When I first heard it as a teenager, I thought it was the coolest song I’d ever heard. Five decades later I still think that.
I’ve loved the Beatles since 1980. I enjoy the Walrus tune. Contrary to the inevitable Beatles’ naysayers on every Beatles’ thread, they were extremely gifted. Paul Mac, back in his heyday, put out musical genius level stuff. Not every tune, but scores of their music stands the test of time and if humans are around 100 years from now, they will still be an influence.

In the song Glass Onion he says “here’s another clue for you all, the walrus was Paul” and I wondered if that meant in the cover costume photo shoot. Here is another slant on this:
Why did John say the walrus was Paul?
Lennon dismissed any deep meaning to the mysterious lyrics: I threw the line in—”the Walrus was Paul”—just to confuse everybody a bit more. It could have been “the fox terrier is Paul”. I mean, it’s just a bit of poetry. From genius.com
