    Such a pretty song! "Till There Was You" is a show tune written by Meredith Willson & used in "The Music Man" play in 1957 & later in the 1962 musical movie. The Beatles recorded it in 1963 & released it on their 2nd album.

      I'm glad you explained that. It was a song that needed to be reproduced. Lovely!

      Their early songs actually transformed music forever. It was very different and seemed to be extra terrestrial.

    The Beatles are better known for how they changed music since Rubber Soul and Revolver, but even their early music, like this song, was also different than other groups. They were always brilliant and better than the rest, even their covers in the first albums are better than the originals.

      An uncle told me a few years back he saw a Beatles cover band in Mexico City who just did the early rock n roll stuff like Twist & Shout etc. Said it packed a club 5 nights a week! He was blown away

      To be clear, this is a cover of that song, Meredith Wilson wrote it for the Music Man musical. it was the 2nd song played on the 1st Ed Sullivan Show Feb 9, 1964, to impress the adults I guess. They certainly impressed Wilson who sent a telegram telling them so. George Harrison played the guitar solo...you won't hear Keith Richards or other back then being able to play so classy an musical, except maybe the Herman's Hermits lead guitar player.

    “Pure and simple” describes it best. The lyrics are pretty, you can hear the words, the guitar, and and a clear voice that’s on key. It’s a “little gem,” and like you said, we are able to appreciate it in the same way the star-struck lover has his eyes and ears open to the beauty of the nature that surrounds him.

    This was also performed at the Beatles’ Decca Records audition on January 1, 1962, which they did not pass! It had two guitar solos by George.

    This is one of my favorites from that album, Paul McCartney's vocals are just so smooth, and I think the guitar was George acoustic, with the bongos.

    I saw that someone else said this song was used in The Music Man. You should listen to it in the movie, actually watch the entire movie and then you'll see the meaning of the song in that context. I won't give it away!

    Definitely a cover of a show tune by Meredith Wilson. What's interesting is that his estate has said they've made more royalties from the Beatles for the song. I don't think they're complaining that Paul sang it. Even if he never sawr

    The Beatles covering a show tune. On most Beatle fans short list of least favorite Beatle songs. I mean I like it but it's not in my top 200 Beatle songs. They did this on the American debut in 1964 of the Ed Sullivan Show and it was on their American Capitol Records debut album, Meet the Beatles. I think to woo the old folks.

  • @andreshernandez1180
    @andreshernandez1180 Před 3 měsíci +2

    You know what you could do? Compare the songs The Beatles covered in their first albums to the originals. One song (two versions, original and Beatles cover) per video. I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a reaction video.

    Watch the video of Shirley Jones (the Partridge family mom) singing this in The Music Man If you want to see how the Beatles turned this song from boring to beautiful.

    • @donw804
      @donw804 Před 3 měsíci +1

      @@fredbloggs6080 It wasn't until years later that I first saw The Music Man and realized this was a cover version. (I was 10 when Meet the Beatles came out). Perhaps because I only knew it from their cover, I was not enthusiastic about Ms Jones's slow and near operatic rendition.

  • @thomastimlin1724
    @thomastimlin1724 Před 2 měsíci

    George Harrison made up and played the guitar solo and another notes during the vocal. NOL ONE in rock band was doing that, and most were not able to make up a solo like that and play it with such musicality...George was so classy on this recording.

      You could say the same about Biden. Truth is whichever propaganda you subscribe to has nothing to do with your musical tastes and to say who or why someone can or can't be a real fan is itself about exclusion and not inclusion. It's a narrow minded, elitist, and authoritarian kind of attitude.

    • @jim7831
      @jim7831 Před 3 měsíci

      @bradparnell614 I agree what I said was hypocritical, but seriously, it's not even about politics or propaganda. Trump is a convicted fraud, rapist and most likely only cares about himself. I don't give a damn about politics, Biden, the left, the right. I'm just utterly confused and shocked that anyone with a brain would back him as a human being
