It's a great song.

i love the song.

it may be extremely short, but i like it alot

Great band.... wait a minute.

It is one of my it is short but I love the guitar in it and it is a brilliant opening to have. The reprise is also very good and Hendrixs live version is amazing especially so soon after its release.

Was Sgt. Pepper real,or just a made up character?

From Wikipedia

In November 1966, on the flight back to England after a holiday, McCartney conceived an idea in which an entire album would be role-played, with each of The Beatles assuming an alter-ego in the "Lonely Hearts Club Band", which would then perform a concert in front of an audience. The inspiration is said to have come when roadie Mal Evans innocently asked McCartney what the letters âSâ and âPâ stood for on the pots on their in-flight meal trays, and McCartney explained it was for salt and pepper. This then led to the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band concept, as well as the song. According to producer George Martin, the song was recorded before the album, but he also said that it started the idea of a concept album based around the main Sgt. Pepper character.

Both the video & the song are very bizarre. But you're right, it's highly underrated.

It's very apparent that the Beatles were high when they wrote their songs.

*Is kidding, but not really*

Actually they barely wrote any songs why they were high. Lennon liked to come up with confusing lyrics, because everyone used to try to uncode his songs about drugs.

Yeah, I know. It's just an ongoing joke that the Beatles wrote their songs while they were high.

But they ARE awesome. I never understood I Am the Walrus, but it's got a great video.

Sitting in an English garden

If the sun don't come you get a tan

Goo goo g'joob g'goo goo g'joob g'goo.

This song is beautiful. I am the Walrus! One of my favorite Beatles songs.

I love almost every Beatles song. There are a select few I just didn't like.

Sgt. Pepper's(...) was a great song and an amazing album.
