complexion, so maybe it is possible you are confusing them? --Jayron32 04:15, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
- (edit conflict)Given that Ms Bullock was born three years after the movie was made, I suspect she was not in it. → ROUX ₪ 04:17, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
- Not to be picky, but I assume the OP was refering to Splendor in the Grass (1981 film). I covered this in my response alread. --Jayron32 04:20, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
- Grar. In that case, I suggest the OP contact Ms Bullock's agent or publicist, information here. → ROUX ₪ 04:29, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

I can't find anything on the audio splice near the end of the song, immediately after the guitar solo and right as the drum kicks in to segue back into the main passage. It sounds to me like they recorded the song twice: once with Lennon in the closet with the band, and once with Lennon far away from the closet, and then they spliced the two together at the drums section. And yet, I haven't read anything about any edit anywhere on this song, but the sharp, almost instant disappearance of all instruments and audio bleed has bugged me for ages. If I am allowed to link to a YouTube video, the splice can be heard at the 3:16 mark (link begins at 3:10 mark). – Kerαunoςcopia◁galaxies 04:28, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
- Have you tried reading some of the major Beatles recording history books. Some of them are very detailed, especially those by Mark Lewisohn, might I recommend The Complete Beatles Recording Sessions. It would not have been beyond the Beatles to use such splices, after all they did so rather famously in Strawberry Fields Forever, where two versions at different keys and tempos were modulated and spliced together to create a single song. Lots of studio tricks, from Backmasking, to Automatic double tracking were pioneered or invented for the Beatles by their producers and engineers. --Jayron32 04:38, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
- Excellent, I'll get the book, thanks for the suggestion. – Kerαunoςcopia◁galaxies 05:03, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
- If I remember correctly from Recording Sessions (and also from Revolution in the Head, they recorded the band first, with John singing but not being recorded, and then he overdubbed vocals over top of that. If you can hear the the bleed-through lyrics, they aren't exactly the same as the actual recorded lyrics. I forget if it's spliced but it's possible that the song was originally only half as long, and they doubled it, which would also explain why John's voice bleeds through (it would have otherwise been covered by his overdubbed singing). It's pretty long, for a Beatles song. I know they (well, Phil Spector) doubled the length of I Me Mine, at least. Adam Bishop (talk) 15:38, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
- I can see the fascination in the creation of these songs, then. I should probably read the suggested book above all the way through. I had no idea about I Me Mine (and therefore, no idea about any of their other songs). – Kerαunoςcopia◁galaxies 16:53, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
When did John Lennon leave the Beatles?
[edit]Sometime after the recording of Abbey Road and before January 1970, John told the other Beatles that he was leaving the group. Can that date be narrowed down? Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 06:07, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
- Whoops, Sept. 20, 1969. I should have read the article. Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 06:09, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

Looking for an old computer game
[edit]The game was made sometime in the early nineties most likely, and it was a kind of educational game. Basically you went along with a robot, going through several levels of I believe a castle or a laboratory. On each level there were several games to play and you had to win a certain number to move on to the next level. When you got to the top, you had to use a time machine to save the villain from mixing up history by putting his robots in there. You had to repeat this process many times over. 134.126.191.109 (talk) 21:16, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
