Accordint to Wikipedia Buddy Holly's "Everyday" (note the compound word
for=
m) came=20
out in July of 1957 and John Locke, according to Lostpedia, was born on
May=
30, 1956,=20
a year and two months before the song was released so yeah, something is
wr=
ong, but I=20
think it is a simple continuity error and not a hint or clue or meant to
fo=
ol the=20
character. Who is it fooling? Not Lock, he wasn't thinking about those
thin=
g. When a=20
character has a flashback the character IS NOT thinking about it. In other
=
words we=20
are not seeing the character's thoughts at the time of the flashback (when
=
we saw=20
Horace chopping down trees to build the cabin in Locke's vision THAT was
se=
eing into=20
his mind). The flashbacks are for the audiences benefit. From that I think
=
someone=20
goofed is all and got the date of the release of the song wrong or misread
=
the show=20
bible and got John Locke's birthday wrong. =20
