In case anybody doesn't know, the majority of what John's saying here is utter bollocks.
Bonne chance [good luck], la mer [the sea] merde [shit], enchante [enchanted, usually said when meeting someone, as in it's delightful to meet you], pomme de terre [potatoe, basically ground apple]
He calls Paul cheri, a term of endearment, one possible meaning is darling.
I love how the picture of John and Paul sitting beside each other, drinking their Cokes, it looks like Paul has his hand on John's thigh.
John singing in French, winking at the camera, singing Lady Marmalade by Patti LaBelle, and the line "voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?" which translates to "do you want to sleep with me tonight?" And I'm supposed to believe that it isn't to Paul?
For whatever reason, Paul is anxious about it. I can't tell, and maybe it's a visual thing, but John knows.
At 1:00 you can hear John talking about someone, Paul, freaking out. At 1:06, you can hear him say, "stop freaking out, Mrs." It apparently works as you don't hear Paul sort of mumbling as much.
He calls Paul Mrs...as in his Mrs....teehee
Dusty flirts with George, no one cares; Dusty flirts with Ringo, no one cares. Dusty flirts with John, no one cares.
Dusty flirts with Paul...you can almost hear the *fahching* of John's claws coming out and then how catty he is with Dusty, asking her about her scabs. Paul gives John the finger. It's okay, John, you're not her type, if you know what I mean.
This is the most obvious I've ever publicly seen John ogle Paul.
First time John checks out Paul in his cowboy hat is 2:49. He then gets in a side glance in at 3:04. Third at 3:23.
Then at 3:26, Ringo, God bless 'im, starts posting and everyone begins to do it. At 3:33, John takes his fourth look. At 3:42, John looks across at him, then leans back because when you post, your arse come off the horse. It's not as much here as it would be on an actual horse, but Johnny's hoping to catch a look at Pauly's backside as he lifts himself off of his seat
Ringo then, God bless 'im, again, brings up how hot it was in New Orleans.
John: "Very hot. Exceedingly hot." He most defo is not talking about the weather.
Paul was totally wearing that cowboy hat when they did it later.
Incidentally, I would read the fuck out of George Harrison's detective thriller novel.
It picks up again at 6:30 with John being the microphone holder. Everyone gets the mic held a bit away from their mouth. Everyone except Paul. At 7:55, John gets that mic riigghht up almost at Paul's lips. Subtlety, thy name is not John Lennon.
I think Paul bouncing the mic of off his chin is him responding to John doing what he did to the mic.
The audio picks up at :53 seconds. There is a specific part, but this whole scene is fascinating because after knowing each other for over eleven years at this point, the amount of times they still look over at each other, either turning their heads, or just flicking their eyes across, for no other reason but to look at each other is insane.
At 5:40, you look like a Victorian miner, and Paul puts his hand in his hair. John says, "mess me up, baby, and my red hot [?]." Paul's response is to stretch up to the light and let out a groan, and put his hands in his hair.
People knew. They had to know because how could you not. They may not have said anything, but people knew that there was something going on with them.
