Nowhere M 1968 Movie Yellow Submarine

“Nowhere Man” is a song by the Beatles played in the 1968 movie Yellow Submarine. The song alliterates the word “no” in words such as nothing and nowhere to emphasize the uncertain point of view of the nowhere man. The alliteration of this syllable also allows the song to maintain a continuous rhythm and gives the stanzas flow. This alliteration keeps the idea of an uncertain point of view a constant theme throughout the song.
The song brings up senses such as seeing and hearing to show that the nowhere man is blind and deaf to others and focuses on what he wants to feel. This lyric also is a juxtaposition to the lively song and vivid colors in this scene of the movie. The inability of the nowhere man to connect to his senses is also ironic
