Did anyone else hear the collective sigh of relief when Gabe said he liked it? Jeez, the tension! Thanks guys
This has to be one of the Beatles best songs, one of the best songs of the 60s, and maybe one of the best songs ever made.
Also, from somewhere near the end of their early period, whoever wrote the song also sings the song, unless it was Ringo most of the time. Ringo's voice is probably the most easily distinguishable, it's a lot deeper and has this country-ish twang to it. Paul did that middle section in this song, John did the rest. I got incredibly into The Beatles in 2022, to the point where I looked up who did what vocal parts on which songs so I could easily pick up on their voices and recognize them.
You have made my day already! I was born in Blackburn and it's team, Blackburn Rovers has a fanzine called 4000 holes.....the 4000 holes refers to a paper commenting on the potholes in the town
This is a really good example of a Lennon-McCartney, John did most of the first section, with some suggestion from Paul and Paul made the middle section, it was his idea to have the chaotic orchestra.
The first sections and the last section were sung by lennon, the middle part, after the crescendo, was McCartney.
The song that Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys was stunned by and was part of the reason for his hibernation.
You're thinking of Strawberry Fields Forever.
@@Y-two-K I'm not.
Depression, more like it
Yes, Nick, you are correct. Lennon sings the first and last part, McCartney the middle section. In fact, it was originally written as two separate songs, epitomising their respective styles, and the joined with the orchestral bridge. For me, that’s one of the reasons it’s my favourite Beatles song of all time. And it’s a good reminder of the difference between their two styles, as is Penny Lane/Strawberry Fields.
When released in 1967, every listener’s jaw dropped with that final sustained piano chord -which ricocheted around the world. Every human who’d ever had access to a piano as a child, had fooled around/seeing how long that damper pedal (sorry, I’m not a pianist)😉 could sustain a note or chord - no one had ever recorded that before.
It came from the simplest curiosity and exploration, yet as used in this track it also connotes a finality, an infinity, and especially with that moment of silence before - an atom bomb, a supernova …
It’s childlike, human, and cosmic, all at the same time.
The greatest art almost always has more than one meaning, simultaneously.
First two verse and last verse were John Lennon, the middle verse was Paul McCartney.
I have added alternative lyrics to Beatles songs for years and not one word of thanks from any of them.
It's one of their best songs
It IS their best song!
very imporant that he likes this song, its maybe their most profound
Who remembers sitting around the record player in the dark with friends when this came out?
Guys- there’s a beautiful new cartoon vid out for their Come Together! ❤
I grew up listening to The Beatles thanks to my dad and his reel-to-reel and kick ass speakers! He also played Blood Sweat And Tears and Pink Floyd. Mom listened to Led Zeppelin, Simon And Garfunkel and The Carpenters. To this day, I still love and listen to these great bands. Great reaction, you'll NEVER tire of The Beatles. Or any band that l have mentioned.
John was all of it except the bit in the middle.. "Woke up, got out of bed", which was Paul. Gabe is 95% converted.
@@autistickakarot sorry, I was only speaking about the vocals my friend as Nick was asking about it but good comments on the collaboration. Cheers
@@spreet65 ah, sorry. The perception of this song really bothers me sometimes.
Yep! They were all stoned😊still love listening to this amazing song "Saturday morning heading into Bournemouth upstairs with a nice little joint way back in the sixties 😎✌️those were the days.
OMG, you guys slay me. If you want to know more about the song, all you have to do is search in Wikipedia by entering the song title. A half scroll brings you to the 'Background' section, which tells you exactly what you're looking for.
In the mid 60's we had pirate radio ships around the coast of the U K and in 1967 the government closed them down . August 14 RadioLondon played this as their last record.
Many people over here remember that day as if it was yesterday.
The station's final hour is available on CZcams
That’s super cool I’ll look that up thanks ✊🏽😎
John’s voice is amazing!!
When The Beatles were recording this and the rest of the album in No 2 Studio Abbey Road Pink Floyd were in Studio 3 recording their first album.
Oh, what a time for timeless music!!!
Yes, and one day Pink Floyd visited the Studio 2 while the Beatles were recording some Sgt. Pepper’s songs. When they went back to the Studio 3, they discarded most of their recordings and started from the beginning again
@@ottocarson is that a fact?
@@bwana-ma-coo-bah425 Yes it is
@@ottocarson where can this fact be verified, send me the link please. I want it for my records. I am doing a study of the beatles at the moment.
A Sublime, a mega creation. The story is so emocional told, it just mesmerize me. Geniuses at work.
Thing I love about this song is it's meant to be critique of the modern world mixed with hope, ending with a nuclear explosion John wanted to replicate "the sound of the end of the world". Point was to invite us to ask, what kind of a world do we want to live in? John's parts reflect on what we consider important, the triviality of wealth and position, while Paul's parts represent people just going about their business, not really stopping to think about what's going on. In the middle of it all, they invite us to "turn on" - i.e. wake up to what really matters in life. Mix of the avante garde art movement of the 60s, Picasso's anti-war painting "Guernica", and psychedelic-flavoured love. It's not just a great song, it's one of the most important artistic statements of the 20th century. Love it.
It Lennon and McCartney. Lennon starts and ends the song, McCartney is in the middle with the switch up “Woke up, fell outa bed, dragged the comb across my head..” it’s such a great song and good collaboration of their different styles ❤
So this is a top tier Beatles song for sure, but I’m not a huge fan of of the video, I think the visuals distract your attention away from the sentiment of the lyrics in my opinion, but I did once see a video to this that someone done, that was a anime portraying all the elements in the song, and that was amazing, unfortunately I can’t find it anywhere. It was most definitely John singing the first part (the news reports) and then Paul sang the bit about a man in every day life and then back to John.
Nice review guys
It's Lennon. McCartney does a couple lines. 4000 holes in Blackburn, Lancashire. They had to count them all!
one thing that made the beatles so fun and interesting is their progression through the 60s. when i listen to the beatles i almost invariably listen to them in sequence. i discard the few songs i don't like. include the singles that correspond to the albums and just dig it all. its quite a journey. you'll notice a lot of maturity and utter excitement and innovation in their early stuff too. a lot of energy comes out of those early years. the beatles, as a group, were not of this mortal world. thanks for the video.
The videos associated with certain Beatles songs, like this one, were not made to accompany their songs but made much later by others looking to commercially profit...
Usually, the person that contributed most of the writing of the song, was the person who would sing lead. That’s the case with A. day in the Life. It was a lot of John and so he did the lead with McCartney filling in the middle.
Try strawberry felids forever, I am the walrus, I’ve got a feeling, don’t let me down, long and winding road.
First part John, middle part Paul, last part back to John. You have to remember that videos weren't really a thing until 1980 ish, so the Paperback Writer song video was WAY ahead of its time just because videos weren't a thing yet.
There was "videos" back then of the Beatles performing and OTHER groups performing from the British Invasion as well as American artists. They were performances of them singing a song. In the BEATLES case, they were called "promo films" (as in "PROMOTIONAL films ") The term "video" wasn't really used then. They were usually made to promote a new single, and sent to TV stations instead of the Beatles (or any other group, or singer) going out on tour all the time, to promote a new single. The Beatles promo films were considered the precursor to MTV and their videos.
I would say from what I've seen that this is generally their most highly-rated song. It's mine. For no one is my second favorite. Lucy in the Sky and Strawberry Fields are up there. Oh, and Eleanor Rigby.
can you imagine what it must have felt like to know you created this? indescribably beautiful
This started out as two separate songs by John and Paul, but got combined during rehearsals...John starts, Paul sings the bit on the bus, and John reprises to finish. Defo one of my top 5 too :)
The Beatles never made videos they are just clips of film put together many years later.
John Lennon wrote I am the Walrus to troll academics who were reading too much into his lyrics
The scenes in the film often match the lyrics
John Lennon sang the main vocals with McCartney doing the middle part.
Lennon was the vocal and Paul sang the "Woke Up, fell out of Bed..."
Finally!!!
The ending is the sound when you turn on the macbook
Road repairs. The holes in Blackburn Lancashire is true. ❤
This song is about Tara Browne,21 year old heir to the Guinness fortune who was kijjed instantly in a crash while going 120 mph and smashed in a parked car.The Beatles and the Rolling Stones were good friends with Tara
I thought you knew their voices by now, guys, especially YOU Nick!! This is from their Sgt.Pepper album, and the lyrics are from news stories that John actually read in the newspaper, it was NOT from an LSD trip. The "lucky man who made the grade" in the first verse was Tara Brown, who was the heir to the Guinness (beer) fortune, and was also a friend of John's, he was killed in a car crash, and it was in the newspaper.
The line, "I saw a film today, oh boy, the ENGLISH army had just WON the WAR..." refers to the movie that John Lennon starred in, in 1966 called "HOW I WON THE WAR," it was a combination anti-war/"black" comedy (nothing to do with race....a "black comedy" is morbid humor) that takes place during World War I. John's character was "PRIVATE GRIPWEED," a member of the English Army. The line "A CROWD OF PEOPLE TURNED AWAY" (was likely because the film didn't do very well in the theaters). It goes on..."BUT I JUST HAD TO LOOK, HAVING READ THE BOOK." A lot of us feel that he could be referring to the SCRIPT to the movie "HOW I WON THE WAR," in order to know WHAT the film was going to be about, AND to LEARN HIS LINES as "Private Gripweed."
The line "4,000 HOLES IN BLACKBURN, LANCASHIRE, " was another article in the newspaper that John saw. He thought it was very funny that the city knew there were 4,000 "holes' ( POT HOLES in the roads, in the city of Blackburn, in Lancashire, England) so that is why he then went on to write the following line " AND THOUGH THE HOLES WERE RATHER SMALL, they had to COUNT THEM ALL... NOW THEY KNOW HOW MANY HOLES IT TAKES TO FILL THE ALBERT HALL." He is referring to the ROYAL ALBERT HALL, which is a famous concert hall in London (the "CONCERT FOR GEORGE" (Harrison) was held there on Nov. 29, 2002 which was the first anniversary of George's death. It was commissioned by Queen Victoria to be built to honor her deceased husband PRINCE ALBERT. Building began in 1867 and it opened in March of 1871, It's a BEAUTIFUL OVAL shaped theater, look it up to photos of its exterior and more importantly, its INTERIOR. The MIDDLE part sung by PAUL, "WOKE UP, FELL OUT OF BED....." was from an unfinished song of his, But it fit nicely into John's song.
Definitely top 10 beatles song
Probably first prog rock song in the first concept album of all time.
Wow for once this right guy has a positive review, yeah indeed this is a top
Paul’s was the bus part. Everything else was John.
Did the Beatles make these videos or did fans make them out of existing footage? Because bands making videos wasn't a thing in those pre-Mtv days.
I grew up listenibg to the Beatles, firat as a 9 year old after watching them aftwr they appeared on Ed Sullivan, on my transistor radio, then my mom bought me Meet the Beatles album (I still have that!), then A Hard DaysNight, Help etc. Eventually, I had my own stereo system for Sgt Pepper, Magical Mystery, the White Album, Abby Road. We didn't really watch videos. When MTV started, I did not want to have the vibe affected by viseos, so I was never interested in them
One very interesting little factoid about this track, among most other Beatles songs, is that it was recorded on a 4-track machine. This was just one more way in which The Beatles were innovative, even revolutionary. Even though The Beatles had been recording on 4-track since the Hard Days Night album, they were only recording guitars, bass, drums, and vocals, for the most part. They definitely had not been recording 40 piece orchestras. Today, you practically have an unlimited number of tracks to record on, 64 tracks if you wanted and that even includes little home bedroom studios. So to create the magic they created in those days was nothing short of astonishing at the time.
Now check out this incredible cover version by Les De Merle (used in the classic early OC tune "Times up") 💥 czcams.com/video/ZKX6RDkmOKk/video.htmlsi=f1Mb4d91hWzGSqTF
The holes that filled the Albert Hall were assholes...John's assessment of establishment things like the proms
the guy on the right is starting to come around so I've re-subscribed... I predict once he grasps the enormity of the Beatles body of work, he will eventually come to appreciate the early songs... the videos aren't really important because this is the pre-video era, and not much thought was put into them, and there was no way for people to see them unless they were played on a variety TV show like Ed Sullivan or the Smothers Brothers.....who knows when this particular film was made.... might not have been that long ago
The video showed you who was singing....
Why he keep saying he likes the later music yet he doesn’t actually know when or what that is?
Reaxt to strawberry fields
Please play songs without watching the videos - I'm sure you'll get more out of them that way.
"MacCarthy"? Come on, man.
Welcome back Dumb & Dumber .... but where's Karen?
All of these video's are aftermarket trash of various film clips thrown together there weren't Videos in 60's or 70's !
YOU ARE LOOKING AT A VIDEO THAT IS MEANINGLESS THERE WAS NO VIDEO -THIS VIDEO IS DISTRACTING FOR PEOPLE THAT DO NOT LISTEN WITHOUT SOMETHING TO DISTRACT THEIR SCREENHEAD SHORT ATTENTION SPAN MINDS -THERE WAS NO VIDEO WE LISTENED IT WAS 1967
Ain’t ringo he can’t sing like that lol
THERE WERE NO BEATLES VIDEOS WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU GUYS???????? WE LISTENED TO EITHER THE RADIO OR THE RECORD NOTHING ELSE THEY WERE GONE BY 1970!!!! NO ONE SAW ANY VIDEOS YOU ARE DELUDING YOURSELVES I WAS THERE FOR THE ENTIRE RIDE START TO END IF YOU WANT TO BE DELUDED AND DISTRACTED WATCH THIS STUFF THEY PUT OUT YEARS LATER THAT IS NOT THE AUTHENTIC EXPERIENCE
Still not watched a brief history of the Beatles huh? Not like most of your community wants it so you can actually utter something other than complete nonsense when reacting to these songs but each to their own
Very distracting video. It's not official, just bits cobbled together by someone who seems to have no respect for the song.
this guy is embarrassing himself lmfao
