"To be a young and a Beatle fan, just heaven."
Damn right it is.
Ikrrr
I will not complain that I am born in the wrong generation. Instead I'll be thankful that I am able to just search anything at anytime these kind of videos
Yes be thankful, at least your in the generation of Justine Bieber.
@@jackbuena9983 nu... ..
At least:')
I actually really like your positive way of thinking
Yeah but it’s sad to know that you will never get to meet John or George
Watching this at 70 years old was so heartwarming. Those were the best years!!! We had it sooo good!!!
Eunice Derenne well said lady 😘
2020 was much more fun,don;t you think? wink...
I would go back to that time just so I have a girl my age that likes the same music 😂
@@kylewilliams4398 I’ll go back with you!!!! It will be be, far out!!!!
I’m 64 and yes we did!
There will never be any other artist or band as big as the beatles, ever
Seeing them answer these silly questions in such a light and good-natured way was part of their charm and, consequently, their success.
Q: How did you find America?
John: Turn left at Greenland
The Beatles could be a once-in-a-lifetime phenomenon
I would say they were more like a flood: once every 500 or 10,000 years.
Once in a universe
1963 1964 when the Beatles were at their best. I was a toddler then wish I could have been a teenager at that time. There will never be another group as great as the Beatles.
I was 6 or 7 when The Beatlesmania invaded
USA. I don’t remember
watching The Beatles
on Ed Sullivan Show,
but I watched The Beatles
Cartoons every Saturday. 😎
the clearness of video is epic..
So clean more than my smartphone now
That is analog for you
Film! Kicks the crap out of digital any day of the week.
StopMe_TagSen ~ Yeah,
if you haven’t already seen before,
Check out the amazing documentary footage called =
“THE WINGED BEATLE”
The extended version is the best & one of the best films about The Beatles to date and is a must see for everyone that is a true fan of the Beatles
YOU WON’T BE DISAPPOINTED
ENJOY
Because it's black and white
Paul and Ringo probably still hear that screaming when they're trying to sleep at night
😂😂😂😂
Grandparents today: what are you guys worked up about, he’s just a musician
Grandparents then:
It's the Beatles oxo

Ils étaient beaucoup plus que des simples musiciens, ils évoquaient le changement, l'ouverture sur autres choses, le rêve accessible et une nouvelle façon de vivre et de penser ! Ces quatre jeunes hommes âgés respectivement de 24, 24, 23 et 22 ans sortaient des sentiers battus par leurs originalités. Le très jeune duo Lennon & McCartney était déjà à l'aube de signer les textes et la musique sur un album de chansons entièrement originales ! Du jamais vu à l'époque ! Ils étaient déjà une inspiration pour tous les autres artistes ! Dans une Angleterre où la rigidité de ses institutions régnaient en maîtres, ils ont surgit, tels des extra terrestres, en brisant toutes les règles établies du show business ! Ce n'est pas le fruit du hasard si le catalogue de la musique populaire des années 60 et 70 leur appartient. Pour saisir l'ampleur d'un phénomène, il est essentiel de mesurer tous les aspects liés au contexte sociologique et historique d'une époque. Ils sont à l'origine de l'invasion britannique qui a explosé au pays de l'oncle Sam. Ils ont pavés la voie aux Stones et autres groupe Anglais de l'époque. Non, ils n'étaient pas que de simples musiciens, ce quatuor était le messie pour sa génération et les suivantes...
@@acedd100 Absolument
Paul McCartney's step sister went to my Primary School in Lower Heswall. He came to take her home one day and the place just erupted. She walked right up to him and kissed him on the cheek. What a moment for her. We boys were like 'nothing to see here...'
Is that true ?
@@nickjones2813 Yes indeed. Gayton Primary school ca. 1968. Paul McCartney's step mother (married to Paul's father, Jim McCartney) lived just around the corner in Baskerville Road.
@@noelmajers6369 wow that's great and that would've gathetherd a huge crowd I guess
@@nickjones2813 Ruth McCartney
Was he good looking as he looked in these footages?
One year prior the idea of a British band dominating the American charts was simply unheard of.
Yeah it went from British artists only ever having had one number 1 record in the States to The Beatles holding the top 5 positions in the American chart. Followed by the British Invasion.
I'm 18 and I'm in love with The Beatles specially John since I was 11, and I'm the only grandchild of the family that actually scream when watching anything about them, my grandpapa is proud of me, he said "thank God there's a mini me in this house" hchjxjdjdidjf OMGGG I LOVE YOU JOHN!!!!! Sorry couldn't help myself :3
I hope the spirit of the Beatles can be transferred to future generations!
Im 19
@Homer Simpson so youre a girl right ? lol
@Homer Simpson indeed hahaha
woah we are same how it happened? :)

Clearly em omg yes he’s like a puppy

Yees!! 💕💕
The best band and the most charming ever. They never get old!
The Beatles will never die
They Already Are.
@@airyanawaejah2323 thats sadly true nowadays
When Ringo says sarcastically "We love England" and rolls his eyes LOL 4:21
@Rosida Andriyana That's genuine.
I think you're missing the point of what he's rolling his eyes for. He's doing it at the guy asking the dumb question, not "we love England"
America is like a box of tinsel. You open it and there's more tinsel.
Ringo meant the crippling taxes like 45%- 50% they had to pay in the UK and later lesser,they earnt their MBEs. 🏴🏴🏴💷
@@gingerbaker4390 what
Such charismatic young men of their generation. My late father introduced me to them. I'm 27 and I love em to bits

@@khalylkaizyap7259 Hello. Can we be friends?
People said BTS' fans are crazy but this one was the most...
@@raimundussili1901 yah people say that bts are better than beatles like whatttt LMFAO. No technology or social media back in the days and they are still big. Greatest formed of men of all time no cap
This is scary and amazing at the same time , how a band who exists in a time in history that doesn't exist technology had this type of fans
What about TV? Isnt it a technology?
Tv, records, radio newspapers, magazines, movies. There was plenty of technology
The rarity made those times even better!
@@vientonoreste9008 There were only 3 channels in the USA back then. The Beatles were on all 3 of them.
Wow that’s scary and amazing at the same time ... I don’t know how they did it
The Beatle Queen neither did any of them
Hi.. which Beatle's queen you wanna be? As your name says so.

Please don't break it.
i didnt believe it when my dad said that beatles were the biggest most popular band the world has ever had and no one had beat their popularity to this day... and I saw this video..........
The BeaTles even made the police laugh. They brought joy to the masses.
All these years later and I still cannot believe Beatlemania!
Why cant you believe Beatlemania?
Yes and when they broke up they went there own separate ways and became successful. " And when you hear one of there songs who do you think of "
I dont care what people say about john, to me he still the most fascinating human creature ever lived. I dont care if he straight, gay or bisexual he got a beautiful soul. His smile bring so much joy. No wonder why Paul says he john’s no1 fan because he just beautiful and fascinating.
Y tuvo un mundo dificil en su cabeza traumas y aun haci se supero Pero repitio su propia historia con su 1er hijo Julian
His smile is my everlasting joy
I'm 63 years old and all I can say is "thank you, boys".
Whenever your parents or grandparents starting that "kids this day" complaining about the musicians/singers craze, show them this video.
my mum was there, she was 12 and she lived, and we still do, three miles from Heathrow. She and her elder sisters were there almost all night. She said it was amazing and insane, and even though there was a crush, she was too excited to be scared. she was just excited watching the boys touch down. i always wondered if it was a coincidence, five years later, she married my dad, who was from Liverpool!
4:20 - Ringo says: "We'd like to go back, we wouldn't stay there, we love England." and then grins. Watch John's and Paul's reactions.
They were so cute and giggly in the interview! Just love them.
And so young!
They were so talented, marvelous, and just so fab!
I love the beatles
"I love the Beatles" - Every living thing that has and ever will exist
aka "The Renaissance Minstrels"/LOL!
Me too
Don't we all? ☺
Yes those bug dudes and when they broke up they all went there separate ways and all became successful.
The guards have given up 😂
Freddie Mercury Lmao
Lol yeah
Lol i saw it too:''v
When you on the front page of the newspapers every day and on the news every tea time every day for years,then you can say i was news worthy,but nobody has ever been that news worthy except the Beatles,they dominated our lives like nothing before or since,or ever will,and to have lived through that time is something to treasure,best days to have been alive was the 60s,the Beatles were the icing on the cake,and watching these clips takes me back to my youth,and suddenly im alive again.
Todays 24/7 "news" is sickening instead of life-affirming.
You're so lucky to have lived in an era with great music!
I KNOW!!!!
@@supneetkaur4944 I WAS THERE!!!!!! Was all of 12 &3/4’s!!!!! The BEATLES hit like a tsunami!!! Just jolted me to the core!!!! And I couldn’t in a million years describe how in love with their music, that I and my cousin was!!!!
lindo comentario dichosa que vivistes en esa generacion
No band can replicate this achievement ... they are really great and became millionaires... look at their witty answers they compliment each other
Most of the great bands from that era grew up together. Fine tuned their musicianship. Beatles did so by playing 6 hours a night at the Star Club in Hamburg or the Cavern Club in Liverpool. 1962-1963 they were playing in a different city nearly every night. That kind of stuff doesn't happen anymore. There are some great musicians individually but having a garage band and practicing doesn't happen much. If you are talented enough most of the time your band is formed through session musicians. I don't see a phenomenon like this ever happening again.
A mucho trabajo si dicen en documentales que iniciaron ganando 7 dolares la hora y pasaban muchas horas a diario trabajando Les costo muchos esfuerzos Eran jovenes talentosos muy maravillosos
This is stunning. What a phenomenon they were.
I was one of the many fans who was at the London airport to welcome our boys back home…it was a freezing cold morning, but because there were Beatle songs blasting from all of the loud speakers that were placed throughout the rooftop, it made it even more exciting, and we all forgot about the cold. 🎵🎵🎵🎵
At the 2:36 mark, George remarks that the Beatles worked with "the audience all around us." No doubt that is a reference to their show, the first American concert, in Washington, DC at the Washington Coliseum on February 11th, 1964 where they played in what was essentially a boxing match set up. The audience was, indeed, on all sides. Ringo's drum kit was placed on a circular platform that the Beatles themselves had to rotate after every few songs so that they could face a different part of the audience.
This thing will never happend ever again, I've never seen something a force like The Beatles did.
"Welcome Home Boys". London Airport went wild.
Bbegwuĺ
Paul and John look eager to talk 😂
EXACTLY!!!!!!
What glorious days , can I go back in time ?? I just did. Thanks for great upload!!
Proud to be British 🇬🇧
Sprang Plays 2 THATS So True Best Group ever in History
I’m proud to be Scouse
I'm not Britsh I'm romanian married in Italy with one italian but I love England!!!❤❤❤
This was no doubt the best part of "britishness"!
Brits got nasty fried teeth,and soccer they call it football I'm American so I'd like a jumbo cup of greese Brits wouldn't understand.
I'm 64 today. As far back as I remember the Beatlemania clips are just overpowering confirmation of what I instinctively recall @4. I still love the Beatles through endless stages of my history.
Fangirls havent changed, have they? It's a bit scary too tbh lol
Really amazing looking at this in 2019
You will be in meme if this in 2019
With Love!❤2020❤
Esses caras mereceram e merecem todo reconhecimento que tiveram e têm ate hj, eles realmente fizeram algo genial na música, nunca mais haverá outra banda como Beatles. Eu os amo pra sempre ❤
All those years ago we were asked to comment to a reporter from Pathe News inside the airport and I had to stop my friend from doing it as unbeknown to our parents we had hitch hiked all the way from Birmingham to welcome back The Beatles and we thought they may see it! Here I am all these years later scanning the pictures to see if I can find us! What a great memory this is!
@Pixie Pete unfortunately no . But fantastic memories !
This brings me to tears, even though I was only 9 years old when the Beatles became famous! My dad yelled at me to get in the house, he insisted I watch them for the first time on Ed Sullivan show! I immediately fell for Paul ❤️😊I would love to go back and relive watching them with my beloved father. He loved them too, surprised me cuz my dad was strict military back then. I can imagine the reaction our elders had back then! I have loved the Beatles ever since that night. I believe they changed the world for the better! ❤
😀
I was only six in early 1964, but even at that age I could feel all the excitement stirred by the Beatles, because at that age you more or less take your cue from the older kids, and older kids, especially the girls (i.e., my friends' big sisters) were going crazy over them. Even the younger grown-ups, like my parents (29 and 31 at the time), liked the Beatles, especially my father, because he owned a club (a bar) and Beatle music was really good for business.
girls go crazy for him back in the day
Awesome...
"what money?" Lol
It's true. When they first started their manager Brian Epstein would only pay them a small weekly allowance and "safely held" the rest for them (unlike their later manager Allan Klein who basically just stole from them). Then when the money finally started filtering through HMC charged them a shedload of tax (including a "supertax" of up to 95%!!!) which led to George writing the song 'Taxman'. As they later said, "Everyone's making money off the Beatles except us".
Like the man said: "Back when income tax was all we had.."
@@brucelamberton8819 I think Brian Epstein saw something lucrative in them. Surely he was paid and even George Martin. In the end they all made out okay. But thank you George and Brian for letting us all know them. Loved their awesome sense of humor. They were so quick.They were CHARMING.
all the Bosses & the Producers just laughed in the back ground
and now pauls a billionare
Meu Deus o q esses caras fizeram no comportamento dos jovens,uma verdadeira revolução eles fizeram,1 verdadeiro fenômeno mundial jamais haverá outro fenômeno igual a eles.

The best thing is their music playing in the background, it fits with the video perfectly
2019 still the best ever band
I'm getting so excited just watching this.. I was 7 years old then and was so excited then too!!
4:16 “ is there any intention for you to go back to America”. Who knew what was to come.
The fan girls before was bit scarier haha
-love the Beatles
we will never see this today
Holy crap that looked dangerous there at the end.
3:46 "what money?"
the synchronization, cause they've been together now for 40 years
3:46
A couple years earlier they were struggling in small dingy clubs. Then came the Lennon/McCartney hits and the stage magic.
Don't forget having a well respected manager and a much better drummer. 😏😉
Awwww seeing fab four like this brings me smile...
Look at John and Paul’s reaction when Ringo rolled his eyes over that dumb question. Ringo’s still trying to be nice after that😂
A moment in earth’s history x
Eeyup! 2024 marks sixty years since Beatlemania swept America, The Beatles came to America and began the British Invasion, and when they appeared and performed on the Ed Sullivan Show.
Im not born in beatles era..but i really love them and im really fan of them and their songs until now 💗
Nunca mais teremos nada igual. Nunca. Beatles forever !
Verdade.
Bem provável.
Realmente, esses caras foram únicos, isso só acontece uma vez na vida. Outras boy bands até que tentaram, mas ninguém se iguala... Beatles Eternos.
They look so overwhelmed when they got off the plane…SO CUTE!🥰🥰🥰
Marvelous Beatles , marvelous.
It also proves who all of them were loved equally. Even in interviews all of them could talk and god, they did talk. So this silly stories we read today that John and Paul overshadowed George is pure lie. They were always Ringo, John, Paul and George. No other band was like that.
I just love them oxo.
love everything about this
Never seen anything like this....in this lifetime.
