If you are like me and miss the trippy, ambiguous and downright creepy work of Iamaphoney, just take a look at this new video that Paul McCartney released to his fans officially:
Paul McCartney - A Trip To Lagos
This man they call McCartney never ceases to amaze me.

The smartest thing Iamaphoney could do is to hold off on part 5 for a long while and generate interest that way. In 6 months viewers will be clamoring for the final chapter and it'll spawn more attention. He could put something on his YouTube page like "You will see 5/5 when you're ready" or "part 5 coming in 2011".
He's taken my advice before (ahem!) and he ought to do it again if he wants to keep this thing going.

Just like your comment to Tafultong, "When is the in depth dissection?"
Iamaphoney agreed with you and is enlisting the whole Muslim world to convince Tafultong to write about this new series.
Because Youtube already tells us when the new videos are up its pretty redundant for taf to mention it right Mike?

Excellent work! thanks!
He has a blog too
and an email
ron@workingreporter.com
it sounds nothing like the guy on the winged beatle videos from iamaphoney..... so i bet the answer will be "No". but maybe he knows the guy who did
http://workingreporter.com/OlsenVoiceoverDemo.mp3
listen for yourself
i thought that NIR proved it was the smuckers voice over guy?!!
they proved it beyond a shadow of a doubt...
with photographic evidence....
I didn't do it folks.
Never heard of lamaphoney
But I would be available for any voice work you would like me to do!
iamafunny should hire you dude
I can't believe Phoney included some of the weakest "clues" in the doc.
I mean, that thing about the original Let it Be pics being all white and then the final background is red on Paul. Well, we all know the background was red--it's from the movie and that was the color. If the Beatles were planning on inserting a death clue, why would the originals be all white anyway? And what a lame clue anyway, ooohhh, it's RED so it must mean death or blood. Please. Besides, white could be a clue because then you could say it represents heaven, and if it was a black background you could say it means death.
Really lame.
iamaphoney, we will trade you The Winged Beatle Parts 1-4 for part 5
You can keep the first four of them, you give us Part 5.
The St Paul timeline is intriguing, and the fact that it was a Maclen release. The song isn't necessarily about Paul being dead, though, is the thing.
Also, there was an article "Is Paul really Dead?" published three months after St Paul came out, which means it was already a rumor well in circulation, and there is no way to calculate when the rumor started. It could have started many months prior to St Paul, and in fact there had been a rumor based on a Jan 1967 crash of Paul's mini cooper in which it was falsely reported Paul was inside, and then the moped accident in Dec 1967, so at least two chances to start rumors.
I can also see the Beatles hearing those rumors and thinking it might be cool to play with the idea and drop clues for publicity, and then they couldn't admit it because it would make them look conniving, but Lennon surely would have admitted it later when he was at war with Macca and didn't give a whit about what he said.
I dare you to say that to me on Youtube.
you know, I read that the Dutch documentary about Paul is Dead got all into the St Paul thing and the timeline.
So, it's Dutch, right? Same argument.
So is it part of the same project or did the Phoney guys just latch onto it?
Still no response from Ron Olsen. I contacted him via the e-mail address on his official website. If anyone knows any other way to reach him, please help!
@ Ronald Olsen/Blue Linker
Nice try, Mr. Blue Link.
At first I thought you were the real deal until I noticed the "I" was an "l": Lamaphoney.
@Anon
I agree with your reasoning that the death clues probably began as a publicity stunt (they were savvy enough to see how their sales ticked up after the "Jesus" comment, for one thing, and tricksters like Carroll were formative influences), but I think Manson is the key reason why they never owned up to them.
Morbid publicity games only go so far when there are actual dead people involved.
uh, sorry, Jude, not involved with that nonsense.

I can see the Manson episode giving them yet another reason to not own up, although, technically speaking, the "clues" Manson thought he was finding were mostly in the actual songs themselves, not in the album covers or reversals etc. I mean, he basically misinterpreted mundane songs to fit in with his ideas, like Helter Skelter and Blackbird, and that would have happened whether or not Paul was barefoot on Abbey Road or the armpatch looked like OPD.
The phoney documentary makes this bold statement that the rumors started five months after St Paul was released. This is untrue. Sure the rumors went national after the Russ Gibb broadcast, but obviously the caller to Gibb already heard of the rumors and clues, which meant they were already floating around.
And then Fred LaBour did what NIR peeps do (except as a joke) and invented a bunch of clues and that was that.

The first thing the narrator says is

Let me quote from part 4:
"In May, 1969, five months before the rumors starting spreading, the song was released in Detroit already."
Is this a true statement? No.
It's true it was a Detroit release, and the radio station was in Detroit, so there's a possible connection, or perhaps the rumors were jump-started by the Beatles there.
Not sure about St Paul as a death clue though. However, considering Manson picked up on the fact that in the New Testament you have both John and Paul, and Terry Knight alluding to the religious symbolism, they might have wanted to keep it secret to prevent more wackos thinking they were prophets, and maybe why Lennon went out of his way to shatter the Beatle mythos.
Right, the symbolism plays in with Manson's thinking. Iamaphoney is exploiting, for whatever reason, what the Beatles themselves were wise to leave alone.

Well with the Beatles there were bound to be religious overtones. They were so huge, in a way that no artists are today, and from early on there were murmurs about their being devil music and all that, like Elvis before, but much more because they were a far bigger international phenomenon. And there were accusations that they were a Communist plot, and the Communists accused them of being Western propaganda hahaha.
Lennon called himself Jesus (while high, mind you) and all the other pseudo-Jesus-y stuff he was into, like a lot of hippies were.
But he realized later he was a goofball and downplayed all that. Funny he made the sarcastic remark that he'd seen religion from Jesus to Paul when he was clearly the one with the messianic complex of sorts. Paul was Mr Showbiz, far more interested in writing fun hooks and pleasing crowds than he was into saving the world or that sort of cause-oriented stuff.
The Walrus was Paul, therefore the Carpenter must have been John "they're gonna crucify me" Lennon.
Here again is the problematic symbolism.

Yep. Fans began with a preconceived narrative and then came up against obvious contradictions. Well if Paul is Jesus then who is John? That sort of thing. As though it really is a narrative. And then you get all the wild speculation to make it all fit somehow, and that's what I found when researching the NWO and Masonry etc. You think it makes sense and then another fact comes to light that contradicts your theory. So then you have to say, "Well that contradiction is intentional" or whatever you have to do to get it coherent. This is exactly what happened with the earth-centered universe. The astronomers had to overlook tons of counter evidence and the more they did, the more elaborate their theories grew. When something is unwieldy and overly complex, it's usually a sign that the theory is wrong.
Actually, I would think the carpenter image links Jesus to John (which might have been his intention to begin with, given the infamous comment and complex), and not Paul, but you're right about the basic fallacy inherent in a priori conspiracy theories.

Thing is, the Walrus in I am the Walrus is obviously Carroll-inspired but there is no mention of the carpenter. If there had been I might take that theory more seriously.
Also you have the guys dressed up in MMT and in that case in again messes up the theory because you have a rabbit and a hippo hahaha.
The Walrus is a bay in Namibia, and it wasn't a carpenter it was a car painter but the transcriber misheard it. That's right JESUS WAS A CAR PAINTER and he only charged $99.95 plus tax, and you got a free Caesar salad while you waited! Ahhh those were the days, but since the rapture happened on July 16, well, now you better get Maaco.
Breaker one, breaker one, I might be crazy but I ain't dumb; Walruses ain't got names or thumbs.

I agree with you in theory but Elvis became more of a messianic figure and his fame had more religious overtones to more people than the Beatles ever did. There are churches of Elvis. There are people who pray to Elvis. They hold up Elvis as a Christlike figure who willingly put himself through physical pain and suffering to bring his spiritually healing music to his fans.To them he died for his followers. Even while alive, Elvis claimed to have healing powers and his random acts of outlandish generosity gave him a God status to the poor folk he rescued from poverty.
To put it in perspective, The Beatles are symbolic of the cultural shift among young people in the 1960's and are held up as the gold standard for songwriting and producing. While the Beatles remain much more popular in America than they do in their native Britain, Elvis is as much a beloved hero as George Washington or Abe Lincoln. It would not surprise me to see Elvis on U.S. currency some day.
In 2010 Elvis is more famous for his near superhuman mythos than his music. That is not something that the Beatles could claim (not even the image of the dead peacenik John Lennon). Remember that when the Beatles met Elvis they, at the height of their fame and success, had to come to HIM.

It's as ridiculous as Paul Is Dead but the desire to have a supernatural explanation for either the Beatles or Elvis' success is so great in these people that it becomes an obsession despite failing any credibility.

(And no, that wasn't Mystery Science Theater 3000 in the video above! :-)
Looking for clues?
We'll see. I mean, you showed them so much, even if they never saw
that's what's known as a self-serving statement hahaha
it's also what's known as epic fail
I'm still kind of shocked at the quality of these "documentary" vids on Phoney's page.
what happened? The resolution is poor, the titles are teeny-tiny and even the pan and zoom stuff on photos(which the editor(s) usually excel in on RA stuff) is amateurish. It really looks like a different editor took over, and not a semi-pro or perhaps pro the way the RA stuff looked.
Worst of all, that narrator is horribly miscast. That folksy down-home style makes everything he says sound hilarious, especially because the subject matter is supposed to be kind of spooky but he delivers it like he's talking about Oat Bran or something.

The revelation is nothing but good news.
Word UP, move your asses.

Uh...actually it's you who needs to move your ass. Iamaphoney is holding part 5 hostage because you're too busy laying on the couch with a bag of Cheetohs and wailing about the revelation inbetween catnaps. If you weren't so damn lazy we'd have part 5 by now!
yeah, right

Phoney has held up everyone that cares (all 20 of you) since day one and countless carrots dangled and promises and nothing has ever happened worth mentioning, not even parts 1-4. It's always the "next" thing that will blow our minds.
Besides, even when part 5 comes out and sucks, you'll have to move on to "The Revelation" because obviously it's not going to be in Part 5.
nothing is real

I see. Your idea of "moving your ass" is sitting in front of your PC and typing two words. Great. At this rate we'll never get part 5.
As for me, I'm going out tonight and I WILL be moving my ass unlike our hapless Drill Sergeant friend. My ass serves as a babe magnet. I wiggle it with ferocity. I may even talk to a girl tonight. Might even touch one too.
Hasta fat boys!

EAT YOUR DAMN OATMEAL... (anytime you choose)
i agree, the narration was about as good a decision as the suitcases were. a funny decision.
i am in diabetic shock over it. give me my liberty medical insulin shot to wake me up when part 5 arrives.

The ear is silent
