I heard it....cool.
If you listen very carefully to the original version of "Hey Jude",
between 2'.57" and 2'.59" you can clearly hear John Lennon say
"Ohhh......fuckin' hell" after he fluffs a harmony.
It probably wasn't audible to any degree on AM radio in 1968, but I'm
overjoyed that his obscenity has been played on radio countless
millions of times all over the world and seemingly no-one's ever
noticed it or complained.
Phil.
