    Hi, I realize that some of you may want to watch A day in the life without any pauses, I know it can be a vibe killer, but please take this into consideration, reaction videos need to consider Fairuse, sometimes videos get blocked, and we have to go through the youtube process of disputing it on grounds of fair use, its a process, If some of you prefer to watch the video without any pauses I am putting the link to the original content right here czcams.com/video/usNsCeOV4GM/video.html&ab_channel=TheBeatlesVEVO

      Agree! The video is out there. We watch reactors to see their reactions, not to listen to uncut video. People are not being reasonable.

      @@sourisvoleur4854 Of course it can't be helped if an uncut song will be blocked. But I think what upsets listeners is Yes, they want to see reactions but they feel the reactions themselves are compromised if the reactor can only listen to disjointed fragments. I realise there's no easy solution...

    Hearing different instruments on different sides is called panning, something that you’re going to notice a lot more with older music, if you weren’t wearing headphones 🎧 you would’ve missed out 👍 please be kind and rewind after pausing

    The Beatles were pioneers always experimenting. They perfected the Beat-boy band sound very quickly. Then got a bit deeper. Help is sold as a jaunty pop song but listen to the lyrics and it is a real cry for help. They perfected amazing harmonies with Girl and This Boy, and again moved on to be at the forefront of psychedelic rock Lucy in the sky, then heavy metal, yes heavy metal with Helter-skelter and Revolution, and with this song A Day in the Life and Because, among others, there are aspects of early prog-rock about them. Not every song is amazing, but so many of them are. Saying that they are the most influential rock band is not an exaggeration.
    Don't worry about pausing we can hear the whole track elsewhere, we are here for your reaction.

    Another precious reaction. I had to laugh bc at the start of the song, you commented on the combination of the instruments and how they affected you by the way they were balanced in each speaker. All the while, I was thinking to myself....just wait until she hears the crescendo in the midpoint-that'll really blow her mind. Now, you have to go back and relisten without any interruptions to reap the intended vibe of the song. As much as I enjoy the video, I believe it's a distraction to first-time listeners. You may want to forego it. Enjoy!

    Hello! Just found your channel and I quite enjoyed your reaction to this song! You're right, this is a song that we all keep listening to again and again in order to enjoy and comprehend it. There's so much going on, all sorts of sounds and little audio treats. When The Beatles made this song--and even the record it came from--they we're on the forefront of a movement where they and other bands and musicians of their time (i.e. The Rolling Stones, The Who, Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, etc.) were trying to transform pop rock into something to be considered as art. Before The Beatles made records like this, a lot of people considered them to be just another pop group not to be taken seriously. The Beatles themselves wrote this song to be a think piece but also a swirling kaleidoscope of sound. John Lennon took some lines from newspaper articles and wrote surrealistic takes on what he had read and he also included a little plug for a movie he appeared in at the time called, "How I Won The War"; Paul McCartney took some lyrics from a song he had not finished about waking up in the morning and added that to the middle of the song and came up with the idea of hiring an orchestra and letting them freak out while they moved from one octave to the next! The album this song comes from, called Sargent Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band is one of the greatest records ever made and deserves to be listened to from the first theme song to "A Day In The Life", all in one sitting. It's a masterpiece! Love you! You're beautiful! I look forward to seeing more of your reactions!

    LSD was pretty easy to get and not yet outlawed. It definitely made it way into the Beatles' creations and they had great record producer that made all kinds of things possible. It was the summer of love era. Freeing the mind and body was a thing.

  • @gidouille
    @gidouille Před 15 dny +1

    It opens with Lennon's narrative thought to be inspired by a report on the death of Tara Browne, a Guinness heir and London socialite well known to the Beatles who was killed in a car crash in 1966. Then he references a film, which may be the one he'd just appeared in, a a dark comedy about WWII, Richard Lester's How I Won the War. The part that really discombobulated you was a 24 bar continuous glissando with all the orchestra players told to begin on the lowest pitch of their instrument and slide up to the highest pitch on their instruments ending near an E major chord at a prescribed tempo. They recorded it four times, and collaged all the takes together. The middle part is McCartney with a prosaic slice of life, waking up, getting ready, a cup of tea, running for a bus, he said it was a reminiscence of school days. The third part has Lennon again drawing on a news article, this one concerning the discovery of thousands of potholes in Blackburn, Lancashire. The end is a sustained E major chord played by Lennon, McCartney, Starr and Mal Evans sharing three pianos, with George Martin on harmonium. As the sound decayed they continually turned up the recording levels to make it ring as long as possible. By the end the levels are so hot you can hear all the ambient sounds in the room. Of course the magic is in how it's all put together, the atmosphere created. Hope that helps.

    Yes, the track is a little spooky... I don't want to write too much, I recommend the Wikipedia entry for A day in the life, a song from 1967 (the last tune of one their most legendary albums, "Sgt.Pepper's lonely Hearts Club Band"), that practically made a new genre, "progrock" (progressive rock), possible and caused a lot of confusion 57 years ago.
    But this is generally true of the Beatles, that their music has left huge traces in modern popular culture, which countless musicians have tried to enter, often in vain. But this band not only developed a flagship position in terms of music, which has become the best-selling in the age of recorded music to this day, but also in terms of behavior and in terms of their worldview in general, many people on this planet broadened their horizons in connection with the Beatles/Beatlemania.

    @alanstein5930 Před 5 dny

    In all honesty, you should force yourself to listen to the WHOLE SONG ALL AT ONCE!
    It takes you on an astonishing, masterful musical journey. And you won't truly appreciate what you've heard without digesting it like a sumptuous meal---without leaving the table.
    I think that this song doesn't has one clear meaning. But here's a couple of things that stand out to me:
    1) the singer feels alienated and emotionally removed from the world around him..He describes, seeing a tragically deadly car accident, seeing a film about war, but he sounds distant and emotionally removed.
    2) On some level, however, he must be traumatized because he sings "I'd love to turn you on" (which in the lingo of 1967, referred to share a drug )ike cannabis or, more likely, LSD. Then the orchestra swells, getting louder and faster and more chaotic, which I believe represents the "LSD trip" that he's experiencing; 3) when the music swells the second time, I believe that it represents the singer "crashing back down to Earh; 4) when he crashes back down to reality, he is back leading a mundane life, rushing to catch the bus to get to work, etc: 5) The next thinh is the music swelling frenetically, suggesting that he took another"trip" to escape the pain of life; 6) and then comes the foreboding finality of the powerfull piano chord. The chord sounds foreboding and final; 7) what that says is anybody's guess. Perhaps The Beatles did this deliberately in order to engage the audience's interest. But that's just a guess based on my experiences.
